Leigh said... Pal, we're just happy you're home. Thanks man. It’s good to be home. I look forward to many, many hours of your company. Anonymous said... So, since you are now back in the US, settled in and doing well, is there any chance we will see more MTG blogs from you? I'm hoping so, because I always found your writings to be insightful and fun. I regret to inform you that I believe I am done with Magic. Sorry about that. Unless I win the lottery and no longer need to work, I just don’t feel I will ever have the time to be good at it. And it’s not fun for me or my readers if I’m not at least adequate at the game. Eleven said... Sweet! Looking forward to (hopefully) regular posts (also hopefully) soon. Me too! It’s been crazy. Hope to get more adjusted soon. Tom Darling said... I was clearing out my old gmails and found yours from when you got married. Went to the blog and found you're back in Vermont! Wow! Welcome back. Thanks Tom. It’s go...
There's no way the Living Tribunal would allow that, I'm afraid. Galactus' cosmic hunger is vital to the balance of the universe. His need to destroy planets makes him the face of Equity. Basically he serves too important a role as a bringer of death just as Reed Richards serves an important role as a defender of life. Actually Galactus tries to explain this to Mr. Fantastic in Secret Wars but then attempts to usurp the power of the Beyonder anyway after instructing Mr. Fantastic to oppose him in his attempt to gain omnipotence. Or at least, that is my interpretation of Jim Shooter's ambiguity.

Man, you know your trivia. Even as a massive comic geek I didn't know all that.
