My Halloween

seriousficThe good - I saw a kid in a motorized wheelchair dressed in a Ghost Rider costume. Black leather, white facepaint, even had his hair stylized up and dyed red like flames. All in all, it was a more satisfying visual experience than the Ghost Rider movie.
The bad - There was also a kid in Mandalorian armor... with a lightsaber. Umm, HELLO? Jango Fett was a bounty hunter with no evidence of Force powers. Boda Fett, his clone, HUNTED the Jedi. Why would either of them have a lightsaber? Sure, you could say this is a MANDALORIAN JEDI, but at that point you're just being an asshole. What's next? IG-JEDI? Jedi Master Lando Calrissian Jr. and his harem of Twi'lek apprentices? No, you can't go any higher than that, because a Mandalorian Jedi is the height of douchery. Consider that truth bomb DETONATED.
Also, I wrote about a villain who patches his own body by using other people's "parts". Not the newest conceit, no, but I did write in graphic detail about him plucking his own eyeball out with a surgical instrument. It'll probably hold the title of grossest thing I've ever written for all time, unless I have to write Clark/Lana for a challenge or something.
