gargoylekittyPretty sure we're still under the line for this one since it was 40 pages(so 13 can be posted and unless I'm mistaken only 8 have been so far), let me know if I'm wrong on that.
That aside, this story featured some familiar characters of Superman/Batman past...
( Hint: They came in a dru- errr... kryptonite-induced haze )

thanekosThe nature of his series's plotting and its length meant that Jaime Reyes never got much in the way of foes that weren't either tied to the Reach and their machinations, the presence of La Dama, or just existing villains dropping by for one reason or another.
Not that that was a bad thing, though- the Reach had an interesting modus operandi, as did the KDRA and the Black Beetle. La Dama always added an interesting wrinkle whenever she figured into the plot, and the Beetle's battles with free agents like Typhoon or Eclipso made for fun one-off tales.
Still, he didn't really have a distinct villain that didn't come from the Reach (I guess you could count the Hellhounds, but they're idiots with branding issues now, which is more fun) or wasn't La Dama's unique situation until Doctor Polaris showed up.
( Yeah, he was a legacy, an expansion on a throwaway line and character from Meltzer's JLA, but he was still a pretty good arc villain. )

perletwoSo, yeah, I love the OPM bewareofgeek chose for Traci 13, but I have another idea for her. Two and a third pages from Blue Beetle 16.
( They're facing the wrath of God. Literally. )
Excellent issue if you haven't read it BTW. All it needs is moar Brenda to be darn near perfect.

An American Vampire
Jan. 15th, 2010 08:01 pmbwhahahabeckCelebrated short story writer Scott Snyder and artist Rafael Albuquerque will launch a new monthly comic book series from Vertigo in March 2010 with a unique contribution from New York Times bestselling novelist Stephen King. The new ongoing series, AMERICAN VAMPIRE, will introduce readers to a new breed of vampire—a more muscular and vicious species of vampire with distinctly American characteristics. The series’ first story arc, to be told over the course of five issues, will feature two different stories, one written by Snyder, the other by King.

Woo! First post on the new S_D here at IJ! I've finally got a scanner, so expect more comics in the future! Since you guys introduced me to Tim Drake and Spoiler back in the day, I figured the Robin/Spoiler Special from August 2008 would be a good way to start.

ap0cryphal.insanejournal.comso i was checking the tags for Blue Beetle / Jaime Reyes and apparently the issue where we find his "DARKEST FANTASIES of ULTIMATE POWER" hasn't been posted yet, which is a crying shame.
it's a one-shot issue, and i'm posting just the last couple of pages, but you won't be spoiled for anything massive for the series.

End Game: Blue Beetle 22-25
Jul. 6th, 2009 06:08 amjlbarnett.insanejournal.comI'm shocked there's been so little reposted of most recent Blue Beetle series. Jaime and his family are awesome and every guest star comes off looking great.
So I've decided to post some scans of the End Game arc by Rogers. Sailorlibra did post some of BB 25 so I had to adjust my scans accordingly. These new rules are fine for new issues but they can really constrain compilation posts.

Why I Love Guy Gardner
Jul. 4th, 2009 11:43 pmsailorlibra.insanejournal.comThere are some people who prefer Hal Jordan. Others who prefer Kyle Rayner. Yet others with great affection for John Stewart or Ruffles the Rage Kitty. But they're not me. Because I like a different GL.
