Well I just made one of the biggest blunders of my
life--I bought Marvel's latest graphic novel.  I
figured I could put up with Springer and Coletta's
art, and Dazzler's mutanthood being announced to the
world at large seemed like an interesting plotline.

Boy, was I wrong!  Lousy plot, lousy characterization,
uneven artwork.  We see a Dazzler we've never seen before,
and one I hope we never see again.  She goes home at night and
admires herself in the mirror, nude yet, when she gets upset
or lonely; she falls for one of the most blatantly phony
Hollywood types imaginable, announces to the world she's a
mutant just to promote a movie, etc. etc. ad nauseum.
Such REALISM!

Was I surprised?  Naw....  By now you should be able to identify
the author of this masterpiece--none other than the (in)famous
Jim Shooter, of course.

		Now that's REALLY 'nuff said,
