Not to shit up the thread, but he should have resigned like Benedict but not before blowing the whistle on those sex abuse cases, then someone like Francis could have stepped in early

Benedict was a disaster for PR

Yeah, he should've done more. As for resigning... well, it's all very well to be wise after the fact, but if he HAD resigned then it doesn't necessarily follow that Francis would've been a done deal.

Remember, Benedict XVI was the first Pope to resign since Benedict IX, a good 965 years and nine Benedicts ago. Also, the OFFICIAL reason was that he was 86, which is fair enough. They'd already had one Pope dying after a sex scandal, they sure as shit didn't need another one.

Yeah, there was a reason I only did two tiny Silver Age stories today.

Incidentally, a new thread will be imminent.

Jim Shooter's a nice Catholic boy which explains this and the Mother Teresa issue (and probably Heroes for Hope).

I seem to recall Marvel also had a deal with Spire Publishing (as founded by Al Hartley, who made THOSE Archie comic books). And Heroes For Hope was part of that whole "throw money at Africa and hope it solves everything" phase the 80's went through.

Paul Coker, Jr.'s still around, as well as Angelo Torres and Mort Drucker but those two are retired.
