wow. sorry guys but looks like you didnt destory them yet.
i want a pair of wings myself but it comes with a big price
~Flame
FIRST COMMENT!!!
But seriously guys, that's really creepy. Why can't people just stop messibng with science. Jeez, eveyone's gonna wnat to have wongs and stuff now. (No offense to you guys).
What an idiot! That has to be the dumbest thing I've EVER heard! Why would anyone want wings when they can't even use them to fly? It's just so they can look like angels??? Does he think he can play God? I mean there a lot of crazy ideas out there, but I seriously...
~Gianna
I don't quite understand...
creepy. just plain creepy.

I feel sorry for the mouse.
I'd love to have wings and to be able to fly !
It sounds disgusting otherwise !
In case you're wondering, I don't approve of what that guy wants to do. It's not natural !
Fly on forever !
The Girl Who Could Fly
I still feel sorry for the mouse.
Fly on forever !
The Girl Who Could Fly
Pshhtt.
Looks like someone's behind.
AND I KNOW THAT SONG. <3333
Before anyone gets wings or tails, they should read your story! Maybe they'll think twice afterwards.
By the way, I love the song! The Beatles rule!
C'est la vie
Thats freaking intense.
awww the poor mousie! *goes over in a corner and cries over science taking over the world*
I'M REALLY HYPER! but thats sooo wrong! its gross. Who would want that?

SO WHAT IF FANG WENTOUT WITH ELLA? I'VE ALWAYS WONDERED.....
dim-rod plastic surgeon thinks he can play god.
BTW:
dosen't EVERY sci-fi movie start with somebody wanting to create super-soilders? Then it goes wrong, and then we all die.
THE END.
poor mouse! *shudder*
Wings = cool
Tail = not so great (sorry Total)
Ugh
I'm sorry this is just too gross I don't think people should be messing with human DNA. It's just not right
I'm sorry, but that's just sick. Yeah, it would be cool to have wings and all, but that's just something you dream about and think, that would be totally awesome! I mean, it's hard for me to really get into this without mentioning my religion, but I think it doesn't matter if you're a Christian or not, this is just wrong. Honestly, I think they should just quit messing with this science stuff cuz they just went to far. Altering ourselves when we function perfectly fine?! I mean, flying is something I've always wanted to do, but this is just sick. I can't seem to get the right words to explain it though.
this is just too gross, Idon't think that guy should mess around with human DNA. It's just not right.
this is just to gross, I don't think that this guy should mess around with human DNA. It's just not right.
I just saw a video that had that very mouse today in my health class. And I think that is wrong and inhuman on soooo many levels. The poor mouse is a victim of those doctors.
It's great that scientists are able to come up with new techniques to save people but some stuff that scientists are experimenting with is wrong. God made people the way we are for a reason.
I'm glad that you posted this though, It's englightening and shows everyone how much the world has changed in such a short period of time.
Personally, I wouldn't want wings, unless I could fly with them.
I mean, if you guys weren't being hunted all the time and you were widely known about and accepted; well, you'd be the most idolized people ever! You kinda already are, but... XD
So, yeah, wings are wonderful, but they aren't really a fashion accessory. If you guys need any help taking him down... we're here. :)
Hope you're doing okay. <3

Hey,
maybe i shouldn't have brought that up. my bad... ya it would be stupid. sry...
}88keysyndrome{ :(
That is the most disturbing thing I've ever heard of. Someone seriously has a plan to let people have wings?? What is wrong with the world?
I mean, I know you guys didnt have a choice, but people have to be stupid if they actually WANT wings. Maybe flying for a day would be fun, but forever? Disgusting. We're not birds.
@.@ Just...Plain...Creepy...
That's kind of a creepy mouse.
...I think I'd name it Cheesewhiz.
Ah-yup.
Wings would be awesome, but... I'm sorry no offense, but it's not natural. Even if they were, or are, able to graft or whatever wings on humans, if we couldn't fly, what's the point? I don't want these two wings on my back and they're of no use to me. A tail, however, sounds interesting, but... I don't know. It doesn't sit right in my head.
Be safe and careful!
-K.A.P
Okay what was that all about. Happy late, early or on time birthday. Iggy did you punch Fang three hundred times for me yet?
-boring person
NOT A GOOD IDEA!
Can you imagine what would happen if people started getting wings and tails and such? We would have even more prejudice and more scientists would get it into their heads that they have to out-do this guy! And then we would have testing on animals and they would eventually need human subjects! What part of that is humane? None of it!!!
Horrible, horrible idea! No!
---jix
i wouldn't mind having a pair of wings as well, but not if they're just...flaps of FLESH. urgh...*shudders* still, it's crazy wild, and it will cause a huuuuuuuuge "war", in a sense in the future. but still, i think that the Flock should be the only ones with wings--because they are awesome and can handle it =)
Thats amazing that someone could give you wings and they would connect and you could move them, iknow its wrong, but couldnt it be useful, like if someone was born without legs or something, couldnt you give them new ones? i think its an interesting concept

That's just sad. I feel terrible for that mouse.
the rat...mouse....thing at the end SCARED ME! are those suppose to be wings on it's back O_o
Oooo, that sounds painful *winces*
That's not normal.
Quick question for Iggy- I know you can't see, but you can probably hear extraordinarily well.
I have this thing where when I hear any sort of sound, I see a color. Can you understand that? Do you have it, too?
Wow. I can't believe it. My friend said: freaky!
*cough*exactword*cough* Can't wait till we can all fly. If it's AFTER i die, well then I hope that I'm reincarnated. ;)
That's not normal.

Hmm... I've heard that song somewhere. Just can't think of it right now.
But anyway, that's pretty cool. But I'm sure it will cost thousands of dollars and the only person lining up will be Paris Hilton, so she can be even MORE different from society.
:D
You think you can make room for one more in the Flock?
Ha, ha.

Kaila Nicole [R.I.P. Ryan McDonald of the Central High School shootings]
That stuff is seriously weird. But it makes me think.
And I wouldn't want wings unless I could fly.
3 things Fang:
1. That Picture is compleatly heartbreaking( I was like O.O OMIGOSH!!...pause...thump thump)
2. The whole wingged thing from the science freaks is.....freaky in like 5 different languages.
3. I know the price is High from what Max and You have said, but honestly, I say this I WOULD pay for wings. No matter I too, hate scientist(BAD scientist, good ones are fine) but I want to be free and just go whereever it is I need/ want to go. I mean alot of people (obviously) want that.
thats why they read the books, read the blog: Its an excape from the REAL world. Gosh, its bad out here. Alot of the times, I imagine myself as Max justfor fun and imagine that I could fly at the speed of what is it? Sound? I dunno; but honestly have you realized how cool it is? YES, I do relize its "hard" bing in your situation but my situation is hard too. Who's isn't?
Its why we--the readers-- relate to you and the flock

Please it'll be my pleasure to share whatever it is your curious about
Revolution! Best song ever! Especially the version in Across the Universe... that one is sooo good! Gosh I love that song.
Plus a cool article. I can't say I wouldn't want to get wings but I do think that it is relatively horrifying that they could be able to do such things.
Love Always,
Revolution!!!!
Ree
umm...thats kind of weird...is that guy syco or something?
Wow, this is seriously gonna start making things like the school actually be real. People are really gonna start wanting to experiment with this stuff and the gov. ain't gonna let 'em. So they're gonna make things like the school. holy crap, it's like JP can predict the future or something... That's just weird...
~ Coleman
HOLY CRAP!!!! sorry, just scared out of my wits.
L8r,
Z~Z
That's pretty sick, and no in the good way. Who would do that to themselves? I swear, it this kind of stuff keeps up, people will figure out a way to have lazer beams shoot out of their eyes.
-Me(duh)
That's...not going to be good at all...
I can understand the tails, actually, tails own. The supersonic hearing, I want that!
But, this won't look like an angel, at least not at first. They're using skin, you'll look like a bat.
And geez...do they even work? They'll definetly get in the way...
Gross
That song pretty much sums up how I feel about all this stuff. Great song, by the way.
Thanks for the update!
-Summer
Okay, first, that dude sounds Creepy with a capital C. And, two, why the heck would anyone want wings if they can't actually use them? Like, if they could make you fly, it wouldn't be as weird, it would actually be slightly pwnsome. But this, this tops the scale for ridiculous-ness of the human race.
All I'm thinking right now is: What the heck?!?! that is very weird and a bit creepy. But also shocking. What is up with our science these days? We're finding some very new, and somewhat interesting things...
That is really super creepy. I can't believe someone would do that. Well, I believe it, but it is animal cruelty. I like you used the words to Revolution, my fav Beatles song! :]
Interesting...to say the least.
Runescape Forever-
Zezima
That's...
Wow. Poor Mouse. That's awful.
But, to argue a point with gianna, some people don't need to fly. They want the wings for the effect. It's the same as people who file their teeth and pretend to be vampires. I personally don't get it, but I understand where people would be coming from.
P.S. KEEP DOING AWESOME STUFF YOU GUYS.
That is truly scary. Keep up the good work guys, people need to know about this.
Oh. My. Gosh. Erm...Maximum Ride books ARE fiction...right???? OK, color me WAY freaked out. But those guys with wings wouldn't be able to fly, I suppose, without a 20-ft wingspan. Technically, they might need to be gigantic and for people who aren't overweight in order for somebody to get off the ground.
gtfo of my Beatles.
The picture on the bottom of the entry is a naked mouse with an ear growing on it. The ear was then taken off after it fully grew and given to someone whose ear had been blown off by an explosive.
It really depends on how people are using science that determines if you should be angry or delighted that they're doing it. In the Flock's case, I'd probably be mad since you guys were taken away from your parents (maybe some of you would rather it that way) but grafting wings on innocent children? That's just way too wrong, especially since you had no choice whether you wanted to have wings or not.
The article that you linked is pretty strange. Why would anyone want wings that don't make you fly? It's just an unneeded accessory; not saying that if there are people who are willing to give wings like yours to the public that you should get them because they help you fly. It won't improve our lives in anyway, especially inside us where our soul is. So what if it's cool to have wings that you can move willingly. They'll just become a burden after a certain amount of time and you won't be able to take them out without a lot of money and a vast amount of pain.
Okay, enough with my little rant...
~ Kadrice
what??? that is frekin weird. wouldn't that be painful. like Ari's wings? they are all most the same thing exept Ari was part wolf. thats just creepy. who, after reading you books. would want wings? no afence. all the rsponcibility<(Spelling). but still it would be cool, mabey?
-Nicole
creepy. It would be so awesome to have wings (if you could really fly)!!! If you couldn't fly anyway... it would be kind of pointless.
humans are idiots
what the heck!
It seems everyone wants to be just like you! :)
I only want wings if I can use them to fly. Otherwise it's completely and utterly pointless.
OH MY GOD YOU FINALLY DISCOVERED THE BEATLES!!!!! THIS SONG IS THE FATHER OF MODERN ROCK!!!! IF ONLY I HAD BEEN ALIVE WHEN THEY SANG IT!!!!!! I LOVE THE BEATLES!!!!! I LIKE MAS RIDE TOO!!!
Creepie stuff, man
That's so SAD! He/she's only a ratsy, did nothing wrong besides eat. But we all eat so why does it matter, seriously!? So why would peoples do that??? Oh, I know....
I also want wings too, but.... I dunno, all I see that's bad is the years of agony in the School, and hiding. I guess that's pretty but still flying? Awesome... lol.
I heard, that this guy is gonna be able to have people have wings and/or a tail. Maybe there gonna be starting a School. I dunno.
~DrAfTs
OH. My. God. Why would they want to give a person wings? What if something wrong happens? This is reality! So if ya mess up, your doomed.(No offense flock)
I think its pretty cool personally. Sure u couldn't use them to fly but they would make u different. I mean who wants to be the same as everyone else. I'll be different. Fly on
gosh. he's an idiot. i only like you guys with wings! and whats the point in having wings if you cant fly?!
Peace♥
Wow. That's...weird. Very, very weird. And I've seen some weird things.
At first I thought you posted a link for every line of lyrics, and I'm like "Whoa, SOMEONE'S got time on his hands..."
:)
~Alyssa~
Aw- poor baby... I wish I could have him... and I love the Beatles- Revolution is an awesome song.
Fang- when you fly, do you get a weird sense of freedom?
If you do- then I need it. I could use a break from my crappy life...
PLEASE ANSWER ME!!!!!!!!!!
Yours, HeyHey
Thats a load of bull that scientists do that to the poor animals, they have lives too. They wake up everyday and die just like us, the Bible already said Mankind will destroy the Earth. I would like a pair of cat ears and tail, or maybe some wings, but...
Hmmm, wings, yes. Wings that can't fly, no.... That really is quite wierd.
Besides, if we ever are going to be able to grow wings to fly with, it won't be through plastic surgery, it'll be through genetic modification. We just have to figure which genes code for wings, hollow bones, feathers, muscles, etc....
Wow.
Akiko
Woah. deep poem/song. Crazy surgeon.
Although, if everyone had wings, wouldn't it make it easier for the flock? except you'd be the only ones actually flying.
Hm.
Gnarly!
-icthus
Dude, I submitted a link to that article to you guys, like three months ago! lol!
I've been doing quite alot of research on topics like that for science, and if someone wants wings all they have to do is graft a pair on, construct the wing bones from coral and use your own fat and skin. pretty cool, huh!?!?
Oh my, God. Actually, God isn't even involved in this, considering all these creatures are made in a LAB! That poor mouse. What's the use of having a human ear on it's back? NONE. So they shouldn't be messing with the poor thing. The mouse was fine the way it was before. I love how John Lennon's lyrics in a song are always right, and...peaceful. You don't hear that word nowadays, due to the war US has going on with Iraq. Anyways, I know everyone wants wings, but, I think I am fine the way I am. Max and JP's book turned the human dream of flying, into a total nightmare. Weird how people can do mess with your thoughts, huh? ;)
whoa... that's pretty creepy. and wrong. dr. joe rosen seems a little too ambitious. is he trying to play God or something?does he think "oh, i'm gonna stick wings onto people's backs cuz i feel like it. what could possibly go wrong?" what people don't realize is that when you mess with nature there are consequences. and seriously, are we really ready to deal with these consequences?
also, did anyone else bother to look at the date of the article? it said monday, march 11th, 2002. that means this happened 6 years ago. has dr. rosen been able to graft wings onto human's backs yet?
none of this is meant to offend you, fang, or the flock, of course. you guys are awesome!
Peace and Hufflemuffins
CJ
HOLY CRAP! I WANT WINGSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! that'd hurt so badly though, i'd rather have my DNA spliced with avian DNA so the wings would grow more naturally. But very interesting. The picture of the rat looked sick though, i thought it was a pig at first.
i will re-read the poem (or lyrics) you wrote on the link, i think i get the point your trying to convey, but i'm not sure yet.
love much to the flock and stay safe,
maeowe
What the heck . . . That poor mouse, er, rat! Why, in the world, would someone do that? I just don't see the point.
-Ebo
More depressing poetry? For shame, Fang, for shame. This is...interesting. But I'm sort of confused on your opinion about this - your depressing poetry was kinda vague. I mean, this is cosmetic surgery we're talking - they won't be able to fly, and like all plastic surgery, you'd have to be willing for them to do anything to you. And enhanced hearing would be a great thing for seniors who are losing theirs, though the super-solider thing really sickens me.
ok. one word.
creepy.
that mouse-ear thing is really freaky. I think they also featured that in a CSI episode.
having wings is pointless if you can't fly.
wow... that was really something. did that rat have an ear on it's back? that is just WRONG! If they ever create a successful invention other than u guys & other stuff, they should try and figure out how to attatch wings 2 some1 my age(me!) and make it painless! they should. seriously. i mean it. i want wings. still don't like ella cuz i<3ig.<3all da' flock.
Fly On,
QuickSilver
Oh jeez. That poor mouse. Is that supposed to be an ear or something? It looks like one.
It's kind of sick what some people are planning to do with genetics. And that guy says he can graft wings onto people. But will they work? I'm not saying I wouldn't love wings, but I'd rather have natural wings myself.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Ok. I'm Done.
Jeezum.
I mean, I've seen the mouse-ear thing in a magazine (which seriously creeped me out!!), but giving people wings? Arent you guys enough?
Wow.
-Amanda <3
I've seen this before, my biology teacher my sophmore year showed us that picture, its been out for a while :(
OMG!! i can't believe people would do that!!! That is sooooooo not right!!!
And to gianna, the man wasnt an idiot. Yes I agree "oh, poor mouse" but this is a serious break throuh in science! Now we (not the animals, dont worry) can grow our OWN limbs back! Think about it! If you lost your leg in a car accident, wouldnt it be great to grow it back? Well, as long as there arent any clones...that would be weird. And not right, since you know, they'd still be human and all.... 0.o
I WANT WINGS!!!!! I know it will hurt but I have a dream where I have wings! I WANT THAT DREAM TO COME TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with gianna. Who would want wings when then CANT FLY WITH THEM?!?!? If I got any, i would make sure I could actually FLY with them. Otherwise, why would you want these huge flaps of skin like just hanging around?!? I would totally get them, thoug, if like i could actually fly with them. That is pretty weird. Are you sure he's not working with the School or Itex or something? *shivers* Anyway, luv u all to death!!!!!
xoxo,
-Jacki; 6AngelzWingz
That. Is. Disgusting. Wings on humans ( no offense guys ) and tails? Gross! ( again, no offense ) That`s just sick. You guys HAVE to stop this! No one should do that to themselves.
Fly On and stop them!
Kyo
Ack! Too twisted. Of course, the flock is different — twisted complements some of you (ahem, Gazzy and Iggy). And, for the rest of you, it's the most natural thing for you to have wings.
But for a normal person to have useless wings? A bit past my weird threshold.
And why are humans incapable of leaving things untouched? If you see a giant rock in the forest, you don't turn it over. But, if you get the idea of grafting wings onto a person, then, by all means...
To each his own, I guess.
Sarah.
Poor mouse!! I really hope that`s not real... If it is, then you guys have some work to do... Angry Mob anyone?
Fly On and Fight Back!

o god.
that is SO wrong...
unless of course people would WANT that kind of stuff. (shudders)
actually, I want wings, but not like that.
imagine how many people theyre going to kill before they actually get it right.
the mouse or rat or whatever thing chilled me.

Uh...weird.
Ahhh.....what are they doing? Enhancing armies for military use! Giving wings to us (okay must admit it would be cool, but...) look we are human, we should be grateful we are alive-and have homes and food, and technology. It used to be radical to simply get you ears paired, now belly, tongue, nose, eye brow/lids...ext. Now most kids at my school have at least two ear holes (this includes me) plus a bunch with nose peircing. Back to the topic, sure I'd love wings, but I am happy with the surge thats feels like using wing musles when I swim (I think you guys would be beast at that, same muscle area focused on as it sounds like your wings use) or the adrinalin rush when I dive, the wooshing! Sure its not flying and you would probably be disapointed by it..Its good enough for me. As long as I feel strong, and fit, and pretty I am happy. Not to mension so totally uhg! But I guess if someone really wanted too, they should have the right to get wings or a tail or whatever. As long as it doesn't become main stream, like botox, and tummy tucks, and split toungues. I am so sorry this is happening to you!!!
A.
creepy...
Ok, thats the most deluding piece of crap ive ever seen. not the rat pic mind you, but the song thing. we come here to enjoy ourselves and find out about your story and maybe the next book, but not to have crude pictures forced on us and a hippie "save the animals" song posted up here.
now i do understand it is your blog, so you can put up whatever you want, but enough with the enviromentalist crap, ok?

Please listen!
that is sad, seriously, makes me cringe. Do love the song lyrics, really work in this situation.
Why would you want wings if you can't fly?
Why would you want to look like a wolf if you can't run with the pack?
Really, it's interesting and all, but pretty pointless. The poor rat... I wonder what we will go to to achieve the impossible?
~Greer
Wings would be fantastic, if, y'know, I could actually FLY!!! That is just... wrong. What kind of messed up freak would try and do something like that!
holy crap!
it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside knowing crazy scientists are still out there, bent on messing with peoples heads.
you guys never get a break, huh? there's always something to worry about. Chocolate Chip cookies might not be enough this time. Max might have to move on to brownies. ha ha
~Eclipse
Oh My Geez. Who could do that? You gotta be real messed up to think of that as a success or something. People have made Maximum Ride more than just the life of you guys. They're taking it to us now. STUPID!
Question for Fang:
Have you ever written a song?
Was it about Max?
Q for Ig: Do you think Ella's cool?
Fly high,
TAW
FANGirl (But Max Can have him! They're meant to be!)
Creepy. It makes you think...
Hmmm well anyway good luck and when is the next book coming out? because your story isn't over yet.
the wings..on the rat..or whatever animal it is...they look like..ears.
yah, that totally didnt creep me out
I want wings, but that is SICKENING...
Itex is back!
"You just can't kill people like you used to"
Poor mousey... ;[ Stupid scientist need to stop messing with nature and leave it be... they're whats wrong with the world!
can we fly with those wings?
Craziness. I wouldn't change my face for the world, though. I'm happy having the flock as the only winged kids I know =)
forget the comment that said cool. i just wanted 1 post so i didnt read it. its disgusting
i love that song.
by the beatles.
but the mouse or whatever it is..
pretty creepy.
It's interesting, to say the least...
Even with all you guys went through, I'd get a pair of wings, but only if I could fly.
~ Rain
Its gross but its probably the only way that they can learn... its wrong trying to play god though.
Fly on forever
oooooooooooooookay. Um i just want to give a shout out to my bro (Mikel) his birthday is August 25 if you could mention him that would be great!
mojo72
P.S. The rat with the ear, so so soooo weird!!!!!
cool but very weird
fly on,
yvonicka
yes, because that has not been successfully done before... with out the side effects of not flying... the mouse is creepy though..
Nameless
how sick. how utterly disgusting. Does anyone agree with me when I say that mouse doesn't look happy? There's a reason God made that mouse without an ear on its back. Personally? I'm glad someone is fighting this.
That is crazy people should be proud of who they are and not want to change the way they are and if you do get wings or tails or what ever then deep down even if they look real you will know that they aren't STOP TRYING TO BE GOD PEOPLE!!!!!!
Fly on
Flockluva2039
Ahhh! This scares me. I mean, sure, it would be cool to have wings, even if I couldn't fly with them, but...
*shudders*
It sounds like...well, human/avian hybrids and the like may not actually be possible yet, but it's looking more and more possible every year. Every few months even. Did you hear about the robot-thing recently made? It's controlled by a sort of 'brain' scientists made by putting rat neurons together. It apparently is the first robot that actually "learns". How long before they progress from testing on animals (which is plenty wrong) to testing on humans/sentient creatures? Heck, they're halfway there, experimenting on chimpanzees and monkeys!
Lovely. Just lovely. Note the very heavy sarcasm.
Perhaps I'm overreacting, but...*shivers*
-Gryph
That is seriously messed up... no offence to you guys! luv ya!
~Megan
This is stupid a cosmetic surgen should be allowed/forced to do any surgery he is asked of. The government and laws should not be affected by religion because the idea of playing God is pointless to people who don't believe in God. I would personally love having wings even if I could not fly cause sky diving would be so much more fun. O would not want an ear on my back. But I don't see why this is a big deal.

P.S The lyrics are from the Across the Universe version and not the original Beatles of Revolution. It is an amazing song

That poor mouse... it looks like it has an ear stuck to it's side... is that someone's sick idea of a wing? *shudders*
P.s. Who's lyrics are those? If they're your own you really need to get them into a real song. Forget the money that comes with it, and get the lyrics out there.
Not good!! Not good!! That poor defenseless mouse!! That picture makes me fighting mad!!!
ow poor mousy
um to ur q and a thingy u got punched i think iggy was embarrased bout u saying that 2 all uf us loyal ppl 2 the flock so yeah :) if u wanna read sum of mah stuff check out www.deviantart.com/102obsessions thanx soooooooo much

Luckily that ear wasn't truly genetically engineered, and the mouse was only like that order to help someone. of course, that raises the ethics issue whether a mouse's life is equal to that of a human's, but that's a different can of worms.
I don't really know what to think about people with wings and tails going mainstream, though. It would certainly make freak shows more interesting, but I really don't think it's safe to allow the general public access to this sort of stuff. What next, Cyborgs equipped with laser eyes walking around us? Eek.
Anyway, thanks for keeping us lowly flock followers informed!

PS Nice song choice.
uhh... that's kinda creepish..
really!

"Put bluntly, who the hell would want wings or a tail?"
AMEN TO THAT! *thrusts a fist in the air*
That article absolutely sickened me... the thought that people actually ENJOY the thought of that, that they, WANT to be altered. What if your, "wings" became infected? How would you treat wing infection? And worst yet, how would you explain it to your child (If you had the surgery)? I mean, the child's like, "Mommy/Daddy, why do you have wings, but Daddy/Mommy and I don't?" I don't expect you to say, "Because some Dingbat made a fortune mutating my body and I discovered that, it's not all that it cracked up to be to have wings. And that's why I won't allow you to get wings, because I don't wan't you to be as stupid as me." I mean, if they operate wrong, you could lose use in your shoulders, and arms if they do it wrong. And, I'm sorry, but, do you really trust that pervert attatching a tail down there? Imagine buying clothes? Having to cut a hole in all your clothing to accomodate a tail or *shudders* tails or wings. (I understand you guys already do know this with the wings thing.) Anyway, I'll get off my soapbox and just leave it at that. I voiced my opinion, and that's enough for me.
~Fly on global protectors!~
OMG that poor rat in the picture! i HATE scientific experiment on animals. It's just cruel! And its even more cruel to RAISE an animal for experimentation. I mean, where is the ethics of those freaky scientists?! What would they like it if THEY were under the needles? Animals deserve a life too!
-Animal Lover Girl
Interesting... I want to see Enigma's horns.
The human body is fascinating; to be able to accept radical new body parts is really cool. Very sci-fi.
Cool? COOL? I think NOT.
Sure, it SOUNDS interesting enough, but that's just nasty. If we were meant to have wings, we'd have them. If we were meant to have tails, we'd have them. I dunno what you all think, but this is just SICK. You're right guys, it sounds like skin grafts, needles and cages from here on out. How many people are going to DIE because of this? What are they going to test on? Sure, test on mice, but mice aren't people. That's just UNNATURAL.
Rock on, Fang. Give that guy a proper beat-down.
If you have wings but can't fly, what's the point? Instant Halloween costume? On the plus side, the flock will blend in better. That is, until you take off.
whoa. That was weird. Can someone explain? The link didnt open for me D: btw, could you PLEASE stop posting stuff with nuthing but links? Its getting annoying to have to wait endlessly for another window to load.
Stay safe guys!
Crystal
Well, I think it's awesome. And, it's only a matter of time before there'll be surgery or gene therapy that'll allow people to actually use their wings...
I'd be the first in line.
K. In line for the question queue. What do you do with your legs when you fly? Stick them straight out? Tuck them? Do the stork and let them hang down? Answer before my cat gets killed.
Personally I dont see the point of this. What i really want is to fly, but if i cant do that then why should I waste valuable money on wings i wont get to use? It makes no sense. Besides, it would probably be painful and everyone would treat you as a freak. Imnot gonna insult anyone since everyone has a right to an opinion, but personally it seems freakish and stupid. Why can't people love themselves as they are?
thats so sadd poor rat that song is sadd even tho i love that song
fly long
Kara
Um, that's an EAR guys. They're using skin grafts to put it on people who's ears got like cut off or something.
No thanks.
Going back to my social studies homework (yeah, happy Friday right)
That songs on my Ipod =)
And the picture? Freeeeaky.
Fly on guys, fly on.
Jeez...
Talk about rad. These stuff, like wings, were built-in for a purpose. No offense to you guys - personally, I like wings, and would love if I have one. And as I've read, they just, like, want to put them in for the sake of having them. I don't see a mention that these will be useful.
What? Wings for the sake of havin' wings?!?
And those "scientist" or "surgeons", as they call themselves sort of want to play god.
And it ain't cool.
moi,
Skye
Yeah, having wings wouldn't be worth it unless you could actually use them to fly. You'd be made fun of at (namely, school) or, maybe be mistaken for the flock and captured by "the school"! no offense meant.
Oh My Gosh Beatles Song Revolution!!!!! I Love The Beatles!!!!
This is probably one of the most disgusting things that I've ever heard/read. I can understand the ear thing, I have a friend who was born without an ear and I want him to be able to hear properly. THAT kind of surgery/science is understandable.
But wings? A tail? Good God, even FUR? When will it end? When people want an extra pair of arms and legs to be like Shiva? We are made the way we are MEANT to be made! We don't need tails for balance, we already HAVE a sense of balance! We wouldn't even be able to USE the wings, our bodies aren't made for it! And we already have the gift of flight on planes and ships!
Sorry about the long rant, but when people play God, I get angry and annoyed.
~P.O.-ed Ranter
1. WTF!!!whats the point of having wings if u cant use them 2. thats just jacked up. we were created the way we are. i 4 1 DO NOT want 2 have a tail, be genetically enhanced, and stuff like that.(well mabye if i were like max and the flock and if i wasnt getting chased 24/7...) and 3. THATS JUST MESSED UP!
It's cool, but a little creepy. While I would kill to have wings, I wouldn't pay to have them grafted on.
But it's nice to know that my dream of having wings could come true.
OMG!! That is, like,my favorite song of all time. GO BEATLES!!!!!! It sucks that people are screwing with mother nature. And they can't even use them to fly!! Come on!
Anyway, great song Fang,
ROck on,
TEss
omg ew
dat's sick
poor rat...
at least you guys got something right done, even if you might disappear off the face of the earth suddenly.
DON'T GO!
Beatles... nice!
Byt yeah, that stuff is all messed up. I suggest everyone should read House of the Scorpian by Nancy Farmer. It's about a boy who is a clone, built mainly for the purpose of "spare parts" in case his donor needs an organ. Good story.
Having wings would be cool, but what's the point of having them if you can't fly? Wouldn't flight be the whole point? *is confuzzled*
Who would want flap just hanging off their back if it didn't do anything? GROSS!
Be safe, Fang!
~Jessica
wierd very very wierd... that thing is goin 2 giv me nightmares...as soon as i go 2 sleep.,.,.,.,.
~~nightwing =0)
wings would be cool, but we dont have the body type to fly. aren't scientests supposed to be smart?
What is that? A frickin' human ear? WHO'S IDEA WAS IT TO DO THAT TO A MOUSE AND WHY?!
Seeing "Skin Grafts" in the title made me catch my breath. I was used for a test, like a Guinipig. I didn't appreciate it, but it happened, and now the skin on my shoulder and leg are screwed and sick. (-,-)
I feel sorry for the mouse.

P.S. PLEASE tell us what Iggy's and the Gasman's wings look like! It's hard to write a fanfic 'bout Ig without knowing. (x,x)
kinda creepy, but cool.
That is out of control. People with tails? And/or wings? Walking around downtown doing their business like everyone else? I can't believe it. No, that's not entirely true. I can believe it. The unbelievable is pretty commonplace, nowadays.
My mind is blown, flock. With all you guys go through because of how you look, I can't imagine how you feel about people that are willing to pay thousands of dollars to change their 'normal' appearence when you'd probably give lots to be able to live their 'normal' lives. Well, unique is unique, I guess....but then again, how far is too far?
i-i-is that a rat? JEez..... WhAt in the huge wild world would anyone for that matter need a flying rat? if that is a rat.... thats CREEPY with a capitol CREEPY. wait, so if your having a manga based on you, does that mean you guys read manga? (these are the questions that haunt me......) 'cause if you do, i's love to know what you read and see if you have good taste....
my my my.... this is a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng commment.........................
XD
XD
XD
oh and would you ever get freaked our if someone like, 104 like, messages on the site? would you guys get freaked out?
I would... but i would have no idea how old the person would be....
oh yea. one more thing, you guys update during the most random times......randomness is awesome ain't it?
Oh. My. God. At first I was excited cuz it was a Beatles song. Then I realized what the link was to. Sick.
cool...
or not. it depends on how u look at it. it's a little on the creepy side for me.
the bookworm
^_^ BYE!!!
This is completely sick and wrong. I mean, look at that poor mouse. This doesn't look like it's gonna go anywhere pretty. Now OUR generation will have to deal with the consequences of one immoral man.
That's just kinda sick. I mean, I get using science to experiment with cures for cancer and stuff, but why do something that could casue even more problems or diseases? (No offense to you guys or anything.)
There is a bright side for you guys, though. If you need to blend in and everyone has wings, you won't have to hide them anymore!!
TwilightRide
Oh know I do. That has its ups and downs. Maybe if they allowed me to actually fly....
That's disguisting. the rat with the ear....disturbing. That man may not be crazy but I think he might be prett darn close. You can't alter human beings, it's just not the natural order of things. HE'S NOT GOD! Fang, did you write that poem or did you find it because I thought it was smart and good. I like it when you guys raise import news topics for us, of course they have t do with you, but still they're good to hear. I would think you guys would be uterally repulsed by such an idea. Can we get your thoughts on this article, I'm highly sure I coud guess, close to right, but could you tell me, us...
Fly forever. Peace and love
Katie.x ^_^ ,.., xXwingsXx
Aw heck, this is freaking terrible, not cool! Does anyone still have MORALS anymore? Science is going too far and has always gone too far. If you're enough of a Maximum Ride fan to be on Fang's blog, then you should not think this is cool! The whole series deals with how terrible Itex and the Whitecoats are for wanting to do terrible things to humans, to experiment with them. Hello? It's WRONG! This Doctor guy is obviously immoral and shouldn't be allowed to do any experimenting. If he really wanted to help people- if scientists really want to help people- they can stop spending billions of dollars on stupid, useless, immoral experiments and put a few bucks toward people who actually need help... you know, the POOR, the HUNGRY? People like that? Remember them? Yeah. It pains me to see something so stupid and wrong. If they really want to help the world, they can find another way to do it, because this isn't helping anyone, just plunging the world into further darkness. Give me a break. Please.
Oh cool! This might be ethically wrong but I think it's really interesting,think, in a few years some people might be walking around with wings, I could get used to that =]
Okay, Admittedly the wings thing IS cool, but ridiculous. WHAT is the POINT of having wings if you can't fly?
Also, I am incredibly upset about the mouse. I've read stories, but I had no idea they were so sick and horrible looking...
It's inhumane.
Letting animals be subjected to such....disgustingness is horrible.
We humans need to quit messing with science and junk. We ain't God or whoever your faith beleives in.
Stop Animal Testing!
Improve Animal Rights!
~Jade, Wings Of Flame.
Holy crap. That is like... what is this world coming to?! People need to seriously just like stop and think about what is happening and what they are doing. That was not cool.
This has huge potential. I mean, I'm sorry, I'm rooting for you guys and all, but this scientific advancement is pretty tempting. A couple years from now and they could get them to actually work, just a few grafts here and there to the spinal cord....
that is just sickening.
Ew..
:)
Hello!
Agreeing with gianna, why would people want wings if they couldn't fly with them? But on the other side the whole thing with BDD makes sense.
Well in 5 years you could probabilly walk around with your wings out :)
Holy crap. jeez. i don't know why on earth... well i do know why on earth. what i don't know is...well, hmmm. I wish i had a pair of wings, but...would it be worth it? to suddenly, just get wings, not be able to fly with them? that's purely narcissist. and i agree with gianna. these guys can NOT just play god like that. i mean, i'm not even christian, and i can see how insulting that is. and how it might be used for forcefully altering non-christian and atheist ideas. like, "look! see? proof! angels exist!" that's just unethical.
i like that Beatles song, though! :-)
still. creepy.
that's scary.
That idiot's a bit late with the wings, dude.
Wow... what else can I say? ... just... wow...
Holy Snap. that is friggin crazy that guy is messed up. i would want fly if i had wings. i want to leave the life i have cuz noone cares.
They said you wouldn't be able to fly with the wings they gave you so what would be the point in getting them at all. There insane not metion all the pepole who would chose to have the wings plus this guy is probly the first agnoleged white coat becaue we all know that soon he will be doing other tests without others pepole consent.
awwwwwww poor mouse that was so evil!!!!!
Now I guess pigs really can fly.
hey fang,
do you remember being uhhh, changed to the way you are now...that's always bugged me, i hope you don't, it would stink if you did. if you do...i'm sorry.
fly on
Avalon
W-O-W
I would love wings, but not hanging ones - there's no point if you can't actually fly, is there!
Guh. If I could use them to fly, then I would be there... but otherwise. Nope. Hey, at least you guys could go out in public! Just pretend you have rich parents or something? That'd be something good, anyway.
It's up to them if they wanted to do that... people are crazy.
Love you!
~MoonStar
That's just wrong.
I mean, even if NORMAL humans get wings, they would most probably be caged and won't be let out. Like zoo animals. Like science experiments.
And it's not fair.
What's the purpose of looking like a freaking angel when people would treat you like freaks?
And it's not like the flock - it's not like the wings are going to be retractable are they?
That's just so so wrong.
Great, the white coats are fighting back. They can't do this! The science board or whatever cannot pass this! This guy needs to think about how this would affect people.
One, people will die if they test this on people.
Two, we'd need retractable wings or we couldn't even walk through doorways.
Three, we'd need humungos slits in our shirts for the wings.
Four, they'd be really heavy and a pain to have.
Five, they can't oporate on everyone. It would take centuries for every person on the planet to get a pair of wings and have a new super race.
Overall, this guy really needs to read your books. Seriously.
