This is huge.

Don't worry, my caped companions, I have Rae on it already, contacting him with SaveCoH and the Hail Mary TF.  But it won't hurt to have YOU back her up!

From the comments section, I'm noticing that there's still people shocked to hear this news. Can anyone think of new outlets we can brainstorm in to keep people in the loop? Anything at all? I want every man, woman, and child who ever logged in to an MMO or squeezed the mouse-trigger on a digital weapon to hear about this closure, and how it was mishandled!

Emailed, linked to every website, news article and press release we've ever run.

Do we think sending a photo of my girl parts would help, or hinder getting him on board? ;)

Another well-written article about the demise of our beloved game. And wow, the author even mentioned "Freedom Force".

The entire game's art style was an homage to Kirby.

Oh! For those of y'all who saw Argo, Jack Kirby did those art-boards. How the filmmakers thought the creator of The Avengers and Captain America didn't merit a mention is beyond me.

Probably a time thing. Affleck is almost as big a nerd as Kevin Smith. Who knows? Maybe there will even be a deleted scene on the DVD. :)

I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

I think a photo of your elbows would add hilariously to the narrative.

Oh wait...you said GIRL parts. Silly me!
