As you may have noticed, I’ve been in bit of a Low Content Mode for the last few days. Sorry about that, but on the days I wasn’t feeling under the weather, I was otherwise occupied with Real Life stuff and haven’t had the time or energy to put together my typical way-overwritten commentary on things barely anyone cares about.

I’m not going anywhere, but I’m just going about it a bit more slowly at the moment. I’ll be back to normal operating standards, such as they are, soon.

In the meantime, here’s the variant cover by Ivan Reis for Brightest Day Aftermath: The Search for Swamp Thing #2, due out this week at your local funnybook store:


Yes, the Constantine/Superman interaction is about as awkward as you’d think. More details here at the DC Comics blog, where it was apparently posted a month ago and I somehow missed it. …It’s a hard thing, gettin’ older and slower.

    Quite simply, this comic sucks. The Search for Swamp Thing is HORRIBLY written. It’s a complete disaster.

    What’s this now? Self-deprecating humor aside, I beg to differ.

    Under-appreciated geniuses since the Industrial Revolution:

    Nikola Tesla
    A. A. Griffith
    Joseph Whitworth
    Julius Fromm
    Barbara McClintock
    Mike Sterling (and moving up the list fast)

    Why is Superman flying with his head so far sideways?

    Why is Superman wearing his old red undies rather than his brand new levi’s?
