11:05 pm [dr_hermes] [Link]	Katar and Shayera know ALL your dirty little secrets Some bits from 1961 and 1962 issues of THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD. Script by Gardner Fox, art by Joe Kubert. One of the most off-beat but underused aspects of the Silver Age Hawkman strip was that Katar and Shayera Hol had prepped for their arrival by using a device called an Absorbascon to transmit all memories and knowledge from the brains of Earth people. (There has to be a limit to the depth and type of information fed into the Hols' brains, I think. Probably they started with intake of language, geography, history, that sort of thing and cut off before they started getting into what size shoes Trotsky wore or how to make haggis. But you never know. The text says "everything" and perhaps the information was stored in compressed form in their brains, sort of like cerebral MP3s.)It was a slightly eerie touch that made our Hawks seem "other," not just everyday humans in costumes. They would sometimes sit in the dark and concentrate to try to bring out just the bit of knowledge they needed. One limitation was that (as I recall) they only did this Absorbascon process once. So if a Mad Scientist invented a reverse evolution ray while the Hols were here, they wouldn't have any information on it. Whether they would know about Green Lantern's weakness or Alfred's collection of antique keys is debatable. On the other hand, they would be great to have around when trying to do the SUNDAY TIMES crossword. ( Read more... ) This last page doesn't relate to the Absorbascon, but I wanted to show off some Joe Kubert art. He often drew Hawkman and Hawkgirl at night, making them seem more mysterious and even ominous. Kubert also drew regular human bodies, something of a lost art. Shayera is not Jenna Jameson, Katar is not Lou Ferrigno. They're normal people in good athletic shape and that's enough.

07:25 pm [porringer] [Link]	Blue Beetle - The Brave and the Bold 3 Last weekend I visited my first ever comics fair. I'd visited my friendly local comic shop to buy All-Star Superman, and the friendly person at the till asked how I was getting on with Blue Beetle (since I bought 4 trades from them). I mentioned that I had the 4 trades, and some later issues, but was missing some in the middle, so was waiting for the trades. "Have you tried the comics fair?" The comics fair? Why, there's one on today, they might have the issues. What followed was less scary than I thought, but still rather disconcerting. If only because it wasn't as overwhelming as I thought, and the stallholders were so helpful. Nobody had any of the issues I was looking for :( but they did pull up issue 3 of The Brave and the Bold (featuring Blue Beetle), which reminded me why I like Blue Beetle. ( 4 pages-worth of images, illustrating the awesome ) Tags: char: batman/bruce wayne, char: blue beetle/jaime reyes, creator: george perez, creator: mark waid, publisher: dc comics, title: the brave and the bold (30 comments \| Leave a comment)

08:58 pm [runespoor7] [Link]	Batman would call this Proof #2681 that Gotham Is Too Much For Superman To Handle Mark Waid's run on The Brave and the Bold was pretty, pretty crack that gave us some truly unforgettable team-ups. In The Brave and the Bold #16, the team-up is Superman and Catwoman, and it is awesome. The story takes place in the loose continuity of "a few years ago", so you're encouraged not to nitpick at the continuity too much and just relax and enjoy the crack. ( 7 1/3 pages ) Tags: char: catwoman/selina kyle, char: superman/clark kent, creator: mark waid, creator: scott kolins, title: the brave and the bold (79 comments \| Leave a comment)

09:35 am [kagome654] [Link]	Hal, Barry and the Manly Camping Trip I thought that it couldn't hurt to post this story again. There was some discussion going on about good Barry Allen stories and I figured this fit the bill. ( In which Hal screws up and Barry is adorkable ) This is my first time posting here, so apologies if I've majorly screwed anything up.
