There’s a nice interview up with Todd Nauck in which he talks about his three issue stint (which, who knows, may be more; part of it depends on sales, I suppose) on “Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,” issues 10-12. There’s two pages of his artwork accompanying. So check out www.newsarama.com, and you have ANY fond memories of Todd and me on “Young Justice” and you’re not reading FNSM…now’s the time.

A while back, Peter wrote a Hulk story with Nightmare, and his growing power after a warm day in September, with millions of people wishing, “Please, let it all be a dream…” which allowed Nightmare a permanent foothold in the real world.
Now we have this:
New Study Finds That Dream Imagery Became More Intense After 9/11:
The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, have not only affected the real world that we live in today, but also the intensity of our dreams. Dream imagery became more intense following that fateful day, according to a research abstract that will be presented at the 20th anniversary SLEEP meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies (APSS) at Salt Lake City’s Salt Palace Convention Center from June 17-22.
The study, conducted by E. Hartmann of Tufts University in Newton, Mass., consisted of 44 persons living in the U.S. who had been keeping a record of their dreams both before and after 9/11. The results showed that while dream imagery became more intense after 9/11, dreams were not longer, more dreamlike or more nightmarelike. There was also no direct (“replay”) incorporation of 9/11 content. This, noted the author, is consistent with the “Contemporary Theory of Dreaming”, which states that the connections of a dream, along with the imagery, are guided by the dominant emotion of the dreamer. It also adds that the intensity of the central image of a dream is a measure of emotional arousal.

ADDED at 7:51: Okay…the five, ten, fifteen question thing? Not happenin’. One per person. Those people who posted enough questions to fill out an interview: Choose the one you most want to know and ask that. My fault; I should have repeated that condition since it’s been a while since I’ve done this.
For those interested, over on www.silverbulletcomicbooks.com, there’s a preview of “Fallen Angel #6” on the sidebar. Check it out for the different art style J.K. is using for this two parter.

Blogger O.V. Hawkins made the following observation:
Paul McCartney wondered musically forty years ago, “Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m Sixty Four?”
Paul turns 64 this weekend.
His wife has filed for divorce.
So apparently that answers THAT question.

Well, the New York Post blew the reveal of the end of Civil War #2 before the book was on the stands. Then again, I suppose anyone who actually reads that rag deserves what they get so, y’know, that’ll teach ya.
We, however, will allow those who don’t know what’s going down with Spider-Man to frequent the board without having it ruined for them. For those who do want to discuss it–and you know you do–I provide the space below. Have at it.
