Recs Sought!
I'll be travelling a lot this summer, and I need to stock my ebook reader! At the moment I have only seven books left to read in it, and I live in terror of running out (seriously, it's a phobia; I've been known to INSIST on going book shopping because I only had a few hundred pages left and couldn't bear the prospect of running out). So I ( Read more... ) -

Scans: Trinity 4
Well, the boring purple Konvikt is still around, being boring and purple this week. But the fight scene does have some good character touches, showing the Trinity working together at each thing they do best.
Also, more of Eddie advertising that hey, Batman, call me anytime. I love you for your mind.
Batman "inspires" a family to move to safety:

Two Videos of Gleefulness
Two Youtube videos making me happy today:
1. Weezer's "Pork and Beans" music video. I'm something of an amateur Internet memologist, and the way Weezer uses (and celebrates and redeems) the goofy craziness that is Youtube micro-celebrity just fills me with glee. (Note to arch_schatten--look for a cameo by Charlie the Unicorn!) It's also a really good song ( Read more... ) -

Scans: Trinity #3
Hm. Trinity continues to be about the Trinity but feature distressingly little of the Trinity. If I were paying for this book (and I may well buy it in TPB later) I'd be a bit disappointed to end up mostly watching the JLA sans Trinity fighting a big purple...thing. I'm sorry, I cannot take seriously an alien villain named Konvikt. I just can't ( Read more... ) -

Scans: Trinity #2
There was a pretty big earthquake in Japan this morning, but it was way up north--didn't feel a ripple here. There was a smaller one we did feel yesterday during class, though...so it might be a jittery weekend.
This week...a Trinity with no Superman-Batman interaction is a week without sunshine. :) But there are still some nice things about this ( Read more... )
