I think Rogue's had his day. But I'm all for a tales of Nu-Earth series, focussing on different aspects of that war (let's see it from a Nort trooper's point of view!). Rogue could appear in some of these stories, but not as a main character so we can see how the ordinary Nu-earth trooper reacts to this legend turning up (out of the blue, so to speak...)

Yup, definitely Superior, they were more like a role-playing game as you carried over your stats and equipment from book to book and felt like you were more part of a big story. Fantastic.

I get as many as I can into a bag - useful for the recent American comics where you can get a 4 part run into one bag so you don't have to hunt around for that mis-placed part (although I seem to have mis-placed my part 1 of League of Extraordinatry Gentleman Vol 2: nooo!)

I'm not entirely sure, have you tried GOOGLEing for it (although you'll probably just get linsk to porn sites ;) , you could just set a pointer to point an address of the memory and then increment that pointer every frame, resetting the pointer when it gets past 16000 bytes or so. You can also increment the pointer on asynchronous input (like when a key or joypad button is pressed) just to make it that bit more random.

The system clock can be used, generally as a seed (i.e. offset this far into the array based on the current 100th of a second)

Golden Retriever, but prefer cats cos they're cuter and more funny (when was the last time your dog fell off the bookshelf and pretended that it meant to, and when your dogs are puppies can you watch them for hours hunting each other?)

Yeah, I'll buy comics based on the writer more than on the artist - anything by Alan Moore, Kurt Busiek, Peter David, Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison (and a few others) tends to get bought by me.

Hmm, script/story for me. First time I read a strip, I usually read the words and skim the art, and then go back and look at the art more closely.
