Brennert's take on Hawk & Dove in B&B #178 (I think) was a direct and predominant influence on my portrayal of those characters in Lash House.
Cei-U! I steal from the best!

For sure, there was a run of B&B that were just great stories. The 2 we mentioned and the one that had the Earth 2 romance between the Catwoman and Batman.

My wife uses Goodreads a lot; I don't. I realize that the site's name is supposed to be read as "Good Reads" but I can't help seeing it as "Goo Dreads".
But that isn't the reason I don't use it - I just have no interest in tracking what I read.

I'm a big fan of Goo Dreads. The site not the hair. I've been reading a lot more prose than comics the last few years.

Our own ministry of education is addressing the problem by making it ever harder for kids to learn to read. Instead they'll learn to appreciate positive feelings and build pencil cups out of popsicle sticks, which hardly ever led anyone to crime.

I acquired old episodes of the show Unsolved Mysteries that was popular in the late 1980's and into the 90's. That alone is the one show or form of "entertainment" that to this day still frightens me. I still can't watch any of the segments if I'm alone in the house. The way they filmed the show as quite brilliant in achieving a very eerie effect. Along with the music and Robert Stack's ominous voice. I remember as a kid I would leave the lights and television on after the show had gone off because I was so scared.

It's funny, now I think people WISH their kids were comic book readers. Not a large amount of comic nerds knocking over banks nowadays.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes seems to be getting fantastic reviews. Anyone going to see it?

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes seems to be getting fantastic reviews. Anyone going to see it? I still have the dvd of Rise of the Planet of the Apes waiting to be watched. Maybe I'll watch it soon so I can go see Dawn of the PotA.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes seems to be getting fantastic reviews. Anyone going to see it? I'm seeing the Broadway musical with Troy McClure.

I hate every ape I see from chimpan-a to chimpan-z.

RISE was good; I expect DAWN to be too... I think they got the titles on those two backwards however...
