Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Really, I see more "it's too dark -- this is getting effing boring already" complaints than "it's too dark -- hold me, I'm scared".

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It's like the mission statement is, "None. None more dark."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Interview with Dan Didio about Infinite Crisis: [link]

NOTE: contains a thumbnail of the cover of #2 (Power Girl on a blue background), which is *not* the real cover for #2 -- clicking on that thumbnail (Power Girl) opens the *real* cover, which is SPOILERY AS FUCK.

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

Who's the guy in the upper right corner?

Of the real cover? Some iteration of Superman, I'm assuming. (Robo-Superman?)

I am definitely hitting the comic store on the way home.

Art Crawl!!!

I picked up my comics over lunch.

Started reading Identity Crisis, then thought -- maybe I should read everything else first. Particularly Villains United.

Aha. Thanks.

Well, my thought was based on nothing more than knowing that say, VU was supposed to be leading up to Infinite Crisis, you know? Rather than any spoilery type knowledge.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Who's the guy in the upper right corner?

He's Alexander Luthor, the son of the Pre-Crisis Earth-3's Lex Luthor .

Also? Wahooooooooooooooooooooooo!
