We cannot be doing this again. Diving discourse is mostly victim blaming, with a dash of truth about embellishment but that's caused by the NHL's referring which has more to do with game management than enforcing rules.

Not sure I've seen a mayor who hates their city and wants people to stay away as much as Sim. dailyhive.com/vancouver/va...
When asked by Daily Hive Urbanized during the interview on Monday, Sim further elaborated, “As a fan, I want to see the Canucks have an exciting run and make it to the Stanley Cup Finals, and hopefully win in Game 7 in overtime. As the Mayor of Vancouver, I do not want them to play a single game in the playoffs because the stress that it causes for safety.”

I love that in addition to Jim Lee and Rob Liefeld, Jon Bogdanove and his more 80s style was the other penciller on X-Tinction Agenda (1990) and his rendering of the then new hot character Cable makes Cable looks so silly
