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.
Occasionally I'm callous and strange.

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?

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
Sadly, despite these casting choices, nothing else I've heard about this cartoon makes me think it'll be very good -- it grew out of Warner's desire to keep the Batman merchandising franchise strong, and reportedly even people involved with it were saying at Wizard World that it isn't as good as the old series.
I will still check it out, since as Hec knows good art can happen in the most unlikely places, but I'm not actively counting down the days or anything.

I think they should do South Park- style animation with cut-out pictures of Christian Bale and Michael Caine.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
From JLU last night, it turns out that Wonder Woman's armor has a secret weakness. Could it be that IT DOESN'T PROTECT 80% OF HER BODY, not to mention SEVERAL VITAL ORGANS? Duh.

Well, one could argue that since Diana is (in her original origin myth, anyhow) a clay statue brought to life by the gods, she doesn't have the same vital organs humans do. And hasn't the series hinted that Amazons are immortal, too?
Also, are Hawk and Dove real DCU characters? And why?

I thought the whole point of the bullet-deflecting bracelets thing was that if she weren't able to do that, the bullets might actually HURT her ?
