Not only can you not rehabilitate me but even if you could I wouldn't trust you to not abandon me half way through. Wow. Shuts up psychiatrists every time.

I actually never really thought about it in that light but thats a very valid way to read it. I always just looked at it as the Joker acknowledging that they are both equally batshit crazy.

A scene that always stands out in my mind is the last issue of the Odyssey arc in Peter David's Captain Marvel volume 2.
In the future, Marv's son has allied himself with the Magus and they threaten the universe. Marv is going to fight his son and his son has a long monologue that it will be an epic battle and legends will spawn from it for years to come and the very mountains will quake. In his first attack he passes right through Marv and eventually disappears. We see why in the next couple of pages.
Marv goes back to his own time and decides to kill his son while he is a babe in the crib.
That was fucking tragic.
One my favourite moments in recent years was in Infinite Crisis #4, when the Flashes are trying to deal with SB-Prime and the only one left if Bart. When he's shouting "I'M NOT A STUPID KID!" just as Barry reaches out of the Speed Force and says "You're not alone, either." And then Max and that other dead speedster reach out as well and drag him into the Speed Force.
The end of Transmetropolitan was really powerful as well; albeit in more of a "You lucky bastard" kind of way.
The whole issue building up how the disease Spider's got is ruining his brain; how in all but one percent of cases no one makes any sort of recovery and how it's got so bad he can't even light his own cigerettes anymore because his hands are shaking so much and that all he wants is to spend his last few months in peace in his house on the Mountain.
In last scene, alone in his garden, he puts an unlit cigerette in his mouth and holds a gun under his chin.
He pulls the trigger. A flame appears at the end of the barrel, which he uses to light his cigarette. It's a bloody novelty lighter. "One percent."
I'm not trying to start up a monkey shit throwing contest. I'm simply curious.
I never bought the hype. And I just don't particularly like his stories, even when you disregard all the extraneous shit like in Transmet. That's a special case because I just never understood how people could care so much about everything else like Spider being an antisocial misanthrope (which, believe me, isn't nearly as cool as he makes it look), but miss the central point of Spider speaking truth to power. But it's just hard to say. I dislike his work, or rather am just not impressed. It's a bit like how I think Ed Brubaker is awesome, but I can't exactly say why.
But let me say this: I got banned from a Shadowrun web forum for having this argument, so I am not about to have it here because I actually like this place.

It's not an argument in the slightest. I was just wondering what you thought.
Re: Impulse/Bart's funeral. Why the fuck does Beast Boy look 40?
And why doesn't Raven have the respect to put her fucking hood down? I mean, keeping masks on for the other heroes is pretty obvious. Not only do they want to keep their identity secret, they also want to show respect as a hero.

Heartbreaking two pages.

Their "OH GOD NO" faces make it better.

I am partial to the full page, Jessie & Tulip in the show with the "I build my dreams around you." title at the bottom.

You bastard, Spider Jeresulem.
WHUH OH.
I know you hates you some Warren Ellis.
But why?

Then:
So whenever somebody brings up Neil Gaiman, I don't really have anything to bring to the table.
I went on to say it's hard talking to folks who're heavily into writers I don't read and/or enjoy and that Neil Gaiman was boring for me.
I remember becoming physically ill from reading it because of how horrific it was.
I know. It was a bad choice of words.
Black Adam is a very violent man.
"Was that really necessary?"
"Yes."
"No more silly faces"
Black Adam taught us to never play Three Stooges with him.
Ever.
