Older Habits

This month's DC solicits at least *tried* not to feature only boring and disjointed team collages. Allow me to reward these efforts with mockery!

Without reading the accompanying text, I have picked some covers and made my best guess as to which stories they represent! I guess 3 months from now, we will see if I am close!

John Constantine-by-Disney kills special parts of my soul.

IDK. Disneyfied John Constantine could be a (v. horrifying) arc in the actual comic. Everything is bright and joyful and fair! AND HORRIFYING.

You caused me to google docking. I hate you.

But the cover already had a helpful illustration!

...Oliver Queen would appear to be starring in Satan's Manpain, the Musical. Or is he just red these days? I admit I haven't been paying attention. (The twisty mustache and goatee don't help, but those I am willing to concede as more normal. Although I thought they used to be, you know. Blond.)

Also, I am riveted by Batman's teeth. I don't even CARE about the hair. Those teeth are going to haunt my dreams.

TFV, it is DRAMATIC LIGHTING! Whoever is at the spotlight controls is earning their class credit.

The Green Arrow is really gorgeous art. It's a shame the artist is being totally wasted on such a terrible book.

The Batman is just BAD. Oh god.

I...really like the Ice cover. She's like a badass Sailor Mercury ;-)

But the lovingly detailed, OTT art style makes it SO MUCH MORE HILARIOUS.

Oh man! I really hope you're right. I would totally watch/read those. (Well, *most* of those... o_O) Ollie and rock opera are ment2b.

Was Ollie is the musical animated Batman episode? Suddenly I hope so!

Oh my. So he is. (Nobody told me such a musical existed! Let alone a musical like this.)

Not gonna lie: I would pay good money to see Manpain: The Musical.

Somehow I think Ollie would be more likely to express his manpain through the medium of interpretive dance, though.

I was linked here by a friend and I can't stop giggling at Guy's "cover"

:) Thanks. Honestly, this game exists because I am always going, What. What is this happening on my computer screen.

I had to look up "docking" on UrbanDictionary to see if there was a joke I wasn't getting.

Oh my.

I'm. I'm sorry.
