What Kind of Comic are You?
Super Hero Comic You are SUPER HERO COMICS! You're everything that's good and slightly old fasioned! You're honorable, fair, and attractive, though at times you can be predictable. You have a strong moral code that you abide by at all times. You may also have problems connecting with the opposite sex. But don't worry, you'll get the girl in the end!

I can't blame Ragnell for nailing the manner in which this meme goes off the rails.

Superman / Batman Annual #1

I had to switch mental gears a couple of times while reading the S/B Annual until I realized (to stretch a metaphor to the breaking point) that it's best to take it out of gear and just coast. Yeah, it was pure fun.

Being utterly unfamiliar with Deadpool (I didn't know who he was supposed to be), the fact that he didn't get to say his name was only annoying. I guess readers with less DC history might wonder who the parallel Bruce, Clark and Lois were.

In a way, it reminds me of the 2001 two-parter in Superman #168 and Detective #756, where Batman and Lois sneak into the White House to steal President Luthor's kryptonite ring.

I missed seeing one of those long, convoluted expository monologues Weisinger would have had someone say. But then the panel would probably have exploded.

He's back!

Yes, Robby Reed, creator of Dial B For Blog, is back from a lengthy and mysterious hiatus with a ten-part series on Ira Schnapp.

Ira Schnapp, you may ask? Who he?

Well, if you love comic books, he's probably a big part of the reason why.

Followup

Let's check my work.

First: Yes, they cheated by changing silhouettes and bow color, but it's not like it's the first time they've done that.

Forward center, a Green Lantern: Oh, you know it's Hal.

Check.

Two o'clock, a Green Arrow: I'd love to see Arsenal, but it's far more likely to be Connor.

Well, don't that beat all. It is Arsenal, probably to be known as "Red Arrow" now. Unless someone thinks "Arsenal" starts with an R. Maybe the belt was a "graduation" present from Ollie. Ollie never was one of the DCU's great thinkers.

Perhaps it's time for Fawcett's Golden Arrow to put in an appearance. (In light of this development, things don't look good for Connor Hawke in his upcoming miniseries.)

Top, a Hawkperson: Look at that headpiece. It's Hawkgirl.

Check.

Top left: Given his vapor trail, that almost has to be Red Tornado.

Check. The worst-kept secret in comics.

Top right: Bulleteer.

Oops.

Right center, behind Superman: Zatanna. Second thoughts: Vixen.

Well, at least I put Vixen somewhere. I really wasn't expecting Black Canary, but if someone had to "graduate" from Birds of Prey, she's the logical candidate.

Above Zatanna, to the right of Batman: That silhouette is so generic it could be almost anybody, but given all the talk about a Teen Titan "graduating" into the JLA, I'm thinking it has to be Cyborg.

And taking the Bald Black Guy chair, previously held by John Stewart and Dale Gunn, we now have... Black Lightning? Another oops for me.

Better late?

I know, I know, I feel terrible.

Thank goodness for Mark Evanier.

Ashes to ashes, pulp to pulp

I think it's safe to say that Booster Gold is getting more attention right this second than he ever has before. I can almost hear speculators raising prices on his #1 issue.

Booster would have liked that.

And Lo, there shall come... a Template!

Nothing like a makeover to make a blog feel... heroic.

(You know, I'd like to just keep my mouth shut and hope you think I'm clever, but I honestly didn't think what this color scheme reminded me of until after I'd done it.)

I sure hope I'm not the only one who knows who Zook is/was. No, wait, I know I'm not. Scipio remembers.

Monkey Woman -- No More!

I'm sorry, I'm inconsolable.

The very idea that Stan Lee might be offended that one of his "superheroes" is *gasp* an actor. I mean, really. You hold an open casting call for a television series, and an actor shows up. In Los Angeles. What are the odds?

I'm also tickled that, at least once in each episode, Stan says something that proves beyond doubt that he doesn't read comics, not even characters he created.

"Heroes don't kill people."
"Disco is dead."
"Can you imagine Clark Kent or Peter Parker revealing his identity?"

It's OK, Stan. This show's target audience doesn't read them either.

I'm in love.

How can you not love Monkey Woman?

I don't even care what the bananas are for, okay? This woman hangs upside down from a tree and screams like a monkey--on national television. (Well, cable television.)

And lets two attack dogs gnaw on her for ten minutes because she is by Gum not going to disappoint Stan Lee.

If you're not moved by that, well, your heart is made of stone, I tell you, cold hard stone.
