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

Shrift, I can see where that would make a difference. Though, really, the smothering creepy part is that (getting more into S6 Spike here) Catalina seems to think she's doing the right thing, where Faith... didn't.

Oh. Now that you put it that way -- you're totally right about Catalina. And it kinda makes it that much more wrong. I have the feeling this is gonna have me running in mental circles for a good long while.

Oh, yeah. My brain won't stop buzzing about this one for a while.

I mean, I'm up at quarter of seven, my time. And still thinking about it.

Okay, we have to wait a month for the next one? It's going to be difficult.

And only two weeks for the next Batman?

Next week on the schedule:

  • BATMAN GOTHAM KNIGHTS #53
  • BIRDS OF PREY #67
  • OUTSIDERS #12
  • ROBIN #126 (if you are willing to stomach it)
  • ROSE & THORN #6 (final issue of the Gail Simone mini)
  • SUPERMAN/BATMAN #10 (which means I suppose I need to get 2-9, as I was given 1)

Huh. Next week has four must-haves and two possibles. Also out next week is Issue 1 of JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA: ANOTHER NAIL, the sequel to The Nail, one of the more interesting Elseworlds out there.

Edit: Yeah, Batman 628 in two weeks.

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

Plei, if you're still around, hop on AIM

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

Is the Justice League with Alan Davis?

For Catalina, I saw what she did as more Spike than Faith. Bringing someone into her damaged (damn, I want to use "fold" here, but that's wronger than wrong) whatever.

When I get home, I'm gonna have to do a detailed comparison between Robin: Year One and Devin's Nightwing arc, and it's not entirely Plei's fault.

Just mostly?
