P-C, re: Ex Machina: No, I have no idea what the last scene was about, but I'm confident we'll get a quick connection in the next issue. I'll dig through #1 just in case there is a clue.

DX, re same comic: Yes, it is taking a while to actually get to the plot of the story, but I kind of like this approach. However, it does lend itself to following in trades, rather than single issues. Except Vaughan seems to have one scene or image (so far) in each issue that creates "buzz". I need to think about this some more.

Damn, that BoP arc prior to this one is completely sold out.

Also, GC #7 -- difficult to find. (They've been looking for it -- so I just went ahead and bought #8.)

Also, put Flash #211 & 212 on hold and bought #210. It's so funny -- particularly the last page.

They did have the whole run of the current GK arc -- so I bought #50.

I looked at Green Lantern -- but I think I'm going to hope (as with BoP) that it comes out as a tpb.

For anyone who missed it the first time out, "Starcrossed" (the JLA season finale) is rerunning tonight on Cartoon Network. I think it's at 7 or 8 p.m. EST.

Huh. I didn't realize that Hawkgirl and GL were knocking boots.

How funny is *Batman* consoling broken-hearted John?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I looked through the new issue of Eightball today and couldn't help thinking, "Oh shit, quit hanging out with Chris Ware."

I just re-read Batgirl: Year One, and I have some Batfamily/DC-verse questions.

(1) Babs is out of college in Year One. Dick is Robin. Is he younger than Babs? Did Babs graduate early?

(2) Black Canary. Is the current Black Canary -- the one in BoP -- the one in Year One? If so, how old is she?

(2a) Are Dinah and Ollie no longer an item in current continuity? (Like in IC.)

(2b) Did Dinah and Nightwing get together?

(2c) If 2b is correct, isn't the whole BoP gang a little bothered by the fact that they slept with the same guy? Or are they more bothered by the fact that they're only a diner and a beach away from turning into 90210?
