[An Amazing Analysis of the Role of the Parent-Child Relationship in Superhero Comics and How Fandom Still Wants It, Complete with an Adorable Picture of Catwoman Hugging Baby!Terry]

...

If only it were that easy.

(This is just a reminder of what I want to write eventually. Not tonight, though. In a bad mood.)

Um ... um ... I probably need some real content. Um ...

Jesus Christ, didn't American Idol suck? Like, really, really suck? Like those shit renditions of "Viva La Vida" and "If You Could Only See" are going to haunt me for days bad. I usually never watch it but my Mom had it on and pee-yew. Seriously.

Okay, okay, that's lame.

Um, I finished my copy of Comic Foundry. Good times. It's rare I read a magazine from cover-to-cover but ...

Aw, forget it. I'll try again tomorrow.

Aw man, just thinking about that pic of Catwoman holding baby Terry makes me dissolve into a puddle of goo.

Dude, I know. There were people who said they CRIED over that picture. CRIED. It really makes me doubt Quesada's "Oh, if Spider-Man had a kid I never would have read the books" philosophy. But all my thoughts on this DO require a larger post.

AI was horrendous. I stopped watching after Nick Mitchell but it was just gawd-awful.

I liked watching it with my brother who is VERY SERIOUS METAL MUSICIAN because he just rips on everybody. Was Nick Mitchell the comedy artist? I thought his rendition would have been great for, like, a drag revue. (And I sort of mean that as a compliment. It was funny. It would have been funnier if he was in sequined dress and a crazy hat.)

yeah, nick was the comedian. i thought he was pretty funny but he got farther in the show than he had any right to! :-)

I remember reading the first issue of Comic Foundry... those guys were so awesome that they SENT me the first issue, for free, and I was hooked. They had cool geek stuff, informative articles, and few to little ads.

I'm going to miss them.

And yeah, I miss Dinah as a mom. I don't see why Sin had to be taken away because OLLIE was doing it for her own good, while Batman and Superman got to be dads for MUCH longer.

Grrr... it sucks. I want a supermom.

Both Marvel and DC seem to solve their "problems" in the worst possible way. I think Sin's just one example.
