> I say you charge them sig charges instead of minor, with a sliding scale
depending on how massively over powerful it is.  So having Spidey's spider
sense wouldn't cost much, but having Hourman's ability to control time costs
a whole lot.  You see why most comic geek bookworms prefer Batman to
Superman, he's more cost effective (and saves space.  Who needs The Hound of
the Baskervilles, and a manual on Karate, and a dozen other books, when
you've got an issue of Detective comics for you're Book Learning needs?)

Hey, what a great idea...somebody could use all of those "illustrated
classics" comics--the guy pretty much has access to all of the classics,
_and_ Batman and co.  And I hear those illustrated classics go for a pretty
penny these days, thus beefing up the price of the collection.

bringing the comic..."
