I'm going full-on geeky here, so just to warn those who may not know that about me (though if you have seem some of my pictures and don't know I'm a geek, not sure how many more clues I could give)...
OK, just finished reading issue #41 of Batman. The one where, now that Bruce Wayne is dead (though rumors of his demise may be greatly exaggerated or they could end up resurrecting him, because it is a comic book), and Jim Gordon:
Shaves his head down to a buzz cut, and gets rid of his mustache
Gets Lazik surgery so he doesn't have to wear glasses
Quits smoking
All so he can climb inside a big metal suit and call himself Batman.
Dumbest. Fucking. Idea. Ever.
Seriously, what the fuck DC? I've been collecting your books since The New Teen Titans back when I was 7! Been collecting Batman titles for the last 8 years or so. And this makes me want to pull my hair out! Hey, news flash, whomever thought of this idea and the asshat who approved it. Just because you want to do something, doesn't mean you always should do it. And, nothing against Jim Gordon, but he's 46, and it just seems really dumb to make him be Batman. I mean, what the Hell where you guys smoking when this idea shot around the office, cuz it seems like some really potent stuff. For fuck's sake!
OK, I'm calm(er), just needed to get that off my chest. That's all :)
