I think at this point he had done everything he wanted to on the title and was having trouble finding a writer he liked for the title. <br /><br />I know Shooter didn’t create Tigra, but I think he had ideas for her as an Avenger that did not necessarily carry over to Roger Stern. Shooter seemed to write her much better.

According to the cover the story was called "The Sirens Of Kronos" and they are giving Ghost Rider a hard time in the foreground while the Albuquerque-bound nuclear missile lifts off in the background!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-34045672231471341432018-02-13T19:47:45.814-05:002018-02-13T19:47:45.814-05:00Very nice observation on the Angel/GR confrontatio...Very nice observation on the Angel/GR confrontation, Warren.<br /><br />Colin, thanks to your question, I read up a little on Albuquerque out of curiosity. It has a long history, and seems like a great place to put down roots--and it's also host to an international hot air <a href="http://www.balloonfiesta.com/" rel="nofollow">balloon "fiesta"</a> every year!<br />Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-83899873290304313752018-02-13T19:27:33.710-05:002018-02-13T19:27:33.710-05:00Thanks CF.

I kinda like the imagery of the story - the angel defeats the demon through nonviolent means.<br /><br />Though that doesn't prevent Thor looking like a boss, either.<br /><br />Colin: I feel a great deal of pity for the fact you reached the age of fourteen without hearing how Bugs should have turned left at Albuquerque. ;)Warren JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11743987856127631574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-90454466618966713852018-02-13T08:27:48.264-05:002018-02-13T08:27:48.264-05:00It was in a 1980 issue of Ghost Rider that I first...It was in a 1980 issue of Ghost Rider that I first heard of Albuquerque - I remember thinking "is that a real place?" because to my clueless 14 year-old mind Albuquerque didn't sound American (!!)....anyway, in the story there's a nuclear missile aimed at Albuquerque or something (it was a long time ago - I forget the details).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
