The Eastern philosopher. I liked the reading list in the letters pages then too.

Denny O'Neil's Question is my favorite with the animated JLU Question coming in second...I've never read any Ditko Question, but the "current" DC Renee Montoya Question is an abomination...

Here's another question for you all...why has DC destroyed the Charlton characters? I don't believe any of them remain intact with the possible exception of Nightshade...

The Eastern philosopher is more interesting (to me) than the Randian rambler.

After reading all the O´neil Run in the 80´s I chosse the incarnation from JLU. It was great in just a few episodes he became a lovely character.

The correct answer is the DCU version.

As side one, track one of the Moody Blues' sixth studio album in the U.S.

And not that crappy live version that came out in the '90s.

That's actually my favorite version too. That's the version I would write if given the opportunity.

The re-imagining started while Giordano was in charge of DC. He was the boss for the Question and Captain Atom revamps, and Peacemaker as a psycho kiler. The only Charlton character that was characterized close to the original under Giordano's DC tenure was Blue Beetle, wasn't it?

I prefer the originals in all cases, but accept that he wanted to put out series that might do well for the times. Considering that all three series outlasted the original series, and that the DC Blue Beetle series was canceled quicker than the more heavily revamped ones, I've got to say it was probably a good call on his part to go with the revamps. Damn it.

Asked politely and in an open manner

If we're talking about the question mark, always at the end of the sentence, please. And remember, it's either one or none. None of this two or more crap. That's not a question, no sir.
