Grant Morrison made me cry.


"Yeah, see, Superman sees the best in us, including Luthor. And that’s why he’s sad or confused sometimes, because he also sees us messing up, being angry and jealous and self-destructive. He sees the best, he thinks human beings are amazing, and he wants us all to rise up to his level, become superhuman and go off into space or whatever, but his ideals are constantly running up against basic human problems and inadequacies, including his own.

And I think that’s what makes him great. He just keeps tirelessly trying to make things better, to be a role model for everyone. People take him for granted – he’s always dealing with characters who think he’s an idiot, or irrelevant or who just don’t like his plain morality and can’t see that he’s just a genuinely good guy slightly hampered by a fear of forcing his ideas on people

Wherein I continue my DC love..


"That’s the greatest thing about the DC Universe – the heroes are heroes. They’re people to aspire to. They are not perfect. They’re like people we know. People we like. They’re people who struggle, but they carry on. Just like all of us. They work together and help each other.
I like that the evil in the DC Universe gets really evil – really dark and twisted – but the heroes break through it, and rise to the challenge. They might not win every time, which is great for stories, but they persevere.
That’s something that appeals to me much more than a universe where everything is gray." - Geoff Johns (again)

You said it, Geoff.

Also, JAMES ROBINSON has just been named the new writer of Superman.

I believe in DC Comics.


"I believe in DC Comics. I believe in the characters and have since I first discovered this wonderful universe. I believe in where we’re going and what we’re fighting for. You know, we can’t take our readers for granted. We screw up, we lose. We gotta learn from our mistakes and the mistakes others make. We gotta fight hard to create better books every month that are worth your time." - Geoff Johns, via Newsarama

With all sincerity..

Me : At the 2:50 mark on that song it becomes the greatest thing ever.

Maggie : It's so triumphant.

Me : The harmony at the 3:10 mark is enough to make rainbows explode.

Maggie : Hahahaha. You should write music reviews. Get a job at The Flyer or something on the side.

Me : Haha. Yeah, where I just review the Flash Gordon soundtrack every week.

I know you, but you don't know me.

I like making up quotes that don't make any sense.
