Oh, looking at the "Who's Who in the JLU" thing -- now when I read BoP I can imagine Gina Torres' voice for Vixen!

Discussion of Buffy and Angel comics, books, and more. Please don't get into spoilery details in the first week of release.
Batmobile footage featuring the 'mobile from Batman Begins. (Link ganked from the LJ de Pete, who loses some adorable points for not having shared it here. Hrrmph.)
on edit: this is random-bystander-with-camcorder footage, shot by someone who saw them shooting in Chicago. Not spoilery, unless you don't want to see the look of the new Batmobile.
Article in SF Chron about women heroes in pop culture (Eowyn, Buffy, Xena, Wonder Woman)
She gets some important details wrong (Wonder Woman with a whip?) but it's not bad. No mention of Alias which was interesting since Sydney's about the only butt-kicking girl on TV at the moment.
The illustration was nice though.
New comics day! Who's getting what?
My list:
12-Cent Adventure
Detective Comics #797 (damn you, War Zone crossover!)
BoP #71 (damn you, wee Plei! you win this time)
last week's Ult. Spidey and Astounishing X-Men
Pretty small, so maybe I'll throw a TPB in the mix.
- Firestorm #4
- Ultimate Nightmare #1
- Ultimate X-Men #50
- Uncanny X-Men #447
- X-Men Unlimited #4
And whatever Ultimate War he's tracked down for me, and the Ultimate X-Mens I need to complete my collection. I suspect I'm missing Batgirl #53, so I may grab that.
- 12-cent
- BoP
- Detective Comics
- Transmet:Tales of Human Waste
Has anyone read any of those Emma Frost comics? I saw that they're coming out in TPB form today.
Mine will have to be restricted to:
12-cent
BoP
DC
So, this is what Dr. Doom looks likes?
Yup, though the green isn't normally so neon-looking.
My only pulls for this week are Ult. Spidey and Ult. X-Men.
Of course, I'll browse the new releases to see if anything catches my eye.
