@Retired Pfft. You're old and retired, you have no value to society.


Challenge accepted.

You wanna pay for it?

Please I have other layers of the barrel to scrape long before I get to you.

Besides, it's solved. Morden chose me. Victory is mine.


As if Morden makes the best life decisions.

That would take a lot more work than you think.

I just recorded myself the first few paragraphs of my opening Fantastic Four post. It took quite a while. Nothing will teach you that your posts are too long-winded like being made to read something you've written out loud.


This.

Always, always read your work aloud prior to submitting. Both to catch grammatical errors that your mind would glaze over simply reading silently, and to learn if there are any awkward pauses or long-winded moments that can be adjusted. This is the number one rule of editing and proofreading that surprisingly few people ever do. It solves many issues that plague pieces of writing and is well worth the minimal amount of effort it takes. I can't even begin to count the number of times I've started the proofreading process and immediately caught numerable problems that should have easily been noticed by the author.

Always thoroughly read through your writing at least twice, with at least one time being out loud. It works wonders and immediately makes you look more capable/professional.
All under 35 in this world. And one's an alien. Seems legit.
Here's a better question...

Why in the hell was Lana Lang ever a villain called The Insect Queen? And what series of drugs led to that decision?

Because I want some of that shit.


Probably the same that'd lead to Matt Murdock; Batman.
Insect Fetish...


He just appreciates those big, bug booties.
I look forward to seeing Ambush Bug next.
First spiders. Now wasps. I'm sensing a pattern.
(Which is why if there's ever an Amalgam game made, I'm gonna shoot for Batman/Daredevil. Because goddammit, I will never let the idea of a Batman who has actual echolocation go.)


Ah, yes. Who could resist the temptation of Dareman. The Caped Devil-Knight Without Fear strikes terror into even the fiercest of criminals.
Generally, when you're stuck on what to do and unsure of direction, then the cardinal rule of life applies: keep it simple, stupid.
