"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

That looks hilarious. I might have to go buy it.

Any way it can be funnier than Batman: Odyssey?

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

There's a Northanger Abbey comic!!??!!

Why shouldn't there be?

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

IO9 has a list (desperately in need of a copyeditor) of ten great standalone comics in ongoing series.

I'm pretty sure at least two of these are favorites of Ple.

Thank you for the warning.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

The Green Lantern series premiers tonight. It’s by Bruce Timm, and it’s getting good word of mouth.

However, just like the Young Justice premier last year, we won’t get to see more of it until January.

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

I just watched it. Good stuff. Took me a few minutes to get used to the animation, but I like it. Story has potential.

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.

Young Justice:

Hey, Super Cycle! Thought that's where they were going with it.

Next week's episode is supposed to be the one written by Peter David.

Didn't realize GL was premiering tonight. From the promo stuff, Bruce Timm's style looks really weird in CG to me.

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

Reading the AVClub interview with Brian Azzarello (100 Bullets, et al) - I didn't realize he was married to Jill Thompson!

Comic book power couple!
