In case anyone was wondering, that video captured the 'miked Waid' fairly accurately. It might have been a little clearer in the room, but not by much.

"Miked Waid"?

Waid couldn't make it, so he competed via cell phone. (Shades of "Full Frontal Nerdity".)

What happened to the Lightning Round?

According to Matt Hawes' little blurb on the YouTube site, his camcorder ran out of juice. Craig Shutt has a summary post on the cbgxtra site.

Geez, Waid can still beat you guys even when he just phones it in...

[Someone had to say it...and since I haven't looked at the video yet, I'd actually be surprised if Mark hadn't beaten me to it.]

Spoiler for a question and answer near the end of part 2 of the video:








While Mark recalled that it was later stated that the Gargoyle was also Mr. Twister (real name something like Brom Stikk [broom stick]), he didn't realize that it meant that Brom was thus the first villain to fight the Titans twice. Mod was in #7 and #17, while Brom's second appearance was in #14.
