- That Central City looks like Central City in Rogue's Revenge.
- "I have always found the eating plan to be an excellent backup."
- That the cosmic egg, a vestige of the JLA/Avengers crossover is still part of DC's continuity.
- "Sidekick City".
- Wow. That situation with Iris didn't quite work out as expected, did it?
- I bet Despero's the kind of guy who'll never stop to ask directions.
- That I'm not sure which is scarier, Inertia or Zoom.
- Blue Beetle talking to his "backpack".
- Superspeed decapitation... yay!
- That Jimmy Olsen is part of that particular JLA database.
- I guess being Inertia takes a lot of guts.
- Nnamdi's clever subterfuge.
- Okay, that Poison Ivy story was almost pure EC Comics! Take that, Doc Wertham!
- Manhunter versus Black Canary. Heh. Heh heh.
- Spider-Man in Daredevil's costume. Why aren't you reading Spider-Man?
- Trigon putting a cherry on Raven's pancakes.
- I like this "Infinity"; howcum I've never heard of her before?
- Say what you will about Judd Winick's writing (and I have), but his Batman is all five kinds of cool. And SO much cooler than Green Arrow.
- The highly unexpected guest star in Birds of Prey.

That first item reminds me -- my wife and I went to see The Drowsy Chaperone this weekend. It's structured as a music fan sharing one of his favorite records, so it opens with the entire stage as his dingy "little" apartment (which gets trandformed to the setting of the show). About a minute in, my wife leaned over and said, "He must have one of those giant Central City apartments."
Your wife is extremely cool; treasure her!
This is, what, the fourth week in a row that Scipio's favorite moments in comics have included something from Marvel Comics??
IT'S THE APOCALYPSE!!
Kelson I Love your wife, she's cool!
I can't wait to see Black Canary and Manhunter rumble...I have been waiting since the last issue...also curious about this "unexpected" guest star!!
Interestingly enough, I was reading of Dr. Wertham and his crusdae against the "evils" of EC Comics yesterday. Strange stuff.
"Your wife is extremely cool"
Yes. Yes she is! :-D
Why aren't you reading Spider-Man?
Of all the comic book bloggers in the world, I would think you, Mr. Garling, would know the answer to this question.
Are you actually suggesting I deign to sully my weekly purchases by including a copy of a title from *shudder* that other company?
If you are, then I strongly suspect that someone has kidnapped the real Scipio Garling and replaced him with either a clone or a Skrull or whatever cheap device that can be used to easily explain such dramatic breaks in established continuity.
Tell me, have you recently made a deal with the devil?

I'm trying very hard to avoid making the obvious joke here....
Oh I definitely didn't see that particular thing with Iris coming. Oh well!
A small week for me...Green Lantern Corps STILL isn't out! (sob) but the Canary/Manhunter spat served nicely.
"Spider-Man in Daredevil's costume. Why aren't you reading Spider-Man?"
Sweet Zombie Baby Murdock!
This is what I've been telling people! Now maybe they'll listen!
where can I find the Jimmy Olson reference?
In "Trinity".
Where can I find Winick's Batman?
Winick's Batman? lining birdcages across America
Oh my god, there is a great deal of helpful data above!
