Readers of the Net,
     In the past you have seen or read some of my works that
have appeared childish by Jeff Meyer's standards and
unenlightened by Jerry's terms.  But still I pursue the
standards of these people who know more about these things
than most other people.
     I have been reading the Fantastic Four and would like to make
one observation about the person who keeps knocking off
the villians of the Marvel universe; the "Justice is Served" guy.
Let's go back in time to an issue of the X-men when they
battled against Nimrod.  He was defeated in one sense, but
he survives in the world.  Now supposing that you are this
'killer of mutants'.  Wouldn't it make sense to pick off some
light villians before handling the X-men or the Avengers again?
     I suppose that since Marvel has seen fit to include
a dreaded villian into the mainstream of its magazines that this
might be another case of a good vs. evil concept that is often found cutting
across all of Marvel's magazines.  You will remember that
before the Beyonder showed up there were Dire Wraiths from
the Rom series.  This was a universal threat that (in the end) appeared
in a number of titles.  And then the power unleashed by the faeries
in Thor which changed the weather patterns and affected an entire
group of comic titles.  Could not the robot known as Nimrod
be responsible for the "Justice is Served" deaths of villians
that have been appearing in recent Marvel titles?
     I would like to second the request made by Jeef Meyer that
someone who is reading Captain America summarize what all of this
"Justice is Served" business is about.  That is, the appearance of this
character in the FF had a reference to recent Cap. America happenings.
