Is it terribly wrong that I can hear this only in Dr. Zoidberg's voice?
Well, be comforted by the knowledge that you're no longer alone.
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Looks like I'll just be getting Uncanny X-Men and Detective Comics this week. After only three titles last week.
I guess I need to brace myself for the rest of October, it seems.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Just Ultimate Spidey for me this week.
Was wondering why there was no JLU discussion this week, then I watched my tape and went "Oh." I ended up watching the episode even though I'd seen it before, though I confess I fast-forwarded through all of Superman's dreamscape scenes.

Art Crawl!!!
I like Supe's dreamscape scenes.
Did anyone else watch "The Batman"? It had "The Catwoman" in it.

I liked them during the original airing, but last night I was more in the mood to watch people pummel each other.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I did. It dampened my enthusiasm a bit. Wasn't horrible, but it was a pretty generic read on Catwoman ("Mreowww, sexual entrendre, purrrr"), whereas they spent more time reimagining the other villains and the Batverse.

Maybe they should have dispensed with the costume in favor of street clothes and drawn her like Ann-Margret?

So did anyone read anything this week? UXM is...weird. It's like they're all older, or something. Well, NSM Wolverine.
I'm not sure how I feel about the pace.
Legion/Titans made my head hurt. As for the suspense, yeah, sure, Kon's going to leave Tim who just came back to him. Sure. Not even in Elseworlds.
I don't like reading one War Games at a time. I need momentum to move the through.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Titans/Legion confused the hell out of me, partly b/c I *so* don't get the conundrums of time-travel, and partly b/c I have no idea who all the Legion folks are, and I couldn't bring myself to care.
I did love that Raven said "ass," and I really loved the part where Bart went to see his mom. Made me a little sniffly, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
As for Detective Comics -- War Games is just being dragged out, is what I think. I don't know how all of this will play out, but I really feel like War Games could have easily been done in 2 months rather than 3.
