No love for DC? not quite...

I just realized that I've yet to post anything DC comics related. This isn't surprising to me, considering the lack of enthusiasm I have for most of the DCU, but it's inexcusable given the incredible amounts of squee I hold for specific DC characters and books, especially considering what's going on with them at the moment.

First and foremost. OMG Black Canary! I was so saddened when Dinah left the Birds o' Prey, but getting her own mini before getting equal billing with Ollie on his title totally makes up for it. Also, am a huge sucker for superhero weddings. HUGE. Can't wait. Also for wedding planner special. Will rock, I am certain of it

Of course my first and purest love of the DCU is Barbara Gordon. Sigh, I am so gay for Babs... and Birds Of Prey is either my first or second favorite ongoing at the moment. (The other would have to be Runaways, and all the radness contained within) Gail Simone is my comics goddess, truly. I could gush for pages about all this, so I'll contain myself and just give a quick list of things that I love in the DCU.

• The now defunct (and mostly dead) Young Justice. Apparently membership in this totally awesome team is now a death mark, so RUN TIM RUN!
• *sniffles* I especially love Impulse... *sob*
• On the bright side, Piper & Trickster tethered together? instant highlarity!
• Big Barda. So badass.
• Harley Quinn! (renouncing her former criminal life? Pssht, yah right....)
• Manhunter, of which I am enamored although I have yet to actually sit down and read an actual storyline, due to my not actually owning any issues. Must remedy
• The whole damn Arrow family. Especially Mia. I love Mia.
• Almost every Bat-villian...
• Especially Scarecrow, whose voicing on Batman: TAS gave me nightmares as a child.
• And did I mention Harley Quinn?
• Cause she's badass too
• Nightwing. Cause he's hott, and if I can't be with Babs, he should!
• Because of Gail Simone, I now ship Catman/Huntress, despite being previously ambivalent towards any pairing involving Helena. Also, why is Catman superhott now? this is not sane! I should not be desiring effing CATMAN.
• "Your disappointment is a burden I will carry with me for as long as it takes me to finish this sentence." - Red Tornado being snarky in Young Justice. Love for Reddy
• "OUT OF MY WAY, SPERM BANK!"

Wow, that's a longer list than I originally thought I would have - given that it's just stuff off the top of my head...

Hehe, sperm bank.
