Oh, cool. It does look a little like the comic art (simplified for animation), though Hellboy looks a little more like Ron.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Except he has hooves.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I read Pride of Baghdad by BKV today. It was sad. The art was really nice - pretty lions! Forgive the simple review - I've been studying most of the day and my brain is half dead.

I'm really enjoying Phonogram, and people who are actually knowledgeable about Britpop would probably enjoy it even more. Or maybe they wouldn't; because of the latest issue I've had "Common People" in my head for three days.

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.

Did anyone else read it? I was thrilled to see my speculation about the Hellfire Club being figments of Emma's imagination was borne out by the story. Though they fooled me with the White Queen persona being hurt by Scott's bullets—I assumed that meant there were two physical versions of Emma running around, and that one was an imposter.
Anyone wondering if the black ops government types have bitten off more than they can chew, what with beaming up not only Danger and an apparently unhinged Emma Frost, but also a malevolent Xavier-level telepath in Nova as well? I cannot believe Shield's Esper Division technology and operatives will be able to cope with the latter if she's free to act. Hell, with Jean Grey dead and Xavier depowered, I'm not sure anyone's left who could, unless you count Stephen Strange .

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow.
You put a bunch of immature men, many of whom were very sick as children or had absent fathers or both, and all of whom escaped into over-muscled power fantasies as a result, in charge of a publishing subgroup with no prestige and little money. Several of them have never worked anywhere else, or if they have, it was at one of the few similar companies in the same industry that behave the same way. They’re still geeks, mentally, with low self-esteem and no success with women, few of whom they actually know in person, but they’re power brokers within their little world, and there are thousands like them who desperately want to be them… and you wonder why it all ends up so twisted?
The scenario she's talking about and the quote she quotes are heinous, but she's talking about real people above, and it tenses me up.
