you and your women hating ways, Renee is awesome.


I don't hate Renee. She's not bad, she's not that great either.

Maybe a top 20 superhero list. I wonder if I could manage to come up with a final list. Hmm.

LtM you should post a list of a bunch of great DC characters, just off the top of your head. Try to get all of the big names too (I honestly don't think DC has many of them).

If I made a top DC characters list, it'd be 60-70% GL characters, 20-25% Batman characters, and then everything else.


Yeah mine would pretty much consist of mostly Batman characters, with Wally West somewhere in there, as well as Hal Jordan, Kyle Rayner, Guy Gardner, and Superman.

But I'm trying to have only one character per family, so... it makes it a bit more difficult.

It'd be pretty funny if JL#1 topped charts in August AND September, at least.

I wonder if DC will release those digital sales numbers, or if they'll pull a STeam.

Hey, that's how you really get crazy digital sales: Comics section on Steam.

That was like... in the Silver Age, before Star Sapphires became a Corps, it was just one gem that controlled Carol or whatever. Now that there's a Corps of them, they're no longer villains, especially not Carol of them all.

LtM trivia

A guy at Dr. Nos recommended Hexed to me while I was recommending Strange Girl to a friend about 2 and a half years ago, and I decided to pick it up and now it's one of my favorite comics of all time. :)

Damn shame it's only a 4 issue miniseries. But it's still the nicest looking trade I own, what with the golden bookmark string and all.

Anyone who hasn't read it should pick up Hexed. It's only $12. Though I would HIGHLY recommend the $16 hardcover.
