[net.comics] John Byrne: God-Editor!

*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR COMICS DEITY ***

In the Dec. 6th issue of CBG, John Byrne is quoted as saying "None of the
stuff you've ever seen in SUPERMAN ever happened, unless *I* say so."
Apparently Byrne is "in charge" of Superman (it's "in his contract").  No
other writer can add to the mythos without Byrne's knowledge or approval.

What's this?!  Is the Son of Krypton finally beaten?!  By someone with NO
super powers?!  NO super intellect?!  And (*choke*) A CANADIAN! (By birth,
anyway...)

Maybe if we can get him to say his name backwards, he returns to Marvel!

[Just kidding -- Supes needs a kick in the pants, and Byrne should be just
 the ticket...]

ElfQuest has been optioned for Saturday Morning TV.  That should screw it up
royally (sorry, cynic mode).  Can't wait for the new "Cutter Crunchies"
cereal to come out...

                        "Hayl, you know an' I know that th' only way in th'
                         world we can get that kind o' money is if we found
                         a bottle of Coke with a mouse in it."
