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

10 Craziest Superman/Batman Stories.

I like IO9 because they'll give a hat tip to slash, even if most of their audience thinks it's icky. It's a sci fi nerd site run by fangirls.

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

It's a sci fi nerd site run by fangirls.

Having met Annalee and Charlie, kinky ones at that.

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

Their editorial staff is out of line with the masses that come by, as is evidenced every time they talk about race and half the time they talk about gender. It can get pretty ugly.

But they're also pretty slash and fanfic friendly, and most of their regulars are "regular" sci fi nerd guys who have a passing interest in fic and little in slash. And then there's a cadre of squeeing girls (I've heard) who totally cheer them along. I mean, I do love that any time Cassandra Clare gets mentioned, one person brings up plagiarism, and most people have no idea what it's about. But one person mentions it.

And some guy usually mentions Rule 34 with disdain, and then five girls jump up cheering.

It's a fun place. They guess at my dark side.

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

Read Afrodisiac online for free. You really should.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I have started down the well-trod path of reading lots of Transmetropolitan in a short period of time. I'm not done yet.

I went in fully expecting to be off-put enough to not get very far in before I had to put it down (I tend to have a very low tolerance for random violence, drug use, and extreme misanthropy). But there was enough likability in Spider from early enough to keep me reading.

Also, omgwtf introduction by Patrick Stewart?!

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

TOTALLY FANBOY introduction by Patrick Stewart, I think you meant to say.
