Huntress nostalgia!

Since I was a big fan of the Helena Bertinelli Huntress, I was very dismayed when DC eliminated her with the new-52 reboot. But I recently learned that she has been a recurring character in the show Arrow on the CW. So far she's appeared in four episodes: 1x07, 1x08, 1x17, and 2x17, all four of which I've now watched. I have to say, I was quite pleased with her portrayal. They actually managed to make her more ruthless than in the comics, which is a big plus in my book. Sadly, 2x17, entitled "Birds of Prey," ended in a way that will make it difficult for the show to bring her back anytime in the near future, but it didn't preclude an eventual return, so I'm pretty happy. Anyway, in honor of this, I decided to post a few pages from Birds of Prey: Blood and Circuits.

Teen Titans #28-29 - Back to the Future

Hi ho, gang! Yes, i'm still alive. I got ill in February and was either in hospital or recovering and not allowed to drive til recently, and so missed the last couple issues of Teen Titans. But! Now I have both the ones I missed and the latest in hand! So I figure i'll do one post on the back issues and a separate post for the new. I have here six pages each from Teen Titans #28 and #29 - sounds like a lot, but there's at least one double-page splash from each ish.
You'll recall that when we left our merry band, the remaining Titans had joined Kid Flash and Solstice in the 31st century, where Bart was apprehended and put on trial. Being in the future enabled Bart to break through his Echo-created "witness protection" personality and become the evil revolutionary Bar Torr again, and submitting to the trial was part of his scheme - with all his world's power brokers gathered to watch him hang, his forces were able to strike at all of them at once, to the Titans' dismay.
( We now join the battle already in progress )
Stay tuned, gentle readers! Same Titan time, same Titan channel!

Teen Titans #30 - the center cannot hold

Time now for the latest issue of Teen Titans. You'll recall that the team 'ported back to the 21st century to find Bunker and Beast Boy fighting for their lives on Tim's yacht, which is apparently the worst-guarded secret headquarters ever.
( It's kind of a long story. )
...so, all that happened. *shrug* Reboot, anyone?

New Adam Strange

Justice League United 0 came out today, reintroducing Adam Strange to the nuDC universe (and also introducing Equinox, but her pages are pretty boring and don't tell us anything about her character yet).
