Thanks for letting me know about that! That was my first LJ fandom, and I haven't read the books in a dog's age (and never finished the series). I'm so in.

Yay! I knew a couple of people on my flist had mentioned they were reading or had read the series, so I figured mentioning the comm might encourage some of us to group up there, and I could channel some of my squee over there. :)

"Like Madonna." *DIES LAUGHING FOREVER*

Oh man, those trailers are amazing! Love the voice casting for Batman and Joker... not so sure about Superman, but you're right, the interaction between Bats and Supes is PRICELESS.

...ROBINCOPTER A;ASHGLAHSDKLFJALKDHF OMG. And Timmy thought the Redbird was cool!

Superman sounds kind of like a Jovial Sitcom Dad, I'm afraid. :P I'm having a lot of fun with it, even though Superman has only showed up once for some snark and Batman pretended to ignore him, lol. It's fun playing as Robin, too! :)

<--iz sad

I don't know where my Aubrey/Maturin books are. Well, they're stuffed in one of a million boxes jammed into a storage unit, but that's about the closest I can get to pinning it down. :(

On the other hand, those LEGO vids....!

<--iz happy

"Come on, cheer up, sourpuss!" Too adorable.

Is that Mark Hamill as the Joker?

I believe that's not Hamill (he's said that Arkham Asylum was his last role as Joker) but it's someone who's working really hard to sound like him and doing pretty well. :) It's such a fun game!

And awww on the lack of Aubreyad books! :) If you happen to run across them...well, the last re-read took five years, so I think there's some time. *grin*

I haven't read the books at all yet! You say this is starting July 13th? I'll have to find out if the local library carries them! I'd love to finally pick them up.

We're waiting for the price on Lego SuperBats to go down to reasonable 'used' amounts before we pick it up, but we're also really excited!

July 13, yes! I hope maybe your library has them, they're a lot of fun! And I look forward to hearing what you think of Lego Superbat (clearly the PROPER name) when you have a chance to play it! At the rate we play you may well lap us. :)

Good news! I'll be late to join the discussion group, but once Tal gets paid on the 15th I get a copy of my very own to keep of Master and Commander (we'll order it that day with 2 day shipping :-D) So I won't be too far behind!

Yay, you can catch up pretty easy, I think! *dances happily*

Those vids were SOOOOO AWESOME! Loved them! :D
Thanks for sharing it. :)

I'm loving this game, it's super-snarky, and...I'm only about two hours in and Bruce is clearly kind of awkward and uncomfortable around Superman (it might be guilt about that huge store of Kryptonite he has in the Batcave!)...I'm looking forward to having a chance to play with damos as the two of them!
