I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

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

I think Watchman is too dense a story, and Morpheus not cool enough. He's not a snob.

I think he's just a late bloomer. He only just read the Lord Of The Rings.

Also, I own but don't have to hand the Sandman stories and Watchmen. So I'm not buying them again. Dark Knight I do not own.

I am selfish too.

Ultimate X Men 40 was the introduction of Angel. 42 was the introduction offscreen of Dazzler, Storm learning to control her powers, Beast leaving, and the escalation of the mutant/human tension in the White House.

41 was the issue that made me say, DAMN, I like this series.

Hey. New board.

Yeah, 41 was REALLY good. It's the only one of those I've read so far. But it was GOOD.

The Arsenal mini was, indeed, adorable. I really liked Officer Down.

Hee.

I suppose Batman + Arsenal is next on the list to bring you.

Sweet Zombie Jebus, you *are* a pusher, aren't you?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Bah. New comics day, and there's nothing on the list that I want.

Fie upon thee, comic-book makers!

Though I have Batgirl: Year One on its way to me from B&N.com.

I'm only getting Ultimate X-Men. And I think I need to make a proper list of the graphic novesl I want.

Art Crawl!!!

Not even Batgirl,Teppy? Not even the next installment of Judd Winick's Batman story?

I may pickup Bruce Wayne: Murderer today because one of the lots of Nightwing I bought on ebay came with one issue of Bruce Wayne: Fugitive . . .

I haven't been reading either title, and I figure I should save up my money for next month's mega-colossal multi-title crossover.

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.

I am about to reread The Dark Knight Returns, but when I was first trying comics as a snobby college student, I found it a lot less compelling as an argument for comics as literature than either Sandman or Watchmen, as witness the fact that I only really read more superhero comics last month. Just a datapoint.

Pimp.

You around tonight?

I'll be in your area to pick up my crack, and needs must return Pete's copy of Firestorm.
