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

How mad is Reed Richards? IO9 is having a mad scientist smackdown between him and Walter Noble, and Walter's winning handily.

I'd vote for Walter, simply because Walter cannot pass. But from reading the comments, Richard's way nuttier than I'd picked up from my casual acquaintance with the F4.

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

Googling for Emmett's school turned up this random image which I share with Tep, Ple and amych.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I have that issue.

Of course.

That perspective is iffy.

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.

Just put in an order for the Scott Pilgrim books. Amazon's got them on sale for $4 to $5 each right now.

Hey Kalshane! Weren't you a Matt Murton fan when he was with the Cubs? He's having a great year playing in Japan, threatening Ichiro's single season hits recod.

Yeah, Hec, I was. Glad to hear he found a place to shine.

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

What if Frank Miller wrote history books?

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

Those are great, Tom.

So I'm in the Parc Guell gift shop when I see something awesomely ridiculous:

Batman: Barcelona: El Caballero del Dragon

WHAT! How did I not know about this? It was written by Mark Waid and everything; it came out last year. I had to buy it, especially since it was only 6 Euros for a hardback 64-page one-shot. And then I got one for my brother because he would also appreciate the hilarity of Killer Croc yelling, "Eres hombre muerto!" (Followed by "Yaaah! Mis ojos!") Bats chases Croc through Las Ramblas and they do battle on La Sagrada Familia (which appears to have been transposed to the Gothic Quarter).

Best souvenir ever?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

OMG P-C HOW MANY COPIES DO THEY HAVE????
