Did you have any hand in making Infinity from the later BoP run? I always thought she was really cool, but there isn't much about her anywhere.

I did not, not sure who created Infinity, now that you mention it!

I believe I have determined the greatest line of dialogue you have ever written or probably ever will. "OH, GREAT BLAZING BAGS OF CRAP." from Villains United #6. Am I correct? :)

I have a couple favorites:

HIPPOLYTA:  Amazons…DEFEND!

and

RALPH WIGGUM: I can taste it with my sniff-sniff!

In today’s episode of “Is Richard Dawkins a revered intellect or a guy I went to high school with?”

Funny. I thought new atheists were all about not blindly believing something from a book.

Another embarrassing statement from a guy I used to really admire.

arkhamboundz:

It’s not done yet but this is close. I will have to do some modifications on the mask (maybe) and these leggings aren’t the ones I’m going to use. Oh, and my hair is a mess and not red (yet).

HEY!  YOU IN THE LEGGINGS!

QUIT BEING SO DAMN PERFECT!

Misfit is back!

Hello Gail! I've been dying to ask this since forever and finally gathered my courage: would it be possible for me to send you my Batgirl #1 by mail to get it signed by you? I absolutely adore your work and it would mean the world to me - I live in norther

I am so, so, sorry, but I can’t do this. I live in the boonies, our mail is unreliable, books get rained on, or they get mangled, and I can’t make it to the post office in a timely fashion so it NEVER works out and I always end up feeling bad. I’m so sorry!

I will be in Wales, Dublin, and Norway this year, I realize that is probably still very far, but maybe someday I will be at a con and I will HAPPILY sign your books for you.

I am so sorry, I feel bad, but it just never works out.

hey gail, are you at all a stephen king fan?

HUGE Stephen King fan. LOVE Stephen King. Favorite King novel is The Dead Zone, but I have a ton of books of his that I love.

I love his son’s work, as well, the great Joe Hill. Everything he touches is gold!

He was kind enough to send me his new novel long before it came out, Nos482, to read and give an opinion on. I loved it…he even thanked me in the forward. :)

Amazing that a family could produce more than one writer that good!

When Virtue tells you to go…

…it’s best to just go.

Hey Gail, have you heard about Pope Francis's recent speech? I'm not a Catholic, or even a Christian (more of a Deist, really), but I was close to tears hearing what he said, at Mass, no less!

I have not but it sounds like I’d better!
