With Jeph Loeb writing it, Superman/Batman (Actual Comic Title) is about as close to canon as you can get and still have plausible deniability. They're disturbingly married.
Now if only they could get someone with the named Leopold to do the art....
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

most of Batman's slashy potential being tied up in his habit of taking nubile teenage acrobats into his home and dressing them up in short pants or leather.
Funny, I thought this power was in the nipple suit.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
However, I've seen Velvet Goldmine often enough (I've owned it for five years) to half-expect my Batman to put on eyeliner and masturbate to pictures of Ewan boykissage.
Yes, this.
Of course, this explains one of my problems with the current Star Wars movies. I kept expecting Obi-Wan to either be covered in glitter or to start singing and take off his pants.

I don't expect it. I'm just really, really hopeful.
And, thusfar, disappointed.

I have to give him props though, Ewan's flawless vocal imitation of Alec Guinness is the one shining positive of the trilogy so far.

Ewan has definitely been the one thing I've been able to focus on to at least have the semblence of a good time. However, all the pictures from RotS look like he's been taking beard grooming advice from John Crichton.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The best I can say about Ewan in the one trilogy movie I saw was that he hasn't been tarnished in my mind by the association. Unlike, sadly, Samuel L and Liam Neeson.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
The Star Wars films have given Ewan the money to allow him to show us his dick many, many more times.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
