Oh my. I would have passed right by that typo unaware, but now am picturing the TV Guide critic in tight primary-color spandex, flying past the skyscrapers of New York. It's not a good thing.
Dawn: Is that supposed to scare me? Spike: Little tremble wouldn't hurt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The idea of Routh as Superman and Roush as Clark makes me laugh unduly.

I read the new Nightwing and laughed and laughed and laughed.

Well, brought on more by stuff (like that fic that Teppy linked to last week) outside of the book than in the book itself. . . (because Dick isn't really in a fun place right now, is he?)

Heh. I gotta run to the comic store at lunch and pick up 2 weeks' worth of comics, including a bunch that aren't on my regular pull list.

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

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Nice to see some love for Zot.
I'm just going to go with my most pleasurable comic reading experiences.
1. Love & Rockets
2. Swamp Thing (Moore run)
3. The Invisibles
4. Nexus
5. Hmmmm. Feels like I should toss in something mainstream superheroish here to at least honor my early enthusiasms. Could be the Claremont X-Men. Could be the Denny O'Neil/Neal Adams Batman. But I think I'll opt for Walt Simonson's run on Thor. That was fun, and it looked great too. Beta Ray Bill!
Honorable Mention: Zot, Mister Miracle (I liked all of Kirby's 4th World stories, but Scott Free's escape from Apokolips fired up my 10 y.o. imagination), American Flagg, Miller's Daredevil, Eightball, Hate, Jim Woodring, Pogo, Krazy Kat.
