Oooh, I need a new webcomic.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
If you start reading SD, do NOT read the character bios up front - they are very spoilery.

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.
So the live-action Titans series is going to have an episode involving The Doom Patrol. [link]

I'm wondering if Action Comics #1000 is worth the $17 price.

For me, it almost is. I love that DC didn't decide to renumber their flagship comic. The idea of 1000 issues of this title is wonderful. Superman and Batman have earned those big numbers.

They did renumber it, for a little while, then they put the old numbers back.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
So, they retconned the reboot?

From what I gather, yes, including a convoluted storyline where both timelines were simultaneously true. And starting with this issue, the red trunks are back!

I must say, the Batman storyline with fiancee Catwoman is fascinating. It's a weird love, but it works for them. Cat will definitely cut anyone that goes after her man.

Ironic that DC went through all this effort with new 52, but it turns out the way to improve quality and increase sales was to let their flagship characters progress and move on, rather than trying to restart them from the beginning. Clark and Lois are happily married with a kid, and Bruce and Selina are engaged. How about that?
