- Linkara: This comic is priced at 25 cents. I'd like to think that was an indicator of how much faith Marvel Editorial had in the issue, but it was apparently done as a special promotion. One would think that Marvel would want to promote better material than this.
- Linkara: There's a recap page, but let me sum it up in one sentence: Teenagers have really complicated and crappy soap opera-like lives.
- Narrator: More people have died in the name of religion than have ever died of cancer. And we try to cure cancer.
- Linkara: Okay, just how many stupid things can I count with just those lines? While it's certainly true that religious fanaticism, in one form or another, is responsible for countless death, trying to compare it to the amount of cancer deaths is not only ludicrous, but offensive! Cancer is a disease, and we have treatments for cancer. There isn't really a surgical procedure at the moment for "being blown to several million pieces by a suicide bomber" or "getting stabbed in the face during the Crusades". Trying to compare premeditated murder with a horrible disease is the height of insensitivity!

- Linkara: Gee, Billy, sorry you have a tumor, but at least you weren't made an example of by those wacko religious fanatics.
- [normal voice]
- Linkara: On top of that, "And we try to cure cancer," is just terrible writing! Is the guy advocating that we should try to cure religious extremism? Again, it's trying to say that a disease and a murderous belief system are somehow on an even keel!
