~100th post! DC's MILLENNIUM!!!

-For all the shit it gets... Millennium wasn't bad at all.........

...okay, okay; HALF of the 1987 Millennium crossover/event wasn't bad. The other half was pretentious, presumptuous, had too many plot-holes, and led to the truly horrendous New Guardians comic series. -BUT the Manhunter half of the story-line was really fucking cool!!! And a lot of neat things happened in the eight issues by Steve Englehart, Joe Staton, and Ian Gibson... too many to go over here. However- for my 100th post; I'd like to share a few of the little things that made me laugh.

In case you're unfamiliar: As the Dalek's say "Exterminate!", and The Borg say "Resistance is futile..."; The Manhunter's saying is "No Man Escapes The Manhunters!" and they are in full-on Hail-Hydra-whisper-mode in this part of the story... They've infiltrated the entire DC Universe, replacing high ranking officials and many supporting characters with androids, willing human agents, and/or mind-controlled ones...

And look how progressive, and inclusive, The Manhunters are being! It's good to see that even though they are evil- they're growing as people.

Also, the fact that Martian Manhunter is in the Justice League while all this is happening does not go unreferenced:

J'onn J'onzz: "What!? Nooo... I'm not a *air quotes* Manhunter *air quotes*

What ever gave you that idea? I never have been, or will be, referred to as such."

Blogger Analytics III: Yep, It's Still Mostly Porn. (NSFW)

~Unfortunately for everyone; here's another blog-installment of my Google-Image-Searching the same Search Keywords that somehow linked others to my little comic-book site... while probably adding me to a bunch of watch-lists for my trouble. And it all starts with "mongul porn".

-See what I did there?

Playing catch-up here at The Little Things... How the heck is everyone???
Dude, how good was Guardians of The Galaxy?
Seriously.
I cried.
I was not expecting to cry... I don't give a fuck- I'll admit it: I cried like a little bitch.
-That open was fucking heart-wrenching... and then the loop-around-scene at the end; with what the present from his Mom was? So good.
-Rocket got to me a few times, too... like when you first saw his cybernetics (wonderfully subtle), or that scene where he was drunk, upset, and in tears... and especially when Drax was comforting him at the end?... oh, so many feels! I'm trying to mention scenes without going into any real detail about them- because, for real-real: SEE THIS DAMN MOVIE.

Anyways, I enjoyed this 'The Most Dangerous Game'-type story, from Justice League Quarterly #14, featuring Crimson Fox, so much- I'ma just post it here for you all to enjoy!:
