In this day and age, I’m a little surprised no one has tried writing Anarky as an actual far-left extremist, either sincerely or as a strawman of Twitter leftists. As it is, we have versions like this, where he’s begging to turn state’s evidence and go to the feds. Lonnie Machin would NEVER.

Is it just me, or does both last month’s Absolute Batman and this month’s issue of Batman suggest a sudden surge in Jonathan Banks likenesses in the big Bat-books?

Plus, it’s especially funny to me hearing people gawk at these designs, when I—a Two-Face fan—see people react to these McFarlane designs. My guy gets very little merch as it is, and when he does, no one ever gawks at how weird it is like when the Madballs vet designed one.

I have my own, decades-long issues with Todd’s style, impact, etc, but I don’t see anything at all out-of-character or inappropriate with these takes on canonically-big guys like Bane, Alec, and Darkseidz I don’t even like the design of Absolute Batman, and to me, these’re perfectly cromulent.

Updating that “current mood” meme from yesterday to account for learning about the rumor of Scarlett Johansson maybe playing Gilda in an even-more-Long-Halloween-inspired sequel to “The Batman,” all while I’m dealing with severe, unmedicated stomach acid problems:

If I’m perfectly honest, though, I’m dealing with a medical procedure to treat my severe reflux issues, which has necessitated being off my stomach meds for the past week. So the truth is I feel more like Harvey’s worst day but from the inside, all the time.

(8) And while I do think Bea is Tora’s soulmate, I think Guy and Tora had a special connection and I don’t think I’ve seen anyone acknowledge that in over 15 years until Waid’s recent issue of JLU.

(6) And when Tora came back to life in BoP, Guy reunited with her in Tomasi’s GLC run. It’s bittersweet bc she’s too fucked up from dying/undying to pursue a relationship with Guy, who knows he can’t help her and eventually learns to just stay away. But I love this bit so, so much.

(4) Which is why this bit from the Armageddon 2001 annual meant so much to me. It was a look at a future where Guy’s repeated brain damages finally make him break down, and Tora accepts him. I know you read this, so I’d hoped that maybe it might soften you on him a bit but oh well.

I finally read the original 90’s run of “Spider-Man 2099,” and after looking up wikis for further info, I can think of no single screenshot which can best sum up the experience of reading DC/Marvel comics. What other medium is so collaboratively in flux to the point of retconning a retcon’s retcon?

Then there’s the missed opportunity to acknowledge whether or not Waid’s Harvey knows Batman’s secret identity, and by extension, Robin’s as well. The whole bluff where he pretended to have caused the Graysons’ murders only works if Harvey KNEW who was behind Robin’s mask.

Despite including numerous recent teams, plus a prominent nod to Jason’s time with the Outlaws, I note that Task Force Z was entirely absent from Waid’s New History of the DCU. Not entirely surprising, but still: dang, that story really has been memoryholed, hadn’t it? Not even a mention!

I fully agree. It’s why I loved “Batman: The Audio Adventures” so much, because it felt like a series about Gotham as a whole, not just Batman. And in terms of civilians, I wish more people knew about Ostrander’s “Gotham Nights” minis, maybe the closest we’ve ever gotten to Batman’s “Astro City.”

My first two comics, Batman or otherwise, were encountered when I was 7 and changed my life forever. They opened up a whole world of rogues, introduced me to Jim Aparo, and gave me my lifelong fixation for Harvey Dent (who I especially love when he rocks the Aparo turtleneck).

While I’d hate to see “Batman: The Long Halloween” get a live action movie (especially after the animated one), it’s be incredible if Gilda were played by Ella Purnell. Like, that’d be so perfect that I couldn’t even be mad. She’d singlehandedly improve Loeb’s story so much more than it deserves.

Randomly, were you aware of Max’s counterpart in the Amalgam (DC and Marvel crossover) universe where he was combined with X-Men villain Cameron Hodge (Angel’s rich, duplicitous friend who becomes a killer cyborg) to become Lord Maxwell Hodge? Sadly he dies almost immediately.

Aren’t you tired of being ashamed for enjoying things? I spent so long being embarrassed by the cringe-ass taste of my youth, and I’m not a better person because of it. Just tired. Engage with stuff you liked with a critical eye of maturity, don’t just go “yeah we suck, we deserve to be hated.”

Al Ewing and Steve Lieber’s utterly hilarious Metamorpho book also ended at issue #6, just like Two-Face’s solo series, but at least I feel even more encouraged to politely bug DC to get a continuation for both books.

Share the last 4 games you’ve played and expose your gaming habits. After the strange, mixed bag that was Veilguard, I’ve apparently been needing to weather the daily horrors and depression with metroidvanias and my first foray into roguelikes. Plus replaying HK, an old favorite.

Happy Mother’s Day to Harvey Dent’s mom, who—for the first time in the 83 years that Two-Face has existed—has finally been given a face and backstory of her own! Still wish we knew her name, though.

A movie that takes place where you’re from: I thought at first that I’d have to pick one of the bigger Maryland films, like Blair Witch or a John Waters movie, but this one literally was set within a mile of where I spent the first 29 years of my life. And it’s a damn great film to boot!

Four of my favorite entire movie scores, not counting ones that have one or two pieces I adore with a lot of incidental filler. I could have added several more by Morricone and Nyman alone. Didn’t include John Williams bc it’s just too obvious, same for Elfman’s Batman scores.

Doing this really made me appreciate Ward’s use of color. I’d planned on using my favorite purple mat, which I always thought was too bold for most customers. Against Ward’s own colors, it looked washed out. I had to meet his rich palette with my own materials. So fun and satisfying!

I learned how to cut and assemble the silver fillet just for this job. It’s got a weathered look that not only invokes the coin but also the bars on Scarvey’s prison cell. I wanted the silver to be a uniting factor against the custom-ordered two-tone frame.

It’s hard to emphasize how hugely game-changing this moment from “Gotham Nocturne” was for Harvey Dent as a character and his fans. To see this after decades of him trying to suppress or destroy his dark side was pure cathartic beauty.
