These days, seems like all the comics are doin' grim & gritty & ironic. And doing it well. But I miss the old primary-colors stuff sometimes. Siigh.
And following your Dr Who link (thanks!) I find more of the same re their pick for the Ninth Doctor: "Christopher's quite edgy and we wanted to get away from the foppish image and find a more modern hero" ?
DrWho was never like anything else. He wasn't retro, period, or modern. Do we need another modern hero?
