Given your definition of right (fury winning that fight) is wrong for what we're talking about, it's largely irrelevant.
Kind of like your logic.

So...uh... some comics came out the other day...
Yeah, I read some of them.So...uh... some comics came out the other day...

My machine of choice is the Thanoscopter.Corp is the deus ex machina of this thread.
I'm not familiar with the older series, so I don't know about that. But for the current series, yeah, that's basically it. Only a few people are actually trapped, though. The rest are just people who come and go, apparently from throughout time and space. The stories seem to be currency, too--the drinks are all free, but you have to tell a story now and then. I'm not entirely sure of everything that's going on, but that's the basic idea I'm getting right now.Okay, so what is House of Mystery about, really? I mean, I know that it's about some people who get stuck in this house and they can't get out so they just sit at the house's bar and drink and tell stories, or something. Is that the basic premise?
Yeah, but also from Gaiman's Sandman and various other Vertigo comics. They live in the Dreaming there, along with other biblical characters. Cain has the House of Mystery and Abel has the House of Secrets, and I think they get together for tea every day, during which Cain kills Abel again. Because the Dreaming is all about fiction and stories, they essentially re-enact variants of their story every day.Cain and Abel, like, from the Bible?
I'm intested in trying the book out, but it sort of sounds confusing. If the mystery about why these people are trapped and everything is supposed to revealed over time, I could probably get into it.

Wikipedia's got a pretty comprehensive entry on DC's House of Mystery: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_mystery
