"Good Day" is from 1996 (the Eventually album), not 2006. 

Or Leon the dope addict from Deadwood!

Seriously, why isn't that on DVD? It's a disgrace!

He was also the best (and scariest!) part of the otherwise middling Panic Room. He had a smaller but also good part in the Three Burials of Esquwhatever That Guy's Name Is.

Much like Mick Jagger, he's definitely aged into his looks.

Oliver, a great review as usual, but I'm a little surprised you didn't single out Jeffrey Combs' voice work as the Question as a large part of what makes this version of the character so great. 

Miracle at St. Anna's seriously pissed me off, because there's a lot of great stories that could be told about black troops in WWII, but that sure as shit wasn't one of them.

Agreed. Something about his delivery of, "I've been with a black woman!" just slayed me.

It really is:

One of us! One of us!

Look, they're both great books, and we can all agree that even before this…unpleasantness, Elmo was nothing more than a second-rate Grover.

I doubt they even did that. As an obvious parody, this would seem to fall squarely within the realm of Fair Use.

Doesn't everybody? I mean, it's objectively awesome.

Oh, and I have to give another shoutout to "Task Force X," the ersatz Suicide Squad episode. How many superhero cartoons can make you root for the bad guys?

Oh, the Question is JLU MVP, as far as I'm concerned. His relationship with the Huntress is particularly great, as seen in "Double Date" and "Grudge Match."

Sad news. Bobby was great. 

Says he's got a bad cough, 'bout to get it paid off.

"The answer is no."

Yup, that's the one.

I believe that song's about his friend Robert Bingham, who died young, so it's a pretty appropriate choice. Great song, too.
