I've had this ongoing discussion with my comic shop owner. He enjoys the book but wasn't as invested in the Bat Family as I am. He enjoys the new Batgirl because that last Batgirl run was so depressing. I've said since day one that this was the book they should have done with Stephanie Brown instead of dumbing down…

I can agree with this. While Babs is always my Batgirl at heart, I love Stephanie Brown. Also, Oracle was a beast. A well-rounded character who overcame a lot in her days. I also hate the "reimagining" of Barbara lately. It's like they de-aged her 10 years, took away all of her experiences with the top tier of…

As Oracle, Barbara was truly unique, the first "information age" heroine, fighting crime with her brain and computer skills, a heroine created before the dawn of the internet really took off. She became defined as more than just "female" Batman, she created the Birds of Prey herself and lead them, and she refused to…

Personally, it was the end of Oracle that really did it for me. I feel like Barbara Gordon is a much more generic character now. They've basically made her a redheaded Stephanie Brown.

Back before my face and body submitted to gravity, I spent two years shaking my ass at a relatively 'classy' chain in the south. We had to wear gowns on the floor while cruisin' for customers, and if some of the more *assertive* ladies happened to catch anyone giving extras in the VIP, they would get the shit kicked…

No need to design anything. Clippard pneumatics sells miniature self-relieving regulators that are smaller than a AAA battery and would easily accomplish the task. All that would be needed to adapt such a regulator to a standard inflation needle is a few off the shelf fittings. Total cost would be less than $20 and be…

I agree that the takes are crazy but I'm confused at how often people say, "they may have cheated, but they would have won anyway." Is that the way it works, now? You only have to follow the rules to the degree that you can plausibly say breaking them didn't affect the outcome?

You don't need to be force sensitive, but it's highly recommended. A lightsaber has no mass and therefore it would be difficult to completely track where the blade is as you use it. Han Solo has used one in the movies, and Boba Fett used one against Vader in an EU comic, so it's definitely possible. However imagine…

I have 4 kids and ergo am an expert on every damn thing. So here's what you do:

SAY NO. Say it all the time Say it a lot. Nooooooooooo.

I always read his name as "Alan Rickman" and I go through a split second of panic and confusion.

What a star. Everything she does makes me smile.

I kept reading Oz's comments and thinking, believe it or not, of Richard Simmons. No matter how many jokes are made about the guy, no matter what a weirdo he has been/has become (I know he's said and done some pretty offensive things in the recent past), he stuck to a message of loving yourself and not letting people…

Ninja Fucking Gaiden. I have nightmares about the final level. Never beat it . . . never will.

To be fair, people really should shout "AVAST" more often.

I shit you not this was an episode of Degrassi recently. Some character got in trouble for having a bra strap showing and as revenge the next day wore her bra over her shirt. I guess in this case, Degrassi wasn't too over the top.
