I absolutely had to make time to read a couple of comics last night after seeing the cover of IC#5. Which I may have to, uh, frame. Due to Teen Titans and IC, my brain is happily
percolating on TIMMAY and his angst, and what this means for him in the future. Where will he live? Is his step-mother Dana still in the picture? We've seen her in Robin, but I'm pretty sure she's been absent from IC completely -- which I hope is indicative of something important rather than just an oversight, considering that IC is all about family. Tim has lived with Bruce before, and he could become the latest in a line of dark-haired, blue-eyed, orphaned wards who suffer from persistent and suspicious injuries. They could be grim and efficient together.
The mere idea of that much dysfunction in one cave pleases me greatly.
What else? Oh, yeah --
I can only hope that, since IC is supposed to be post-War Games (right?) that the Arrogant Assburger is off the Robin title by then.
I want someone
competent
handling the aftermath of this.
Mmff. Anyway. Brain still spinny. Need more coffee. Will no doubt be re-reading lots of Bat-comics this weekend to pull together thoughts that are a little deeper than
OMGILUVTIMMAY4EVAH!!!1!
after seeing the cover of IC#5. Which I may have to, uh, frame.
Oh, thank god. I was afraid I was the only Obsesso Girl who had that thought.
I thought that too -- so beautiful.
I was wondering what the time-line is for these various stories -- War Games pre-future TT, Identity Crisis post- War Games; post -Future TT?
Does that sound right?
I was wondering what the time-line is for these various stories
I was talking about that with the totally cute geekboy who runs the new comic store by my house (so cute! also a Husband of Reason fanboy). We actually tried to construct a timeline and then gave up.
That sounds about right to me, Sumi.
I was afraid I was the only Obsesso Girl who had that thought.
Oh, yes. But it must be noted than I am Obsesso
Perv
Girl.
They were out of Batgirl #57, so I had to put my name down at the counter. Comic Store Guy was ragging on me about not having a pull. (I'm lazy and busy and I didn't want to put together a list because then I would have to admit the true extent of my crackwhore obsession, but I'll bring in a list next week, because Batgirl keeps selling out, and I Must Have It, My Precious.) Then Comic Store Guy declared his love for me because I'd brought up my stack of new issues already sorted by price.
I wonder what would have happened if I'd busted out my Comic Book Legal Defense Fund card?
Oh, yes. But it must be noted than I am Obsesso Perv Girl.
You don't have the market cornered on that, missy. My first thought when the
Future Titans sent the Current Titans to bed
was
"OMG! Tim and Kon, rooming together! So why are there TWO beds?"
I need to re-read some of the slightly earlier War Games books is
Nightwing lying gunshot somewhere
? Doesn't it seem odd that nobody
has noticed that he hasn't checked in recently
? Especially given the recent carnage.
You don't have the market cornered on that, missy.
And this pleases me greatly. After all, one is the loneliest number!
To be honest, I didn't even notice
that there were two beds. My brain is clearly recalling only one.
So apparently one isn't the loneliest number as long as it involves a king-size...
We need a poster of that IC cover. We do we do.
(Also, a poster of NW93's cover would be GREATLY loved by me. I could put it in the baby's room.)
Shrift, sadly,
Assburger's on the title for a while. AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!
