The obscure "Raise the Flag" miniseries from 2008 or so is also by Ostrander, and is really excellent, a hidden gem. I just wish they hadn't had to resurrect Rick Flag; his death in the original series was meaningful.

DC really can't figure out how to do costumes any more. They should just put Deadshot back in a top hat and tails.

Watch out for ol' Woodley Sideboob. He'll rustle your cattle right out the pasture if you're not careful.

One of the best reasons to go back to 60s go-go Batman. We've had leather daddy Batman long enough; time for Falstaffian bear Batman.

I remember that! "They were normal at birth."

Batman's a chiclet man.

Yeah, no condoms needed in that utility belt.

Loveline would have been so much better if there were any simmering homoeroticism between Drew and Corolla, but there was nothing, which makes sense, because Corolla is the least sexy person alive.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

I still think G.I. Jane is Moore's best movie and best performance.

"It's slobberin' time!"

Seems like a good reason for a political party not to nominate someone who's been heavily involved in reality TV!

It's impossible to imagine who could play him in the HBO movie directed by Jay Roach. They should just cast a sack of rotten oranges and do the voice electronically.

See? This one hits so close to home.

Certainly the most joyful of all X-Men comics. He set the tone in his first issue.

Repeated little bits of foreign language and accent are a Claremont tic you have to live with if you want to enjoy mid-period X-Men comics. "Tovarisch!" "Yer move, bub." "The focused totality of my telepathic powers!" "Ah'll absorb him, body n' soul!" "Mein freund." "Ach, accushla!"

I would like Herzog to make a documentary about my middle school. He seems like he would get it.

"Of course, there's a lot of misery. But it is the same misery that is all around us. The trees here are in misery, and the birds are in misery. I don't think they - they sing. They just screech in pain."

They let the bunny pick, I assume.
