I did today's Cybernev Sunday on my Free Comic Book Day experiences and reviews:

Also I saw these adorable Renee!Question and Batwoman mini mates there. And Nightwing, Starfire, Cyborg, and Raven ones! Awesome.

Got caught in the rain when I walked with Dad today. That was fun.

Just a quick check in amongst all my AP studying fiascos.

After AP's are over, I plan to do a rebuttal post to a few Wonder Woman posts on WFA that I would like the debate...WITH SCIENCE! Or comics canon, whichever you'd choose. But that happy day is not today. I did do a Wonder Woman related post on BSR about the history of Wondy sidekicks.

First of all, I am super excited by the DC July solicits. Wednesday comics looking AWESOME! Black Canary and Wonder Woman team up by Gail Simone! Artemis in Secret Six! Spoiler (hopefully not horribly mangled...ohhh, I'm so trying to be optimistic...)!

The bad news, is Kriesberg is still writing both the Black Canary and Green Arrow parts of Green ( Read more... )

We has a day off today, hooray. So, I will give you my reviews for the three comics I bought this week.

Oracle #1:

I bought this comic against my better judgment. As I expected, my judgment was right. The art was pretty though. Did a detailed review here.  www.bigshinyrobot.com/reviews/archives/4651 . *insert RAGH THE BETTER NOT MAKE BABS BATGIRL  ( Read more... )

Today, I played catch and did martial arts with my Dad. It's our usual thing.

I've been playing baseball when I was six. As a result, I can catch and throw stuff perfectly without even thinking about it. It's very weird and pretty awesome whenever I do it, because it's like, the one thing I do that runs entirely on instinct. And I feel all powerful ( Read more... )

Today has been rather depressed thanks to the situation with scans_daily. I did do a hard hitting expose for BSR on the subject: www.bigshinyrobot.com/reviews/archives/4310

I also went to Book a Million and finished up Watchmen! As well as several art books and "Watching the Watchmen" and "Philosophy of Watchmen" and what not. I liked it. A bit ( Read more... )

Been reading Robin to my Mom lately, and it makes me a weird mix of happy and depressed. I'd forgotten how utterly adorable and likable I found Tim under Dixon. He's such a nerd! And he's always preoccupied with the latest teenage drama, and not angstangstangsting about every fifth person he knows dying. Granted, he's a dick about his secret ( Read more... )

Stop emailing my net-friends. They do not like you and will not respond. Unless they are like shane, and enjoy that sort of thing. I know you want me to take down the email on lj. I'm not doing it. For many reasons ( Read more... )

Must...do...scholarship...paper...

But not until after I do this!

First of all,I found  another lovingly detailed series of anti Wonder Woman posts on WFA. I wonder what the deal is. I can understand not liking a character but I've seen must have seen a bazillion people post on why Wonder Woman isn't a good female icon or character in their eyes ( Read more... )

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

He said he "needed time to think about it" and sounded kind of freaked out. I've seen enough movies and read enough books to know that means "no." Se la vie. Hope it doesn't affect the friendship and we can get over it.

I'm just glad I took the risk. It's ( Read more... )
