Also Robin's a little girly, but that's how he's best!
That Ivy has clothes on. How amazing.
I challenge you to watch this video and not have to go pee.
I know they had to give Nightwing a reason to leave the story and couldn't use the ones that existed in the comics, but *really*, the best acrobat in the DCU sprains his ankle in a fall that doesn't even phase Batman? Re-dick-ulous.
Greenwood is eh, ok. But Deitrich Bader is my Batman now.

Early on in Highlander, Methos comes across as quite nice and a bit soft on McCleod - offers to die so that Mac can defeat... the other guy. Can't recall his name right now.
Later on, Methos is shown as only really concerned with his own survival, if it comes to him vs anyone else. Did you find that to be any sort of a contradiction?

Looks like they're marketing this as much more of youthful (yes I mean for the kids) show. I know it was always meant to be, but somehow it rarely succeeded.
Good grief those are adorable. Beards aren't adorable! They make babies cry!
Seriously these are cute.
@TomSkylark: Terrible? You mean terrific!
I like Daken more than his father at this point - less pathos, more hubris! But yeah, I suppose it's debatable whether or not powers like that don't just make you a rapist if you actually use them to get sex, instead of other sorts of favors.
I really wish Charles Stross would write an episode or two of Dr Who. His Atrocity Archives/Jennifer Morgue series has just the right flavor for some of the lighter Who episodes that I love so much.
The show was better before Krikpe decided that Dean was the fruit of Kripke's loins. A balanced show is a better show. This show is two whiny bitches alternately drinking themselves to tears or repressing things, but Sam being more so.
Also after four seasons of Kripke saying 'this is how it will go' and it happening in EXACTLY that fashion, there's no drama to this season or the end of the show. Very unfortunate.
@Chris Braak: I was coming to leave a comment but you've covered it completely!
The *Clothes*. I'm really going to miss the clothes.
It's a neat-looking cover. Not worth all the bad feelings though. And you know, right-click and save and I have the only copy of it I need!
The episode as a whole wasn't very strong, and their existential exposition bits at the end are brutally forced this past season - but I'm glad the show's back!
Thought the funniest bit was 'pudding!' because the sound effects were intact.
I liked the book, and as you may know, I'm not Grant Morrison's biggest fan ever. I thought it was engaging enough to make me pick up a second issue - but it was smart that the first issue was a dollar, so they could capture more than just those who are already hardcore adherents of the writer.
I had missed the word 'Hypo' at first, and I still found it pretty engaging, although it made a lot more sense once it was pointed out to me, plus the pen. As a longtime fantasy reader, I'm just not that phased by people falling into other worlds unexpectedly, I guess!
I liked the art quite a bit but I had one - small - complaint. I am really tired of 'my comic is different than the mainstream and you can tell because it is pinkish/brownish in tone!' It may work as things go forward, as it looks like the Playland colors are quite a bit brighter. Still it's a conceit that seems overworked these days, from the noir-pulp crime books to this. I think Unwritten's captured a much more viable palette while still setting itself apart from the vigorous hues of the superhero world.
Still, quite interested in the next issue. I just finished I Kill Giants and am sort of in the mood to live in someone else's head again.
Wow, Roy Keane and Eric Cantona both represented. This guy is a United fan.
Psh, there was never any competition. Alfred raised Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson, Jarvis couldn't raise an eyebrow.
Amen, this set of books may be my favorite of the whole Bat-related set.
Unless they're investing in land for a spaceport so they can go raid the shuttle and space station, what makes this an io9 story?
