Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think Daredevil's only hope in a fight against Iron Man is to crack open a bottle of Jack Daniels and wave it around until Stark takes his helmet off so he can have a drink.

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

Maybe he could hire Deadshot to shoot a toothpick through the eye slits in Tony's helmet.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Looks like they're already talking movie [link]

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

He could threaten Stark with a giant lawsuit!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

He could threaten Stark with a giant lawsuit!

Yeah, cause Tony Stark can't afford a decent army of lawyers to bury a two man office.

You know, Matt has the entire Hand at his disposal now. They can take on an army of lawyers pretty handily.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Chatty!co-worker brought in the FCBD issue of The Tick for me to read, which I have just done. Good stuff. Especially the sound effects in the fight scenes.

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.

Kalshane, at the time YJ launched Impulse, Superboy and Robin all had their own series, so PAD had to use the costumes they had in their main books...

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm not blaming him for the costumes, CaBil (and he's a writer, not an artist anyway), I just think some of them are pretty silly-looking.

I do have to say I'm impressed with how DC managed to update the Robin costume to make it actually look cool (which the original costume very much was not) but still be recongizable as Robin. Poor Dick Grayson spent a lot of time wearing some terrible costumes between Robin and the original Nightwing costume.

I've made it through the Sins of Youth crossover and into Empress joining the team. The remaining characters have grown on me, and I do like Cissie and Cassie's friendship. I also like that Cissie's mother has become less of a caricature now that her daughter has given up on the superhero business. I'm also glad the Fiit and Maad are starting to get more to do beyond being a bad pun and randomly showing up to yell at the team.

I got fun mail today! Yay, thanks, DJ! Atomic Robo was a hoot as expected, and Maintenance was also pretty amusing.
