	Dave's Long Box: Guy Gardner vs Jim Shooter
		Jim Shooter is a hero of mine not only for his contributuion to comics (both the industry and medium) but because he took time out of his own personal time to incourage me in my career as an artist.
		I think having comics specialty shops as it currently stands is graually leading to the death of the industry and it makes the product less available and less saleable as it is less visible in the public eye.
		Well, if comics were started to be frozen out of magazine stands because they were a pain to handle and didn't bring in enough revenue in that format, I wonder if perhaps a better solution instead of going to specialty shops would have been to simply abandon the pamphlet format and convert to full-size magazines.

	Sunspot (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sunspot is Roberto da Costa, a Brazilian male, born and raised in Rio de Janeiro.
		During this time Sunspot discovered that he could fly, got lost in the space-time continuum when he interfered with the teleportation powers of Locus, was tutored by Gideon of the Externals because they thought he was the next to join the group, and discovered the hideous villain Reignfire, who had a disturbing connection to him.
		Sunspot is a mutant whose cells have the ability to absorb solar energy and convert it to various purposes.

	ScienceDaily: Sunspot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Sunspot research was dormant for much of the 17th and early 18th centuries because of the Maunder Minimum, during which no sunspots were visible for some years; but after the resumption of sunspot activity, Heinrich Schwabe in 1843 reported a periodic change in the number of sunspots.
		Although the details of sunspot generation are still somewhat a matter of research, it is quite clear that sunspots are the visible counterparts of magnetic flux tubes in the convective zone of the sun that get "wound up" by differential rotation.
		Sunspot -- A sunspot is a region on the Sun's surface (photosphere) that is marked by a lower temperature than its surroundings and intense magnetic activity.

	Sun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sunspots are regions of intense magnetic activity where energy transport is inhibited by strong magnetic fields.
		The number of sunspots visible on the Sun is not constant, but varies over a 10-12 year cycle known as the Solar cycle.
		As the sunspot cycle progresses, the number of sunspots increases and they move closer to the equator of the Sun, a phenomenon described by Spörer's law.

	Laputan Logic
		Sunspot umbrae—the dark central regions of the spots—are surrounded by brighter filamentary penumbrae, the existence of which remains largely inexplicable1.
		For the sunspot to exist, the total pressure must be in balance between the region inside and the region outside of the sunspot.
		In the sunspot you have both gas pressure and magnetic field pressure combined." Since the pressure must be in balance, magnetic pressure inside the sunspot allows the gas pressure (and thus the temperature) to remain lower than the areas outside of the sunspot.

	Hellfire Club (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sunspot takes over as Lord Imperial, which was Sage's plan all along.
		This group was presented as secret cohorts of former White Queen and current X-Man Emma Frost, and consisted of Cassandra Nova, Sebastian Shaw, Nagasonic Teenage Warhead (a presumed demised student of Emma's on Genosha), and "Perfection", a cloaked female figure, whom is apparently their leader.
		Following House of M and Decimation, Sunspot's Inner Circle hasn't made an appearance, though Tessa is now a member of New Excalibur.

		With his astrological charts, reports on sunspot activity, entrails of roadkill and a bloody Etch-A-Sketch, he can prove that a cycle of industry wealth and success exists, and that we're currently moving along the upswing of the curve towards a brand new peak, a little optimum.

		The number of stores that are unafraid to sell comics and make their packet by drawing new, non-comics-culture people into the store to show them the good stuff are outnumbered.

		The 8-issue Fallen Angels limited series (1987) was essentially a New Mutants spin-off series, as it starred New Mutants Sunspot and Warlock as the core of a short-lived motley group of misfits (the titular "Fallen Angels"), who were led by the criminal mutant Vanisher.
		X-Force notably starred Cannonball and Sunspot from the original line-up of New Mutants, later joined by Danielle Moonstar, along with later-joining New Mutants such as Rictor, Warpath, Feral, Shatterstar, and Tabitha Smith as "Meltdown" instead of "Boom Boom").
		Sunspot was also a cast member in X-Treme X-Men, from issue #32 through the end of the series.

		She moved there from Hudson 18 years ago, and, besides her son, raised a daughter there who is now in the Army and stationed in Germany.

		It's the belief of several of my peers that the way forward, to attach the potential (as opposed to the actual present-day) audience for comics, is to do superheroes really well for a major corporation who can force them into the cultural spotlight and into new sales venues.
		I still believe that it would be better to shore up the system we already have while looking for alternative ways of bringing comics to people, than to let the entire system collapse and start from scratch once the dust has settled (God knows how many years from now).
		But we still need to clear away the majority of the 80 to 90% of all monthly comics publications that are in the superhero genre.

	Rob Liefeld
		Ah, the early 90's -- a comic book era wherein a man could be a man with grotesque muscles and an anatomically impossible bone structure, and a woman could be -- well, a woman could be a woman with posture and muscle tone resembling that of a man. A confused time, indeed.
		The comic was an instant smash and propelled Liefeld to the status of superstar.
		While mainstream comics are not exactly ideal for an insane amount of character development, X-Force can be seen as the comic book equivalent of a Steven Seagal flick.

		I didn't think this was such a longshot, as that local daily was Gannett's "Today." It was kind of a proving groving ground for the daily color graphics and illustrations and news-bits that would eventually become the signatures of USA Today.
		One of the best places to show off daily color was in the comics section, and they had used other local talent with success before.

	JS Online: Sunspot storms expected to get much stronger (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The next sunspot cycle will be a year late and as much as 50% stronger than the last one, according to a new forecast released by scientists from NASA and the National Science Foundation.
		Sunspots - first observed by Galileo in 1610 - are dark areas on the sun's surface that are about 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than surrounding areas.
		Because the eddies are still anchored to the interior portion of the loop, the sunspots drift toward the equator, slowly losing their organization.

		But satellite measurements show that our local star dims and brightens slightly in concert with sunspot cycles, which range from nine to 14 years.
		But in 1991, Danish scientists reported a statistical correlation between the length of sunspot cycles and Northern Hemisphere temperatures over the past 130 years.
		Coupled with the fact that sunspot activity had climbed steeply between 1900 and 1960, the results led the Exxon-backed George C. Marshall Institute to argue that the sun might be to blame for global warming.

		It`s diverting because there are some neat moments here; uneven because, like many of these comics anthologies, it`s often difficult to choose stories that can be read as singular narratives when they`ve been lifted from long, ongoing storylines.
		In X-Men comics, life seems unusually high in distractions, many of them towering and dangerous and hurling things at you, so one imagines that the X-Men require a good mental scrubbing more than most.
		The most prevalent theme seen here is also the best and most common theme of wilderness travels: graduation, or the `Escape from Authority.` Echoing Joseph Campbell, the members of X-Force wander west because they’ve decided to strike out on their own in stories reprinted from X-Force #71 and #75.
