  1. "is the best way to display his intelligence to have him tossing out info that most of us learn in 10th grade?  Sophocles wrote Oedipus Rex?!?!?  You’ve gotta be some kinda GENIUS to pull that sort of info off the top of your head (if this was a message board, I’d insert the eye-roll-y emoticon right here)."

    ^Hahahaha! It’s stuff like this that makes me wish I’d bought the issue just for a laugh. I might actually pick up issue 3 IF Cornell & Kirk are doing the Emma Frost story.

  2. Actually, they were at a showing at Stravinsky’s opera, Oedipus Rex, and Daken didn’t simply point out that Oedipus Rex was written by Sophocles but also that the opera was composed by Stravinsky.  He also through out some stuff about the libretto that I assume was true.  I want to know what 10th grade you went to if you learned all of that.

    Also, my wife saw Stravinsky’s Oedipus Rex in Tucson a few years back in their main concert hall.  It was part of their opera series.  I wouldn’t be surprised if it is put on all over the place given how popular Stravinsky is.

  3. i learned about oedipus rex in 10th grade….and i went to public school…

  4. There’s something wrong with my brain, but knowing that Norman took Daken to see ‘Oedipus’ is the first thing that makes me want to read this series.
