    I'm kind of surprised they haven't shown up in the main DCU yet. Wallace seems already forgotten about.

    Glaad to see DC getting praise (sorry, I couldn't resist). DC's output aimed a today's younger audience is a lot of their best and most consistent content.

    Taking existing tropes and making them socially relevant to a young and modern audience is the foundation Marvel was built on way back in the 60's, along with more mature, current storytelling techniques. It's about time DC and Marvel started once again aiming for a new audience rather than 30+ year olds who have been reading forever (that's not a jab, I am that 30+ forever reader!).

    Plus, I have loved seeing adult men completely melt down over "I Am Not Starfire." It's hilarious to see.

    Crush & Lobo was a blast, I really hope we get a sequel.
    "Has Sariel summoned you here, Azrael? Have you come to witness the miracle of your brethren arriving on Earth?"

    "I WILL MIX THE ASHES OF YOUR BONES WITH SALT AND USE THEM TO ENSURE THE EARTH THE TEMPLARS TILLED NEVER BEARS FRUIT AGAIN!"

    "*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."

    Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

    I'll have to check out "The Dreaming: Waking Hours" one of these days.

    A shame that "Poison Ivy: Thorns" didn't get nominated. It's so good.

    I found it more sad and disgusting, but I'm trying to take these things less seriously.
