I want Cass and Steph in every book.

Remember how basically every book in the DC You era had a guest appearance by Dick Grayson or Batgirl or both? That's what I want with Cass and Steph.

You're just in time. Bayble Cuber's going to watch an inkle dribble adventure from days of old on my holo-pyramid viewer.

[up]I was thinking about skipping it so I could save money to get other books.

Does she have acting experience?

She apparently "dabbled" in acting, but didn't get any major roles.

Where did Wonder Woman get that Zeus' Lighting Bolt she's seen using in Justice League?

So, hey, you guys remember that Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover miniseries we got a while back?

It's happening again.

Buuuuuuuuuut, this time around, it's the Batman from Batman: The Animated Series teaming up with the Turtles from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) (the current series on Nickelodeon).

...

As someone who's seen both shows, I'd read the hell out of this one! (Although I hear the original crossover isn't so shabby...)

I'd actually go for a story teaming the Turtles up with the four male Robins. But this sounds cool too.

[up]I still wonder what his Static series would've been like if Editorial didn't freeze him out the way they did.

I'd really love to see a crossover with Batman the Brave and the Bold and the 1987 animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Also, since IDW is involved, ponies. Or Ghostbusters.

Wasn't much revealed at the Superman panel, other than a minor spoiler about the climax of the Doomsday arc in Action Comics and that Lois will be much more than "Mrs. Superman" going forward.

They are probably going to announce either a new Authority series or a Stormwatch series.

...although it would be interesting if they brought back WildC.A.T.s or Gen13

If only they could do The Authority right, instead of writing them as utter douchebags.

As for Gen 13, that comic sucked, and so did the animated film. It was a Liefeld-like mess.

Even Warren Ellis, the Authority's creator, has described them as villains.

[up]2000 but it never released in the United States.

It was made by Buena Vista Pictures.

I rented the movie in home video once, since it had a limited VHS release here, years ago. It was... okay.

I always kind of liked Gen 13, but it was a very nineties product and I don't think it really works out of that time period. Every attempt to update it misses the point. For better or worse it was a 'youngsters of the nineties' comic, and it really doesn't work anymore when moved past that point.

So random question:

Do we know the nature of the Hero Dial?

Who made it? Whether it's technology or magic? Anything like that?

I'm just randomly curious about the hero dial now.

[up] Actually, yes. Read China Mieville's Dial H series — not only does it explain where the Dials come from, but it is an incredibly awesome (and trippy) book.

If you just want the explanation, then basically: They come from a place called the Exchange in a world called "the Hub," a place where all realities converge. The people of the Exchange, the Operators, created the Dials in order to "tap into" and copy various superheroes and supervillains of all the various worlds and realities. However, some Dials didn't just copy powers, they also stole them and those who had had their powers stolen eventually found their way to the Exchange and a war broke out, killing almost all of the Operators. Eventually, there was only one Operator left, the Lost Operator, who left the Exchange behind and vowed to continue making Dials.

Has it been established if Death of the Endless will ever die? We know she lasts until the end of the universe, but without a universe to define her, without anything every happening, she shouldn't be able to exist long after creation ends(otherwise we'd probably have one of the earlier universe's deaths around). Then again she is Neil's Mary Sue, all to prove how totally superior and omniversal his Endless are to established cosmic beings who are both 100% canon and have been present longer in DC lore...at least that's my opinion
