Date: 2009-06-15 04:24 pm (UTC)Now that I think about it, I demand the cover be changed to show that.

I could swear the artists used the same reference pictures Greg Land uses...

Date: 2009-06-15 04:38 pm (UTC)Which is so much better than abandoning her daughter? Which is so much better than retiring from being a hero to raise said daughter? There is no GOOD Canary anymore.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-15 04:43 pm (UTC)I'd say retiring to become a mother isn't necessarily a bad thing. Dinah doesn't want to make orphans.

Random Thoughts on Solicits...
Date: 2009-06-15 04:55 pm (UTC)They're aren't even trying to make the PG solicits not sound like cheesecake anymore, are they? (Though the cover is pretty)
Does that mean Achilles as in the one from The Illiad? Because that could actually be pretty freaking cool. He couls get resurrected, discover it's 2000 years later, and be all PTSD about all his friends and family being looooong gone. If Gail does that, it could be really neat. Plus, it could be something that he could be upset about to cause conflict, and Diana's lasso's really handy for clearing that kind of thing up. It could be a cool little bit of character play, there.

Date: 2009-06-15 04:56 pm (UTC)And I'm saying you can't decline beyond Absolute Suck (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero). I wouldn't blink an eye if some writer had Dinah making out with Lex Luthor as she dug her boot heel into Batman's crotch at this point. At this point, as far I can tell, she's pretty much at the same level of Continuity Flail (as my friends call it) that she was in the 80's: bad ass, PMS'ing kung-fu warrior with a rumbling grumble toward Green Arrow and no direction. Before Dinah can get back to the levels of cool she had when she was part of the BOP dynamic duo, she'd got to shed Green Arrow, get herself a real costume (with pockets), and get attached to a writer who realizes that Black Canary is more Michael Westen than a bipolar Fiona Glenanne. But we'll likely not see that soon, because over at DC, nothing says Black Canary like the hollow shrill of "Girl Power" and fishnets.
...or to put it more succinctly: your ability to distinguish such micrometer difference is suck impresses me.
Re: Random Thoughts on Solicits...
Date: 2009-06-15 04:58 pm (UTC)It's actually a new guy. Zeus made his own group of Olympians (NOT MANAZONS. Jesus, it's like calling Grant Morrison's work "Batman RIPped one"), and Achilles is his champion. Your idea would be cool! Moar Greek enemies for Diana!

Date: 2009-06-15 05:07 pm (UTC)Read more issues of Green Arrow or Batman and The Outsiders. It's a natural way to hone it.

Also, MANAZONS MANAZONS MANAZONS!

Date: 2009-06-15 05:44 pm (UTC)Someone on NSD (I *think* it was JarodRussell) summarized something like "Megan Fox is totally right, Wonder Woman is a lame superhero. Thank goodness she understands the logic behind giant transforming robots."
Re: Random Thoughts on Solicits...
Date: 2009-06-15 05:52 pm (UTC)That quote is awesome, by the way. And I'm cracking up even more because it turns out Bay put in wrecking ball testicles on one of the Decepticons. Stay classy, Hollywood.
