The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Whee! New Astounishing this week. It feels like it's been more than a month. I know I didn't get caught up with the latest issue right away.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Cool! Will he have people to protect him from all the Robin readers?
Bill Willingham's a weird one, ain't he? "Fables?" Rocks. "Robin?" "Sucks." "Day of Vengeance?" Well, so far, not too shabby.
Maybe he just can't write "Robin." Maybe he should stop writing "Robin" imediately and start writing "Detective Chimp."

Not only does Robin suck like a Hoover on 'roids, his other Batfamily writing has been just as bad. So, I'm think it's established titles he should stay the hell away from.

Maybe that's it. Alas. Maybe I should lobby for a Detective Chimp series...

I had to drop all of the Bat titles he's writing months ago. I try not to take life too seriously, and Willingham had me seriously thinking about taking life.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Uh....I confess, I flipped through the current issue of Robin in the store, and I bought it. There was even a part where the writing made me laugh, not AT Willingham, but b/c it was actually funny.
I don't think he has any clue who the character of Robin really IS, but some of the surrounding story just got intriguing. Johnny Warlock is back, and there was a gleefully gruesome scene where mob boss Acquista brought a coffin with the rotted corpse of his daughter to Johnny Warlock in Istanbul, and begged him to raise her from the dead.
So, Johnny, or, rather whatever the hell that mystical thing in Johnny is, did it. And, as with all raising of people from the dead, she came back wrong. Fabulously, hideously, evil-overlordishly wrong.
I liked it.
I fear for my mental well-being.

Teppy! I liked that too -- even though I had NO IDEA who the heck the Warlock guy was. Also, there has been (so far as I can tell) no explanation about the mysterious Uncle thing.
