If one were looking for ::cough::non-paper::cough:: versions of things, where would one look these days?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Since I have a Mac, I peruse Limewire and pray.
t edit Though I seem to have acquired a hell of a lot of cbrs (though almost all are back issues of the Batverse, w/some Transmetropolitan), and I would not be averse to putting them on yousendit.com.

I get the need to reset, because the core heroes can't get much older. Shoehorning the past in -- I suppose if they could do it neatly, it'd give a great sense of satisfaction. I suppose.
I think by reset I mean more along the lines of trying to deal with the whole Earth 2, etc. in the current continuity, or, probably more to the point, deciding that though killing Jean Grey was really cool, we want/need the character back and we're going to try and justify it plot-wise.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
we want/need the character back and we're going to try and justify it plot-wise.
Well, for "older" include dead -- it's safer (sadly, I think) to bring back an old favourite than create a new one. So the mainstays can't change that much -- age, die, marry happily, that soft of stuff.

Would you like a ::cough::non-paper::cough:: version of it?
Yes, that'd be great. Thanks.

Also in the toonverse, they have an episode with three kids spinning stories about how they imagine Batman, and one story is clearly DKR, and the kid telling it is Carrie.
OH! I forgot to mention last night -- the other very entertaining part of that particular episode of Batman: TAS is the skinny kid with the long hair, insisting that what makes Batman so cool is the car and the rubber suit.
Said long-haired skinny kid is standing under a storefront sign that says "SHOE MAKER".

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

DC is issuing a second printing of Batman #638 (the most recent one), with a [SPOILERY if you haven't read it or know what happens] variant cover.
I don't really know how I feel about that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Sigh...

Art Crawl!!!
Boy, that tells you more than the picture from the actual comic did.
