"I'll prepare your usual breakfast then, sir. Coffee, toast...bandages..."
SO! I've been away for a while, and I have tons of good old-fashioned geekery to babble on about. But in an effort to keep the size of this post down, I'm'a just sum up. I've gotten into superheroes lately in a big way. This caused the following:
--I looked up Green Lantern finally and instantly LOVED the whole concept of that universe, and from there, I'm now looking into DC stuff (whereas before my main comic fascination was the X-Men) including the organizations various GL's have belonged to, such as the Justice League/Society.
--Due to that, I started semi-reading Silver Age GL comics, which led me to two conclusions: (a) Hal Jordan used to be genuinely loveable before they screwed him up later, and (b) GROOVY 60S CAMP IS GROOVY, DANGIT. :) Then I backtracked and...
--Started reading (surprisingly violent!) Golden Age comics. Seriously, the baddies AND heroes of 1940 meant business.
--Saw "Wolverine and the X-Men" recently too, as well as rewatching the three Spiderman movies. YES, all three.
--Saw "Justice League: New Frontier" and have a LOT to say about that...I'll post my review under a cut later. Whether you want me to or not.
--And I've FINALLY gotten around to checking out "Batman: The Animated Series", which is where the post title's line comes from. (Alfred says it, of course).
I have fangirlish joking commenting snarky captioning fanart-drawing geekery out the frigging YIN-YANG that I could post here, but I"m trying desperately to keep this one short...ish. And, of course, I've already failed.
