I (ahem) "lol'd," as the kids say. :D I hope this is the future of superhero comics: lately the Big Two are taking themsleves way too seriously and although at times I appreciate the issues they tackle (civil rights, for instance) they are still comics, still fiction and still entertainment. Readers can only stand so much Hollywoodization of comics by making them serious, grim and "wide-screen." Who gives a fuck about copyright if the public can remix their favourite comics into something more appealing? An excellent find, sir. I (ahem) “lol’d,” as the kids say. :D
