^^ I have been reading the Batgirl issues of this story arc. The last page of Batgirl #17 was pretty gruesome. The story concludes in this weeks Batman #17. I think I may know what you mean. If so....yeah..what ?

 

I read a preview that basically gives away the end of the arc and I'm pretty sure it's gruesome as hell if I have it right.

*POTENTIAL SPOILER*

It seems like the Joker is going to serve him Alfred's corpse on a plate.


*END SPOILER*

Ah, modern DC ... I'm so glad I avoid you like the plague.

 

SPOILERS

Apparently the big reveal was that nothing happened. 

If I had read all 23 parts of this huge epic (expensive) storyline, and the big ending was that the Joker "apparently" fell to his death, I'd burn the comics like Luke burned Vader. 

I usually don't follow the "troll" threads, but seriously? Dude comes back to ask for his previous butt-ish posts to be deleted? Is he really that much of a butthead, or is this some kind of weird new meta-meta-trolling?

I think Rufus Sewell has a great persona for a space opera, either a good guy or a bad.

Zombie are so played out right now, I'm not even sure an actual zombie apocalypse would scare me.

Batman has like, seven Robins, some of whom you need to twist time and space for their existence to make any sense, and they kill off Alfred!??!

Not that this is allowed to happen in blockbusters anymore but I can't be the only person who wants unknowns / TV actors with one or two well-established faces as the big bads can I?

Star Trek 09?

Marc Blucas looks like a merge of the Skywalker and Solo gene pools.

Pity he has the charisma of a wet towel. 

The only character I'd care to see back is Luke.

I think there's something very Star-Warsy in Kevin McKidd He can be rougish, evil, or noble.

It would be a good opportunity to show some nuanced views of the Galactic Civil War: not all Imperials are bad, and maybe not all the Jedi are all that good either.

Yeah. I agree. What Star Wars needs is more muddying of the waters between good and bad. Heroes we can't root for and villains we can't dislike. That's what made the OT great.

I hope for Williams. 

To write the music, not to score with Frink.

I don't think I do. I'm quite the mercenary.

I can't even begin to express my complete disinterest in these. 

Looks really good. But couldn't they get Johnny Depp to play Robinson?

American Footballer Steve Young.

Why did DC comics decide that all heroes need to have lots of new lines on their costumes. It's like they had a "redesign" party where they took existing pictures of the heroes and just drew lots of lines on them. It looks stupid.

Sorry, I didn't read the OP very well. I didn't see the PT first, so I guess my answers are invalid.

I think it would be cool if Yoda was larger in his youth; appearing similar to the Namekians in Dragon Ball Z. The writer could write-in that his people naturally shrink with age.

This would allow him to fight with less... jumping. Also, it would illustrate that "size matters not" because the increase in wisdom (and oneness with the force) that comes with age would more than compensate for the decrease in height and brawn.

But he's only 20 years younger. That/s .02% of his lifespan between the PT and the OT. For a human, that'd be like aging about a year.

Don't forget all those guys in those wierd "And I'm a Mormon" adds on youtube.

• I fix motorcycles and love soup. And I'm a Mormon.
• I fought in Bosnia, and advocate for narrow gauge model railroads. And I'm a Mormon.
