I've just mainlined Astro City, from the early issues to the end of the second book about the Dark Ages. Whoo. Did it after posting The Confessor's story on scans_daily.
Aw, man, the Silver Agent... I don't know why it is that the best and fastest way to get me to love a character is to have them selflessly act to save people. Especially people who don't seem to deserve it. But it is. "There are some rough times, people. But don't worry. It's all going to be okay."
Aw, man.
I love Astro City. But... wow.
In other news, I used an interlibrary loan thing to get the Heir To The Empire audiobook, which was narrated by Wedge's actor, Dennis Lawson. It's horribly abridged and on a cassette, which I hadn't expected. But I really wanted this to hear his voice.
He's not that good at audiobook stuff. While he tries to do voices, he doesn't always stay with them. But he sounds more like Ewan MacGregor than I'd have thought. An odd accent, and he pronounces some things oddly. Door is doer, look is luke, Leia is Leea. It's interesting.
And his Thrawn voice is startlingly sexy. I wish someone'd put part of it on Youtube so I could share it... I don't have the tech to do it myself.
