If I only had a brain...

Also, Peter Wingfield? Still the prettiest.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Yeah, they're not so specific about the type of men they're for.

yeah, women are OK.

Also, I totally saw Roger Daltrey on Highlander, but it isn't in his IMDB credits.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Carl Lumbly (Marcus Dixon on Alias) voices the Martian Manhunter on Justice League

Which reminds me of another Smallville plot bunny. In the comics, the Martian Manhunter was actually present when Clark crashed on Earth, and kept tabs on him afterward.

I thought that the Martian Manhunter was teleported to Earth in the '50s, after Superman was already a presence in Metropolis. The new series The New Frontier by Darwyn Cooke goes over the dawn of the Silver Age, and the most recent issue showed the Manhunter arriving on Earth.

Sorry. Post-crisis. Manhunter in the 50s, Superman landed on Earth thirty something years ago.

Ah, that explains it. New Frontier is "pre-Crisis" continuity.

Of course, I have my grumbles about post-Crisis Superman continuty (*cough*gestationchamber*cough*), but who doesn't?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

(I have to say, from a narrative standpoint, that trying to reconcile 50 years of continuity is the dumbest thing comics writers ever did. Everything I've seen about Crisis on Infinite Earths says that they managed to piss off dedicated comics readers, and they only baffled and irritated casual comics consumers like me. Not a way to expand the market, yo.)

(People. I will read 15 different versions of Batman's origins and regard them as multiforms of a myth. But if you try to reconcile them all -- it's like pissing away the magic of the myth that drew me in in the first place.)

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

Crisis didn't reconcile. It eliminated.

Me, I liked it. It was very emotional. But they didn't nuke anything I was attached to.

Wait -- when did they redo Donna Troy's origin? That did bother me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I was watching the two "It's a Wonderful Life" episodes in which he was apparently already dead.

Congrats. You managed to trip over the series finale.

Melina Clark had an excellent new Highlander vid in the vid show.
