I just had a fleeting urge to search for Plastic/Elongated slash.
Thankfully, the urge passed before I could act.
Is there any reason for the Elongated Man to exist now that DC owns the rights to Plastic Man?
He's been played more recently as a more mature detective type, and it sounds like Meltzer's going to put him in the forefront.
Also, "Identity Crisis" comes out today. DC comics murder mystery, written by Brad Meltzer, who's work on "Green Arrow" seriously kicked. Supposed to feature the "Satellite Era" JLA--Green Arrow, Hawkman, Atom, Black Canary, Zatanna and Elongated Man. Previews look awesome.
Oh shit. That's right.
Well, crap. I'll be twitching all day until I can boogie off to get my pulls.
My list for today:
Nightwing 94
Identity Crisis 1
Green Arrow 39
Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight 180
See if lame little store still has any copies of Astonishing X, which I still haven't picked up.
And a new scanner to, uh, do things I would never ever do.
It has, actually. Check out Peter David's X-factor run after 72 or 73. Havok spent some time in a suit that, while not necessairily better, was much more in line with the style of the time. (He had an onion on his belt).
What time period was that? All I know if he first appeared in the 60s and I'm now up to the mid-eighties and he's still wearing the same really dumb-looking outfit.
Also, Rogue looks really odd (and rather middle-aged) with her initial hairstlyle.
Not sure why people were up in arms about Mystique in the movies beating the crap out of people, because she seems to do it quite a lot in the comics so far (when she's not using a gun, anyway.)
amych - yesterday was driving out to visit friend who lives in the complex I'm hoping to move into, and as we drove by Ultimate boyf goes - "Hey, there's a comic book store here!" I said "That's why I'm moving here. I mean uh... that's... an added benefit to moving here."
But in the comics she doesn't have super ninja fighting powers. She has extreme human fighting powers.
My list:
- Love & Rockets v2 #10
- Street Angel #2
- Love Fights #10
- Bone #55 (last issue!!!! sniff)
Last Bone? I had no idea. Haven't read it in a little while but .... t adds to list
