Thank you!
Thank you!
Ok. I will take a stab at it later this evening, assuming the internet isn't out at home.
I fucking hated BF. It was awful. To this day, I still have not seen B&R.
It even did the "throw a bunch of coins up to confuse Two-Face" thing before the movie did.
I've avoided the Tolerability Index because I waste enough time on the AV Club at work as it is. But if the AV Club comments are going to become unusable, that concern is rendered entirely moot. How do I sign up, again?
Out of the blue on Saturday, L'il Punk asked me to play Lego Batman 3. It was somewhat bittersweet using a little Batman character to save a little Adam West character on the day of West's death, to be sure. But I realized I never finished that playthrough, so that started a rush to finish up collecting the last two…
Last night I dug out Phil Jimenez' Wonder Woman run and read about 8 issues or so into it. That Bat-Family/WW-Family team-up was just as great as I remember - right up until the literal deus ex machina. The art is gorgeous, though, and I still really really enjoy the "day in the life" issue with Lois Lane.
Yeah, this is… this is not anything like Watership Down. This is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on acid, is what it is.
It's someone trying too hard to make the animals sound like animals instead of people. A sort of low-grade Tony Burgess, if you will.
D'oh! Stupid HTML tags!
Y'know… the "Greek" way.
You could always take a day and visit Hub City. Gotham doesn't look so bad in comparison.
I think the rest of that followed as soon as you typed "Chaykin."
Real estate.
I've always said, artisanal batarangs are the best batarangs.
There's a really good Batman story by Andrew Vacchs which posits that the gunman on that fateful night of the Waynes' murder was not gunning for Thomas (as the Lew Moxon retcons would have you believe) but rather for Martha. Because while Thomas Wayne was a gifted doctor, Martha Wayne happened to be a lawyer. Who…
That the Jewish Shadow.
This is part and parcel of why I flipped back to enjoying the '66 show, after decrying it in my teens and twenties. Batman only makes sense in the kind of heightened reality of comic books and cartoons - trying to make him "realistic" just unravels the whole thing.
Very few real-life billionaires care about crime as much as Bruce Wayne does.
Doyle, be quiet! Watson was explaining something.
