I’d like to think that my style is very distinct from Dr. Haus’ mainly because:

1.) I include overt references to the Wu-Tang Clan, and
2.) At least 50% of my reviews are intelligible.

(I kid, Dr. Haus! Please don’t illicitly harvest my kidneys. Besides, I always felt you sorta reveled in the esoterica.)

And, wow, it’s Yaoi Huntress Earth! A past visitor for my blog shows up here! How’s it hangin’, YHE?

I don’t know about the confusion, Santo, but I can assure you that while Dr Haus may be A doctor, I am THE Doctor…the genuine article, you might say.

Separate entity entirely.

My imitation comment was supportive of you - sometimes your reviews have looked like mine, and I took it as a compliment. Hopefully Dr. Haus will, too, rather than thinking you nicked his style, so to speak.

Saddly the art is one of the few really good points about the comic, everything else is just either so blantantly cliche or just thrown in to be “cool\wacky” (like Lex and Matrix and the impossibly huge sword). While sticking to the cliches might have a slight advantage, it also makes the comic predictable (how many times can Ina’s father fail another kidnapping due to being distracted by the sexy girl ninjas) and makes it feel like the writer isn’t even trying.

Actually, I’ve always confused “The Doctor” with “Dr. Haus” on several occasions.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, after all.
Some of his reviews have been similar in style to mine as well - or at least they seemed so to me - and I took it as a compliment!

Believe it or not, Haus, I was a bit hesitant about posting this because I thought this review might come off as a rip-off of your style. I think one of your reviews may have burrowed into my subconscious and surfaced at this moment.

Don’t worry: I think this is the one and only time I’ll enter Story mode.

Huh, this sounds suspiciously like something I might have written. Now I’ll have to dig into this thing’s archives at some point because of you.

I believe his time has come, yes.

..although that can also be taken in a menacing fashion - this stuff is so HARD to say!
