Mal ,'Safe'
Discussion of Buffy and Angel comics, books, and more. Please don't get into spoilery details in the first week of release.
I contrast Willingham's wack-ass characterization with Johns' in Teen Titans, who manages to make Tim light-hearted AND psychotic, which is how he ought to be.
Yup. Johns is nailing all of the characters, actually. Good stuff. (Plus, I have the belief that Johns gets the Kon/Tim thing, and deliberately does things like the "Tim, you gotta give me a reason to stay" line.)
On, Astounishing, which I've not actually read yet, Steph., Lockheed the dragon is, well, an alien that attached itself to Kitty while they were in space. He's been her pet--although he may see that differently--for years.
Huh. Okay, then.
Huh. Thanks, Victor. I did not know that, either. Weird.
I read Astounishing, which I will never be able to spell or pronounce correctly now, thanks to you people. Liked the Kitty/Emma smackdown. Also liked the idea of a Scott/Logan smackdown for beer. And I thought that Beast's desire to know about the mutant cure was in character, from what I've seen. Oh! And I laughed my ass off when Beast was singing to Logan while the X-Men were getting questioned by the reporters.
Was this week's issue of TT the last in an arc?
Was this week's issue of TT the last in an arc?
Yup. Brother Blood, who is just plain weird.
Yup. Brother Blood, who is just plain weird.
Y'know, for a Brother Blood storyline it wasn't that bad. (I generally am not of the fond.)
Teen Titans had several panels this week that made me go o.0, as you can tell by my earlier summary. Also, many that made me go "EEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" My Bart-love remains strong, as is right and proper.
Plei, I'm starting to like Bart more. I just get the sense that he's really really YOUNG, compared to the other Titans. Not necessarily age-wise (because he's from the *future,* yo), but temperment-wise.
Did the last panel make you go o.0, or go EWWWWWWWWW!!! ?
Oh, and I named my new car "Flash," because it's surprisingly zippy, but I'm starting to think I should change the name to "Bart," because it's zippy but also small and cute and a little odd.
Of course, if I change the name to "Bart," all my meatspace friends -- non-comics-reading people -- will think I mean Simpson. Meh.
One of the Nightwing TPB's I bought was "The Hunt for Oracle" -- is the continuation with the story about Dinah collected anywhere?
Sumi, there's lots more Dinah in Birds of Prey (IIRC, the Hunt for Oracle issues are BoP 20-21, so you might want to start there and go on). C'mon, you know you want another monthly title....
