Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I went looking for Y: The Last Man in my library today, and it's shelved in Non-Fiction. They have a whole complicated rationale behind it, but it seems to be basically about keeping it away from the kids.
(Note: I obviously haven't read it, so avoiding big spoilers would be nice.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What other comics do they have shelved there?
I really need to finish that run. I forget where I stopped reading.

A few issues of Spiderman. Some stuff I didn't recognize. Almost all of the X-Men, Justice League, etc. stuff is shelved in the Teen section.

Graphic novels are in the 741.5 section, yeah. Or they're in the Teen Zone.

Booooo! Well, it's Vertigo, I guess, so.

So I watched the trailer for Batman — Under the Red Hood that was on the Justice League DVD. The most traumatic part about it? Seeing what Judd Winnick looks like. The dude is OLD.

Y: The Last Man
I'm just over halfway through this and loving it. My brother and I have discussed how this is a comic that would make a kickass TV series, preferably HBO/Showtime (otherwise it would have to be toned down a lot).

I mean seriously, they showed Judd talking, and I was like, "That's not the guy who was on the Real W--oh. Right..."
In other news, "Serenity: The Shepherd's Tale" will dock in stores this November.

Isn't it great???? I'd love it as an HBO series! Who would you cast?
