Thank you! I love him! I love assassin kids. Man, my childhood was wasted.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I loaned out my copy of Batman & Son, but I'm sure there's other fun stuff in it.
And aha -- I think Colin must be Colin Wilkes, AKA "Abuse." Which naturally led to this:
Robin gave Colin the Cycle of Abuse, a trike, because he thought Abuse looked stupid walking with his trench coat.
Comics, everybody!

Cycle of Abuse? That hurts.

Okay, I picked up Batman and Son, and the love still runs strong. I also grabbed the first six Batman Incorporated, because I just felt like getting my hands wet with a series, and I have no sense. There's a good reason I've stopped collecting comics so many times.
Talking of Colin, the first thing I saw when I walked into the store was a Eureka comic book, and my mind blew and remained blown for a few minutes. Very surreal.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Has everyone read Daytripper ? Because it is beautiful and gorgeous.

I have! And yes.
I don't know how to talk about it but there was a lot of hype and I was trying not to build it up in my head before I read it and it turns out that it's great and lovely and moving. And I want to reread it except I have this huge pile of books & comics to read for the first time before I can think about rereading anything because I'm terrible.

Yeah, I was hoping not to be disappointed, and it was just so lovely and understated and even though I felt like I didn't really get to KNOW these characters in the span of ten issues, they still felt real in a way.
I also read Nick Spencer's Jimmy Olsen book, which I loved! So much fun, and very clever.

I am very sad I don't own this comic.
