Agent X - Dead Man’s Switch Part 4.

Written by Gail Simone, Art by UDON

———————

I’ll only read the first Arc I say as I laugh nervously and cry about these cuties.

Only my 40th time reading no big deal. Also apparently Latveria sucks at food? Maybe that’s why Doom is so grouchy?

OMFG I’m SO SLOW. I totally missed the Batman reference in picture 3. HOW did I not get that?

Mary Zero is one of the first characters I ever created and I dearly love her. The idea of a character who leaves no emotional or psychic impression on most people still breaks my heart.

Once again Other Realms had no copies of The Movement

rolandbaldwin:

First they don’t stock Batgirl, then they get one copy of The Movement and I grab it, then they don’t get it this month after I insisted they did.  They don’t make it easy to be a Gail Simone fanboy.  I feel I need to set Vengeance Moth on them.

Wow.

They don’t stock BATGIRL? Holy Pete, where is this store?

Does it bum you out when people ask leading questions, trying to get you to trash other creators/comics. I realize this is sort of a leading question too but I hope that doesn't bum you out.

I don’t like it, it’s true.

Some bad stuff DOES need commenting on, whether it’s a friend or not. But often, when it involves jumping to conclusions, that’s very much against my instincts.

How much do I need to pay you to see Vengeance Moth and Barbara Gordon in a scene together?

Maybe nothing at all…  :)

Will the Nightwing Annual intersect with upcoming Batgirl issues? Have you been working with Kyle Higgins on the story?

It does, and Kyle Higgins will do a great job. I’ve read his script, it’s lovely, and offered some suggestions to make Barbara match up with her own book, and he is using them. Great cooperation!

Are there going to be anymore stories to tell with Alysia Yeoh in Batgirl? :) Great job with Alysia, by the way! Loving Babs, as well! ;)

Yep, Alysia will have more stories pretty soon. She’s in almost every issue, and has a good subplot coming in a few months!

People love her, that makes me happy.

Favorite Movement Character So Far

I know we are just starting to learn about them, but based on what you know so far, do you have a favorite member of the Movement?

Virtue

Mouse

Burden

Vengeance Moth

Tremor

Katharsis

Just wonderin’!

Woo Hoo!

Got permission to do a sneak peek of one of the best pages of art I have ever had on any script I’ve done. It’s a page from an upcoming issue of Batgirl, a candid, no-costume page, and it blows my mind every time I look at it.

It’s amazing. I’ll be posting it later today, I hope. The art team of Fernando Pasarin, Jonathan Glapion, and colorist BLOND is one of the BEST I have worked with, EVER.

Happy.

Two questions: how old is Tremor, and what does Mouse do if one of his babies has to tinkle in the middle of battle?

I would say Tremor is nineteen, and if one of Mouse’s favorites has to pee, Mouse says let it fly (he doesn’t stand on ceremony).

THE MOVEMENT #3 IS OUT TODAY!

Best reviewed issue yet, things are really starting to heat up. It’s got moths and rats and mouses and aces and demons and punching and cheeseburgers!

You definitely want to read it. :)

The New York Post gave us a Hot Pick status today, which is weird but flattering! Go read it, Vengeance Moth commands you!
