You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

But "Robin versus the Bosom of Doom" has such a nice ring to it as a title.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Whereas "Robin versus the Bunnies of Fluff" doesn't? Puh-LEEZ. RvTBoF would fly off the shelves, fly, I tell you!

I vote for "Robin versus the Bunnies of Doom," personally. With Batman singing, "And brave young Robin ran away."

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

All the bunny talk is making my brain go to a ficcy place. And not a goodficcy place, either.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Owt Dedaeh Amall!

Heh. The 'toon Teen Titans is having WAY too much fun with Robin. They just slid in a reference to Jason Todd.

ita, wasn't Volume 2 of NML the one where you were complaining about the art? Cause I can see why. The art in the first storyline is just awful, way too cartoony and retro for the tone (plus the writer had sucky cliffhangers), and the next storyline's art is messy and dark, with the wide shots never as distinct as the close-ups. Maleev's art in "No Law and a New Order" worked rather well, and seeing Teran's style made me appreciate it much more. The last half has better art, I think; it's interesting to see all these varying styles.

I'm interested in seeing what the overarching storyline ends up being. This looks different from War Games, which has one storyline being handled by multiple writers. Here, multiple writers get their own little arcs. It kind of distills the sense of urgency when things keep coming to a close. But it's still a fascinating look at Gotham in a dire situation, and it's more compelling intellectually than War Games.
