Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

1-5. And I picked up 6-10 yesterday.

Yay! I like the first trade. The final issue is a parlor room scene.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm unfamiliar. If it's a Starman thing, then it mightbe in the Starman/Superman story wich I've not read yet, as "m reading in graphic novel form and it ain't out. That being said, it would make sense, considering the Starman themes there.

I think it's one that's in graphic format. Curses. Wish I could remember where and who said it.

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

And silly me for asking.

But totally worth your money. It's a great story.

The Walking Dead is a pretty decent comic too.

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

Who is this little boy in the Robin suit?

Suddenly, I really like Tim. I never disliked him, but he's charmed the hell out of me (2/3 way through Fugitive 1). Who's the real Tim? Or am I just on a post-Cass high?

I thought that was Tim, cause otherwise I had no clue either.

('twas a deliberately clueless question -- I'm saying he doesn't feel like the Tim I've read recently, and that I like Fugitive!Tim better)

Recent!Tim is Willingham's NotLikeTim!Tim. Well, in his own title. He's always been a little different in groups. Fugitive!Tim is the Tim We Love.

Ah, okay. It was a deeper "Who?"

Yeah, he's pretty cool and detective-y and doubt-y here.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Fugitive!Tim is the Tim We Love.

I'm also fond of Teen Titans Tim. A little grittier, even less trusting of the Bat than he is in Murderer/Fugitive. Actually, Titans!Tim seems to be a reasonable evolution from Murderer/Fugitive!Tim, w/r/t the creepy obsessive detective skillz.

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

I know folks had been carping about some bad Bat!Writing, but I didn't have perspective -- I think Willingham!Tim is about all I know. Outside of groups, but it's hard to know if Titans or IC Tim is the real deal because of all the variables.

Well, until today.

I just finished book 1, and I'm nervous about book 2, because I have no 3.

But there's no way I'll go to sleep without reading it.

Of course, I'm falling in love with Cass all over again. Her hero worship is so desperate.

And that last bit, the one where the dying detective asks Batman to solve the Wayne murders? So transparently manipulative.

Also, effective.
