Gone Fishin'

Hey dudes! Tomorrow I leave for London for an internetless few days to see, among other things, Batman Live, insane-looking Batman-themed stage show. If I don't come back, know I died happy. Or at least confused!

Also I have gotten a horrible, hideous cold RIGHT before it's time to leave (hopefully I will feel better when I wake up tomorrow...) and have spent the better part of the day at my shoddy job for nine hours, with said cold, and then trying to pack and tidy up the house an stuff before we leave.

Point being, there are like five posts on my flist I need to reply to, so if yours is one of them, *GLOMP* and sorry for that not happening right now!

I will leave you all with the knowledge that (a) I am actually VIDDING A THING right now that has nothing to do with comics (but may also be part of a bigger project and thus take a while to release; kind of like the collab I've also been working on and off on - I'm doing a fair amount of vidding! Just not the kind I kind show people yet. GRR), but (b) I'm going to expose you to Comics anyway:

Behold! The trailer for DC's New 52 thingy!



Everyone under the sun seems to think this is terrible. I, on the other hand, am apparently enormously contrary and think it's GREAT. But possibly you should all be aware that I also unironically love Meat Loaf and am about to go see a stage show that will involve a man dressed as Batman prancing around with like, fireworks and shit.

Yay, vidding! Boo, cold!

Have fun in London. :-)

Thank you! I had a great time, although I was pretty sick the whole time. I'm finally feeling better now I'm home again. *facepalm*

London is rough. I got sick there once myself and you were sick before you went. Glad you are better, though!

What is up with all these summer colds me and my friends are having? This is supposed to be fun weather!

*shakes fist at universe*

Weirdly, this has done the most to make me actually excited about any of it than anything else has done.

I know, what the hell, it's a crazy motion comic to cheesy power chords! Yet somehow it's kind of awesome.

In less awesome news, that conversation we were having about the Huntress/Question roadtrip book that will now never happen - found out it was because Huntress was unavailable not Question which you know, it's still nice to know that people were pitching for Renee, but it's not cus someone else is already doing something with her. Just figured since I cruelly put the notion in your head, I oughta let you know the latest info. I STILL HOLD OUT HOPE SHE'S SHOW IN BATWOMAN!

In more awesome news, in London, I FOUND A SHOP THAT SOLD ME A BIG BARDA T-SHIRT. BIG BARDA. ON A T-SHIRT. FOR REAL.

Enjoy your trip to London! I think the Batman show sounds awesome.

Thanks, I had a great time! The Batman stage show was pretty awesome actually. When he finally said, "I'm Batman!" the entire auditorium started roaring with applause and then laughing!

I'm glad you had fun and made it back! And hopefully you're recovered now too.

and am about to go see a stage show that will involve a man dressed as Batman prancing around with like, fireworks and shit.

Bwah. I would see this in a flat second. I spent most of that preview just happy I've read enough comics now to recognize most of the characters and unashamedly flapping my hands with glee when Wonder Woman showed up. Though, dude, that is a young looking Superman and I'm already having trouble tracking origin stories and continuity. Damn you, relauch! :)
