Nov. 12th, 2009 04:34 pmI know this image is meant to be all scary and whatnot, but this is scans_daily, where we find the "so wrong" in everything. Sure enough, Blackest Night offers some unwanted innuendo.
IGN has the previews.
One stuck out in particular.

ETA: I just realized part of this has already been posted.
You can read it here, where people already answered many questions that came up. I didn't think there was a chance someone had posted it already...that'll teach me to assume.
So I was reading some posts about Batman and Catwoman here, which reminded me how much I like Selina. Then I found
espanolbot 's posts on Ed Brubaker's Catwoman, which reminded me how awesome they were. Anyway, I don't have more Catwoman, but I do have this short bit from The Comics Journal #263 that I think everyone will appreciate.
( Holly in the bath and Selina changing outfits! )

Frank Miller Holy Terror parody
Nov. 12th, 2009 09:13 pmIn a way, Frank Miller has become a parody of himself so the label is almost superfluous.
Anyway, to you lucky few who have never heard of it, some years back Miller outlined his idea for a propaganda comic which was essentially Batman vs. Osama bin Laden, Holy Terror, Batman!. Yes, take a moment to goggle. You see what I meant about self-parody? It's not even fish in a barrel territory, it's more like the fish gutted itself, rolled around in lemon juice and butter then flopped into the frying pan. But dear god, when a guy sets himself up like this he's just begging the Internet to take a whack. I was going to save this parody for the new digs but I thought I'd say goodbye to 2.0 with my first ever post.

ROAR OF AGES, by Junji Ito
Nov. 12th, 2009 11:16 pm
The third story from the VOICES IN THE DARK anthology. Click the tag for more.
Two friends in the woods uncover the truth behind a mysterious flood.
Another safe for work story from Ito. Is the man losing his touch?!
Given that he turns that pretty dull premise into an interesting tale by the end, I would say no. Read on to see how he does it, and for some pretty gnarly depictions of floods.
