lol yeah those old Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsens etc were some crazy shit. I do approve of Bane trying to kill Bats. That should always be his goal.

Atop The Fourth Wall reviews Superman Meets the Quik Bunny!  :lmfao:

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Well, you edited out some of the mistakes, at least.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

That guy has the same glasses as I do.


EDIT:  Has the the same annoying voice as I do too.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I can't believe I watched that.  It was fucking 30 minutes long!  I may kill Tim in the near future.

Finally picked up the last issue.

It's adequate.

Hell, it's better than I should have expected, given that it had to be written on the fly, and her plans either abandoned or stuffed into a rushed final chapter.  I imagine any given DC book this month sucks in the exact same fashion, and probably worse (except possibly Johnsie's babies, as they are likelier to suck in their standard manner).

ya I read a few this month and they all pretty much seem rushed, and well, they are all pointless as the reboot starts Aug 31.

Yep.  DC is going to be totally worthless for probably the next year or two at least.

I see that Marvel offers an online subscription for their comics, for 60$/year.

Offer seems to include the current series, plus many old ones. Considering I'm not really up to date with any of the series and am too lazy to go to a local comic book store this seems like a good offer?

(DC probably has something similar, but I like the Marvel heroes overall better than the DC ones.)

It sounds like a decent deal.  I've just really not been terribly into anything they've done in the past five or so years though.

I wish DC would do it.

Well, I did most my reading in the mid-80s (X-Men, Spiderman, Punisher, mainly), so I have a lot of catching up to do.

About DC . . . I liked Lobo, I liked some Batman, some Green Lantern, didn't like Flash, Superman, Wonder Woman.

I recently started reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreadstar, a 1980s sci-fi comic that a friend of mine raved about. Has anyone here read it? Any comments?

Never read it, although I've generally liked Starlin's work.  Word is that he went a little crazy during the Bush years.

Well, when you consider that DC is about to drive off a cliff, that's not so good after all.
