Oh, man, this is gonna be great

So this morning, DC announced they're gonna do Before Watchmen (which, duh, everyone already knew). So, yeah, mega splotch of talent there. They even got JMS on a couple books, so we can make jokes about him quitting halfway.
Amusingly enough, issue nine (?) of The Twelve came out today. Shame I no longer give a fuck. Seriously, I hit acceptance somewhere in 2009 and JMS can eat a bag of dicks. I got an email asking if I'd like to buy a copy of the B5 timeline, to which I said fuck no. Seriously, the only book they published I wanted was the one that you could only get if you bought 14 screenplay books.
Anyway, nerds are going bugfuck. There's angry posts on twitter, and on the blogosphere, and other people are going "Well, Moore based his work off other people's work, so why should he be upset, garble yarble dargle".
It's so great. I just want to sit in front of a bunch of computer screens and read all the blog posts and comments and tell my viet cong housemen how awesome it is.

nerd rage, watchmen, comic books, b5
