Dudes in Distress Week - Oh come on, you MUST have known I'd be doing something like this (Pt1)

icon_ukAs the sun sets (or rises depending on time difference) on scans_daily's "Dude in Distress Week" (and thank you to the mods for it and to everyone who contributed such great issues), I thought I'd make a couple of posts featuring my favourites... First post will be some commissions, the second post will be some classic moments from the past, and the third will be my nomination for perfect "Dude in Distress" issue. And yes, I should probably apologise in advance for the sheer Robin-centricity of them, but frankly you should know me better by now! :D If cute guys in pixie boots aren't you're thing, please feel free to skip them all.

icon_ukBy way of Project Rooftop;
A few years ago current Wonder Woman artist Cliff Chiang put forward a notion for a story featuring Japanese characters who would be inspired by the JLA but filtered through their own culture of anime, toku and kaiju...
( I want to hear their theme song NOW!!! )

icon_ukAs the comics world mourns the passing of a legend, let's look back at Batman #1, and the debut of the character Mr Jerry Robinson will forever be connected with. A character with one of the most eponymous calling cards of all time.

starwolf_oakleyI've said on this board I don't like it when superhero comics (and other forms of pop culture) make it look like mental illness is some sort of moral failing.
Three actual psychiatrists have taken issue (pun intended) with DC Comics and their description of the mentally ill, especially Batman's rogues gallery. It was originally in the New York Times.
Newsarama covered it as well.
More and four pages from THE KILLING JOKE after the cut.

A warning concerning Batman: Arkham City
Oct. 16th, 2011 10:28 pmcyberghostfaceSomehow an early copy was leaked and there are MAJOR SPOILERS floating around the internet. The entire ending is already on YouTube. Some plot twists in particular I have no doubt that a lot of people will be talking about in the next couple of days. So tread very, very carefully.
For legality, from Batman #13...

Now that is some fine family entertainment: the Riddler and the Joker about to kill a trussed-up Robin in a giant cheese press, all in front of a live audience.
At Sea World.

icon_ukI can't decide on whether to call this one
"Where does he get those Wonderful
or "Don't do that! You won't be 'Mint on Card'!"
( And of course, the Joker would INSIST on the rarest figures! )
