Can we assume the superintendent is a "good Christian"? Being Idaho, "Mormon" is likely though not certain.

Initially, I thought zombies should be banned from schools, but then I saw it was just the comics.

Maybe folks are just sick of them Zombies. I got really fed up for awhile with Vampires, especially indoors. I mean outdoors is one thing but they start sucking up all your air inside (and other things) it can get on your nerves.
Personally though I think The Zombies were cool...

What is it about modern superhero/villian team names that irritates me? The Intelligencia, The Illuminati, etc. I think it's the intentional avoidance of joyfully preposterous adjectives in favor of bland modernity. Well, that's the point: since the 1970s, and real intelligence agencies and their activities came to the forefront (including those we were not supposed to know existed), fiction has tried to move away--slowly but surely--from the stereotypical "comic booky", Bond-ian type group names, which some believe sound childish to today's ears. Names don't matter as long as their purpose is believable and well written. Clearly I'm aware of the real-world implications and trends. My point is that those old names were joyfully bombastic, which is part of the reason many of them are so well remembered. I'm of the camp that's perfectly okay with some aspects of superhero comics being intentionally absurd (while some aspects are topical, tragic, etc.)

Okay, could Galactus consume the energies of Bizarro World? Or would it give him "food poisoning"?

Not to warn of his coming but to warn of his having just went?

Action Comics #1000 is navel-gazing dreck which would be entirely worthless if it wasn't for the Dan Jurgens and Jerry Ordway art.

You just gave me a horrible mental image of what a Bizarro Galactus would be like - instead of destroying planets by consuming them, he would create planets, by ... no, I don't want to say it.
