It does allow a really elegant figure/ground relationship, but I'm not sure most artists could pull it off. Love it, here, though!

Character generation requires an IQ test, a 40 yard dash, a distance run, a dead lift, joke telling, and juggling! I made this up, but I think these are some funny metrics that fit some typical attributes.

I might have agreed with you, but Oscar Pistorius was acquitted, because the judge couldn't see through a door. While I realize that this was in another country, it does serve to remind us how willfully blind people are willing to be.

Just "Revhenge"

Have they said how thick it is?

I heard an NPR story. I think it was Cameron who was being laid off and he was having a bit of a midlife crisis about it.

I think that a couple of years ago, that idea was floating around, more or less.

I'd watch that!

You said it! She could be Egon!

Great choices!

This is the best explanation that I've heard. Nicely done!

The audiobook is read by John Darnielle, as well. He has a pretty good storyteller's voice, probably refined by years decades on stage

I would have guessed that that title was a Mountain Goats song, if it weren't a book!

Authors responding to criticism with bravery is such a great sentiment. It could even get commenters to remember that being constructive can help writers instead of just bashing them!

I'm going to save it, too. It's getting limited theatrical release, this weekend, so there's still a chance that it will make it to Netflix.

If this is the way we're going, shouldn't we call Marvel "Disney"? In all seriousness, Marvel is coming off of a very good run, but it doesn't discount their false starts from a decade ago. Daredevil, Hulk Movies, Ghost Rider, there have been some bumps before they started to establish a reliable product. DC hasn't…

I was mostly thinking in the last few years. I'll admit that I skipped Green Lantern, but if we go further back, good superhero movies were the exception, not the rule.

I see your point, but probably once they get to JLA, Superman could be conveniently off planet.

Don't they usually bash DC movies for being too serious? I mean Marvel made THOR! I loved it, but it was seriously campy!

In all comic universes, it seems like Earth is a hotspot. MCU has pretty careful ways of showing the events of one movie while others are happening (Hulk referenced in Iron Man, for instance).
