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

Finally playing catch-up on comics (I had, umm, a large backlog in my box). Starting with Gotham Central.

1. Damn, they're going out with a bang and FINALLY connecting dots I've been wondering about for the last 20 or so issues.

and

2. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! CRIS!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!! I have to say, while this wasn't an unexpected death, it still just gutpunched me. Damn. In a fair and just world, all of Gotham Central will be available in trade once it wraps up, because I want to be able to sit down and re-read each storyline without digging through my boxes. Jesus. That was painful. Earned, too. But CRIS!!! Jesus. I keep thinking about the chain of actions and events leading to it. About Harvey and Renee and the way Gotham corrupts things. Weirdly, I keep thinking it with motion, because I swear, in my head, this is all live action.

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

I'm loving this blog. Educational.

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

Thanks for the link, ita -- it looks very cool. (Those of you who are lazy like me and want all blogs to be available as LJ feeds, it's at [link] )

"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

That "How to Draw the batmobile" panel is hysterical.

Art Crawl!!!

I'm so far behind with my comics. . . but I think that there is a new Astounishing out tomorrow.

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.

I saw that and looked into it. It's actually a re-cap of the first 12 issues. #13 comes out February 22nd, I believe.

That's the date on Marvel's web site (2-22), the last time I checked.

This dude says that Batgirl and Nightwing will be ending their runs. I am predictably mixed on this news. Half horrified, half blasé.

He's right on the former, but I hadn't heard anything about the latter going.
