Just Stay at Home

in my comics this week.

• How much of an idiot must you be if Hal Jordan, of all people, calls you an idiot twice in one issue?
• Superman bites the umbilical.
• The Joker isn't a pathetic lunatic, but rather an evil genius. And a master of the art of the unexpected.
• Foot massagers, heated seats, and silk toilet paper.
• If Red Robin is who I think he is, then wouldn't Robin recognize him?
• I knew. As soon as I saw him stretch his hamstring while still in costume, I knew. It makes so much sense. And it makes me so very very happy, even though it will make many of you very very angry. And, whether you like it or not, it's what's going to save the character going forward into his new era.
• "Think. Happy. Thoughts." HiLARious!
• Alfred suggests jalapenos.
• The Riddler is left-handed?
• Bully for Willingham & Winick, who seem to understand Lois Lane better than most!
• The explanation for the dome over Argo City.
• Mary's lightning round.
• "Commit some actual journalism"; heh, before Perry was an editor, he was a great writer!
• Finally, someone remembers where Ragman lives, and what he's like. But shouldn't "cui bono" have occurred to Robin earlier...?
• The bottle-city of Metropolis would make an excellent snowglobe.
• Psst! Robotman.... you're not in the Justice League!
• "Butterscotch! Baloney! Schnauzer!" is not a paragraph I ever expected to read, not even in a comic book.
• It's always good to see the map of Gotham being used.
• They just ... aren't capable of realizing it's Clark, are they? Points to you, Grant.
• Gangbuster admitting that Hawkman is really hot.
• Jason Bard, being really hot.
• "What do you do when fate happens fast than you expect?"
• Officer Slaughter.
• "I have not felt pleasure in over two hundred years. Thank you."
• Excellent Robin cover.
• Normal Osborne was so marvelously evil this week it was awe-inspiring!
• Killer bees. Killer bees are always good.
• Psst! Robotman ... you've got a human brain. It doesn't have "recorded memories"!
• Captain Marvel versus the fire hose.
• She's right; Lex really is an idiot, isn't he?
• OMG! OMG, OMG, OMG... it's Ulysses. I loved him. I've been waiting to see him again for almost 15 years now. YAY!
