this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

So, finally got Astounishing. Totally fell for the misdirect. I knew Peter was dead, thanks to conversations here, but he never even occurred to when I went through the list of dead mutants it could be. Although, I do wonder if he got there by falling from the sky naked.

Maybe he came back wrong.

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

Don't hurt me! Joss has done enough!

::goes back to last couple pages of Astounishing::

Some disappointing news on the Bat-front:

Ed Brubaker to leave Catwoman afterf issue #37.

It looks like Scott Morse will fill-in for 3 issues, and then a new writer (unannouced as of yet) will take over. I hope they take the opportunity to change the art team at the same time.

Brubaker's run on Catwoman has established Selina Kyle as a serious character, rather than a one-note joke. This title has seen some experimentation with art and mood that is not normally seen in standard superhero comics, and I for one am disappointed that Brubaker is leaving earlier than he originially planned. (However, if he was getting burned out on the title like he says he was, maybe it's for the best).

That sequence was so very end of "Beauty and Beasts," wasn't it ?

And also a little bit of newly-resurrected!Buffy asking Dawn, "Is this hell?"

Oh, my. This week's JLU?

Crack.

I'm not sure what sort of crack, but it's a bit like their offices were hijacked by ficcers. On crack.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

This week's JLU?

Crack.

I missed it! What happened?

Holli, it was a shipper's dream. WW challenges Bats about being single, he explains he has issues, she gets turned into a pig by Circe, Bats suddenly is very fond of stroking her, works with Zatanna (who's a bit jealous of WW) to get to Circe, and he sings a torch song before it's all over.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
