You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
DX -- Million Year Picnic still has copies. You want me to pick up a copy for you?
Jon, that would be great. Thanks.

It was me! I just picked it up today (the books were delayed at my store), and I think the neighbors may have been startled by the Shout of Geek Joy when I read the issue. Sure put me in a good mood.
Seekrit message to Plei concerning Batgirl and BOP current continuity: I imagine Batgirl #51 is still before the Birds of Prey storyline, although there is really no hard evidence for it. I think the main reason for the continuity warnings was to make sure the BOP storyline didn't have to reflect whether Batgirls was on the outs with Batman or not.

Jeff, my brain exploded today as I tried to sort out timing while I was stuck in traffic. I mean, I know that the Batgirl Soul storyline takes place after Nightwing 87, because Babs mentions the break-up, leading to Cass whomping on Dick. But, we're up to what? Nightwing 92? and not much time has passed *there*, because they've just buried the dead from the apartment explosion, which took place shortly after the circus fire and corresponding really bad idea post-split comfort sex, but it seems a bunch has passed in BoP.
Wait. Which issue of BoP does Dinah learn about the split? Is that 62?
Argh! I should stop trying to sort this out. It's comics. Time moves differently in comics.

Yes, the continuity of most comics makes it look like Chris Carter actually had a plan all along. IJS. I mean, my experience is a bit out of date, but I can't believe it's gotten any better.

Hey. New board.
Sam Loeb sure interviews well for a fifteen-year-old.
