May 10, 2013 6:32 pm DC, You've had too much to drink! You need to go to bed!

April 11, 2013 12:33 pm This was quite nice. Particularly this bit, which really is a great question: "Kelly: Lets think about how it works in other books. Setting aside the baby-in-peril aspect because that’s a totally different can of worms and not going away soon… How do they make it work? How can a strong female character make a dumb choice and still be strong." While I dropped Batgirl due to my general apathy towards the plot, I really enjoyed the way Gail writes Batgirl. Barbara is always shown as character who has physical strength and a sharp mind, but she still makes poor decisions. She would occasionally get herself in trouble in either her personal life or as a superhero. Sometimes she would find a clever way out, or fallback on her supporting cast(her roommate or someone from the bat family), but sometimes she just plain lost. Her faults never made her seem weak, as a reader I respected her for acknowledging her mistakes, and making an effort to fix the problem(that is strength!) ...I may have started babbling there, but yeah, nice article. Kudos!

April 4, 2013 7:06 pm While this wasn't as strong as the last two episodes(the best of the series so far, IMO), it was a solid episode. I quite enjoyed the twist at the end, and found it to be genuinely surprising. I have also found that while I didn't care for the "soap opera" elements when the show started, that I am now completely sucked in. I think the writing staff has been very consistent with the portrayals of each character, and that has helped immensely.....Or maybe I've just stuck around long enough to become addicted, who knows. Either way, I am glad that this show exists.

April 1, 2013 6:27 pm I'm kind of in love with that Plastic Man sketch. Really great personality.

April 1, 2013 5:35 pm I just picked up the Rocketeer Artist Edition. I promised myself it would be the last time I spend over 100 on a collection that I already own....Looks like I will have to break that promise.

April 1, 2013 3:26 pm Collective subconscious? .....Or maybe this was just one of those moments that all writers have where they read or see something VERY similar to a project they had in mind, and it destroys them, haha. Back on topic, I have enjoyed everything that Wiebe has done, especially Peter Panzerfaust, so I will be picking this up. These are lovely promo images. I had a nice hardy laugh at the 3rd one.

February 22, 2013 12:24 pm Oh man, that Ghost Rider is brilliant.

February 21, 2013 11:19 am This kind of felt like their Valentines Day episode. It was very, dare I say.....Cute.

February 13, 2013 3:15 pm This here...This is my bag. I'm really excited for this. Those covers are gorgeous.

February 5, 2013 11:33 am Yes, to all of these.
