It seems DC Comics has teamed up with Nielsen NRG to get some actual stats on comic book readers. Maybe they'll realize that there actually is a female readership out there that they shouldn't alienate!

More info about the survey here for anyone who's interested. I already filled it out myself.

ETA: According to one blogger: "they threw in a fake title, “Nerak” among the new 52. Make sure you put “Hadn’t heard of it”, or else they may discount all of your answers. CONSTANT VIGILANCE!"

So I'm not going to the comic book store until later.


But I was already spoiled on the ending of Catwoman #1.



And. Well.


...


I'm just going to link to the last page and let it speak for itself.

ETA: The page before works a million times better. Aside from that nnnnngh bat-ear placement.

After all the talk of female creators in comics (or lack of) as of late, the Kickstarter for Womanthology just broke $101k with 4 hours left.

Booyah.

I just thought I'd throw this up quick since we have a lot of artists, writers and comic fans in the comm...

Womanthology is an all-female comics anthology that's been getting a fair amount of press for its Kickstarter campaign. There are 140+ contributors, both unpublished talent and some pretty well-known names (Gail Simone, Ann Nocenti, Fiona Staples, Ming Doyle, etc etc etc). All profits will be going to charity, which is why they need a Kickstarter even though IDW is publishing it.

Since the pledges have already blown past the amount needed to print the anthology, the organizer (Renae De Liz who did the art for The Last Unicorn comic) is looking at doing a second volume most likely with both male and female contributors. There is a secondary creator list being put together here both for a future volume and in case any contributors for Womanthology have to step down for whatever reason. Just wanted to share for all the writers and artists here who are interested in doing comics to have a chance to throw their names in too :)

There's also a couple pledge spots in the Kickstarter to have your art portfolio reviewed by the Editor in Chief of IDW Publishing. $100 IS cheaper than going to SDCC, I suppose...

Some Batman news here. Looks like Bruce is the only Batman and Robin is... Damian! I wonder if he'll still be Talia's kid.

Also:

Batgirl cover (no more Oracle?)
Nightwing cover (looks more like Dick than Jason to me...)
Catwoman cover (yay!)

Discuss/rant/etc?

To brighten everyone's day a little, footage that actually makes the Green Lantern movie look kind of awesome.

DARK KNIGHT RISES


ANNA HATHAWAY AS CATWOMAN

TOM HARDY AS BANE

(For the record, I do not disapprove! I trusted Nolan's casting for the last movie and wasn't disappointed at all. Also, Hathaway looks a lot like Adam Hughes' Selina.)

...and likes messing with fashiony clothes-type things, Looklet is pretty fun.

This is how I kind of imagine Selina dressing on a daily basis... )

Go make your own things and post in comments if desired!

Not serious enough to post to OOC, but I know I've been slow responding to tags and that will probably continue. Lots of stuff going on, not the least of which being that my hamsters had a surprise for me....

So this week's Gotham City Sirens wasn't particularly well-written. However, this scene was pretty amusing anyway.



I had to share, of course.

Considering she paid a fortune to have the building remodeled, you think she'd have a nicer bathroom.

Okay, I know it's well established in canon that Selina likes older men, but we've hit a new record.



That is Jason Blood. He's been alive since the days of Camelot. Yeah...

From Wednesday Comics, where Selina had wacky magical adventures that included turning into a panther, getting molested by Morgane, and a possession via fly swarm. Even for her, that's a weird date.

So people can get a better idea of the production quality of a typical play by the Shadow Girls...

So who here is good at editing the background out of photos? Normally I'd just use another image, but it isn't every day you find a PB wearing an exact canon outfit.

Version 1 and
Version 2 for anyone who wants to take a crack.

Also, who made an "lb is the greatest" tag? It was in the tag list but not on any entries...

ETA:Thanks Ay!

Catwoman's solo series is coming back from the dead for Blackest Night. Catwoman #83 out today! Catty vs. Black Lantern Black Mask! Black Maskern? Whatever, yay and check it out and stuff. Even if she's robbing museums again for no clear reason.

Also, Sara is a terrible person.

Everyone else is doing it and writing apps seems like a good way to kill time on a plane flight (even though I have work I should be doing).

This is important information.

Also, I've made waaaaaaaay too many spam accounts and don't want to just delete them because some of the names are cool. I know that there's a comm for pawning off unwanted accounts, but I thought I'd check here first to see if anyone wants them (also, too lazy to go pull it up.)

Ze List )

I'm sure I'm not the only serial account maker in this game, so if anyone else has accounts they're looking to pawn off, feel free to list them in a comment here!

This is amazing. Although I might be the last person on Earth to see it.

Relevant to the upcoming date auction: in the DCAU, that's how Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne actually met!



That scene starts about 4:50, but the scene before it is the first meeting of Batman and Catwoman, so that's kind of totally worth watching too.

As for regular comic continuity? If you ask Frank Miller, they met when she was a whore that he punched in the face :|

P.S. DCAU!Selina is actually a natural brunette. She admitted to coloring her hair in the spinoff comics.
