You’re the manager of a fading rock star. Desperate to kickstart your career, you consult a focus group for advice. That group is situated in a fluorescent-lit office building outside Crawford, Texas, and they decide, after much deliberation, that your guy/gal would greatly benefit from a comic-book nickname. Who is your client and what is the handle you come up with?

The obvious is to say Michael Jackson and rename him “Plastic Man”.
Tom Cruise | 3/12/2007, 11:25 am EST
Kid Rock needs to be renamed Gr’up Pop.

I once saw an interesting online site a while back (wish I could remember it) which showed pictures of Paris Hilton alongside comic art work for DC’s Supergirl series where the characters poses bear a striking resemblance. If this is remotely close to the case I’m investing all my money in a Kryptonite factory.

yeah fuckin cheesy……….grunge leftovers………why do you think i listen to Fall Out Boy? Did I say that? NO…….I thought Radiohead fans were bad but Pearl Jam fans take it to a whole new level…..Get a life fuckface
p.s. at least Radiohead makes good music, so their fans have a worthy argument……as for Pearl Jam….um no
Jeff | 3/12/2007, 9:18 pm EST
I normally don’t give a damn about flame wars and such, but this one pissed me off.
Pearl Jam – lame 90’s one-off rock band with possibly the worst lead singer I have ever heard in my life.
Fall Out Boy – Marginally talented pop band with a singer that can sing. (I, however, in no way condone Pete Wentz. He almost makes me embarassed to be from Chicago. That boy is a talentless hack.)
So, in the end…yes, Pearl Jam is fuckin cheesey.
