I blog at Between Errors and occasionally contribute to Funnybook Babylon. My ever expanding bookshelf is here. I infrequently write about food and take pictures.
That's everything.JLA/Avengers by George Perez, with Colors by Tom Smith, and Scripts by Kurt Busiek.
that is the HouseAd/preview splash from Wizard Magazine at the top, followed by the covers for issue #s 1-4.
if you have never read that book, it was awesome. every single character that had ever been a member of either team up to the time of publication appears in those issues. every single major character has a shining moment that stands out as a badass moment for that character. and it was only four prestige issues. as a fan, I could not have asked for more of anything. it was the perfect crossover book, frankly.
There is a growing movement of people online that are asking Marvel and DC to reprint this book and for the proceeds to go to George and his wife. The book is currently out of print, so I am reblogging this to lend my support.
Please, Marvel and DC powers that be. PLEASE. Reprint this book and have some portion of the proceeds go to George’s medical expenses and so forth. The series is absolutely beloved by fans, and we all know that you guys love this book too. Please reprint.
And for my followers, please reblog and signal boost this. Tweet it. Instagram link it. Let’s make sure the people who can get this book reprinted hear our request.
A very accurate and recent review of this classic comic book
Powers that be: PLEASE reprint this book.
Reprint + give the lion’s share of the proceeds to George Perez (w/o violating any obligations to Kurt Busiek or Tom Smith).

When The Revolution Was Excavated…
The sounds and images in Summer of Soul (…Or When The Revolution Could Not Be Televised) remind me of my childhood. The concerts captured in Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson’s directorial debut took place a decade before I entered the world, but the music – from My Girl and Watermelon Man to Why I Sing the Blues and Everyday People – was the soundtrack of my childhood. The gorgeous grittiness of the…

I get the impression that a lot of people my age know that “the Iraq war was bad!” but they don’t really know much about why it started or what happened once we actually invaded.
If you want to learn more about the war and why it is so dangerous that liberals continually rehabilitated the Bush administration over the last 5 years, I would definitely recommend listening to the 10 part podcast Blowback. It’s extremely well researched and produced and it’ll have you wondering why the sick fucks that got us into that mess aren’t rotting in The Hague.

Women: “Hey, can we hire fewer blatant misogynists to direct and create media? We’d support that.”
Nerdy Male Director: “Well-spoken. Have you considered hiring me, a man who is afraid of women?”
Nerdy Male Director: “She had many masculine traits, like eating 10 hamburgers at once and wrestling Russian mercenaries while never going over 112 pounds. She learned these skills from her many fathers and brothers, never from a male partner or friend, as that may suggest she has some autonomous sexual history. No, men were all too afraid of her, except for me who has mistaken my fem-dom fetish for respect. If I met her in real like I’d hate her for rejecting me without ever speaking to her. Her breasts were D cups.”
Nerdy Male Director: “She was quirky and spontaneous and unfathomable. She was completely disarmed and alluring and so full of sunshine. She wanted to be by my side at all times no matter how much I shrugged her off, pained by my history of real women with adult-minds who wouldn’t put up with my unbearable personality. She was a golden retriever. But a human one, with boobs and legs. I made a dog into a woman and she is my dream girl. I have a degree in literature.”
Nerdy Male Director: “She was a strong, feminist woman who was the ruler of this matriarchal nation. So strong, and so cold, and so emotionless, because i cannot figure out what sort of emotions or feelings a woman in power would have. I hate her because she is the bitter old screen-writing professor who gave me a D- on my manuscript about a sad 20 year old man finding himself through a series of prostitute encounters. She is violently killed on screen, and it is cathartic for me. Critics will praise how I handle grim realities. Her womb is barren.”
