Hey guys,

My son Matt is about to turn 5 years old next month. And, over the past couple of years I've gotten a kick out of seeing him follow in my geeky footsteps. He loves Star Wars and, of course comic book characters, via comics, cartoons and YouTube videos. He's always asking me how so-and-so became a hero or got his powers. But, there are moments I think I've given him too much geek, lol. For instance, he'll hold up his Iron Man action figure and say shaking his head, Iron Man's not DC, right dad? Oh, and he says that this Halloween he wants to be The Question. How's that for not your usual kid's request! Now, I have a new nine month old boy named Joaquin. I'll try not to go too geeky on him! Ha.

Don't change anything, you're doing great! The fact that your kid wants to be The Question for Halloween seals it. As long as he doesn't want to be Rorschach I think you're ok. Rorschach is way to dark for a kid! Let the cynicism come in time. And you named him Matt.....his middle name isn't Murdock is it? Wink

His middle name is Michael. Actually his name is Matteo Miguel, but that's the same thing as Matthew Michael.

Can't believe that kid is 5 already! And that you've had another one. Time flies when you're having fun...
