Finally read last week's Ult. Spidey (which I think I'm alone on at this point) but I still need to whine. Why did they have to make Captain DeWolf evil ? I like her, gorrammit!
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Yeah, I think that's from a few years back, but kept having publishing problems. But hooray for it finally coming out! Assuming it really does this time.
Weren't parts of that serialized in some anthology comic (Taboo maybe?) the way that FROM HELL was, or am I just getting it confused with FROM HELL?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anyone still reading Y: Last Man? It's moving so sloooooooowly.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
I am. I feel like it's moving slowly, but I think part of that is that I read the first 4 TPBs all in a row, so now waiting a month is excruciating. Quite a bunch of stuff happened this issue. Also, I think he's trying to build up to a big thing soon.

There'd better be a big thing soon--there have only been half things, it feels like for a while. It's all search, search, obstacle! Tune in next week.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Starting this month, I will have a monthly column in the Comic Buyer's Guide about manga.
Congratulations, CaBil! Though personally I'd rather have you around to parse the news for me.
Alito - legalistic with Federalist slant or nutbar in mild clothing?
Rove - going down or sleezing through?
Cheney - going down or sleezing through?
FEMA - should we turn the whole frickin' thing over to the Coast Guard? How would that work in Wyoming, which is coastless?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm gonna take a stab at answering Hec's questions, b/c it's Friday afternoon and I'm bored. So, in order: nutbar; going down; sleazing through; underpants gnomes.

I don't want underpants gnomes in charge of FEMA.
This is why I don't turn to you to parse the news.

"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

Seems to me having access to their stash would have been handy for Michael Brown when he found out people were actually expecting him to do something in response to a disaster.
