Batgirl Loves Burritos!
Ack! The entire first ‘mini-sode’ of Lauren Faust’s Super Best Friends Forever premiered this Saturday, and now Youtube has the fully minute-long clip in its entirety. I think it’s a travesty against nature that this cartoon is only going to be seen in about half a dozen short clips, but it is what it is. So sit back and enjoy one of the most adorable superhero cartoons ever!
And for some reason, Batgirl absolutely loves burritos. She also seems a little insane. Just saying…
The Top 6 Irish Comic Book Characters
Top o’th’mornin’ to ya, me bloggies! Or the afternoon. Or even Sunday, depending on when you’re reading this. Throw back a pint in the name of your favorite geek Internet blogger! I’ve got a little bit of Irish in me, and that sure comes in handy on this, the holiest of the green holidays! It’s St. Patrick’s Day!
And like all things, whether it be holidays or the judicial system, I like to attach superheroes to it! So here’s my list of the Top 6 comic book characters who also have a little Irish in them. Oddly enough, I couldn’t find any superhero named ‘Leprechaun’. Somebody get Marvel Comics on the phone! Have I got an idea for them!
Superman vs. The Elite Trailer Arrives!
I don’t know if that video will successfully embed or not. I still haven’t figured out how to get something other than a Youtube video to embed. Either way, it will provide a link for you to visit. I know, what a hassle, right?
Or maybe this will work:
Anyway, I said a lot about this movie in a previous post that you can read here.
I think this is a stupid idea for an animated movie, and the trailer doesn’t help. While it shows plenty of action, and some drama for the Man of Steel, the trailer barely mentions the fact that the Elite are supposed to be a new kind of brutal superhero. That trailer makes them out to be super-villains, which misses the nuance of the story. Oh well.
First Look at Super Best Friends Forever!
Super Best Friends Forever looks to be one of the cutest, funnest superhero cartoons ever. All thanks to the brilliant and adorable mind of Lauren Faust, the creative wizard behind My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I am a brony, by the way, and proud to admit it. So I’m really looking forward to what Faust can do with Batgirl, Supergirl and Wonder Girl in the new shorts that will debut as part of the DC Nation block this Saturday.
Here’s our first actual teaser clip!
What the heck is up with Batgirl?
Otherwise, it looks fantastic!!
Much Robining to Come
In a move sure to please, well, me, the June issue of Batman and Robin is going to feature something called ‘a meeting of the Robins’! Solicitations came out today for Batman and Robin #10, and they’re quite giddy. All of the former Robins – Dick, Jason, Tim and Damien – will be coming together for…some mysterious reason! And it looks like Tim Drake is going to get into a fight with Damien Wayne, the current Robin. So woot!
