Do you think I mind that Walter Disney doesn’t approve of some of these comics? That his estate isn’t entitled to the sweat of the worker’s brow? None of these comics are officially sanctioned, and who cares? Ranked This Episode:
A common in-story complaint about Bobby Drake is that he’s not living up to his potential, like a perennial high school slacker who graduated from high school 60 years ago. And while he’s certainly keyed far more into his powers these days, one wonders whether No. 6 on the call sheet in a young-mutants-in-training book…
