You had me at Hebrew and Japanese... Finally, an episode where I could have detroyed you thanks to my larger knowledge of manga, Japanese culture and art.  Plus, my pronounciation is ten times better.

I agree that the Joker is the best villian, but one must consider sheer volume and quality in comparison to others.  He's one of our oldest villians culturally and most celebrated outside of comics in other media.  Others don't get a fair shake because of lack of recognition. I agree with Josh and Conor about how we fear that which cannot be explained by reason or logic.  ...

This episode was damn funny.  The Marvel Restaurant?!  I still have my milkshake collectors mug.  I think I got the Green Goblin Peanut Butter milkshake. 

J.A., welcome to the world of writing.  Procrastinating is a tough thing to stop, but as a form of perfectionism and fear it is important to do so.  I look forward to the first non rejection letter.

1) Why stay near Navy Pier when the Sanctuary of Chicago is available in Chicago?  That being my apartment. 2) I adhere to Tim Burton's quote about trailers and conventions.  When he was a little boy Mr. Burton enjoyed going to movies where he only knew the title and nothing else.  Didn't it seem that people used to complain about spoilers and how trailers are too long and give...

@ Josh--Like Gotham, Chicago is a horrible place to live.

With all the hyperboles and well deserved praise being tossed about, I congratulate the three of you for being unique and bringing in a "Jurassic Park 3" connection to "The Dark Knight." Josh's comment should go on every DVD cover. As for the next villian, I'm holding out for King Tut, Egghead, Book Worm, or the greatest Batman enemy there is...The Schumacher. 

Captain (a.k.a. Conor), I totally agree with your top five and have read all of them.  The Killing Joke is one of the best graphic novels ever.  I also remembered the disturbing image of the Joker beating the #$%^ out of Robin, but had forgotten he was Iran's representative.  That was a strange story arc.  And when one thinks about it, who better then to repr...

I liked this, but not nearly as much as you.  Here's a possible #5 for "things that don't quite work," we see how Bruce Wayne gets every $#%^ thing in order to become Batman.  I just didn't care.  Here's him getting the Bat Cave, here's him getting the Bat Suit, but in the end it just becomes irritating.  Other superhero films can sum up people dis...

I would read any comic with Swamp Thing growing weed.  This might be the best comic ever.
