Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

OK, so we have 4. And ND said in a short while. I'm happy to wait for ND. Anyone else want to join in? The more the merrier. And by merry, I mean paranoia!!

OK, how is it that Nightwing is worth 125,000 studs in Lego Batman, but Batgirl is only 100,000?

I mean, Nightwing's just Robin with hairgel.

That is a good article. I just wish I could've written it.
