Real life superman

blocking a gene that limits muscle growth seems like an obvious way to increase muscle, why hasn't this happened already? And that kid is going to be the greatest athlete ever, unless some nut job tries to kill him. "he's an aboration of humanity! god didn't create him, the devil did!" fucking religion.

I'm in the middle on the concluding chapter to Transmetropolitan and i'm loving it. This seris is amazingly relevent to the current administration in washington. It was started a few years before Bush ever took office and concluded within the last year. Its almost like warren ellis is a profit. These last few stories were published in 2002, and the similarities between the Bush conspiricaies and the story are striking. Fictional president Callahan kills people whose death would benifit his career and bush quite possibly let 9/11 happen for his own benifits to get all the crazy laws and wars passed. Spider jerusleum uses free speach to tell his story and get hidden information out and bush does everythying he can to alter the media and uses "national defense" as a grand excuse. Maybe ellis got his inpiration from Bush, but its just seems odd to me. I've said before that i'm jelous that Bush was able to do what ever he needed to do to get what he wants done. Ellis makes the same point at the end of this book. "Some people want to rule just to rule. Some people pick the wings off flies just to see what happens." (Transmetropolitan, book 57).

No way man. The kid is going to be enormous but useless. Nothing ever good comes of mutants, except to study them. Imagine all the defects and problems that are going to come along with having gigantic muscles that wont stop growing.
