I guess it must be funny, because everyone likes it and I still laugh whenever I read it despite being the one who wrote it I am such a loser. Grant Morrison's sheer insanity inspires fun summaries.

This is how Batman: The Return went, according to me skimmin' in the comic shop.

Bruce: Barbara, Stephanie! So glad you could join us.

Steph: Yeah, this ( Read more... )

Here are my pics!

Okay, before we get into the comics I bought, let's talk about one I by all rights should have bought, but that I ended up not getting out of sheer disgust (and not wanting to waste money on a comic I wouldn't enjoy...) after reading at work ( Read more... )

As a supplement to my BSR post (which is here: www.bigshinyrobot.com/reviews/archives/5512), here are the trading cards I picked up for free on Free Comic Book Day.

So, I asked John out yesterday. Seemed the day, and I had had it up to here with waiting around.

School tomorrow, blurgh. On the other hand, Robin tomorrow! Always a silver lining.

So at Books A Million, I found a pretty good Batman encyclopedia. It was up to date as far as Batman and the Outsiders #2 (Which means Cass's entry said she was good again, yay) and had a fairly sympathetic description of Stephanie (Favorite line "Cassandra liked ( Read more... )
