Fair, I s'pose, but "aircon" is British and I'm assuming Morrison pulled it from his own vocabulary.

(I once read a British tabloid "interview" claiming to be with that guy Britney Spears married and immediately divorced.  It was written by someone who did not seem to know that people from Louisiana do not typically use the words "mum" and "gobsmacked".)

Now I'm picturing fake tabloid interviews with the Queen of England where she's like, totally, you know, yeah.

More importantly, the final episode of The Brave and the Bold is a landmark. Save it for the saddest of days.

Real Batsuit adapted from Arkham City model.

Best live-action Batsuit since Adam West's.

Sims has a great little moment-by-moment analysis of the Batman: TAS intro.  It's incisive: the thing is fucking poetry in motion; it's a complete story with a beginning, middle, and end that tells you absolutely everything you need to know about Batman in under a minute.

Also, the stills are great.

(ALSO: Because this is a discussion of cartoon intros, there is of course a guy in the comments section attributing the Thundercats theme song to James Lipton.  Fuck you, IMDB.)

There's a lot to love in that thing, but damn 'Dem Poison Ivy Hips. That's straight up something I want all future renditions of her to have.

Also Captain Haddock.

Les McClane is indeed awesome. Aside from being the artist on the Tick, he also does the webcomic Jonny Crossbones (which is kind of weird to read sometimes, as parts of the archives drop in and out). He's also illustrating the webcomic Tune, written by Derek Kirk Kim. Seriously a great artist, and I'd love to see him get his own Batman title in that style. Probably the only artist I've seen who can pull off the "This is a faded retro comic" look without making it look ridiculous.

He basically made that Mayhem at the Mansion poster for fun, and it's better than most of the stable artists DC has on hand. Did you notice how the entire poster makes the Batman symbol? So good.

Not in the least! Reek was probably the wrong word to use.

That level of (relatively harmless) professional devotion is actually kind of touching in a way that no slavish fan-copy crud could ever be.

He also gives broccoli to kids on Halloween, which kinda cancels out.
