	Illyana Rasputin/Magik - X-Universe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		As his stay in Limbo spanned the ages, he was contaminated by the promethium that saturated the dimension, and he began to manifest some of the demonic traits that suited the ruler of such a realm.
		Her battle with Belasco, however, left Illyana overflowing with promethium from when she absorbed his demon half, making the next few years a fierce battle to prevent her demonic persona, that of the Darkchylde, from overwhelming her and leading the demons of Limbo to Earth.
		Weapons: Her primary weapon is the article she has dubbed her "Soulsword." A promethium blade which absorbs promethium and channels it into its wielder, granting her an almost unlimited source of power for sorcery within the Limbo dimension, and some power when summoned to her outside of the realm.

	Purgatory
		Comic books are referenced in the show and the idea that some of our castaways are special in some way, just as comic heroes are super, is also hinted at.
		ROM from the comic is both a synonym for Rom being a robot and an acronym for the Roman Catholic Church, which first developed the idea of LIMBO as a means to solve certain conflicts of injustice in papal decree.
		A retelling of the nature of the comic book LIMBO to concur with the phenomenon of the island and a more scientific explanation could well be an answer to the 'theme' that the narrative of LOST and the island follows.

	The X-Axis Reviews - 26 March 2000
		The other says that this is a load of bollocks because Shockwave is an animation tool, not a comics tool, and what you end up with is basically just a really shitty piece of animation not dissimilar to those awful "cartoons" Marvel had in the sixties.
		For a better example of what you can do with comics on the web, I entreat you all to visit Scott McCloud's website, which is full of interesting experiments that may, admittedly, not be the best stories in the world, but certainly point the way for totally new storytelling techniques.
		Of the three Simon/Kirby stories here, two of them have the same basic plot - dimwitted female protagonist falls for dazzlingly exotic man who turns out to be a complete bastard, leading her to eventually realise the previously overlooked merits of the seriously dull and average man she thoughtlessly spurned on page three.

		Although, that storyline is completely false compared to the comics it would be easier for the audience to swallow and not to mention easier for the writers since they don't have to do the whole "Secret Wars" explanation.
		Felicia Harding AKA Black Cat is supposed to be one of spidey's flings and she appeared in the comics as well.

		It was stated many times in the comics that Inertron is an element, and recall that Element Lad often whipped some up on the spot to either use as a shield/barrier or to trap (encase) someone.
		There are a few times in the comics where an alloy of inertron is mentioned, usually with titanium as the other chief component.
		The comic did make mention that Adamantium could some how be cut slowly and painstakingly on the molecular level but that was the only way that they mentioned that it could refashioned after the metal had cooled.

		Marvel had revolutionarized the comic book industry with the "Marvel" style of superhero, who had the complications of dealing with "real life." Never ones to miss on the sales comparisons, DC began copying the Marvel style.
		The wheelchair figure couldn't be one of the active, crime-fighting heroes, because giving him the power to leave his wheelchair to fight crime would invalidate the whole reason to put him in a wheelchair in the first place.
		Lobdell was apparently completely unaware of the aforementioned Promethium Exchange storyline, but we can reconcile this by simply noting that something bad must have happened to Darkoth between issues #39 and #83.

		This diversion allowed Dr. A to swipe a bit of a material called Promethium that he needed to recharge the element rearranging stone that he uses as a weapon.

		These Elder Gods forge part of it's substance, the mystical metal called Promethium or soulsteel, into a magical sword, which Belasco uses to corrupt the souls of other sorcerors, thereby enslaving them to his will, and adding to his power.
		At one point, the despotic mystic Victor von Doom snatches the blade, and uses it to locate the promethium deposits on Limbo, which were under the care of Darkoth, formerly a US operative, who had Promethium bonded to his skeleton by Doom.
		Due to the intervention of Roma, Excalibur, and the West Coast Avengers, Doom is defeated, although he acquires a suit of Promethium armor.

	DVD Verdict Review - Spider Man: The Venom Saga
		It was closer in spirit to the original comics than were any of the versions that had come before, and the series endured until 1997.
		He finally manages to divest himself of his alien duds the same way he did in the comics, by standing next to a gigantic church bell and letting the intense sound, the only thing against which the alien has no defense, do its job and shoo it away.
		I liked the way it brought in all kinds of villains from the comics and actually used stories from issues I loved, but the style of animation was only a grade or two up from Superfriends and the distracting use of computer-generated backgrounds in some frames but not all turned me off.
