So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

One panel was a Captain America retrospective, with a husband/wife team who ink and color some of the current Cap titles, as well as 87-year-old Allen Bellman, who was drawing Cap back in the early 1940s. I have to say, Bellman was so great to listen to. He got all teary when he said that in his wildest dreams, when he was 19 years old and drawing Cap in the bullpen, he would never have thought in 2011 he'd be on the red carpet* at the premiere of the movie.

That makes ME teary!

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

Interesting article about Catwoman and Starfire's sexual escapades. And why it's not slut-shaming. I'm grumpy now. And that final Batman/Catwoman picture weirds me out.

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

Thanks - nice article, if depressing as hell.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Holy crap, that's depressing.

That is depressing.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

My poor sweet Kory. Let's hope it's just a head injury and she'll come back round.

The author was accused of slut-shaming with a previous piece. This article contains her rebuttal.

Okay, I think I misunderstood what you posted. I thought that by

Interesting article about Catwoman and Starfire's sexual escapades. And why it's not slut-shaming.

you meant that the article was about how DC's current writing of Catwoman and Starfire isn't slut-shaming.
