I was reading a top ten love interests of Spider-Man back up who's who in the rear end of a Spectacular Spider-Man annual some years ago and the Number TWO given her framing blurb actually struck me of a more fascinating choice than his actual wife of the time (if you don't know why/how Mary-Jane and Peter are estranged at the moment thank your lucky stars.) who was number one because it seems she had a pulse, but the turn of phrase from Peter's perspective which did gorge my sadistic appetite was something like "If Gwen Stacy had lived, I probably would have married her instead."

On the other hand, the more classical hand, Penelope waited 20 years for Odysseus, and when he got home, he spent a rough ten minutes murdering the 2 dozen suitors trying to get a leg over on his missus she'd been putting off for two decades with diplomacy.

Back to something less classical, I saw this on Soap the other day Mona from Who's the Boss thought her husband was dead, so became quite perturbed some months later when her until recently amnesiac living as a bum husband returned and challenged her lover to a duel. maybe that is classical?

No one comes back from Za'ha"dum. God bless you Anna Sheridan and your Little House on the Prairie Hotness.

On In Plane Sight last week, a cop woke up form a three year coma to discover that his best friend and parter had been making babies with his missus. Such drama!

We can excuse Ultimate Captain America for not wanting to get inbetween the 60 years of marriage enjoyed by his costumed parter Bucky and his then gal pal Gale something or another (well Barnes obviously.) because he'd been chryogenically frozen and still looked like a... You ever seen the UK version of Heroes called Misfits? They had an 82 year old metamorph who couldn't hold her youthful false appearance during orgasm, which created some truly horrific full frontal nudity on my TV Screen half an inch from post coitus with one of the regulars.

But all said and done Janeway had proprietary rights on that bloke which preexisted his marriage to whoever the hell cares and he should have done the right thing by Kathryn, chucked the replacement and made a play via subspace radio for the love of his life.

It was obviously a rebound marriage.

i always felt a couple of details must have been lost in the translation, because penelope was a mature woman before odysseus's departure to troy, and 20 more years in uncertainty can't have been gentle to her. they were probably after the estate.
 
Oh Guy, guy, guy, guy, I need to go to bed after reading your post, I`m so tired, so very very tired! LOL

Mark should have been shot Fullstop!
