I really like the late-'80s aesthetic of stuff like Arkham Asylum, early Hellblazer, his Doom Patrol stuff… it would be terrible if comics were still like that, but I enjoy the period feel of them now.

Probably less than being called "Nerdherder", I would assume.

Hah, I never think to look for comics on Amazon or in the library. Digging through old back-issue bins in stinky comic shops and conventions is so deeply ingrained in my thought process.

Hah, well it is true, I'm sorry to say (not that I can really prove it, I suppose). Everyone was disappointed when they took it out.

Sadly no, because I've never been able to actually find it.

Fun Fact- my name is in the credits of Arkham City, because I was a tester on it for about a year and a half. Here's a neat tidbit- for a long time during development, the [A] button was a dedicated "taunt" button and every time you'd press it, Batman would growl out some hardass line like "ISN'T IT A SCHOOL NIGHT?"…

I honestly love Arkham Asylum, but it's a flawed work for sure. I think it works best when held completely separate from any kind of Batman continuity, just as a sort of creepy "what-if" story held together by lots of esoteric references.

We like to have fun here at the AV Club. Proper, scientifically-backed fun!

I really like Berenthal as the Punisher but you're definitely right that he's not a fucking brick shithouse like Ray Stevenson. Nobody else has looked more like he stepped off the panel than Ray.

There's so much I like about that movie but the beginning is weirdly hard to get through. If I try to watch if from the start, I get bored, but if I come in partway through, I'm in it til the end.

Well, we got to have a nice chat at least.

Only carbon-14. Carbon-13 and carbon-12 (the most common kind of carbon by a vast amount) are stable isotopes.

I'm not bringing it up in the context of the pay gap, I'm just highlighting it because Chris Evans is not worth paying that much money.

It looks like it's been kind of a controversy recently but his salary is in fact an anomaly. He's getting more than anyone else by quite a bit. The next-highest earner (Gary Lineker) apparently gets 1.8 million pounds.

Well I mean, it's wrong because gold is an element and thus can't be carbon-dated.

Hey, gold's gold no matter when it's from.

Apparently, former Top Gear host and BBC Radio 2 personality Chris Evans made the equivalent of $2.9 million last year

You're never really done getting away with a murder.

Don't forget- he was Princess Leia's dad, too.

Man, Brimstone was great. If it had started airing 10 years later, I think it would have gotten 5 seasons at least.
