Secret Six Preview
The Newsarama has the preview for Secret Six #13. JOY!!!!

Exquisite panel preview of humor and horror behind the cut.

Ok, talk about going back and taking a classic monster and bringing him into the fold. Wow.
And since Diana's recent adventures included Beowulf, then having Grendel appear is not that inconceivable. The way Grendel talks, like you kind of understand what he is saying/implying and yet your mind can't graps in what horrible ways the beast is communicating his message... yeah, you got this beast right, Gail. It' like looking in at Hannibal Lecter, with his horrible persona made flesh.

Grendel is CREEPY.

I am in love with Jeanette, and Ragdoll as always steals the show.

Floyd is one thing, except for his kid he could care less about who he kills, (and Ragdoll is nuts) but Thomas really has hit the top of his self-loathing hasn't he? I don't think he was like this even in his Fat Elvis Green Arrow appearance. If Catman plays a part in the death of Wonder Woman (we know she'll be OK but still...), that's it and he MUST know it. If he's willing to kill Scandal and the others, that's it and he MUST know it. No chance with Huntress, no chance for respect by others (villains or heroes), no chance for another chance. I know Gail has done her research since Catman has returned mostly to his 1960s or 1970s self but this is a bit beyond that (unless he's got something planned in which case I reserve the right to say nevermind).

Oh and I really like how GS has used DCU non-Amazonian mythos and gods here and in WW. I wonder when she's going to get to Asgard.
