move out and draw fire

Well, you gotta figure that with all that's happened to the poor guy, he's probably not firing on all cylinders anymore.

But better would've been, NNNOOO!!! They stick needles in me there! It's horrible! I don't care if everything's destroyed! It didn't work out right anyway!!

Also, can we assume that things didn't really go back to normal? We know what event kicked off the Marvelverse too early, but the repair actions don't fully make the appearance of super-powers go away. I'm thinking Daredevil here; you could argue that his power isn't really a superpower, but it still means Daredevil existed too early.

The one thing I did like was the "fallout" from the repair effort.

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

I love fallout.

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

Loved it. Until the end.

Yeah, the last issue was a let down. Too rushed. Plus what you said about Cap.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Thrive to spite them

After work I went out and bought the current issues of The Outsiders and GCPD, as well as GCPD #1 and an earlier issue of The Outsiders.

And I realized that I need to know the run down of who is who for The Outsiders because right now they are a bunch of pretty faces. Except Nightwing, but I only know him because they said his name.

I have several questions--

where can I get the start of Cassandra's story and how Tim figured out who Batman was/Tim's parents die.

What's the deal with Shiva? In Robin A Hero Reborn she was helping Robin and in Batgirl A Knight Alone, she wanted to kill Batgirl.

Also I think I've been using terms wrong...what's the difference between a trade paperback and a graphic novel?

There were more questions but I didn't write them down at the time so I forgot them.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also I think I've been using terms wrong...what's the difference between a trade paperback and a graphic novel?

A trade paperback (or TPB) collects part of a comic run. A graphic novel was never published as original monthly comic issues - it was created and published in book form first (like The Killing Joke).

Okay. So what I really have are trade paperbacks...glad that was cleared up.
