And originally Superman's heat vision was just him using his x-ray vision to generate heat.

"One Vision" was one of the many awesome songs Queen provided for the soundtrack to Highlander.
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

The first Highlander was a decent action-fantasy movie with an awesome Queen soundtrack (which, bizarrely, has never had an official album release, going on 30 years!!)
The second Highlander was crap.
Haven't seen any of the sequels beyond that.
Never got into the TV series, but it was okay for what it was, and I give them credit for using the same Queen song ("Princes of the Universe") that opened the first movie for the show's title sequence.

The Highland Kingdom invaded the City-States of Jowston in the Japanese video game Suikoden II.

When I see Suikoden, I think of Sudoku. I did sudoku puzzles long before they were called sudoku.

I know it's too soon for another song break, but whenever I see the word Sudoku, I think of ABBA's song "Voulez Vous."
SOO-DOE-KOOOOOO

Trust me, Ibby, you don't want to hear that. I sing even worse than I play guitar or piano. Why do you think I chose a silent, solitary pursuit like writing?

Although I imagine they can do wonders with moobs these days. Moob enhancement surgery. Actually, some footy fans I know could do with moob reduction surgery.

LOL
Thanks, Thoth.
So very, very 90s UK. In a bad way, but also in a way we can laugh about it.
Although, like most parodies of 90s Lad Culture, it walks a very fine line between satire and pandering. I'll bet Mark Millar was taking notes between lines of cocaine.

Robert Louis Stevenson was allegedly using copious amounts of cocaine at the time that he wrote "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."

In a similar vein, alcohol is said to help increase creativity.

BWAH-HA-HA-HA-HA! Every time I've tried alcohol, all it ever does is make my head feel like it's made of concrete, my legs like they're made of rubber, and my body compass malfunction. Now coffee, *that's* a creativity potion right there!

Intoxicated writing can have interesting results, most of which is incomprehensible the next morning.

I wouldn't know. I can't write while intoxicated, because of the aforementioned effect on my body compass.
