Official Marvel Index Master List

Now updated to the Wolverine Index. While Comixfan material is being migrated over to CX Pulp this will be the main place to find this data.

I thought it might be fun to track all the Official Marvel Index listings starting with the 1980s titles.  I decided not to list the oversized earlier ones because they weren’t official, I only have one of them right now, and, if memory serves, different printings had different contents, making that a logistical nightmare.

Abbreviations:

ACT: Avengers, Captain America, Thor: Official Index to the Marvel Universe

ASM: Official Marvel Index to the Amazing Spider-Man

ASMt: Amazing Spider-Man: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

Av: Official Marvel Index to the Avengers (first series)

Av2: Official Marvel Index to the Avengers (second series)

Avt: Avengers: Official Marvel Index trade

CA: Captain America: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

FF: Official Marvel Index to the Fantastic Four

GR: Ghost Rider: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

IM: Iron Man: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

MTU: Official Marvel Index to Marvel Team-Up

OIMU: Official Index to the Marvel Universe

Pn: Punisher: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

Th: Thor: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

UXM: Uncanny X-Men: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

WPG: Wolverine, Punisher & Ghost Rider: Official Index to the Marvel Universe

Wv: Wolverine: Official Index to the Marvel Universe trade

XM: Official Marvel Index to the X-Men (first series)

XM2: Official Marvel Index to the X-Men (second series)

I’ve decided to keep the Annual/Specials/etc matter simple and just go with Annual regardless of the specific indicia title of a particular annual.

Full Body Scanners at Airports

I hope this raises some discussion because I feel this is the single most important thing I've written about on this blog.

First off, the basic facts: This year Canada, following the lead of the US installed full body scanners in several of its airports. These scanners use radiation to scan through passengers’ clothes, resulting in a nude image of the passenger. In Canada not everyone has to go through the extra screening process and you can opt for a pat-down instead.

This blog post is not about the radiation aspect. That aspect of the scanners seems to be the most heavily discussed elsewhere and I don’t pretend to have enough scientific knowledge to do more than quote other people, and both sides can probably find some statistics to back up their arguments. Instead this blog focuses primarily at privacy issues.

Privacy is admittedly hard to quantify, and different people require different levels of privacy. Some people are exhibitionists; on at least one blog someone posted they are looking forward to undergoing the scan for this very reason. Other people say they are not exhibitionists but in the name of security are willing to grin and bare it. Others still simply don’t want to be seen nude at all, however briefly, and even if the image quality isn’t perfect.

I belong to the latter group. There are all kinds of valid reasons why someone might not want to be seen nude, that have nothing to do with terrorism. Maybe they are self-conscious about their body by nature. Maybe they had a bad experience that makes them want to be covered or causes them to flash back to the trauma under such circumstances, or both; there could even be some unsightly physical damage they prefer not to show. Maybe it’s against their religious and/or spiritual beliefs. Maybe the thought of the images potentially being used for sexual gratification is unappealing. Maybe they simply feel that what they look like nude is not anyone’s business. I won’t do into full detail as to why I personally don’t want my body to be seen, because that much definitely is not anyone else's business unless I choose to tell them. We live in a fairly free country so the fact that I have chosen to keep my body hidden is my prerogative.

I think it boils down to respect and dignity. How much extra dignity are you willing to give up in the name of a bit more physical security? How much respect are you giving someone if you make them have to choose between having to be seen nude or be given a pat down which by some accounts can get a bit, uh, frisky? I’m not knocking physical safety, but I think it’s also important to respect that body scanners, for some, absolutely do constitute a gross violation of their privacy.

We are told that the images don’t show much and that the images are not stored. Even if that’s true (and again “don’t show much” is open to interpretation), who’s to say that both will remain the case? Certainly even from the classic “rooftop” view of Google Earth the picture quality has gotten better over the years. And some allegations of the images being stored are starting to appear.

Where does the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom stand on this? Sections 7 and 8 are the key:

7. Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.

8. Everyone has the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.

Now obviously there’s room for interpretation. My own interpretation of number 7 is that we’re innocent until proven guilty. Number 8 is even more subjective, as it depends on what you consider to be unreasonable. I don’t necessarily feel that having bags scanned before entering a vehicle that is going to be in the sky to be unreasonable, but I do think that having my genitalia displayed to a complete stranger passes the litmus test of “unreasonable”.

It’s also important to remember that I’ve mainly been focussing on Canada. The US and other countries have their own rules regarding such devices so it’s important that you know the rules of the country you’re flying into as well. The US of course has its own rules about privacy but seems at least as willing to break them, if not more so.

Thus far I’ve barely touched upon the primary argument of the opposing side, that it increases security. But does it really? One pattern that emerges when you look at some methods of attack in recent years (using planes as de facto bombs, liquids, underwear) is that terrorists are quite flexible and innovative in their means of attack and often don’t use the same method twice. So people’s dignity is being eroded to counter a means of attack that the terrorists may well have never intended to use a second time anyway. There’s an interesting paradox about increased security: it makes people feel safer, yes, but at the same time but at the same time it heightens people’s fear for their safety, leaving people thinking they’ll die if these things aren’t implemented. I honestly believe the next big attempt at terrorism will be something that no one will see coming ahead of time, and that sacrificing dignity and privacy for extra security only creates an illusion of safety, and a pretty fragile one at that. It’s not even a good deterrent, as the people who would truly be deterred by airport security would have been deterred by the pre-9/11 system as well. For people on the fence on committing a crime, the presence of officers is usually enough.

But what if you really don’t care about the scanners, if you’re fine if people see your genitalia? Should you be opposed to the full body scanners anyway? Yes! Because you respect others’ need for privacy, even if you don’t share those needs. Because you don’t want your loved one’s bodies on display (while people under 18 can’t be scanned in Canada, again this is a Canada-specific rule). Because you think it’s too much time and money for a fragile illusion. Or maybe it’s because you are a very wise person; you’ve seen people’s rights in North America getting slowly chipped away by airports since 9/11, and realize that if you condone this you are allowing for things to continue to the point where sooner or later a process that does violate you will come into play. And be assured that if you scoff at other’s feelings of violation and then find yourself violated later on, I will still support and respect your own personal needs even as I remind you that you scoffed.

I will never submit to a full body scan, and will only submit to a pat-down under specific conditions (if I consider the reason for the pat-down valid, and if it’s agreed that certain areas are off limits). If this means spending more time on busses, so be it. I am willing to spend the extra time in order to maintain my right to privacy. Remember, the primary goal of terrorists isn’t to kill a lot of people. That’s often a by-product of their true goal, to spread terror, hence the name terrorist. If you sacrifice your dignity and privacy in the name of security, mission accomplished.

Send Your Proxy Packing

When connecting to the Internet from home, you may want to disable your proxy (a third party means of connecting to the Internet). You don't need the proxy at home and some viruses target proxies specifically. Cycbot B is an example of this. So if your proxy is on after an infection, you either have the virus back or no Internet connection. Here's how to get rid of the proxy so you can still browse the Internet after you've had a virus like Cycbot B:

Internet Explorer (version tested: 7):
1. On the Menu bar, click Tools
2. Click Internet Options
3. Click the Connections tab
4. Click LAN Settings
5. Click the Automatically detect settings box on
6. Click the Use a proxy server for your LAN off
7. Click OK
8. Click OK again
You can now connect to the Internet.

Firefox (version tested: 3.6):
1. On the Menu bar, click Tools
2. Click Options
3. Click the Advanced box
4. Click the Network tab
5. Click Settings
6. Click No proxy
7. Click OK
8. Click OK again
You can now connect to the Internet.

Chrome:
I'm not sure how to do this one directly. However, after setting the two above as described, Chrome worked fine.

Hopefully you will never need to know how to do this, but if you do get hit with a virus, and getting rid of the virus stops your Internet connecting, this should get you going again.

Union or No Union

This initial post is short and somewhat stream of consciousness. If it generates real discussion I'll probably expand on these thoughts at a later date, after I've had time to rethink things based on others' thoughts.

A union is neither intrinsically good nor intrinsically bad. If a union is out to help the employee, or foster a positive work environment for both employer and employee, or ensures an agreement is not completely ignored, it's a good thing. If instead it starts to strong-arm people, or act as an additional advocate for the employer (thus placing the employee at an additional disadvantage) or if profit is the primary motivator, or if the goal is to enforce an agreement without considering why the agreement exists, it's a bad thing. A bad union will push an agenda; a good one will try to genuinely understand both sides and promote a happy outcome for everyone.
