Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

My library has comics I can borrow and read on my iPad, so I've started Lumberjanes.

I recently saw that my library does that, too! I love living in the future. I also love Lumberjanes.

DC is re-re-re-re-re-re-re-launching their titles with #1s in June

[link]

With "Rebirth," the mainline DC Universe titles will be renumbered with new #1s -- except for "Action Comics" and "Detective Comics," the two longest-running series in DC's lineup, which will return to their original numbering at #957 and #934, respectively. All DCU books will return to a $2.99 price point (currently their lineup is split between $3.99 and $2.99 single issues)

That would be awesome, if I thought that DC would actually stick to $2.99.

One of Cincy's comic cons got Rob Liefeld as the headliner. I'm not a dick, so I would never wait in line to give him shit, but part of me wants to run by his table yelling "POUCHES!!!!!"

But given how well the Deadpool movie did, getting him for the comic con is a great move on their part.

Ha! That's hilarious. My plan was less to wait in line for a ppuch sketch, and more to just run past the table yelling "POUCHES!!!!!"

(I wouldn't actually do that, but the temptation is great.)

If/when Cable shows up in the Deadpool sequel, he damn well better have a RIDICULOUS number of pouches.
