A guy in line in front of me for the Spider-Man ride at Universal Islands of Adventure tried to school me on Spidey last time I was there.

One of the pieces of art in the line shows the Spidey-signal. This guy (wearing a Deadpool shirt) got all authoritative and started telling me there was ‘no such thing as a Spidey-signal.’

Poor bastard. 

Gail, quick question. I was curious if this was true, do girls like guys who roll up the sleeves on button up shirts? Are bow ties better than regular ties? What do girls think of a guy who becomes nervous when asking a girl out?

I write comics sometimes.

I've never watched Arrow. Can you convince me to watch it?

Yes.

Do you think Chris Pine is a good fit for Steve Trevor? He sure is pretty enough.

I like the older Steve from George Perez’s run, but if you’re going to have a younger guy, Chris is a fine choice. 

They could have spiced it up a bit with a less blonde, blue-eyed type, however.

Are you going to any Texas cons in the near future?

Been invited to a bunch, am definitely well past due. I am thinking about it!

ohmygil:

Tilda Swinton in talks to play The Ancient one is not only offensive it upsets me because she’s my Ragdoll if they ever make a Secret Six movie.

Wow.

That never occurred to me. 

I would be tickled pink if you manage to arrange with @jackiekashian to appear on her Dork Forest podcast next time you're in the vicinity. You dig comedy and she digs comics, and as two of my favourite creative types I'm sure you'd hit it off.

I love Jackie Kashian, and I just recently missed seeing her live by a matter of minutes, in Portland, Oregon, at the Bridgetown Comedy Festival. She has said very nice things about my writing, and she has invited me to be on her show and I have accepted, but we have made no further plans yet. I have no idea where her vicinity is, for one thing. :) 

But she’s amazing, she makes me laugh really hard. And she does that same thing I do, she puts ‘Magoo’ on the end of things…Wonder Woman’s butt is a rumpus Magoo, her sister is a Smarty Magoo.

That’s a weird coincidence, but very cool!

Did you hear about Justice League United's new status quo? Core leads are Stargirl, Equinox, Alana Strange and Animal Man (three women and one man). Then the rest of the team is different team-ups with heroes (and villains too!) from all across the DCU f

I saw a bit of the art and it looked gorgeous, but that’s all I know!
