Lol. Yeah, gotta love how one writer makes one character uber-powerful and another makes them ridiculously weak. But yeah, it makes sense that a being who's strong but also can turn into mist and resistant to mind control would give any particular team a hard time.

I never really love the Romitas art that much, I like Jr. more than Sr. though. I always liked Sienkewicz quite a bit, and Silvestri's newer stuff is amazing. I think maybe his older stuff was nowhere near as good mainly because they didn't usually have a good inker for him.

Just wondering, by why do people call the brown togs a "Clan Yashida" costume? I have not been aware that it's tied specifically to them.

Superb idea!

I agree that his expression is totally neutral. However, I like that, if only because we can still dremel out previous heads (which I have been stockpiling like crazy for many years now) to fit on the new figure. Problem solved! :^) I will have 1 figure of him on display, with 15 swappable heads in storage in case I feel like switching. lol

I for one would love that. We can only hope.
