thehefnerThree weeks ago (with my "JLA teams up with Two-Face... wait what?!" post), lamashtar asked if I was going to post this particular issue, or if it was "too schmaltzy." To be honest, I wasn't sure (of either)!
Who here has read the Hal Jordan SPECTRE series (which ran 27 issues from 2001 to 2003)? I'm genuinely curious as to what anybody made of it. Personally, it was one of the more frustrating reading experiences I've ever had.
Issue #5--the topic of this week's post--is no exception, namely because it features the unlikely meeting of my two all-time favorite characters. And the results are... well... I'm still not really sure even now.
( Crazy murderous ex-heroes, the question of redemption, alien ghost cop spirit guides, and metaphysical theological jibba-jabba behind the cut! )
All that said, between this and their meeting in that JLA story, I'm in agreement withalias_grace when she expressed a wish for a proper Hal/Harvey teamup. Because, she said, "Hal is so very pragmatic, and has no patience for the crazy, and Harvey would take a deep and abiding delight in fucking with his head."
Seriously, I would pay good money to see J. Michael Straczynski write this as an issue of THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD, considering how he wrote Two-Face in the TEEN TITANS story and Hal in the most recent issue of TB&TB (with Dr. Fate).
Is anyone else reading TB&TB? I've really been liking it, and the GL/Dr. Fate issue was simply wonderful. I'm kind of surprised that no one seems to be talking about it.

pyrotwilightI've been wondering if it was worth posting but after I came upon yet another cameo of Tomorrow Woman in a comic back issue I was reading it seemed like a good time to do so.

Green Manor: Post-Scriptum
Jan. 12th, 2010 01:01 pmhoubanaut
Green Manor is a cool little series of short stories about a London gentlemen's club whose members tend to be fascinated with murders (either as detectives or as killers). It also happens to be written by Fabien Vehlmann, the guy who's now taken over Spirou. The first two collections, Assassins and Gentlemen and The Inconvenience of Being Dead are available in English translation from Cinebook.
