I read mainly issues written by King, as it happens.
Vision: still very good.
Omega Men : very funny and got heartbreaking once the penny drops and Kyle starts losing it.
Sheriff of Baghdad: it gets even better than the first issue, but it was definitely brutal, and made even more so by all the small details that make

Awesome! And whether or not it works I now feel compelled to rewatch the entire series. Again.

I'm not sure they can get him though. The Batman allusions would get even more frequent and awkward.

I always wonder if Grayson's writers are contractually obligated to mention his ass at least once in each issue.

Weirdly enough, I find it a lot more tolerable than Young Justice, in which I was put off by some extremely adolescent characters, despite the obvious qualities of the show. At least Teen Titans Go is gloriously basking in its absurd idiocy.

Maybe they finally ran out of Abercrombie models.

That or philosophical debates on the cultural channel on the radio.

Still lazily rereading Jack Vance, including the minor works. Sometimes nothing happens. It's just a crew going from planet to planet, visiting strange places and intricate societies, tasting various beers in different ports of call. I love this author. It really gives me wanderlust.

I just saw that, it made me sad. My father is a huge fan so Pierre Boulez is linked to childhood memories for me, especially car trips during the holidays when my father insisted we listened to him despite our protests.

User name comment synergy, sort of.

Ok then

I think it's too late to keep my godson from opening the captain America vs Hydra set I got him for Christmas.

The movies over? But… but… Nothing is over! Nothing! You just don't turn it off! It wasn't his movies!We asked him, he didn't ask us! And he did what he had to do to win!

Taking a page from the Prisoner: "Why?" It'd be interesting to see if it makes an interviewee implode.

I had a long discussion today with a younger colleague who assured me the Phantom Menace was, to his mind, the best Star Wars movie ever made, in great part thanks to podracing. It was perplexing.

Agreed. On the other hand, he might have launched a new annoying meme. What a dilemma.

Yes, what a twist. But the length of the apology and the amount of groveling in it is impressive.

I just saw a declaration by GRR Martin who states on his blog that his next book will be late. Apparently it isn't because of everything he does besides but because sometimes pages just don't want to get written, which I guess is something I can really relate to.

The Machine is in many ways a much more complex and moving character than Sherlock ever was.

I totally get the attraction of Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, a fascinating character written at a fascinating time. It's just this particular series. Fandoms tend I think to rely deeply on escapism (Harry Potter, Star Wars, various comics…). No such thing here, and the mysteries themselves, which could be an
