I got my JLU 7-pack in the mail today, signifying the end of that toyline. Which means it’s time to finally take stock of all of the duplicate Batmen, Supermen, and whoevers that I amassed in the past decade in the quest to get dudes they were packed with.
When I am done, I plan to just sell them all on eBay for probably five dollars. In the meantime, some preliminary photography. For example:
1) Man, I am surprised I can only find one extra Martian Manhunter. Clearly I must have more somewhere! Did I really only ever end up with just one extra of him? It seems impossible.
2) My original bin of extras was packed in SUPER TIGHT. Like, creating-diamonds-out-of-coal-tight. Related to this tidbit is an observation on how soft and goopy Giganta’s dress is. Whoops.
2a) (Not entirely limited to Giganta’s dress. I had one Superman’s cape embedded in the neck of another.)
3) Woo, “I can breathe in space” Batman!
4) Woo, “Atmosphere-destroying missile” Superman!
5) A sweet ass Scuba Flash. I have a whole team of scuba guys, probably came with an Aquaman, but Flash is the sharpest of those.
anyway i’m too stubborn and impatient for my own good

I wanted to keep Robin as a politician in DoA, meaning she’d be required to be older than everyone else, but since Roz is her little sister, I figured I’d put her in college with the main cast.
I’d like to correct this:
“God, send us someone to cure AIDS, cancer, etc., etc.”
“I did, but you gave them a substandard education because they lived in an area with poor funding due to low property taxes.
I did, but you let them die because they couldn’t afford healthcare.
I did, but due to racism you stomped out their potential and didn’t give them the same opportunities.
I did, but you make a college education too unaffordable while giving the big bankers passes.
I did, but you saw a homeless youth before you saw a kid with potential.
I did, but you kicked the downtrodden while they were already shoulder deep in sinking sand.”

I did, but you forced her to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term, forcing her to become a single mother with limited income, having to sacrifice her college dreams in order to provide for her unwanted child.

I have not seen it. I know it’s the bestest thing ever, etc etc, but I’ve never liked vampires. Not just the sparkly kind, but any kind, and since forever. I just dislike the whole conceit. They annoy me.

We got to see the back of Ethan’s mom’s head. We probably won’t ever see them in the Walkyverse, but we might see them in the Dumbiverse.
The 5 Days of #SDCC.
[ Originally published on hijinksensue.com ]
I had a revelation about San Diego Comic-Con this year. In the years, months and weeks leading up to the show I posted some rather negative thoughts about the SDCC exhibitor experience. It’s too big, too poorly organized, too expensive, too not focused on comics… etc, etc. These things are all still true, but most of them are true (in some way) of most North American conventions. I finally realized that there are two contributing factors that make SDCC seem like such a monster by comparison. They are A) The 2 extra days and B) the 100,000 extra people.
Let me explain. Regarding A), most comic conventions are 3 days long, Friday through Sunday. Anime conventions are usually 4 days, but you can easily skip the first day as most anime kids are in school on Thursday. You can also skip the next day as well as the two following days, because most anime conventions are macabre pits of despair and torment. San Diego, on the other hand, is 5 days. 5 ACTUAL days. The show starts properly on Wednesday and there are 10′s of thousands of people there on Wednesday ready to go go go! That means you really need to be there on Tuesday to set up, if not first thing Wednesday morning. Even then, you still might be flying in on Tuesday and either way you’ve committed almost a solid week to this show. This is all compounded by the fact that due to its size and scope, one day at SDCC feels like 4 at any other show. By the time you crawl out of the airplane and back into your own bed, you’ve lost the mental, and emotional equivalent of at least a year. When you break it down, no 1 day of SDCC is that draining or even unpleasant at all. It’s the week that you lose that makes it feel that way.
Concerning B), there is no other comic type convention in the world where 100,000+ people attend the show (ie are walking around on the show floor), and an ADDITIONAL 100,000ish people are just IN SAN DIEGO for some reason. [Read the rest HERE]

Optimus Prime doesn’t kill Megatron, the war ends and they all leave Earth to rebuild Cybertron together. As per the various adaptations like the comic book and the novelization.
Meanwhile, John Barber wrote his DOTM prequel stuff to be all about “Optimus Prime has to control his growing insane battle lust etc etc” which would have made a lot more sense with the original ending, with Optimus not reflexively skewering Megatron like a shrimp kabob. Instead, that resolution kind of never happens and Optimus never learns the established lesson.
My newest kickstarter is live! Eat Me follows Rhonda, a shy girl working in a pharmaceutical factory. After being splashed with a strange drug, she finds herself hallucinating a world where she is a blue haired goddess and all the people are made of food. And she’s very hungry. Luckily, plenty of these sexy food ladies are willing to let her have a bite… if she can pleasure them first! Eat Me is a humorous allegory for vampires. We’ve all been exposed to the “sexy vampire” trope, but when you think about it, vampires sexing up humans is, from their perspective, the same as sexing up a walking talking slice of pizza. Eat Me is a humorous breakdown of that overplayed story. The art is cute and colorful, with lots of pretty sexy girls.
This ran on Filthy Figments from 2012-2014. Now it’ll be in print. There’s 20 new illustrations AND a brand new 18 page bonus chapter included!
It’s 212 pages of literal food porn. I’m extremely proud of it. I also have bundles of my other comics that you can pick up for discounted prices through the kickstarter. Help spread the word and make this book a reality!
