I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yep. A friend of mine thinks I'd like it bunches.
Which reminds me: I'm actually looking for manga recs. I'm probably going to pick up Bizenghast, but I'd like to take a look at other things with a similar style. (You know, spoooooky happenings, vampires, fairy tales, and girls in pretty dresses that make them look like Victorian dolls.) Anyone have any suggestions?

You're so totally no longer allowed to stage an intervention for me when and if I start reading it. Just so as you know.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Jilli, check out "Angel Sanctuary." Not so much on the vampires, but some great fashion and a bunny that you might find a wee bit familiar.
For sheer gorgeous artwork (incl. some great dresses), check out "Clover," esp. volume three.

I thought that was a given. Like I'm capable of staging an intervention for *anyone* about genre stuff ...
Thanks for the suggestions, Anne! I'll go search them out.

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

I know which cover I'll be getting... hmm. Wonder if I should specify Perez ahead of time.
3/5s of the way through my Spider-Woman collection now. Trying to decide if I prefer Leialoha or Infantino's work for the art. For writing, Mark Gruenwald is so heads and shoulders above the other writers on the title (Wolfman before and Michael Fleisher after) that I'm overwhelmed with the Tragic Loss Sorrows.
Also, there are WAY too many OJ Simpson shoe ads within the pages. Oddly, none of them are Bruno Maglis.

Just finished Busiek's and Ross's Marvels and although I loved the perspective and the photo-ish artwork, I was really disappointed by the ending. I guess it was more a tribute to all the Marvel publications of that era, than an actual stand-alone story, and that's probably why I just found the whole thing confusing without any satisfying resolutions.

Art Crawl!!!
I think I'm going to be demanding and request the Perez cover.

Someone with free time (you know how the internet is) made movie Superman/Batman wallpapers (not! porn!).
I think Superman comes off pretty poorly here. Is that my Batfangirlishness talking? I think I like the TV costume more.
