in the current issue of JLA (#29), we are reintroduced to Starbreaker, the Cosmic Vampire, who tries to swipe back the "sun-powered being" card from the Sentry. he just sold himself short, because he failed to do his research that the Sentry had "the power of a million exploding suns", while the dork only settled for a thousandth of that. dumbass.

realizing his mistake, he tries to spin the situation.



countless? meh.

actually, if we look back at his original appearance in JLA vol. 1 #96 (yes, waaaaaaaaay back then, kiddies), he even had less! the nerve.

i guess he thought "a hundred suns" would sound very impressive back then. too bad, the League kicked his ass. twice.

* i also guess its an editorial snafu by Messrs Berganza and Schlagman, or they really thought a 'hundred' was weak for this new generation, and saying a 'million' would look a lot like the Sentry so they settled for a thousand.


oh, and here's a kinky portion. i didn't know Hawkman (and this was from Starbreaker's present-day narrative of the events in #96) back then, already knew the term "safe word".

going back to the original tome:



would that sound corny for you, kids? you rather like "safe word"? i guess you do, because you guys are a lot more knowledgeable than me when i was your age.
