Amen brother!

As for the discussion on powerful female characters, I never understood why Mantis was so dumbed down. As I understand it, her role as Celestial Madonna should bring some pretty potent cosmic level psychic powers along with it but she seems pretty low powered. I am also hoping with the recent turn of events in actually making female characters into more than just skimpy outfit wearers that we will see some significant improvements all around. I would have enjoyed seeing Kitty Pryde remain in her Black Vortex state as well.
