Ha, thanks for posting these; I always enjoy them. I like the group that dressed up as all the people from the "Gangnam Style" video. Heh.
Other Media 2: It's Astounishing!
Discussion of comics, graphic novels, and more. Except for capes. No capes!

You're welcome. They always put a big smile on my face. Such odd things that can give us joy. Yeah, the group dressed as the notable people from the Gangnam Style video was pretty good. The cast of FF VII, including a Cait Sith on her moogle-costumed (boy)friend's shoulders was another great group shot.
Lots of great little moments in this one, even if you don't know the characters.
I liked the row of L's.
L's?
Young Justice:
Someone over at Onion AV Club mentioned that Bart's presence has already altered the timeline because he rescued Jaime from The Reach.
I thought about it, and would take it even further. Without Bart, they don't rescue Jaime. Without Jaime, the rescue mission fails as Black Beetle already all of The Team's heavy hitters down and the Bio-ship sealed off.
I doubt that's enough to change Bart 's future, but that's got to be significant.
L's?
From Death Note.
Ah, okay. Haven't seen that one. I'm horribly out of the loop when it comes to anime these days.
I haven't seen the anime, just read the manga.
So Steph will be happy to know I've ahemmed the original run of Jaime as Blue Beetle and am finding it to be great stuff. (I just finished issue 8.)
Oh my god, yes. PACO FOREVER. Well, you may not have gotten to the great Paco stuff yet, but it's coming.
Seriously, that whole run is gold right through issue 24. I will give props to DC for hanging on to it long past the point its sales justified dumping it (which was unfortunately really early).
I think I love the supporting cast as much as Jaime. Maybe more. Especially Paco and Brenda. And Jaime's parents.
Yes, the supporting cast is wonderful. I like how (at least so far) Jaime's civilian life and those around him are at least as important, if not more so, than the hero stuff.
It also makes me want to say that Young Justice did right by the character, because comic Jaime and show Jaime feel very much like the same person (though I'm kind of disappointed we haven't at least gotten a Brenda and Paco cameo in his episodes.)
