Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Ah, Hec, you made my morning with that link.

It's fun to get lost in Avengersland.

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

Oh, those Avengers. I couldn't work out why Robin cared.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Heh, I can remember thinking when I first heard that the Avengers were going to debut on ABC (not long after Batman debuted) that it was going to be Thor, Iron Man, et al. When I found out it was something else I was actually disappointed. Then I saw Mrs. Peel...

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

When I found out it was something else I was actually disappointed. Then I saw Mrs. Peel...

Would Cathy Gale (Honor Blackman) have been a disappointment (apart from the black and white - although Emma's kinkiest one-time costumes came during the B&W era - between the Hellfire Club dominatrix costume and the harem outfit she wore...gggggrowwwwwllll)?

Probably. Never been a fan of Blackman.

Superman, Jr. and Batman, Jr. dance the funky robot and are very gay.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

P.-C., those links have scarred my brain. I have to go set myself on fire now.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I remember reading the latter in my late teens and being skeeved out that Byrne went there with the most iconic superhero.
