    Grapple & Earth Glide

    Hi all! When an earth elemental is in a grapple, can it move an opponent into stone or dirt through the use of its "earth glide" extraordinary ability? Here are the relevant pieces of the SRD: I'm of the opinion that an earth elemental can't use earth glide to move itself and its opponent...

    Hi all! Sorry for missing last week's thread. So, what new comics have you got? Here are a few from my pull: Hawkman #22: He's got anger management problems going on. The entire issue is a long bash-fest. Great art, but a boring story. (2.5 out of 5) FKATJL #6: Funny, but a bit flat. It had...

    Hi all! Another week of new comics is here! So, what did you get? My stuff: Flash #203: I'm really loving the "Ignition" storyline. This issue is filled with excellent storytelling; it's got a cool twist in the "Ice Killings" plotline that took me by surprise. (5 out of 5) Rex Mundi #6: I...

    New Comics, 10/22/03

    Hi all! So what are you reading this week? My stuff: Hawkeye #1: This was a darn good issue. It's got a solid plot, kind of like a modern day Western with a noirish feel. Clint's taking a break from the "supers" scene, but his "professional troubleshooter" nature overcomes any hopes for a...
