"There are two sorts of people in the world: those who believe Joss Whedon is a genius and those who are wrong." - Connie Ogle, Miami Herald

I picked up all three (Serenity #1, Angel: The Curse #2, and The Freshman #1) today, plus some of the new Buffy/Angel action figures. The Serenity figures are on the cover of the freebie Diamond Select Toys Spectrum preview.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Argh. I forgot to add Serenity to my pull list the last time I was in the comic shop and they were sold out when I got there.

Art Crawl!!!

I got the Mal cover. Next time. . . Kaylee, Zoe or Book? Hmmmm.

I also picked up Angel The Curse #2. My comics guy thinks that it's not that Angel is coming out every two weeks but that #1 was just THAT late.

Also, picked up Rann-Thanagar #3, Bats, Nightwing, Batman Allies, Green Arrow, JLA, Wonder Woman and Action Comics. (I'm pathetic.)

I looked at that Batman/Robin thing . . . didn't look good.

Kalshane, my comics guy said that there would be more Serenity #1 next week. (They were sold out of Inara when I got there. . . but that was the one I didn't want.)

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

I got the Mal cover.

I got a rock. Well, Inara. It was all they had left.

Thanks, sumi. I'm going to swing by a bigger comics shop about 20 minutes up the road after work tomorrow and see if they have any, but my local shop did say they were re-ordering.

ETA: There are also apparently several Browncoats in my rinky-dink town who I was unaware of, considering.

Okay, so I was trying to find pictures to show someone Wonder Woman's various incarnations and I found this picture, which is just wrong on so many levels. [link]

I look more rad than Lutheranism

There's a long history of Wonder Woman getting tied up and then menaced by phallic-shaped objects: [link]

And also: [link]

My favorite part of this one is the (evil) cat unlacing WW's shoe: [link]

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

Actually, I'm hearing that Serenity is selling out all over the place. My Comic Book Guy didn't even have enough for everyone's hold list - I'm lucky my name is near the front of the alphabet.

move out and draw fire

Interrupting you people and your Serenity-havingness for a moment with a thought problem...I received an email today which asked "What would've happened if Superman really existed?" IF:

1) Superman were a real person
2) The comic book lore about him is ture
3) it's the early 1960's

My scenario is this, if American history were to as it is through 1962, and then Superman were to make his presence known in that same year, how would that, in your opinion, affect the cold war? Also, how would that affect the relationship between America and Asia, in regard to the resently ended Korean War? Do you think Kennedy would still be assassinated?

My initial answer was that at least we'd never have had the travesty of SuperDog and SuperCat, but on a more serious note, would superhero comics have evolved? Would Supes have become a tool of the USG, or assassinated by them?
