THAT'S RIGHT, I'M BACK, BITCHES

Oh. Wait. I already articulated my arriver-ist tendencies just about six weeks ago, didn't I? Well, perhaps with repetition the tendency to post shall become more regular.

First of all, flist, a plea: I am far behind on Blackest Night. Can anyone provide me with a comprehensive reading list showing in what order I

Pretty sure that's Velma, by the socks and sweater. And glasses.

Hi. :)

*hangs head*

Thanks for the Velma catch. Post has been edited accordingly. Given that I watched so much Scooby Doo as a kid, I knew better.

Hi. :-) How are you?

Awesome, awesome, AWESOME picture of Tigra there! It just about erases all the stupid shit that Bendis did to her a couple years ago, which I swear I'll still call him out on if I ever see him.

DOESN'T it? What I would have given to have Greer so resolute like that in all of Marvel continuity the last four years. I don't want Greer's playful side stripped from her, mind you - although too playful skates us perilously close to the Abyss of Byrne - but Tigra knows what she wants. That's been one of the hallmarks of her character since her inception, even though the WCA and Byrne.

That should always come through in her character, methinks. She is decisive. And kick ass.

Edit: Yes to seeing Kick-Ass. I'll totally shell out for it unless the few reviewers I trust hate it, although expecting people at, say, Salon.com to understand a movie based on a comic book is like expecting Dick Cheney to understand global warming.

Do feel free to give Mr. Yardin a link to this here.

Oh, is David Yardin on LJ? Feel free to direct him here so that I can thank him IN VIRTUAL PERSONA. :-)

The Tigra mini can be found here at Mile High or probably on eBay. Amazingly? It's Deodato on art duties - this was the period where he was transitioning from, um, let's say his more mundane and anatomically improbable period to getting SO MUCH BETTER. I couldn't believe it was Deodato's work when I first bought the Tigra mini when it came out in 2002. The coloring for that mini was outstanding, too - all warm, amber hues and tones and shades for when Greer's in her Tigra form, and then to a cooler palette of blues, greens, and greys for when she's in her non-Tigra form.

The next time I saw Deodato be anywhere this good was on Ellisbolts, but then he was back to posing all the female characters in ways that would break their spines - and he was doing this while they were doing the gunslinger walk.

But by the Pancreator, he did beautiful page layouts early on in his run with Ellis - just some fantastic work. That double page

Good to see you around. <3

QUESTIONS FOR YOU.

[kali921]

Hi, babe. Did you see the LJ gift I gave you? You've been terse. Did you change your AIM again, btw? If so, can you e-mail me and let me know? Wait, I still your e-mail address, so I'll e-mail you. I also have a package to send to you! Don't make me hunt you down, I'm too exhausted all the time to do a credible job at it.

NOW, QUESTIONS: Can you tell me in what episodes Carter appears in Smallville? Like, a list? Because I'm gearing up for the big January premiere - I am SO all over the JSA storyline, and THEY REMEMBERED TO PUT DR. FATE IN HIS HELMET OF MYSTIC PIZZA.

[canadabear]

I did see it, yes! Thank you! I have not meant to be terse, I just had a fairly bad December of my own. But things are getting a bit better now. My AIM is NorthlandOurs, but I'm never on it anymore. If you're going to be around, I may change that, though.

Carter is in the Big JSA Movie Event on Feb. 5th. Basically, they made what was originally two separate episodes of Smallville into a two hour special that's airing all at once. Same episode also has Amanda Waller's introduction, although she'll be in more episodes throughout the season. She's heading up Checkmate.

[kali921]

Oh, good, you're still around. <3

What I meant was: I'm looking for a list of episodes that he's appeared in up until now. Can you recall offhand?

[homicidalfink]

!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHITE LANTERNS.

Guh. I'm still waiting for the trade so I can enjoy all of the Black Latern run at once. But. I can't wait.

And that Tigra looks bad-ass. GO GREER.

[kali921]

Hi! Did you get the PM that I sent to you a couple of weeks ago?

The problem with trades is that DC screwed up the order of things when they printed The Sinestro Corps crossover in trade - and for a perfectionist like me, ARGH, NO. So I'm hoping that they don't do the same for Blackest Night - I want all the precursor issues, everything. But yeah, I may have to just jump in, start reading what's out now, and then wait for the trade experience.

[homicidalfink]

.... No. I even checked my inbox. What was it?

I'm too scatter-brained for anything but trades these days, because even if I miss an issue here and there, or read out of orders, it's still all in one place. And somewhat kidproof.

[kali921]

I sent a PM from my Kendra account to your Irene account thanking you the RP that we've had the last two years and for the LJ gift. :-) At least I'm pretty sure that I did! Maybe it was from this account homicidalfink, now I can't remember! But I definitely sent one!

[kali921]

Hi, darling. Every time I watch an episode of Californication I think of you because of David Duchovny. Even though his character in Californication is the polar opposite of Mulder.
