: graphic
: novel captured the look of Fawcett city
: & setting perfect ly . Just a city in
: today's world, but look almost as if time
: has stood still. I didn't care for his
: characterization of Billy as much as I loved
: Roy Thomas's. Jerry's version was too whiney
: & too much a brat to me. Roy's seemed
: more hum er ious & a smart xss. Like I
: think
: anybody would be, much less a kid. If we got
: his powers, we 'd go settle some old sores.
: Like Jim Carrey's Mask character did in the
: Mask.I want Cap to be like Superman, but
: with a boyish charm,& a little more
: devilish. Like on setting wrongs done to
: Billy & others.Like Clark Kent did in
: the end of Superman II.
: I don't want Cap to be the Punisher or Gomer
: Pyle ethier.Too bad Patrick Warburton of the
: Tick/Seinfeld is so old. In the mid 90's he
: would've been perfect for Cap. I vote for an
: unknown to play Cap. If I wasn't so old I'd
: love to try out for the role myself. We'll
: that's just my opion.
:
: The Wisdom of Solomon allows Billy to
: realize that revenge is worthless and it is
: better to help people to realize that they
: were wrong so that they can make ammends on
: their own.

: closest to the Batman: The Animated Series
: option. Yes?
