04:36 pm [arbre_rieur] [Link]	The man the power ring picked before Hal We all know that Hal Jordan was chosen to become Green Lantern because the power ring found him to be most worthy of all the inhabitants of Earth. In this story from Action Comics Weekly, however, we meet the other ten individuals who the ring considered before settling on Jordan, including the one who was deemed worthier than Jordan and chosen ahead of him. (Guy Gardner and John Stewart were two of ten, obviously.) ( There are some familiar faces. ) Tags: char: green lantern/hal jordan, creator: carmine infantino, creator: curt swan, creator: elliot s! maggin, creator: gil kane, creator: jim aparo, creator: jim mooney, creator: steve ditko, title: action comics weekly (22 comments \| Leave a comment)

05:53 pm [runespoor7] [Link]	Women in Dumpsters: Batman and Jason as Robin Batman #414, #421, #422; 7 scans from each issue, plus the cover. These three issues form a bigger story arc. The basic plot is such: there's been a series of killings of young women in Gotham, and Batman is searching the murderer. There are a few headdesky plot points, but don't let that drive you away: it's a very good story. #422 especially is wonderfully constructed, but the rest is nonetheless interesting on its own. I'm posting it because it's an arc than ran during Jason's period as Robin, and though Jason only appears in #422, the story deals with some themes that are inherently linked to his character. Emotional involvement, anger issues, the difference between what is “just” and what is legal, attitude toward women-as-victims, all of which are expanded upon. My comments regarding how the action relates to Jason's character are in italics. Batman #422 is Jason's last appearance before Garzonas, in Batman #424.
