Untold Tales of Blackest Night

Than it shows them in battle, and Donna is talking about her death and stuff like that.

"Today my idol, boyfriend, and mentor became zombies. FML." Also, listen I like when Donna's hair is sparkly as much as the next person, but it really shouldn't be sparkling anymore. Just saying.

Anyway there were a few other stories, and Buddy Baker creeping me the hell out. But yeah...

Also, EW @ the Buddy story and what it did to Starfire. Eff that entire storyline and eff super powered women in comics constantly being held down in sexually compromising positions while men talk about wanting to "do stuff" to them.

And TOTALLY DISAGREE >[ DONNA'S HAIR SHOULD SPARKLE FOREVER. Why give her that ugly-ass sparkle suit if she's not going to SPARKLE with it? When she's got that celestial, otherworldly appearance where she's just SHINING then it makes sense for her to be wearing something that looks so ... well, tacky. But when her hair is just normal then it just looks like she's not even starfield-y, and is, in fact, just wearing a tacky outfit with sequins.

He needs to forever and always stay away from Kory now. Seriously...

Listen I LIKE the sparkly hair, I do. But it's not supposed to be sparkly anymore that's all I'm saying. I mean how would she has sparkly hair, she had it when she was a goddess, ok, but now? I guess it could have just never went away, or she has super special shampoo or something... And anyway, people make the jokes about her looking like she has bad dandruff, which granted it doesn't look like that Here, but still... D:

I figured it's just that artists started inconsistently drawing it (she had sparkly hair all up to the Infinite Crisis tie ins, and a bit after (like in Countdown), but then in her own series in the Titans didn't ... ). I like to think of it as, yes, sparkly dandruff. B( But I suppose I just like the idea of Donna being more... idk, NOT-MORTAL. She's had so many retcons that take away her soul's mortality and it was a good idea to stick with her being some multiverse transformer bot combination but IDK, they have not mentioned her goddess stint at all outside of the Terrible Return of Donna Troy (pretty but terrible) so is that even canon anymore? GOD IT SUCKS BEING A DONNA FAN WHY DO WE DO THIS TO OURSELVES

xD Sparkly dandruff, I don't know why that's so funny to me but I'm picturing all these things that happen with dandruff, but with sparkles. That'd actually be awesome it's like she sheds sparkles....

Wait that's not canon anymore? Or has it just not been mentioned ever? I mean she has a lot of pasts they can't mention everything... Aw. I don't know I guess I'm actually not really that bothered by that. Everything changes so much with her I can't ever keep up -_- Well I do this to myself because I'm a horrible person and I like to punish myself in creative ways, being a Donna (and Cassie) fan is just one of those ways. I don't know about you. :)

I think it's canon? It just hasn't been mentioned. the return of donna troy has been, without a doubt, the most confusing Donna Troy story ever. The other ones were never very confusing in isolated context, and were only confusing when you tried to streamline it with her other stories. But that story altogether was just freakin' weird and overly complicated. But it was so so pretty. And I liked the idea of tying her back to the Titans of Myth!!! I wish Coeus, her husband, showed up randomly and tried to court her again. "DONNA BABY I MISSED OUR TIME TOGETHER WHEN YOU WERE BRAINWASHED, PLEASE COME BACK TO ME"

Donna: /friendzones

	I think I just consider everything canon until it's specifically stated that it's not, and this hardly happens so you can imagine how that goes in my own head. Donna's friendzone has to be like the most packed friendzone ever, with men. She doesn't friendzone the ladies. :] (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Just hope JMS's changes to the timeline over in WW aren't permanent, because if they are... We're back to "Who's this Donna Troy person?" with "Who's this Cassie person?" on top of it. Then there's Booster and company hunting down Max... "We must stop Max, now that he's back from the dead! Otherwise, he'll... Wait... How'd he die?" (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)
