Loose, I have both the original Marvel Order of Battle and the DDP Battle Files. The DDP one has Flash, Grand Slam, and Sci Fi as E-5s, as well as Ambush. Falcon, Psyche-Out and Lifeline all are O-3 (Lifeline because he's a doctor, not a medic). Ace is an O-6, Gung Ho is an E-9, Cutter is an O-4, Hawk is an O-9. Slip Stream goes from O-2 to O-3, but neither Lift Ticket nor Wild Bill get promotions.

Thanks for checking Lifeline,
Anyone who is still an E-4? Pre-88? I've been meaning to change my Lifeline to 0-3 but I just want a new figure to do it with.

So, front page has a story that Mark Bellomo is writing new Special Missions comics for IDW. Cool.

Yeah, that is cool. I didn't even know he was a comic writer.

He's not. He's never written a comic before.
AFAIK he's only done the sourcebook stuff and thats it. No novels, etc... People are excited because it's Bellamo and he's a fan so they think that translates to "writing good books". If he's a good writer, great. But if it's just because he's a name associated with Joe, then I'll be a little upset with it all. I'm all for a lifelong fan getting a shot to write one of the official comics, but make sure it's one that can actually write.

I'm just hopeful that Mr. Bellomo will use characters that we don't get to see much of in the regular title... that was one thing that I genuinely enjoyed about Devil's Due. I'd like to see Claymore and Low-Light and a lot of other characters that haven't been spotlighted. I'll be very honest, with the exception of the "Cobra" series, the IDW stuff has been mediocre at best.
And have y'all read the latest issues of ARAH (156 & 157)? I have serious problems with those issues. I'm seriously considering dropping the title. I'm really angry. I hope y'all are all doing well. I know I haven't been around much, but I've just had a lot going on.

Alot of people are having problems with the political stuff in the new ARAH.
I liked 156, but 157 was a big drop off.

Loose, I checked and no one in DDP continuity is below E-5. Oliver and Troy, I haven't read the new series yet. What's he doing that's turning you guys off?

Damn I haven't read either. I hope Bellamo can pull it off. Or get some help from a pretty sharp intern.

I'm not turned off, just not liking the political stuff he put in.
He had an extended sequance referencing the arizona immigration stuff. For me 157 wasn't as high quality as 156.
