the rumour got picked up by a yahoo poster. Even if the rumour is untrue it's still great that it's getting so much attention. Gizzy2000, I'm sure you will be overjoyed to find out that the Badass Digest article you loved so much is referred to in the Yahoo article :p

I guess the Yahoo blogger (or whatever he is) didn't want people to get their hopes up either, but I also wish they wouldn't have cited an article written by a clueless internet blogger. Then again, that's probably what the comicbook.com article is...
