Rawnzilla:

What I meant was that with his powers, Pietro runs just as fast as a normal runner. It moves at superspeed because his power is not to run superfast, but to speed up/slow time around him so it appears he's a superspeedster, so while he can do some speedster tricks(Running, the rapid fire punch, etc) the true speed tricks(like creating whirlwinds, etc) are beyond him.

That page from House of Mystery was pretty bad. But I still think the Trolls from Berserk were worse. There were also a couple of rabbits we had that died from infected cuts getting maggots in them that was very very unpleasent. Oh and I love Cyclops reasoning- he just said basicly "There are only a few of us left, and it's important to the survivial of our race that we kill anyone I think might be dissagreeing with me. No don't bother to chect out why there doing that. Mind control? What's that?"
Superman should have told Luthor that Batman is the one who proves what a human bieng can do.

It was my understanding Quicksilver, as with the Flash, has an invulnerability field when he goes supersonic otherwise he'd be killed by the friction, so he isn't hurt by say, hitting a plane or the water.

As for the horror thing. That is just sick. I have got to learn when someone has a link but says don't look. Don't look.

@ Cierdwyn2 :

If you read the issue in which the moment is from, you will see that Pietro got his powers back.

Wow...you weren't kidding with the House Of Mystery thing. Is that book out yet? Strange stuff.
I really enjoyed Secret Invasion, I think mostly because I'm a huge Hawkeye fan....I have been ever since he fought and beat The Collector in Avengers #174 from 1978. I hated Bendis when he killed him and I really hope he gets his old costume back on. The scene between him and Bobbi was great....but I have a sneaky feeling all is not as it seems.

Looking forward to your Iron Man Movie review. It was one of my fave superhero flix behind Tim Burton's first Batman flick & X-Men 2.

Some time back I seem to recall them saying that Quicksilver's powers are not speed-based, but time based. He controls time around himself, which makes him appear to move faster than other people. This is why when he was using the Terragin Mists, he could travel through time. It was an amped up expression of his mutant powers. That's why he can't do the flash Arm fly thing. He's really moving at normal speed.

Judging by his giant hand, I'm guessing the Doc Ock's-tentacles Skrull has all the powers of the Sinister Six (the originals) including Otto's bizarre way of making his tentacles obey him when not attached to his body. So, not a complete loss.

House of Mystery was good because it was intelligent horror rather than Saw-level Horro for the sake of Horror. But no Cain?

In answer to your Nova question: Galactus has his own atmosphere. The board makes the noise from the air in that atmosphere.
