everything about loeb is garbage, i dont feel sorry for him...it seems like he is being punished by the muses in life.
it seems more often then not modern writers write characters based on what they see in other mediums.
hypothetical example: oh that looks cool i think i'll put it in my book.. forgetting or out right not knowing character history or he doesnt know the character doesnt possess that particular weakness and its bn tried already. yet, under a certain writer it will work b/c he saw it in a movie. where the movie version of the character is weaken nor is it canon.
example:
wolverine bullet to the head ko..
MU/DCU superman hammer grab block
