So once again credit goes to Graeme McMillan and the commentators over at Newsarama for filling today with bloggy content. Apparently they've started a new internet meme expressing just how bad ass Mark Waid is.
Based upon rumours popping up over at CBR, apparently claiming that Mark Waid was fired as a DC editor under aggressive circumstances, the jokes are flying around that Waid would kill you just as quick as write you a comic. Here are some of my favourite Excerpts:
Mark Waid once didn’t like how a comic was inked, so he bought three gallons of ink and force fed it to the inker.
-Comment by Jason M. Bryant
Mark Waid knows the Anti-Life Equation. And Darkseid doesn’t.
-Comment by Confirmed Coyle
When Jesse Quick lost her virginity, Mark Waid found it and put it back.
-Comment by Confirmed Coyle
Mark Waid can make Mephisto forget about the Spider marriage.
-Comment by Dave
Before he met Mark Waid, Alan Moore’s hands were steady enough to shave himself.
-Comment by Jason M. Bryant
The real reason Mark Waid left Flash? Wally West couldn’t keep up.

A Clever Ruse? One More Time
So after reading a rather intruiging series of posts on the bendis board, collected rather brilliantly Newsarama's Graeme McMillan here, I have a new idea.
What if, just what if with me here Marvel-ites, the whole OMD/BND thing is a clever ruse to view spider-man in a what could be different scenario before returning us into the living hell that was Peter's life before a deal with Mephisto. I mean honestly, could you imagine both the joy and dismay of fans and creators alike (let alone the twisted happiness brought across Mephisto's face) if suddenly around a year from now we see Peter living this happy and amazing life on his own before BAM! Suddenly he's back to May dying, trying to hold together his marriage, and everyone knowing exactly who he is. Honestly, what if this suddenly happier lifestyle he's living gets thrown out the window and the fans all get what they've been begging for, the old continuity of Spidey. I wouldn't put it past Joe Q, he has been known to show a rather twisted mind for circle compositions. Furthermore, it could definitely sink in with certain theories about Steve Rogers and others. I know I for one would give the story far more credit if they messed with my comic emotions so well. So what do you all think, is Joe Q an evil comic genius, playing with our hearts like a mad puppeteer? Or, is he merely to be taken at face value? If thats the case Joe, you still have sometime to come off as incomparable in the comic market with such an amazingly near-unforseen twist that could captivate us all.
