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.)

(1) I am on board for Blue Beetle squee any time. It seriously gets better from where you are.

(2) Yeah, as I watched more and more of YJ, I feel like they really did right by the character (although the show seems to indicate he lives in a big fancy house, which threw me). There are some differences (which is why I freaked out at the comment about the Scarab being Kord tech), but it really makes me feel like DC really loved that iteration of Blue Beetle, to the point of putting him in YJ and making him true to the comic.

(3) If Paco and Brenda were in YJ, even as a cameo, I would have died from happiness. PACO FOREVER.

Kalshane, what's your source for stuff like that?

Is Pirate Bay still around? That used to be my source, after the dearly departed Demonoid.

I clearly had a great source, because the most time-consuming part of my last storage shuffle was a huge amount of CBRs, but I managed to have no trail back to source. I don't know if it was Demonoid, or somewhere still extant.

I do remember trying to download all the Superman from ever, and it's the frustrating torrent methodology in that all the files exist, but none are complete, because I didn't wait the months it would have taken to complete that low-traffic transfer. Next time, delete those before trying to move the comic folder.

I just Googled the relevant information. Sadly, my go-to ahemming sources have all died off over the years, so I'm stuck with a search engine and a prayer these days. (Not that I ahem very much anymore, anyway.) EZTV tends to my go-to for TV stuff, though.

Well, whoever is charge of DC Animation seems to like the Jaime Blue Beetle (since they also used him on Batman: The Brave and the Bold).

As for Young Justice, I'm sure a lot of that is on Greg Weisman. He's got a Q&A site (http://s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/) and on there he mentioned when they were creating the show, DC said "You can use these characters, but not these characters." Which is part of why we got the Team membership we did. Then, when they were prepping for Season 2, DC said "Okay, use whatever characters you want. Have fun."

Has anyone been following recent issues of Captain Marvel? I've been reading my neighbor's copies, and will probably buy the trade when it comes out.

Marvel Captain Marvel or DC Captain Marvel? (Not that I'm reading either, at the moment.)

Marvel Captain Marvel. Well, Ms. Marvel, I guess, but as she's a freakin' Air Force Major, I'm not entirely sure what's appropriate. [link] I'm loving the historical women pilot story lines in recent issues.

I liked Ms. Marvel on Avengers: EMH, but I haven't read any of the comics with her in it.

Just read BB #16 and that's one of the most fun comic books I've read in awhile. (I believe Steph or somebody linked to the "porsche wish" page back in the day, because I remembered it, but it was still awesome.)
