Right?! Once I'm finished, I may just read it again.

It's a great story. I've just got to the Justice Lords epsiode. Too much fun.

Good luck!

My cousin just sold his old collection, but saved two back issues to send to me as mementos. Man, I was too young to see the homo-erotic subtext of Slaine.

Hooray for many varieties of apples!

I'll try. You're very sweet to say so. It's a very appropriate user name. Hope Blighty is treating you well.

Also, with appropriate apologies, here's another long Pratchett review,

Still stuck in the last few pages of Maskerade since I foolishly picked up volume one of Locke and Key as bathroom reading and have not been able to put it down since. It is so damn good, I keep sneaking away from my desk to read a couple more pages of volume six. So good.

Loving Rick and Morty season 2. So brilliant. Also trying to re-watch all of Justice League/Unlimited and gearing up to finally take on season 4 of Adventure time.

It could play well either way. As far as I can see, the key, whether live or animated, is the balance between the realistic and unrealistic elements.

This comic is really, really good, so I hope this movie is too.

Goddamn. I'm tearing up a little, again, for Jim Henson. Will there ever be another like him? But thank you Steve Whitmire for carrying on.

Those titles are in a font that seems inspired by the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

That's pretty petty and sad. The Iraq stuff was standard issue arguing over the war, with that particular nastiness that anonymity sometimes brings out of comic fans.

I do remember how vicious the message boards could be, especially during the war in Iraq.

I haven't read either site in ten years. I'll have to take your word for it.

"Actually, the capital of Canada is Ottawa."
"What, do you think we're stupid? To Toronto! The capital!"

I thought I read that column on Newsarama.

Ugh, that Superman story was just awful. I had forgotten about it, and I was happy.

I think you're thinking of Carpe Jugulum. In that one Granny "retires", in a sense, and Nanny is forced into her role. My favourite part of that is when Nanny rebels. She says something like "I'm no good at thinking like Granny but I'm damn good at acting like me." I think she's arming herself at the time.
