HaHa! I skipped straight to the cookie.

Oh, Batfatty! You always take the sugary snacks without eating your healthy dinner. Whatever are we going to do with you?

I have to admit that I do have two bobbleheads: Archie and Jughead. I was at a fair-sized con a while back and these two items were the only things I picked up besides that old Byrne "Here's What Really Happened Up On Wundagore Mountain" Avengers trade paperback and a signed print from STERANKO. I think I felt I'd not lived up to my nerdly obligations after deciding to not pick up a page of Gene Ha's issue of Global Frequency.

Mock it if you want, but Rhoda Wilcox's "Why Buffy Matters" is an an incredible piece of criticism from the co-editor of Slayage, the Online Journal of Buffy Studies. It's not some unofficial guide and Wilcox is a big name in television studies.

Okay, I have a bobblehead of Hermey the Dentist from the Rudolph cartoons. But he's inspirational, dammit!

Anyway, just wanted to say that I misread a line as "Transformers: The Ghost of Sarcasm - Previews Exclusive Statue" and my mind burbled over with too many possibilities.

Mike - although I have my own theory on Infinite Crisis, I have to give yours a definite

Especially since one of the current buzzes is the Inferior Five "homage" in Villains United # 4.

Remember the good old days, when crossovers were a new idea?

That TOMB RAIDER book has a splash page which Jusko signed and dated in the year 2000. The pictures of his models in the back have dates of 2000 on them, as well.

I admit it -- I bought it. I wanted to see Jusko's panel to panel work.

If you don't think a man can get laid with a Cami door poster up in his dormroom, you have seriously underestimated the legions of Fangirls out there.

Oh, and I just have to do this... I'm sorry:


GREAT STARSCREAM'S GHOST!

BeaucoupKevin - It's not like I can take the moral high ground here, since you all know I'd totally be first in line for a Swamp Thing bobblehead.

Joe G. - Not really mocking, so much as being amused by the idea of a "foremost authority on Buffy." Well, I suppose someone has to be!

Augie - Only since 2000? It feels like people have been asking me for this comic for, like, a decade or more. Sheesh.

Mojo - No, I sure don't. If you own this poster, you gotta turn in your sex license.

If you pursue your social life on the basis of the theory that fangirls are just girls who miraculously don't mind social retardation, Mojo, you're going to find yourself striking out a lot.

Regarding the Jusko Tomb Raider project...I've seen the pages. It will be worth the wait.

given DC's history and recent storylines, I would have thought that the latest behind it all villian would be the golden age Lois Lane, rather than her husband. Maybe she destroys the DC universe to give the retired superman something to do instead of hanging around her all the time.

I doubt they'd use superman as a villian... they'll probably just drudge up some old no-name villian from back in the day that we all forgot about and use some random "hero" that'll soon be the star of a new relaunched title in the wake of the events.
at least that's what marvel would do.. dc? well maybe not so much

The mystery villain is undoubtedly Vartox, trying to get back to Lana now that she and Pete Ross have broken up.

There is a statue of the *ghost* of *Starscream*?

How is that not the greatest thing ever?
