Just finished reading Batman: The Widening Gyre, and as only a casual Batman fan, I found it to be damn enjoyable. I particularly like the flashback scenes. I'm surprised so many reviews I read had butchered it
"Why would the possibility of me being wrong ever stop me from doing something?"
Simiar to DF, getting around to reading some of the back-pile of comics and just finished the last issue of "X-Men: To Serve and Protect". Not only does it further push why we should get Rockslide as a Heroclix but it put a better idea in my head...
It's great that we're getting a new MODOK in the upcoming Cap stuff but I think there's room for a MODOK gravity-feed set.
You could have:
*616 MODOK
*MODOC
*George Tarleton
*From "Super-Hero Squad": MODOK - Mental Organism Designed Only for Kissing!
*Baby MODOK
*Elvis MODOK
*MODOR - Mental Organism Designed Only for Roller Derby !!!
Oh, the possibilities!

I read the first issue, and while there was some Deconstructionist stuff in there that I enjoyed, some of the character portrayals bugged me. Ivy, especially. I was also hoping it was going toward a Reconstructionist angle, as it felt like it was leaning that way, but it didn't.
Everything in comics these days is Deconstructionist to a ridiculous degree, and I was hoping Smith would try something different from everyone else. Instead he just went in deeper with it, and then portrayed various characters in...well....disgusting ways. That his version of Ivy is a nympho who smells like a 16-year-old's bong, kinda rubbed me the wrong way. I should disclaim, however, that I'm an Ivy fan.

I had the same problem with Batman: Cacophony. Joker dropping trow and asking to be sodomized is unneeded.
