Emily, your mouse story is cute and kinda touching. I could see it in an indie comic like Wet Moon or Optic Nerve.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

What time is it there? Are you getting done at midnight?

7:25pm. I started later than usual today, but I make my own schedule.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Black Summer is the same concept writ large. A Superman analogue kills the President and Vice-President for war crimes against humanity, and the whole country goes crazy realizing that he has to be stopped, or who knows what he will do next...

Powers dealt with this too. Of course I can't remember which TPB it was in. (Wikipedia tells me it was The Sellouts.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh, I was only off by four hours....

Bush To Pope Benedict: "Thank You, Your Holiness. Awesome Speech"

Anyone wanna place odds on the Pope being familiar with the term "awesome"?

Hey, that was a great guess!

MAN. Why they gotta harsh on Batman's boyfriend like that?

Don't you mean Lex's boyfriend? Honestly, shrift, one would think you'd never heard the term "cocksickle"!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Superman is Batman's boyfriend.

Clark Kent is Lex's boyfriend.

Usually not at the same time.

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.

Yep, Black Summer a bit more on the epic ultra-violence while Sellouts was more cosmic, I think...

Bush To Pope Benedict: "Thank You, Your Holiness. Awesome Speech"

Is that a confederate battle flag behind the Pope?
