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

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Wow! The first Eisner award.

I went in 1986 with Fantagraphics. Drove Steve Rude and Heidi McDonald back to L.A. after.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
6 pages of JLA #1. They are not kidding about starting again.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I know I'm falling right into the Outraged Fanboygirl caetgory, but I don't care: DC has pretty much given me no incentive to keep reading after the reboot.
Except for Blue Beetle, DAMN THEM. And even then, it might suck heartily. I guess I should go look for the solicit.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Wow. That was just... ew. So profoundly ew.
I didn't even think I was all that invested in these characters and their stories, but every fresh detail on every single reboot is making me realize how wrong I was--if I didn't actually care about them, this wouldn't be half so painful.
