holseyd, Cool video! Thank you for sending me the link. Really like it. [My only recommendation is to lose the profanity in the titles at the beginning & end. That way, it's more kid friendly & it can be "safely" viewed by more people.]
I got on a big ROM kick about 2 years ago & collected ALL the ROM comic books! I started reading them but fell out of it around issue 25 or 26. I've been meaning to get back into reading them all.
@sidemachine thanks, and i'm glad you enjoyed the video. there's good cause for the profanity despite the rated R nature of the video. it partly had to do with the name of the ROM blog site i run which is something i started about 1 1/2 years ago out of frustration from ROM bloggers who seemed to feel i was beneath their notice. and then there's my frustration with Marvel. one of the most current postings has to do with a correspondence i had with Dan Abnett about bring ROM back check it out.
@TheVisionofComics that image was put together from two separate comic book covers both of which were done by Michael Golden who is one of the best pencilers of all time. thanks for checking out the 2.0 version of this video.
@TheVisionofComics ...'Cause it was an early Walt Simonson cover...I bought two and carefully cut one out with an exacto to glue onto my binder. Don't hate me.
@leaderstragg yep, Marvel no longer holds the licensing rights to print his likeness anymore. but there are ways to get around that so that they can still have ROM as a man back in the Marvel Universe. if you go to the blog link that is in the video description just above you'll find a current posting of a Facebook dialogue i had with Dan Abnett who said he'd take some ideas i had to Marvel's legal department. but i wouldn't hold my breath as far as anything coming of it anytime soon.
@holseyd Could they have Rom in his humanoid form training OTHER spaceknights? I think he's happy as a man now, but the universe could always use more spaceknights, you never know when those stubborn Dire Wraiths might be itching for some payback!
@leaderstragg i see no reason why they couldn't do just that. even ROM as a spaceknight trainer would thrill the fans and that should not cause legal problems for Marvel especially if they tweaked the spelling of his name a bit. i think Marvel are being a bunch of pansy asses who feel like they have more important things to focus on. hence the message at the end of this video. and yeah your right he doesn't want to go back to being a spaceknight again.
@leaderstragg From what I have seen of IKON Spaceknight armor can be removed. I dont know if she can just take it off or go through some sort of machine, what Im getting at is there is room for ROM the man And ROM the Spaceknight. Can you imagine ROM the man blastin on fools with the Neutralizer!

CAN MARVEL bring back Rom? I heard they weren't allowed for some reason, something to do with legal issues.
