QOTD
"My first act will be to demand the surrender of all the governments of Earth, via the United Nations Security Council. You have no alternative. Legal details of this process can be found on my web site."
- Doctor Impossible, proclamation upon world domination... "Soon I Will Be Invincible"
Book: Soon I Will Be Invincible
Review: 4 bill-stars

I read "Soon I Will Be Invincible" in Vegas with Kim39. It's a great vacation read for any (immature) guy... almost as good as packing Bukowski's "Post Office" in the old suitcase.

The book is like "The Invincibles", but for adults. Super heroes (Corefire, Damsel, Blackwolf, Fatale, Elphin, Mister Mystic) and super-villains (Doctor Impossible, Baron Ether, Dollface, Psychic Prime) abound. The book also reminds me a little of "The Tick" cartoon as well. It's super-light and super-fun. Woot!

I was googling for an appropriate picture, and it looks like there was a DC comic character Doctor Impossible (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Impossible). Whatever. He looks a lot less interesting than the book's Doc Imp, and I'm kind of glad the author isn't a total comic book geek. Blech.

QOTD2
"Having accepted your surrender, I will begin the launch of the new Ice Age, the Age of Doctor Impossible. An era of science and marvels and, of course, my total domination of the world."
