eruthrosHeh! My last post made me remember that list I wrote at the original airdate of Endgame in 1997. This is one of the ways I wrote to save Marcus:
21. They shoot his body out onto a planet that is in the process of growing and he is reformed by it, growing as fast as it does in the beginning in order to return to Babylon 5 in a year.
The ridiculous things one writes to get a favorite character back; or, why some fanfiction doesn't work. I mean, Mulder shoves off and it's all "oh, *again?*" Basically takes no effort. Anybody can fix it any which way. In the case of the Babylon 5s of the world, it's pretty much over once the guy's dead.
Also:
41. He needs to be in the spinoff.
It's a good show, and so that doesn't cut it. Just because he would have been excellent as a Ranger on an all-Ranger show is no excuse to start weirdo plot lines.
