THAT'S RIGHT, I'M BACK, BITCHES

Oh. Wait. I already articulated my arriver-ist tendencies just about six weeks ago, didn't I? Well, perhaps with repetition the tendency to post shall become more regular.

First of all, flist, a plea: I am far behind on Blackest Night. Can anyone provide me with a comprehensive reading list showing in what order I

Yeah, that Hit-Girl trailer made me want to see the movie too. It's great.

White Lanterns! Man, there are so many Lanterns now. And a shirt for every one.

[kali921]

Have the White Lantern shirts come out yet? I haven't seen any, but I have a few insiders at DC that I can ask.

I've been going back and forth for months on which Lantern shirts to buy - I love the Blues, the Indigos, and the Star Sapphires, but red and orange are so my color! On the other hand, I don't want to run around sporting an Orange Lantern shirt because if I bump into people in DC fandom, the first impression they'll get is "Eww, AVARICE LANTERN."

I also want that new Booster Gold fanclub shirt like burning.

Hit-Girl is adorable awesome and knows her way around a garrote, apparently.

I haven't seen White Lantern shirts, but I was in a comic book store in Tucson, and they had all the colored Lantern shirts out. It was crazy.

Oh yeah, I still have that gift for you from Comic-Con, if you want it. It's a poster of the Planetary #27 cover.

[kali921]

You were in Tucson?! When and WHY? As you know, I've made four trips there in the last four months.

Ohmigosh (to quote She-Hulk), that's AMAZING - what a lovely and thoughtful gift. I've wanted a poster of that cover desperately. What a kind thing for you do to, and thank you so much. I'll have to figure out a way to get it.

I have been so psyched to see 'Kick Ass' ever since I saw that footage of Hit Girl killing goons to the Banana Splits theme.

[kali921]

It really is the appropriate theme song to commit mayhem by in my humble opinion.

Love the icon. Why can't I tell what it's from?

Do you watch Lost? It's Mikhail, right before he... does something spoilery.

[kali921]

Given that we've talked about LOST a zillion times into infinity, yes, it's safe to say that I watch LOST. :-) Noow I see Mikhail. Clearly, the part of my brain dedicated to discerning which hatch belongs to which film and which TV show has mold all over it. My dendrites be broken.

HARK, I AM SMOOCHED. Hello, darling! How's things? What winter season movies did you see and what did you think of them?

While that is a very sweet cover for Avengers: The Initiative I'm sad to hear the book is ending. Guess I'll be down to 2 main-line Marvel on-going books now. No, wait I keep forgetting S.W.O.R.D. is on-going...

Also, Tigra is having like the slowest pregnancy EVER if she still isn't showing at all...

[kali921]

Has Tigra decided yet what she's going to do with the Skrull!baby? I'll bet the internet $100 of my hard earned cash that Tigra won't terminate the pregnancy and that she'll decide the keep the baby/babies because Marvel isn't ballsy or courageous enough to have a character so deep in a pregnancy storyline choose to have an abortion.

S.W.O.R.D. is an ongoing? WHOA. Who is writing it? Is it decent? Because Agent Brand was such a stone cold pain in the ass in ASM that I really dislike her as a character. She acts like Nick Fury without any of the chops or experience to back it up.

S.W.O.R.D.

[lurkerwithout]

Kieron Gillen of Phonogram and that Beta Ray Bill mini. Its got Brand and Beast and Lockheed and Henry Gyrich and Death's Head and..well lots more right now...

[kali921]

...And I just now got the significance of Red Mist's name. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Well, to be fair, Hit-Girl's using firearms, too, but yes, Red Mist's costume - he's like if VK, burner fashion, and cybergoth all crashed into each other - is pretty hilarious given that his weapon of choice is a gun.
