[16:50] <Bobo> Talia: D: noes they be questionin my virtuez
[16:50] <Jillibean> Terry: Shut up, /Ra's/.

<Jeribot> OH MAN did you see someone on my intro post was like 'Now I want to play Hellboy! Except I don't have time!' and I was like "No of course not! You should never! I MEAN. YES. DO IT."
<Slarti> That person could play Hellboy, but then due to lack of time, he's always busy off somewhere else, having his own standalone adventures while the rest of the BPRD gets fucked up by frogs and under-dwellers.
<Jeribot> hahah
<Slarti> Not that I'm making any particular sort of meta-commentary, *Mike*.

---

<Jillibean> I don't know why this makes me laugh.
<Jillibean> I think it's because the mudkip is like :|
<Kai> XD
<Slarti> The mudkip's true purpose... is *sinister*.

<RayCookies> Me and Frank Miller
<RayCookies> we're like (crosses fingers)
<RayCookies> This
<Jillian> his whores are your whores
<RayCookies> (nods sagely) Dude, once. He even let me burn one up in a vat of butterscotch
<RayCookies> We drank fizzless cola
<Jillian> snork
<RayCookies> and nodded to each other

Oh man. This is all I got.

Well, and Eddie, who has apparently finally been outriddled. Will this cause him to take overwrought and oversized revenge on the entire earth?

What would Grant Morrison think?

Also, though this is not strictly comics business and everybody knows about it already, I love Warren Ellis's Twitter. This is one of my favorite sequences thus far:

The state of relations between two of Batman's rogue gallery. (SFW)


<Jillian> here is Trickster. he is dead ;__; but it is ok, he is in a better place (... un...less he isn't, and he pops up again in the upcoming Hell storyline)
<Kitling> Those are some awesome shoes he has
<Jillian> Piper and his STUPID KEYTAR B|
<Kitling> Keytar: :(
<Slarti> haha
<Jillian> he has his rat friend :>
<Jillian> ok the keytar does ONE useful thing and that is subtly disguise how gay his pants are. ..... by being SPECTACULARLY gay right in front of them.
<Slarti> And he has goggles, which are neither green sunglasses nor glowing green eyes.
<Jillian> hahahaha SHUT UP SLARTI
<Jillian> DC continuity: *whhOOooOoOOoop!*
<Slarti> Rip's eyes: *keep changing colors*
<Jillian> Piper: *to Rip* can I borrow your eye drops :(
<Slarti> Rip: Just as long as you don't use 'em as sunglasses cleaner.


( In which we speculate about teenager versions of DC characters. )

<Slarti> I really wish the dialogue, during the Darkseid/Superman fight, where Darkseid's flipping out about Superman daring to touch him, had been written so Superman replied, "Superman dares all, Darkseid!"
<Slarti> It wouldn't really have made up for the idiocy of the fight, but it would've at least been mildly funny.
* Jillian then pictures Superman lounging casually on Mary Marvel's couch, eating all the nachos, rearranging her TiVo, x-raying her walls for lead in the paint, etc.

( We took all of the continuity from both DC and Marvel. They can't be trusted with it anymore. )

<Jillian> wh.....at
<Kai_> "over 63 metahuman abilities" what, not OVER NIIIIINE THOOOOOOUUUUSAAAAND?
<Kai_> Also I do not think parallel universe probability works that way :(
<Jillian> hahaha WHAT?? OUTRAGEOUS, KAI
<Kai_> "countermeasures against Themysciran magic in the event of an Amazon Attack" O RLY
<Kai_> I wonder if Attack was capitalised BEFORE that series
<Kai_> "He hits Wally West with a beam that takes away his protective aura, so that the very act of running damages him faster than his Healing Factor can keep up with" Wally has what. ... Speed Force >:/
<Terana> EVERYONE has a healing factor, baby.
<Jillian> "Triumph later came under the influence of a malign Thunderbolt named Lkz" .... really. "Lkz"?
<Slarti> Ah, yes.
<Terana> Unless they're wimminz. Then cold temperatures'll neutralise it.
<Terana> *roundabout*
<Jillian> At the end of this arc, the Spectre transformed Triumph into ice and prepared to smash him with a hammer, but was stopped by a compassionated plea by the angel Zauriel.
<Jillian> His ice form was stored in the Justice League headquarters. Grant Morrison, the writer of this story, later destroyed the headquarters, but forgot to remove Triumph from there, presumably killing him in the process.
<Jillian> Yay, Grant!
<Kai_> Thunderbolts need no vowels
<Kai_> And lulz
<Kai_> So the JLA can terraform Mars, but only if the Earth needs evacuating, bitches.
<Terana> Well, you know what they call proactive heroes.
<Terana> Tony Stark.
<Jillian> hahahahaa
<Terana> :(
<Slarti> Thunderbolts are from the 5th Dimension. They don't use vowels; just ask Mxyzptlk.

---

<Jillian> "A brilliant doctor named Dr. Engstrom reconnected his optic nerves to his fingertips, enabling him to see through them." I'm not sure we're all using the same definition of "brilliant", here.
<Kai_> ... Hahaha um
<Terana> Eyes do not work like that. ._.
<Kai_> That's... no.
<Shard> That word you keep using. I do not think it means what you think it means.
<Jillian> "I've reconnected your eyes to your FINGERS!!"     "BRILLIANT!!!!"
<Mattybee> "MAN MASTURBATING IS SO WEIRD NOW >_<"
<Terana> It's a Guinness commercial!
<Kai_> Thanks, Matty, for taking it there
<Mattybee> No problem

In other news, Grant Morrison is insane, which we knew but now we know. It's magic!

<Jillian> hahahaha, MUST you REALLY call Nightwing's projectiles "wingdings"
<Kai_> LOL
<Kassy> ... that just makes me think of Dick throwing random ass symbols at people.
<Kassy> SQUIGGLY AMPERSAND
<Kai_> ... Yes
<Jillian> hahahah, yes
<Jillian> *bonk* "wtf???"
<Kassy> BOLD ARROW
<Jillian> "WHERE THE FUCK ARE THESE COMING FROM"
<Kai_> Tim: *Studies aftermath of one of Dick's fights* But what is he trying to SAY??
<Jillian> XD
<Kassy> Tim would UNDERSTAND.
<Kassy> The HIDDEN MESSAGE
<Kassy> Of Dick's FIGHTING STYLE
<Kai_> *Snerk*
<Jillian> Tim: *doodles* b...uttse... no, I put that down for ALL of them.


( Buttload! )

<j> also, would it kill the government to LEAVE CAPTAIN BOOMERANG'S CORPSE ALONE ALREADY? O____o Lol Nightwing #140, he's a ... flying zombie monkey.
<k> Somewhere, deep in the bowels of congress, is a very bored yet inventive clerk who somehow got elected "Dude In Charge Of Captain Boomerang's Corpse" and he is going to have his fun doing crazy shit with it, damn you all B|
<j> hahahaha
<t> XD
<t> He rents it out by the hour.
<j> Now we know what's happening to all the masses of superheroes getting killed off. They're being turned into meat puppets by bored bureaucrats.
<t> Ala Kill Bill, except less often for sex.
<k> (They certainly regretted inventing the Wheel O' Corpses that day)

<j> I probably shouldn't facepalm at Piper telling Boomer that the Rogues "won't fill that empty hole".
