This week on WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPERHERO most of the contestants were
tricked into revealing their true names to the first cute person that
asked.

Lee read 'em the riot act, said no Superhero would EVER do that, and
used as an example Peter Parker, and look how many times he was tempted,
and still would NEVER reveal his real ID.

BTR1701...
He never revealed it willingly but the last movie ended with half of New
York knowing who he was, including all the bad guys.


Ubiquitous...
But he just did it last month...


And fired Monkey Woman on the spot.

Now if only Marvel would fire JMS.

m...
Sorry, drawing a blank. JMS==??

jayembee...
J. Michael Straczynski, creator of BABYLON 5. He'd been writing one
of Marvel's Spider-Man comics for the past several years.


William George Ferguson...
Joseph Michael Straczynski (creator of Babylon 5 among other credits), who
is currently writing Spider-Man, and did an issue with Peter revealing his
true identity in a live televised press conference, as part of Marvel's
current big 'Civil War' crossover event.

To be fair to JMS, I don't think he should be blamed for this (there's lots
of other stuff to blame him for). I lay the blame directly at Joe
Quesada's feet.

Sean Walsh...
Yeah, but JMS has said several times recently that he trusts Quesada
and will follow his word.

I don't mind punishing the master and not the minion, but if you take
down the master you gotta expect the minion to lash out if he's not
taken down too...
