OH GOSH HUNTRESS. <3 <3 <3 Hey, you know what I could do instead of writing, I could totally do a post about Huntress and BoP and why everyone should read them and guilt you into doing it too! :D Okay, I probably won't, but I do love almost all of BoP. And OH MAN YES, I saw that post about the disconnect between script and artist and LAUGHED SO HARD. I have to admit it makes me kind of sad that Chuck Dixon as apparently WORRIED that people would DARE to think there could be something going on between Babs and Dinah and so he had to take steps to ward it off preemptively, but we did get out fabulous supergay moment of awesomeness so I guess I can't be too upset. :P

I am definitely going to be trying to blog about my thoughts on what I'm reading and will be looking forward to seeing what you think about yours! The solicits for Catwoman are worrying. I am trying to stay optimistic, though! And, hee, you know, since they are apparently de-aging a lot of continuity, the JL: Dark group could end up a bunch of emos - I hadn't thought about that before! Though now I'm trying to picture a teenage John Constantine and failing. I think they're aiming it more to a horror audience, which is not something I'd usually be interested in, but I do love Zatanna and Madame Xanadu sooooo... we'll see. I think I'm going to give this list till the end of the year to se whether I like them all - that's four issues each before I re-think, that's pretty fair, eh?

WONDER WOMAN. MAN. I know you're right - it CAN'T GET WORSE. And frankly I'm THRILLED at the possibility that the current run will be erased from continuity. I can pretend it never fucking happened. And the art looks fantastic, and it's only when writers ignore the gods that they really go off WW, but... I'm just worried. I'm pretty sure I'll buy it, but... I am trying to manage my expectations, as it were. :P

I had not heard that about the incentives, and, eek! It is worrying that WW is on that list, omg. (Though if this current run wasn't so awful maybe it wouldn't have to be aaaargh) I am glad to see they're pushing it, but man, do you think it would help if they could figure out how to make a tv show that isn't CRAP and maybe decide whether or not she should keep wearing pants and blah blah blah dammit. Sigh. I just hope it stays good.
