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 don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

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.
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.

While I quite liked what Singer did with the X-Men costumes, he needs to be cluesticked that some things don't need fixing.

Whoops. TV Superman has a dorky belt. Something distracted me from that. Not sure what...maybe the fact that Dean Cain is hot, and Roush has yet to sell me.
Not sold on the movie as a whole yet, really, whereas I was psyched about Begins from day 0.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
TV Superman has a dorky belt
It's quilted. This is as amusing to me as Ple's plaint that "Aquaman's classic costume has a boatneck collar!"
and Roush has yet to sell me.
He looks like Ken Wahl.
