The two convention goers never did understand that the value in comic books comes from the joy of good stories and art, not "collectibility".
I resold my CGC graded SPAWN #1 on eBAY. Closing price - $2.79.
I lost all my money investing in CrossGen comics. I never did get to have sex with the Vampirella spokesmodel either.
Todd McFarlane never did have his brain eaten, but he later surrendered the rights to it to Neil Gaiman (who keeps it pickled on a shelf). He continued on his path of folly undeterred.
However, I did derive a certain sense of satisfaction by once again grinding my jackbooted heel into Rob Liefeld's face!
OWWWWWWWW!!!!!
The Zombie did go to Marvel Comics. There were plenty of zombies there, but any brains had left long ago. He remains hopeful.
Where are you Stan? Jack? Steve? Roy? John? John? Gil? Sal? Don? Hello?
Hi there. We at Captain Satellite Productions, in our ongoing quest to help our readers "get it", would like to interrupt this narrative to bring you vital information on...
...Naomi Morinaga, who will be played by me, threereasons-asiangirl1, for the duration of this joke. *Tee hee*
Naomi Morinaga (born March 12, 1964) is a Japanese actress who first rose to fame playing the role of the sidekick "Annie" in the Japanese superhero series SHAIDER (1984).
She has played numerous roles in both film and television since that time. She is a talented stuntwoman and capable actress and she also hasn't been shy about taking her clothes off.
A cool site about her can be found at http:// www.geocities. co.jp/ Hollywood-Theater/ 4413/index.html. Sorry, it's in Japanese only.
If you use a search engine, I'm sure you can find numerous nude pictures of her, too...you pervert.
Captain Satellite is confronted by his Internet fantasy girl Naomi Morinaga!
So...uh, Naomi, why have you manifested yourself here?
Well Captain, I was just wondering if I really make you happy. Are you sure the time you spend staring at pictures of me couldn't be used to get a REAL girlfriend?
Hmmmm, let's see. Will you ever leave me or cheat on me or hurt me or say you want to be "just friends"?
Er, well no. I'm not really here. I'm just a series of images on your computer screen.

Melvin Feebish writes to say, "I was wondering why all of Naomi Morinaga's dialogue was in English even though she is Japanese."
"Perhaps this is because she was a manifestation of the Captain's insecurities about women and not the REAL Naomi? What do I win for this clever explanation?"
My undying contempt.
Whoa! That kind of overanalysis of a dumb comic even caught the Demon God of Geekiness Phanboi off-guard!
