Something Awful's Photoshop Phriday this week uses panels from Watchmen. It's rather amusing.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

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

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
What Morrison JLA TPBs should I read, Victor? Especially as an Oracle fan. (You mentioned a JLA story in which Bats gets split into two? I keep thinking about that, and would love to read it.)
JLA 4: Strength in Numbers (The expansion of the team, including Oracle joining.)
JLA 5: Justice for All (Many strange tangents, including a bitchin Atom story. Various authors.)
JLA 6: World War II (Wherein shit hits fan. Much Morrisson epicness.)
JLA 7: Tower of Babel (Ra's Al Ghul takes down the League with Batman's traps. Pivotal for any Bat fan. Seriously. Mark Waid takes over writing chores.)
JLA 8: Divided We Fall (In the aftermath of Batman's "betrayal," the League is sharply divided. In some cases, literally. This was the one yopu were talking about.)

How many of you who are asking about bandage guy have *NOT* read the whole Hush storyline? (Parts 1 & 2) Because I'm sensing the confusion that comes with not having read it to conclusion.
Secondary whitefont to ANSWER the question, which will spoil you for what I asked in *my* question above, in the original white font. Bandage guy is Hush, who is Tommy Elliot.

Art Crawl!!!
Plei -- I haven't read any of Hush -- I mean, I intend to, but the tpb of vol. 1 isn't at the comic shop and I've got so much else to catch up on. . . .

Plei, I haven't read it at all, don't have a clue what it's about, and thus your whitefont doesn't help me figure out what's going on in War Games, though I guess I've just spoiled myself if I ever do read it. Oops.

Thrive to spite them
I have the the first part of Hush but between reading other stuff and lj entries I already figured out who Hush was. But I'm still totally sucked in by the Hush story.

Please tell me he didn't get someone to greenlight the "Uncle Batman" character he once proposed!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Huh. No Commissioner Gordon. That's a serious deviation from every other canon. Instead we get...
Chief Rojas (Edward James Olmos)
For Chief Rojas, The Batman is nothing less than a black eye to his police force. Believing there is no room for vigilante justice in Gotham, Rojas has made capturing the Dark Knight a top priority.
Mulikuliti police force.
Adam West voices the mayor.
Gina Gershon as Catwoman!
Clancy Brown as Mr. Freeze!
Tom Kenney (aka, Spongebob) as Oswald Cobblepot!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
See, casting Gina Gershon as the voice of Catwoman is a big tease.
Where's the fun if we don't get to see her in the outfit?
