    My blu-ray disc of The Shadow got damaged because one of my roommates got jam on the disk.

    I need to buy it again.

    how does this happen

    Roommates take disks out and just put them down on tables!

    Why the hell would someone not put it back in its case?!

    One of my roommates drunkenly stepped on my PS4 and damaged the disk drive, so I can't even put any dvds/games into it anymore.

    Roommates are awful.
    Wait, why is your PS4 in a position to actually be stepped on?

    I had brought it downstairs to watch Dragon Ball with my best friend and left it on the floor.

    It should be noted that we left it there for the span of maybe 5 hours as we left to go to a social function.

    When we returned part of it was caked with mud & the disk drive was inoperable.

    Goddess Mode is pretty great. It is beautiful and there are some parts that are clearly autobiographical (the first few pages) that are incredibly raw to read

    I don't know your roommates and so don't want to pass judgment on them

    but

    I am 100% passing judgment on your roommates.

    My former roommate is a fiend and a man who I truly hate with ever fiber in my being.

    I despise him and wish him only ill.

    It is an old hate, a pure hate, a divine hate.

    Mad Monk was just one dude, in red, and also a vampire

    But yeah, I just noticed their tattoos so maybe not the KKK, but the imagery is there

    Justice League is further embracing its DCAU inspired direction by doing a 6 part INTO THE SIXTH DIMENSION involving Mr. Mxyzptlk and introducing the DCU Justice Lords.

    Jorge Jiminez is also moving from just penciling to co-writing with Scott Snyder.

    For a moment I thought that was Shazam cause the cape looked like the hood.

    Also Martian Manhunter is the same in both versions.

    No, the traditional "Evil Justice League" is the Crime Syndacate of America

    The Justice Lords are from the DCAU

    Nope, an original DCAU creation

    The comics has the Crime Syndicate which are evil alternate versions of the JL but the Justice Lords specifically, meaning a future totalitarian version of the League, were an original creation

    The big difference between the Justice Lords and the Crime Syndicate is that the Lords don’t think they are doing anything wrong.

    That’s Ultraman from the syndicate in one version of it, IIRC

    Apparently Eric Esquivel was slotted to co-write Nightwing with Scott Lobdell for an arc before taking over the title fully afterwards.

    This has, unsurprisingly, been scrapped with the first issue of Esquivel's collaboration being re-written with Lobdell as the sole talent.

    The prospect of someone looking at my writing and thinking “this would be so much better if Scott Lobdell wrote it” would crush me as comicbook writer.

    The reasoning is more "Lobdell may not be a great writer, but he isn't a shithead."

    His Rebirth stuff has actually been decent! Like, nothing amazing, but readable, mostly enjoyable comics.

    I wonder how that works with cowriters. Do they go in and change all the dialogue. Does he just change the plot line. Is it the same but with a name taken out of it?
