with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

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.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

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.

hip deep in pie

Thanks for all the suggestions! I have a long list, and off to the comics store I will go after work tomorrow.

My offline comics geek friend suggesting the Marvel reprints of Spiderman 1-20 or Fantastic Four 1-20, but we're not sure if he'd be put off by the B&W. My nephew was put off my Merlin game when I showed that to him, so I'm not sure how he'll do 1960's comics.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

NO WAY!! REALLY?!

Way.

ita: Spoiler = Steph, Tim's chica thing. She's been around. I know she's in a lot of my Batgirls and my Robins.

Thanks for the catch, Plei. I almost missed the question as I am VERY EXCITEDLY SETTING UP MY SHINY NEW COMPUTOR!!1!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Bone. Definitely.

With a big caveat that it has bugs. Lots of bugs.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Got 1602 #8 today along with the first trade of the new Teen Titans, and the first four Ultimate FF.

I said I wasn't gonna do this, and yet. Crackhead. Damn you all.
