Given that this is also an alternate universe Chicago, who is to say (other than Erik, of course) that this Chicago is identical to the one in real life?

Large parts of it have probably been destroyed and rebuilt after the Martian invasion indeed.

Yeah that's something I wonder about, what with Martians, Cyberface, Glum, Emperor Dragon, innumerable super-freak fights how much city even is there left?
What happens to all the homeless people?

All those monsters in the Danger Zone have to eat something, right?

I just realized how different this book is today -- and how the supporting cast of superheroes isn't as strong as it once was, IMO.

When I started Dragon, Erik had a million cool characters -- Superpatrtiot, Mighty Man, Freak Force, Star, Vanguard, SOS, etc. And while a few of those guys are still around, I don't feel we've got replacements worthy of them.

I'd like to see Malcolm and Angel join a Teen Titans type group, get some all new heroes in there.

Hanzo, are you saying the book has jumped the shark?

I've never cared for the term "jumping the shark." Most people who use it don't even know the etymology of the term. (Not saying anyone here doesn't know.)

I agree that I miss the days of tons of heroes but at the same time, the streamlined cast enables more characters to be developed.

No shark jumping, just saying what I miss from the book before.

They're probably still homeless.

They're homeless or they got a job. The cool thing is they can come back if they work well into the story.
