Ah, hell.
I forgot to remind the boy to pick up my effin' Nightwing #92. Crap.
Hmm.
Emergency shopping may be in order.
See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

There was a minor fight in my office today over whether Nightwing is anything more than a pale imitation of his mentor. The best comment in it went to the design technology lead, who sagely commented, "Let Nightwing be Nightwing."

Does anyone have some recs of comics that would be good for a 7 year old?
I don't read it myself - but my comic shop guy rec'd Thundercats when I wanted to get my 9-year-old nephew some comics and he really loves the series.

Hey. New board.

Bone. Definitely.
Also, Beanworld.
Disclaimer: I like indy comics. Neither of these have superheroes. Move along if you want superheroes.

Huh.
Your design tech lead is wise.
How do they all feel about Tim? Or, alternately, about the current sitch WRT Robin.

I am totally not up to speed on what the current sitch wrt Robin might be -- whitefont?
The major comics geek in the office is strongly anti-DCU, and I'm afraid to ask. I think the design tech lead was just trying to make peace, but he still spoke wise.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Mish, Tim's run as Robin is ending (hopefully temporarily), as his parents found out about the whole Robin thing and were Not Pleased. So Spoiler is gonna take over (and be the first she-Robin in the main continuity) .

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
NO WAY!! REALLY?!
Damn, I gotta start buyin' comics again!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Amych, where's Spoiler from? I'm reading Outsiders and the last Robin, and haven't seen that ... bit.

1602 #8 has been acquired.
In other news, my favorite comics shop is moving on May 1. To within walking distance of my house.
This is either very, very good or very, very bad.
