Lines: 29 From: Mike CiaraldiAnyone care to guess who is going to die? Based on the coming attractions in Marvel Age magazine, it can't be Aurora or Sasquatch, since they show up in #14. So, who is expendable? A few ideas: Snow-bird? Naw, not used enough yet. Puck? Maybe, he has an interesting personality, but the others are unformed enough that they could take over. Marina? There are a lot of untied plot threads conncerning her, but there is at leastr another egg lying around that could replace her. Jean-Paul? Personality-wise, he is the most mercenary, but also somewhat bland. However, getting rid of him would remove one of his sister's powers. (unless she carried his corpse around, I suppose. Then he could be known as Deadman--whoops, already taken). Shaman? Also underutilized, but doesn't really add that much to the team, especially with Snow-bird able to handle some of the mystical stuff. A supporting character? The only steady one is Mrs. Hudson, Guardian's wife, who I admit liking a lot. Seeing as she was kidnapped in #11, I assume she is a prime candidate. Any other ideas? Mike Ciaraldi ciaraldi@rochester
