Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Thanks, Tom!

That was, in fact, sheer genius.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I forgot how good that was. "You're lucky I didn't cut you to ribbons!" "Not with a Y-7 rating, you won't."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Marvel expands the Astonishing line.

What's also astounishing is how bad the X-Men art is. What the hell is up with those anatomies? And Storm's costume.

Win for her hair, though. I really like her look from the head up.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeeeah, that art is not so hot. The Spidey/Wolvie art looks okay, though.

I have finished Superman: The Animated Series! I liked it way more than I expected to.

DC Announces New Publisher – All Five Of Them!

I'm sure that will work out well.

I have finished Superman: The Animated Series! I liked it way more than I expected to.

It started out slow, but the series really started going when it got into Kirby's Fourth World stuff.

I still don't understand why Kaliban, genetically from New Genesis, looks like Darkseid, and Orion, genetically from Apokolips, looks like the High Father. Also, Granny Goodness is silly.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Kaliban isn't from New Genesis, it was Scott Free that was traded for Orion in Darkseid & Highfather's kid swap meet. And Orion uses Mother Box to alter his features so he fits in with other folks on New Genesis.
