Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.

The short answer is "Yes, but"

The are all the same timeline, with the events in one having an effect in others. However, the timing in the various titles are not simultaneous. For instance. This month's Nightwing does not necessarily have to be at the same point of time as this month's Robin, though over time they will average out and catch up with each other.

Right on. I figured they weren't precisely simultaneous, but I just wanted to make sure they were interlocking, if that makes sense -- that what happens in one title affects the other titles, because they're (more or less) on the same timeline.

That said, I really want Titans 12 right now, damn it.

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

You can, however, hypothesize that the events of Robin 125, when Bruce is all, "duh, of course there's a contingency plan if our identities get blown!" are why Nightwing never worries about the Old Folks Back Home as everyone he cares about is getting blowed up over in Bludhaven.

Plei, yes, two degrees -- did I mention I chose Brown because there were no math requirements?

That remains so cool.

Hey, people with kids--what would you recommend giving an 8 year old if you want to get him raised right hooked on comics?

I understand the Teen Titans comic that's based on the TV show is pretty good for that level. I think it's called Teen Titans Go!

It gives an entree into the Batverse, without the fucked-upped-ness of the more adult title. (Really, I was re-reading Titans 1-11 today, and the amount that Kon swears has really endeared me to him. Spidey never swears.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Fables.

I mean, wait, no.

Doesn't just bring it to mind. It's a reference to it.

Yes, thanks, DX. I do occasionally read something other than comics. I find it helps with the bantering.

I loves me some super manwhore Arsenal. As opposed to Nightwing, who would probably be a Superman whore.

"So, you guys know Robin? Is he seeing anyone?"

Dying. Of. Cute. I must get more YJ backissues.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I guess what Nightwing did with Huntress could be qualified as dating in broadest sense of the word.

Heh. Between Nightwing, Arsenal and Grace, I think the ad copy should read something like, "Outsiders: A super team worth sleeping with!"

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

My little sister's reading my copy of the first Teen Titans TPB, and she seems to like it. And I think she's gonna read my Ultimate Spideys next.

I just read the first issue of Ultimate Spidey. Interesting that in this version, Osborne presumably will know his identity from the onset. I'm anxious to see how that plays out in the rest of the first trade.
