There's a New Frontier trailer posted at dvd.ign.com. Think it's new because it has today's date. I'm hope this hasn't been already posted. I looked around the forum and didn't see it, but I can't always be sure! Check it out--it looks amazing.

Based on similar observations about Batman, I've concluded that he can only be considered a metahuman as well. He's performed super-human feats of strength and survived physical trauma beyond the limits of what his top-athlete status could allow. Not to mention that he can disappear and move...

The review manages to take the impact out of just as many plot points and jokes as the trailer did. This review does little to obfuscate what it talks about and maybe ought to be tagged with some spoiler alerts on the frontpage.

Great interview questions. I can't stand this guy's pompous, self-absorbed attitude. He talks as though he wrote, produced, and inked the whole show himself. And best I can tell, it doesn't really hold up--the writing relies heavily on internal monologue's to describe the action and the...

“I am vengeance… I am the night… I am Batman.” It's complicated than one line, but vengeance must certainly be a central feature of whatever motivations drive the character. There are moments where justice, love, friendship, duty, etc are more prominent but a darkside for Batman is well...

Thanks to Star Wars being cribbed from dozens of other sources, I can see how that works.

I am abundantly happy with my 26" 720p LCD and my standard DVDs. I'd like 1080p eventually, but the cost-benefit of more expensive TV, player, and discs is not even close for me to think about it. DVD is in its stride and will be for years more. I buy 90% (or more) boxsets and the new formats...

I'll go with Jack Napier. There's plenty of hints/evidence/whatever in the DCAU that this is it. Plus, it being a play on words makes plenty of sense with the other Batman villians (e.g. E. Nygma, Harleen Quinzell, etc).

Muppet Babies was the beginning, but I'd suspect its influence in this direction died out in the mid-nineties when cartoons were either Japanese animation or smarmy, ugly, hip, Nicktoons-esque, I'm-smarter-than-my-dumb-parents refuse. This new wave is surprising because I didn't think Baby...

For what it's worth, on some of the very earliest packages Wingnut and Screwloose were listed on the back of the box in the purple, villians section. I remember it clearly. It was almost immedately changed on later figures. Also, the neutrinos sucked.

BTAS was naturalist, noir, pulp melodrama calling upon sci-fi and horror elements to round it out. TNBA had modern story-telling that was more edgy and less like a radio play. It's harder for me to pin down a good description of TNBA but it eschewed some of the warmth and adventure...

I'm for mixing it up. Even by the end of JLU, which I would have liked another season of, I was ready for something different. This new line of announcements is nice because I trust Bruce Timm AND we're getting something different. There's more than one person on Earth who can do a really...

I used a newly sharp F pencil. Actually, looking at this a day later is disappointing. It was a quick sketch so it's not supposed to be fantastic but it doesn't really do anything for me.

Wow, I haven't posted here for a long time! This is Rachel from Advance Wars DS. Kinda did it on a challenge. My scanner doesn't work with x64 Windows so I used my camera. Comments welcome!

Ooh, I'd love for Supes to throw something about Bruce's parents back at him! (Batman, at his most brooding, can be kind of a whiner about that whole tragedy deal). They'd probably come to fists if he had. Greasy smear line also rubs me the wrong way. Bloody smear woulda done it for me...
