wow. I thought I was the only female who actually owned a complete Cerebus set.

One of my best friends (male) and I were discussing it. I don't own one, because, well... I can just read his, and I only buy things I plan on re-reading (Fray, Tales, etc.), but this is almost word-for-word what he said.

"...and that calls for some hard-hitting, potentially violent SCIENCE!"

An ex got me hooked on it, and now my compulsive need to know the end of the story no matter how bad it gets keeps me going. Kinda like late X-Files, except I was able to stop that. Reading his is definitely the way to go. I'm hoping I can at bankroll something better with the trade-ins once it ends...

Ooh! On a more positive note, Fables is also fabulous! Particullarly if you're a major folklore geek, like me.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Fables is probably my favorite comic right now, especially since my beloved Transmetropolitan has ended.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I s'pose this is appropriate place as any to stick this, but I've enjoyed the movie Titan AE for a fairly long time. It's a good movie, snarky, with a decent storyline and animation, and the voiceover cast is stellar.

And five minutes ago, when I'm looking at the credits, guess who helped write it? Our very own Joss.

Life's pretty cool.

"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert

I don't think Joss takes much credit for Titan AE, though, because I think that was one of his scripts that was torn apart in the Hollywood process (see other items such as X-Men and Alien 3 (or 4, I can't remember).

I bet, tho, that the snarky lines I like are Jossisms.

In my attempts to catch up on posts, I now have no idea who the comics recommendations are for, but here's my two cents:

The comics recs where for me, and thank you. I'm going to have to try and find out where I can get hold of them! Is Gaiman the Neil Gaiman who wrote 'Good Omens' with Terry Pratchett? Because if so, I think I'll start there. I loved that book!

Same Neil.

In my personal fantasy world, he would write a Buffy episode.

Mmm. Neil.

That would be great! He's one of the best fantasy writers around, to judge from what I've read (and since no comics, I guess I've missed out on some major bits).

Fairly major.

Hmm. Perhaps I should re-read American G-ds tonight.
