The slow but sure return of Homoerotica Friday

I need to put some real content up here. School is getting me down... I sincerely apologize for not bringing the funny.

But. Homoerotica Fridays. It's hard, putting a good post together. Without a scanner, I've got to sift through the dreck of the Internet, searching for some yummy.

For you, gentle readers. I do it all for you!

This week, I wanted to find something that wasn't ripped off of scans_daily. So, I went hunting on Flickr.

I found this:



...and I couldn't stop laughing. Maybe because it's something I would do myself, if I had access to a digital camera right now.

So there you have it, folks: the adorable Kyle Rayner and his weakness for... um... yellow.

Look! It's a meme!

Which Legionnaire are you?

I'm Andromeda. Which means I grow up to be Power Girl, depending on which version of Kara's origin story you believe.

Which means I get to beat ass and have breasts of epic proportions.

I can live with that.

...And We're back!

Sorry for the extended period of radio silence, kids. My computer crashed, a new semester at MSU started, and I discovered the beautiful, addictive joy that is World of Warcraft.

I've been wanting to post something ever since I read Batman #644, something to add my voice to the echoes of rage over the man known in some circles as WTFingham and Willinghamfucktard. I had composed at least six versions of a good rant, but I couldn't bring myself to bring any of them to a satisfying conclusion. It just wasn't worth the effort.

So I took a long look at my pull list, and a surprisingly large number of them filled me with either depression (in the case of Batman) or apathy (all of the Infinite Crisis miniseries, with the exception of Villains United.)

So I quietly dropped them. No fanfare, no ranting, just the simple declaration: I would rather special order the 2nd or 3rd print of a really good comic than eagerly buy the 1st edition of one that sucks.

I'm totally with Damon here: the Rann/Thanagar war is a perfect example of a comic trying to do way too damn much all at once. (Long-time readers will note I predicted R/T's suckitude back in June.) I can only help that Dave Gibbons will do better when he can focus solely on Green Lanterns.

Life's too short to read shitty comics. And I don't have the bank to spend on substandard books, either, what with my newfound Warcraft addiction and everything.

So. A return to the funny! A return to Homoerotica Fridays!

A return to being happy about good comics, for the love of God!
