Lines: 15 Ok, ok. So maybe neither DC nor Marvel is particularly good at doing the science, and maybe Gerry Conway is the least accurate writer in existance, but I still have the gut feeling that overall, the average DC comic has better science than the average Marvel. The only reason that the Handbook of the Marvel Universe even sounds good is that Mark Gruenwald cares. For more ideas on both scentific information and on continuity, try finding an issue of Omniverse (there are 2 issues in existance). This magazine, written by Mark Gruenwald, is terrific, especially for anyone who loves explanations and continuity. b**2 arpa brad@maryland csnet brad@umcp-cs uucp {seismo,allegra}!umcp-cs!brad
