...was about to completely concur w/ you then i saw the words "Black Beetle"...

I take it because you just checked issue 21 and saw the tuppence and also black adam were on there aswell? there's a marked difference between kidnapping stray humans and the abducting leaguer and besides they all seem to share a certain something in common i think you'll find: we have a terminian, an amazon, a kryptonian, a champion of Nabu and a dude coated in metal of an alien ship who's tied to the quantum field, throw in Black Adam and Superboy (who would probably give off the same sortof energy or whatever signatures as CM and SM) and Tuppence who we have a collective Zero idea on how she obtained her powers. Also for a sidenote, Superman probably thought all of them were kryptonian ;)

I think the brainiac/Kylstar trying to determine a cause for the meta earthlings superpowers fits perfectly to give a bit of backstory to the light's competition for who can find the metagene offerred to aliens. As for it being a big eventt not to be mentioned, i give you Lord Naga Naga and Gorilla Grodd kidnapping MM for her help.

As for having two similar criminal activities on in comic and show, we have: the assassinations by hook and black spider on females, we have the team crashing a kobra venom animal jungle operation ran by Brain, attacks on atlantis orchestrated by Ocean Master, and missions given out by non-batman, which ended up delving into the nb's past. it's been done before so there's nothing to stop it now.

@tupka: hehe, comic readers might start realising that "i hate monkeys" is being said more then half the catchphrases that people seem to find annoying :P
