I think these comic book people need to do up something in which Harper is properly disposed of.

Well, I think it should be very evident by now that harper is a Skrull. Or it would be, if anything actually ever happened outside of the U.S. in Marvel-land.

(Heck, hardly anything happens outside of New York. It must be the center of a Hellmouth or something.)

Canada does show up in Marvel, usually in the context of inhumane and probably illegal superhuman research and development programs run by Department H or as the place American superheroes run to avoid the registration act.

Which is really bizarre that it's CANADA of all places that does the illegal metahuman programs. I mean, i know Canada isn't perfect, but it still seems to have a better human rights record thanthe U.S..

Hey, don't diss the Skrull-Canadians! They're just one patch in the quilt that makes up Canadian society in the MU.

What I wonder is when Canada will elect its first Celestial-Canadian MP and how the heck we will seat them in Parliament.

We'll just assign them to the Senate and they can not show up.

I vaguely recall an issue where Reed Richards explains that Manhattan is, in fact, some kind of cosmic nexus point; which is why everything in the universe either happens there or is related to something that happens there.

I'm a bit amazed that they came up with that explanation. Mostly from the fact that they thought there needed to be an explanation. New Yorkers actually acknowledging that others might not believe that New York is the center of the universe is an odd thing. ;')
