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

How much of this did John Rogers write?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

How much of this did John Rogers write?

I'd have to dig my issues out. Not a ton, I don't think.

Relatedly, the new epsiode of YJ is downloading right now. Woo! But we're leaving in a bit to go see Les Miz, so I'll have to watch it tonight.

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.

Quick glance- He co-wrote the first 10 with Giffens, then was solo through book 25 (with I think 3 off for other writers) and then was a revolving door of writers for the next 5 issues, followed by Matthew Sturges for the last 5.

Cereal:

Watched Young Justice today.

Wow, The Reach is just making everyone look like idiots. They could really use Batman right now.

Of course, I'm not sure how smart/savvy Captain Atom is supposed to be. My only familiarity with him is from the JLU show and the jokey JLI comics.

ETA: I can't believe I almost forgot. Mal rocks !

So when I said "not a ton," what I meant was "listen to Kalshane."

It helps I just finished reading them and could quickly bring them up on my computer.

YJ:

Yikes! Psimon. I have a bad feeling that not only is he going to discover Kaldur and Artemis are double agents, but he's going to reprogram him as a triple agent.

I'm also rather skeptical of the Green Beetle. His appearance seems rather convenient.

ETA: I just saw that the Green Beetle's real name is B’aars O’ohm. Cute.

YJ: If they don’t have a fight scene between Nightwing and Deathstroke before the end of the season, I’m going to be SO disappointed.

Der. My TiVo has been skipping YJ episodes, because they have all (finishing today) had 2012 dates on them. Someone needs to fix their shit. I'm not picky about who, but it needs to happen.

So I'm downloading to catch up. Don't ask why discussions of those episodes took this long to wake me up. No flattering explanation.

This week’s episode airs again tomorrow morning, ita.
