Yeah, I knew that Pax (cheers anyway) I just copied and pasted directly, without thinking what I was doing that's all.

: If you want my thoughts on the issue, you
: can have them:
:
: In short, I loved this issue (it's pretty
: close to the perfect comic, to me and I
: don't think I've been in a position to say
: that very often, I naturally nitpick!),
: Cebulski clearly understands Ricochet's
: character, which is nice to see (he actually
: seems to respect Rico and understand that he
: is more then just a mutant with Spider-Man's
: powers) and Maline's art seems to fit the
: story perfectly. Normally, it wouldn't be
: the sort of art which I like but it just
: seems to fit the tone of the mini series
: completely.
:
: I thought that the recap page was done very
: well, Cebulski writing it in the format of
: Johnny writing it as a letter to his dead
: friend, Eddie (Hornet) was highly effective
: I thought. On the subject of Eddie and his
: death, it's nice to see more substance given
: to Hornet's death, it's nice to see it has
: had a long-term effect (which I hope will
: continue to be explored) rather then as a
: cannon-fopdder death (which is all it was to
: Millar, I *still* consider Hornet's death a
: waste of Marvel's most interesting
: characters, who had a lot of untapped
: potential but at least it now has some
: meaning!). Is it just me or does anyone
: else see potential for a flash-back Hornet
: mini-series though... [ ]
:
: As with the first issue, I also really
: enjoyed the apparant friendship between
: Johnny (Ricochet) and Chris (Darkhawk), I
: just like the panels with the two together,
: there seems to be a great comeraderie
: (spelling?) there. Whilst I'm on the
: subject of Chris though, I have to say I was
: suprised to see him going on a date with
: Mickey (Turbo), I suppose it *does* make
: sense given their time together in the New
: Warriors and I think it will be interesting
: to see develop (especially when Mickey
: learns that Chris has been active as
: Darkhawk again) but it did seem to come
: from left field (not that it's a bad thing
: though, I actually think it's potentially
: very interesting).
:
: I also loved the Ricochet versus Delilah
: battle in this issue, I always liked Delilah
: back when she was appearing in Amazing
: Spider-Man and, having just re-read the
: "Identity Crisis" arc (and more
: specifically I just yesterday read Amazing
: Spider-Man #435 when Delilah fought Peter
: in his Ricochet guise) it was nice to see a
: re-match (of sorts).
:
: Hollow's (or if you prefer the Gen Xer
: formerly known as Penance's) introduction
: into the mini on the last page was also well
: done, I thought and it's going to be
: interesting to see what role she will play
: throughout the rest of the mini.
: Hollow/Penance is a character I've always
: been fond of, since her first appearance in
: Generation X but I really hope Cebulski
: will somehow be able to simplify her origin.
:
: Much to my suprise, and delight, though I
: can honestly say that I really can't find
: any major flaws with this issue which is a
: very pleasant situation to be in!
:
: .....Just to let you know James, if you wish
: to use the coding for making bold, italized
: or underlining words, it's best to replace
: '[ ]' and used ' ' instead..{As you can tell
: by the 'Re-edited' LONERS #2's Spoilers ....
: }....
