So I’m reading the Avengers Disassembled interview at the Pulse, and, naturally, my thoughts turn to the move “Heathers”.
And the Marvel offices transform into a Cleveland high school. Bendis, Quesada, and Millar are walking around in minis and too much lip gloss, and they’re taking the daily poll on weather the Black Widow is a moaner or a screamer. They play cruel pranks on Kurt Busiek and Fabian Nicieza.
And Tom Brevoort is totally the Veronica, wearing too much eye-liner and wishing he could just write in his journal and sit with Kurt and talk about their favorite issues of TOMB OF DRACULA and why ETERNALS never should have been inserted into continuity. But he can’t, because he’s one of the cool kids now, and it’s all he can do not to scream when Brian makes him pick three Avengers to kill off and say how cool it will be when Venom joins.
Mercifully, this line of thinking stops before I cast someone in the Christian Slater part. Pity me.
