  1. I'd imagin the best bet for life in our solar system (outside of Earth obviously) would be Europa.

    While this would be true, isnt the moon europa in a Pre-earth state at the moment? And could you imagine what the aliens from that place would be like? On earth its water that can be a gas/liquid/solid, on europa its methane.

     

    Thay would stink the joint up!

     

    For those who dont know, Europa is a moon off of either saturn/jupiter that has lakes of methane on it. Its still stupidly cold up there, but if the right temp for methane to be a liquid as well as a gas. It also rains on Europa, although aparently the rain drops are huge, but because of the atmosphere, they float down insted of falling, much like our own rain.

     

     

    I think you're mixing it up with another moon.

     

    Europa is a frozen moon of Jupiter that is believed to have a 60 mile deep ocean under a layer of ice.

  2. The way I see it is that both DC and Marvel have 'multiverse' rules, alternate realities and the like. In some they change characters ethnicity, sexuality or gender. So when a character is different to how we expect its easy just to say 'well its not one of the shown comic universes'. So as I say, no big deal to me.

  3. True, though he's closer to superhero than Batman is. Constantine does have supernatural powers at least.

    Batman has a functioning moral compass, though.
    Thats debateable. :laugh: I mean more because batman has no superpowers and is a 'hero' not a superhero. I made the mistake of saying Batman was a superhero on a superhero forum and got some right shit from the comic version of ROHbots.Besides, Constantine generally does the right thing in the end. Like Han Solo. :laugh:
    Oh yeah, I got what you mean. The fanboys would possibly get arsey about Bats being a 'vigilante' rather than a superhero, however since he's part of the JLA, I think it can be excused. The thing with John though is that he does what he thinks is the right thing to do. That doesn't always mean that it is - primarily because his moral compass is broken.Incidentally, I think that's one of the things that makes him hands down the best character in comics today. Hell, one of the reasons I write is because I aim to write Hellblazer one day.
    I wouldnt say that Batman does the right thing anymore than what he thinks is the right thing. It all comes down to your views on crime and punishment really.

    I actually enjoyed the film, it wasnt a patch on the comics true, but I thought it was pretty good for all that. Horses for courses I guess.

    I probably would have enjoyed it more if it hadn't laid claim to the title 'Constantine', and then raped the character.
    True enough, but I think they got the basics right. And thats far better than I expected them to, so I came out of it happy.
    He quit smoking and ended up chewing gum. They couldn't have gotten it any more wrong.
    Constantine has tried to quit in the past. OK it lasted about 3 frames, but you know. lol Besides, lets see if he smokes in the sequal.

  5. I've got a feeling Green Lantern will be really good, I think DC comics have a lot to prove after all the successful great Marvel movies, DC's only hits in the last 20 years have been the Batman ones.

    Depends how picky you want to get.Watchmen was a hit.And from DC owned prints you have:ConstantineStardustRoad To Perdition.All of which made significant profits and/or got good reviews.
    Watchmen was amazing, I can't believe I forgot it, one of my top 3 films of all time.As for the others, I'm talking superheroes really.
    Woah there, Hellblazer was a fantastic comic. Dont be putting down Constantine. :p
