comcis, fic, stuff...
Jul. 24th, 2009 04:45 pmAs I said on Scans Daily:
Go here for two pages of mice tradesmen and one of interior art.
My much delayed book club post on Wonder Woman: the Hiketeia is up. It ran longer than I thought it would. Still, I hope we get some good responses, because I want to tear apart the Batman and Wonder Woman characterizations in the book, which I find fascinating. I'm really partial to Wondy stories that borrow heavily from Greek literature, which is why I like my Perez, Rucka and Simone Wondys so much. Ruck and Simone (more than Perez imho) are both interested in a Diana who lives in the modern world, but has strong, strong ties to the ancient world. Wondy needs that as a character. Anyway, check out book club for more on Hiketeia, which is a great Wondy story.
For those comics fans who aren't following the book club, our schedule for the fall is... interesting.
August: Justice League International Vol 1
September: JLA: Tower of Babel
October: Fables: 1001 Nights of Snowfall
November: Pride of Baghdad
Some books are super-conventional, others not so much. It'll be fun, no doubt. As I've never read JLI and only skimmed Tower of Babel, my posts on the first two will be ~fresh~ and hopefully unprejudiced. ;)
In other news,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mctabby is once again hosting the Cat's Birthday Drabblethon. Prompt submissions are now open. It's one drabble based on a randomly assigned prompt, over the course of the weekend. Not exactly onerous, and wholly hilarious.
Also, there was fic for me this week.
Intimate was written for me as part of this year's Weasley Fest.
Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny
This moment with Hermione felt more intimate than any moment before in his life.
A Sympathetic Ear (Last Assignment Remix) is a remix of my Someday They Will Be Scarce.
Xander/Anya, OC
With his long journey of Slayer rescuing almost done, Xander meets someone he can open up to.
