While I always appreciate a Samuel L. Jackson callback, I've often wondered why "hold on to your butts" is considered sound advice in a pending crisis.

It seems that, if stuff is about to go down, your butt would be pretty low on the list of "things to secure." I mean, it's not going anywhere.

In the back of my mind, I always harbored the secret hope that a 65 year old Rickey Henderson was going to suit up for another season, and steal another 200 bases on these whippersnappers.

Rest in Peace to the best damn player I ever saw.

Shifting gears a bit, here's the first in a series of posts about DC Characters That Should Have their Own Multi-Generational Legacy Characters: Doll Man and Doll Woman.

Their multi-generational offspring should be ersatz versions of Barbie, GI Joe, She-Ra, Jem, the Micronauts, etc.

UDCCTAGWCTIALREAWST (#4 in an ongoing series): Amethyst.

Amy Winston is a normal teenage girl who has just put away childish things.

But then she finds out that she's really a pretty pink princess from a magical land with unicorns.

Can she overcome her cringe in time to embrace her destiny?

And yes, this feed is going to mostly talk about weird DC Comics characters for a while...

UDCCTAGWCTIALREAWST (#3 in an Ongoing Series): G'Nort

Rather than giving a title to another one of 19 or so human American Green Lanterns, why not toss a bone to this mutt?

He's a cross between Groo the Wanderer and a GL. Plus he's an adorable doggie. He practically howls "take my money!"

Unused DC Characters that a Gifted Writer Could Turn into a Long-Running, Eisner-Award Winning Solo Title (#2in an Ongoing Series): Prez Rickard

Picture the West Wing, but set squarely in the DCU, where trade negotiations with Bialya often have to take a backseat to Khundian invasions.

A flamboyantly gay space witch? How is this guy *not* DC's version of the Doctor?

Hi there, Bluesky folks. Anyone wanna talk about DC comics, Doctor Who, or Star Trek?
