Was the comic any good?

I don't know, I'm trade waiting this one. Harleen was great though.

I wanna write a sample for Shariff but I have to reread his original issues. I wanna do for him what Ridley did for Tim Fox.

I believe that the existing minority characters should have a bigger presence in the YA sphere. Representation is something I needed more as a 10-15 year old than as a 30 year old. I like Kamala Khan but she debuted 10 years too late for me personally.

It's not a foolproof method but it's worth a shot.

Doing a Ridley-Tim Fox for Sharif would be brilliant!

And for the record, we're never too old to want, need or appreciate proper representation in the things we partake in. In fact, that is why a lot of people come to realize the importance of having proper representation once they've gotten older, wiser, and generally learned.

Cbr.com stated Issue 8 was the last issue.

I just meant representation takes on a different meaning the older you get. What I look for in a story now is different than I was 10 or 15.

Yeah, might gamble and buy a copy when the trade comes out. Liked the author on the YA stuff and the story sounds interesting.

Thought that was a prose novel. Or was it both?

No, it was a comic book. Really, really good.

Will have to check the library then.

Has anyone read Victor and Nora: A Gotham Love Story? Somehow I missed this. It's written and drawn by the same people who did Under the Moon: A Catwoman Tale, so it has my interest. A romance origin story for the teen who'll become Mr. Freeze is a good hook.

I read it and I honestly didn't care for it that much. Interesting idea, but it lacked something. Props to the creative team making Nora a character and not just a plot device, though.

How would you compare it to Under the Moon? Better, worse, about the same?

I enjoyed it. Not my favorite, but I think it gets the point relatively across.

That one's still on my reading list, so I can't say. Suffice to say that with the other YA books I've read, even ones that didn't click with me personally, I could appreciate the craftsmanship of, but not Victor and Nora, for some reason.

Suicide Squad: Get Joker!

More interested in Batman Reptilian, but this looks fun. Hope they get to kill Joker.

Wait, is that the Future's End incarnation of Plastique seen in one of the cells?

Looks like it.

[WebLurker]

Looks like it.

Didn't read that (although the premise sounded interesting). Did they ever explain how that Plastique related to the mainstream one?
