I love the idea, and I'm not sure why. Something about the inevitable sourness I see in him with a hero. Or do I mean with a woman? No, hero.
But I'm happy with it being just in my brain. I could do without it in JLU just fine. It worries me.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

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

I found the "That'll do pig", both funny AND sinister.

I love the idea, and I'm not sure why.
I love the idea of Diana and Dick having to sit next to each other at some big briefing or event and both being really, really uncomfortable .

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

Hec, torch-song-singing Batman actually kind of broke my brain. In a "this is very, very wrong" way. Although now that I think about it, I'll bet there's an Elseworld out there where Bruce Wayne sings torch songs in clubs while fighting crime.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ethan let me read the first Y: The Last Man trade, and now I'm hooked.
Bastard.
But he also let me take his No Man's Land, so I'll finally get to read it now!

But Shrift, Wronger Than A Wrong Thing is no impediment to your writing. Dude, you wrote Harvey mpreg. I like to think of you and Ple having a very special, very perverse muse who visits you during your crankier hours, and sends you off into wicked fits of laughter.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Not only during the crankier hours.

I like to save Wronger Than A Wrong Thing for special occasions, and by special occasions, I mean truly unfortunate double-dog dares and the torture of others.

We caught the torch-song Batman ep of JLU last night. It made Pete make That Face and mutter disbelivingly. I just giggled a lot. Mind you, I don't think it was a particularly good story idea, and even lines such as "I'm a rich boy with issues. Lots of issues" couldn't save it.
