"I've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

There were a couple of really great ones in the Supergirl section. One involving the Bat.

Mmm-hmm. I thought of you when I saw that one.

Wait, when Supergirl is wearing a Bat-tat, you think of ME?!?!!!?

Wuh-huh?

What is even happening?

I love the Raggedy Ann and Andy pieces, and the Harry Potter, too.

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

Wow:

Dark Horse Comics, publisher of the forthcoming Buffy the Vampire Slayer comic, is hosting a Buffy writing contest. In 250 words or less, describe how Buffy has changed your life. I know, I know, only 250 words. People have written entire treatise on the subject, but you're just going to have to embrace the pithy and make every syllable count. Joss Whedon will be selecting the winner and five runners-up himself. What will the numero uno winner receive? Oh, it's almost too cool for words. In addition to a Buffy lithograph and a signed copy of the first issue, you will appear in an upcoming issue of the comic. You - in comic form - with Buffy! Well, maybe, you'll be with Buffy. You might be in some vampire crowd shot or something. It's hard to say. What's the life of a comic book extra like anyway?
