Five thoughts after watching the third and fourth episodes of The Batman (last night)

1) Another Batman villain I've never cared for?  Penguin.  The "Kabuki Twins" were suitably neat and frightening, though.  So...I guess I like my Batman villains to be inhumanly graceful and freaky as all get-out?  Uh...yeah, actually, that seems to cover most of the ones I have any particular interest in (I'm not entirely sure Scarecrow is "

Poor Dorman; he attempted to delete the blog entry in question -- but, alas, this is The Internet, where you can't actually delete anything. XD

(I'd think about putting Saga on my subscriptions list, too -- except I JUST _forced_ myself to cut my subscription list in half (I GOT RID OF TWO "BATMAN" TITLES, FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD), so now is not the time to start adding books back again, alas. Especially since I'm still WAITING FOR THEM TO START RELEASING BATMAN BEYOND AGAIN, FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD

I just don't even. Not even a little bit. I mean, I could be sympathetic (if still annoyed and in thorough disagreement mode) if this was a case of someone objecting to immodesty, full stop. But this is a guy who literally makes a living selling images, many of which contain everything-but-the-aureole-and-vagina depictions of women, specifically designed to catch the attention of passersby, and he's complaining about a picture of a woman using her breasts for something other than selling comic books to adolescent boys. And then the hypocritical son of a biznatch, apparently surprised that the internet didn't soak in his words of wisdom and nod agreement, thinks pulling the rant will do anything but make him look worse. I am SO IRRITATED I CAN'T EVEN. And to think, I had never heard of him until last night.

Luckily, nearly all of my comics have either just come to an end or are going to be doing so in the next couple of months, so I can afford to give Saga a try for a few issues. We'll see if it's worth further consideration
