Remember when the Joker became an Iranian Ambassador in Death of the Family so he could gain diplomatic immunity after killing Jason Todd?
Well, here's #markhamill 's version of that moment- from 1996's Legend of Robin audio drama!

I feel like such a nerd for admitting this, but I've been using the Tennant floor scrubber at the warehouse so often that I've put together a playlist for it.
And guess which three songs are first on the list? That's right- Terran 1, 2, and 3 from Starcraft.

Just for the record, this is actually a really good, if pretty loose adaptation of the first New Avengers arc by Brian Michael Bendis.
It's just that this amazingly dense line stood out to me so much that I spent a good chunk of my lunch break replaying the scene so I could try and understand it.

"Bob infused his dual identity character with his own attributes: goodness, kindness, generosity, intelligence, integrity, courage, purity of spirit, a love of all mankind."
Apparently humility wasn't among those traits.

But which version? I remember buying this at a secondhand media store to show my friends, only to realize it was the censored version.

Ever try Freedom Force? It's available for a pittance on GoG, and still holds up as a tactical superhero squad RPG.

By B/W coloring, I mean that Force Works has pencils/inks, whereas Doom's IV was fully colored by Extreme Studios, but I had to tint them grayscale for the printer.

I do find it kind of hilarious how Linkara described a sad image of someone make copies of Doom's IV during his review, and then in a weird way, I became that person.
The Force Works ashcan has B/W coloring, but the Doom's IV book has a lot more behind the scenes material and fully colored heroes.

Made a pair of custom ashcans of 90s books so I could have a physical reference for my own preview books: specifically Force Works and Doom's IV #1/2.
I know ashcans are sometimes old hat, but I feel it really goes help me develop my craft and short story skills- like Kyle Higgins suggested.

Who in their right minds at Marvel thought that Spider-Man One More Day needed a hardcover treasury edition? In the 2020s, no less?!

I felt the same way when I blew our cover by accident in a Days of Future Past campaign.
Hearing the GM describe how the roof opened up and the innocent refugees we were getting to know got flash fried into skeletons still shakes me to my very core when I think about it.
