Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Most comics discussion goes in Jossverse.

That was what I thought, but I was wondering if I was wrong.

No big.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And a Batman thread doesn't do that much for the Nightwing lovers, strictly.

This is why comics are confusing and headache-inducing.

Hmm. And now I feel guilty because I can't stop babbling about comics. I feel like I need to write a livejournal post where I promise not to let comics fandom devour me from my bottom, or something...

Edited to say that, obviously, that's my weird thing, and yeah, shutting up now.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Vandal Savage is in 1602? How? He's a DC character.

And there we show how little I know about these comicverses. Who's the dude with the mirrors, and the pointy goatee, then?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

SA, he's Dr. Stephen Strange.

Thanks to you crackheads, I went to Half-Price Books at lunch and happened to find Nightwing: Ties That Bind. And so I bought it.

Anne, Vonnie, Nutty, (or any other long-term Homicide viewer) Do we ever find out how Mr. Russert kicked it?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

According to the character bios here, Russert's husband died of cancer. I vaguely recall Russert having this conversation with Munch, although I can't exactly remember from which episode.

Thanks.I picked the wrong search term in Google.(I had this idea for a drabble and I didn't want to get stomped with canon, huh?)And, cool, the Munchkin exes are Gwen, Maria, and Nancy...I've been trying to track it for a while. But not as long as I wondered what "iguana style" was.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Heh. It took me a few different searches as well. I *thought* it was some kind of terminal illness but the details were just out of my mind's reach, you know? Then of course I had to go all obsessed and *had to* find out.

Guess there's a little Bayliss in all of us. Sadly, I do not mean porn. Sigh.
