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

I think Clark thinks of himself as Clark, even when he's off being super; for Bruce, it takes an effort to actually be Bruce Wayne. His default state is the Bat.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I don't think Longshot showed up in any issues of Wolverine, SA.

Okay. I guess I can google for one-shots or something.

I agree--and while some of my characterisation for Clark comes from Smallville, I do have the distinct feeling of him being Clark, where the glasses aren't the disguise--the cape is.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Granted, Kon's word isn't gospel,* but in one of the first few Teen Titans issues, he (Kon) says that Clark thinks of himself as Clark, and that Superman is the disguise.

*(But then again, there's no reason to assume him to be unreliable, particularly in this area.)

ION, the new comics list claims that Outsiders #18 is out tomorrow.

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

SA, unless Wolverine bets on a pair of twos twice, Uncanny X-Men 245 is the issue your roommate needs.

Sometime later the quartet of X-Men return to their base in Australia laughing that Wolverine bluffed the alien with a pair of twos.

Oh, wow, ita. Thank you. You're phenomenal.

Yes -- Outsiders #18 and DC 801 (I think).

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

Yes -- Outsiders #18 and DC 801 (I think).

Yep. Those (and the first GL: Rebirth, if my shop get in any copies of the new printing) are pretty much my list for the week.

I think that they're supposed to have GL: Rebirth 1 & 2 today.

My new comic store (in my 'hood; it opened in August) is a wee tiny one, and as such, they don't order a ton of copies of any given issue. When they were out of TT 19, and I reacted with it's-the-end-of-the-world angst, Comic Book Guy said "Tell me what titles you regularly read, and I'll pull them for you when they come in." I have a pull list now! (My old store never offered that, though I'm sure if I had asked, they would have, but it was a non-issue b/c the store is so big that they order a gazillion copies of most issues, so they never run out.)

Also, new!Comic Book Guy is cute in a geeky way, and possibly single.

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

My list is:

  • Firestorm #8
  • Outsiders #18
  • New X-Men #7
  • Uncanny X-Men #453
  • Y The Last Man #29 shakes hand at sky

    And comiclist has the Rebirth on.
