Or Dashiell Bad Horse, whose life will be forever changed no matter what happens?

Punisher MAX-For what it's worth, congratulations on getting this gig! It's like writing Doom Patrol after Morrison, but no pressure!
I think I read it somewhere, but you're on this book for the long haul, right? Is Dillon? I hope so.
Weapon X-Aahh!!! Look at that cover. Are Paquette and Garney going to trade arcs like Land and Dodson on Uncanny?
Ghost Rider-Scarecrow? Someone else knows who that is? Way to make the Z-Listers kick ass, Aaron!
I just finished today's Weapon X issue and just have to say you're one of my favourite writers of Wolverine, up there with Claremont (did I just write that? well, it's true). Logan's an easy character to make two dimensional - short hairy guy with claws beats shit up - but you make it so much better than that. The little details like the Unforgiven quip and the the Faulkner, that's the mark of quality! So just thanks for being an awesome writer, your name on the cover of something is enough for me to be picking it up!
I have a question about your "Dark X-Men" story; didn't Norman force Mystique to work on the team by putting nanites in her that he'll use to blow her up if she doesn't do what he says?
That's Norman's safeguard for keeping her in line. But he's not exactly going to tell her that during the recruitment process.
