You'd think Gaiman would have enough clout in the comic world at this point to go "What are you, stupid?" to whoever did that character design.

True, though I've also gotten the impression that Gaiman likes to give his artists as much freedom as possible to interpret the text in their own way.

We may not like it, but Neil seems to have been okay with it.

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

This week was light, which suckered me into X-Men Unlimited, which was unremarkable.

Firestorm was interesting -- they seem (apart from the A plot) to be getting themselves in quite a tangle.

I have some hopes about what happened in Y Last Man -- that 355 is pretty much straight, and put the glasses on to help her pretend. Maybe I'm a 355/Y shipper -- dunno.

Did anyone read the Apocalypse X Mini? Did it suck?

Was Deadshot #5 out this week? I don't really want to buy it, b/c I'd rather buy the whole shebang as a TPB, but I want to know what happens. I'm willing to go stand around the comic store at lunch and read it.

I'm pretty sure I saw it in the new section.

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

ita, re: Y, that's how I saw it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Kind of ironic though, given that 355 is better positioned to be a straight woman who gets the kind of sex she would prefer than anyone else on the planet .

I'd imagine she has some issues to do with Y and protecting him, and, really, shagging the last guy on the planet who's worked out where to put his weenie. And he's apparently in love with someone else.

Have we seen these before? 'Motivational' posters, with comics characters on them. I think I need the one with the Joker ...

Yes.

See, I knew I had seen it somewhere before. I should learn not to skim, and possibly to sleep more.
