Thiiiiiiings.

1. This is what's wrong with comics today, people. Stuff like that gets published and no one bats an eye.

2. Lizardbeth wrote looooooooooong AU BSG Sam Anders fic. The second part of the very very long 'Not All That We Are'-verse has been posted and it is squeeful and full of things like Boomer being Awesome instead of shagging Cavil.

3. Um. So. Have an appointment with the oral surgeon on Friday to find out what they think's up with my tooth. Meanwhile, am on drugs. Ow.

4. Ooh. shiny

Yes, apparently. And 53-issues strong, so far.

That gives me vague hope.

I like where the reviewer advises the reader to take note of the chick with the giant blood stain on her crotch, as if the reader could possibly have been distracted by something else.

It's Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose...who's even counting any more?

I have to say that I was more surprised that Jim Balent was not familiar with the basic principles of reconstructive genital surgery (HINT: it doesn't involve transplants) than the haunted vagina itself. It seems like something he'd find intensely interesting.

I'm just thankful I'd never heard of it before now.

Bahaha! Someone on my flist had a "You have to get out of here! Your vagina is haunted!" icon earlier today, and now I understand it.

...I mean, as much as one can understand that.

I feel like we should run a prompt battle, with that as the theme or something. There must be some way to use it legitimately....

My brain needle is still skipping on "...main character was bound and literally milked so that a bad guy could steal her witchity power and eat it on toast"

Oh. That's what Jim Balent is doing these days. Color me surprised.

o.O Eeeeeeeeeeeeeew.

Luckily, our comics guy is mostly like, "...you're weird, but amusing" and never tries to suggest anything.

It saddens me how often bad, tasteless porn is sold as edgy, progressive and groundbreaking (yes, Laurell K. Hamilton, I'm looking at you). This is so ridiculous it'd be funny if it wasn't so disgusting.
I'm however not surprised by 53 issues - think about the sales of John Ringo's Paladin of Shadow's series (OH JOHN RINGO NO (http://hradzka.livejournal.com/194753.html)), LKH and all the rape fic you've ever read - someone makes all that popular.
I also, unfortunately, think "You have to get out of here. Your vagina is haunted." is going to go the "All your base are belong to us" way and be quoted out of context forever.

This, yes. Sigh.

If only more intelligent things would get sold.

I know. And I figured you were busy. I was just sort of, um, quietly curious.
