Scans Daily, Thank You

This, just made my fucking day.  Thank you so much.

I’m sorry but Bruce Wayne is creepy. He just comes off in this as creepy.

That Beep beep beep in the middle of the second scan? That’s not a gotham police contact. That’s a molestation warning device. Nightwing gave it to him, for times when Bruce gets handsy.

Run Tim, RUN!

UK Pictures

I fully intend to update Flikr today. I recently got back from a trip to the UK, but it was for work, so I didn’t get to ‘site-see’ as I’d hoped. I couldn’t get in to see the King Tut exhibit, mainly because it’s going back to Egypt soon [permanently] and so everyone is buying a ticket in London. ((>_<))

I had one day to walk around, [I HATE THE TUBES] give me the NYC subway system any day.

Oh, and I want take this moment to express my anger at the British film, music, media, and television industry for giving the world this impression that all your men are attractive. WTF. I was there near 10 days and didn’t see one good-looking guy. Where’d all the eye-candy go, to Ireland?

So I’m getting them off my camera now, and you can check them out in my Flikr account.

Soap Box Derby.

But first…some things noticed around the nets …

Yaoi House will publish the ‘In the Headmasters Chamber’ manga, illustrated by artist Van Duran. According to the artist at her y! page, she seems hopeful because Kira has announced that she’s going back to writing yaoi—I wonder if she’s seen the dramafest that ensued since that journal entry by Kira.

Also—the Boytoons mystery is solved! Some time ago, my RSS feed stopped updating Boytoons Magazine. I couldn’t figure out why until I went to blogger and saw the ‘this might be objectionable content’ nag screen. [If it’s on my feed, then I know its content; I shouldn’t have to decide each time they make a post, if I want to read it because it might offend me.] :/ I took it off my RSS feed because it no longer updated [likely because of this static page by blogger.] Well, BTM is back, and not at Blogger. Also, I know from the traffic that Boytoons sends my way, that a large majority of their readers come from countries that actively filter out ‘objectionable’ sites. Something like ‘boytoons’ doesn’t set off content filters the way a static blogger screen might. The sheer number of traffic that boystoons mag has from countries like China, Iran, Pakistan, India, and Syria, is amazing–I know they get this traffic, because they send it here via linkblogging, and my stats-counters picks it up. ((^_^)) I noticed a sharp decline in that sent-over traffic in the last few months, I assumed because they were no longer updating…but this was not the case. Those static screens might help Blogger steer clear of responsibility, but I suspect they also catch the eye of governmental content-filters, and that’s never cool. :/

I’ve been getting seriously good recs for this Pawprints series from Ann Cain. Admittedly, I wasn’t a huge fan of titles like Man’s Best Friend by Kazusa Takashima, or Master! by Laura Yokoshima, but I will check out both Pawprints novels [the second is called Pawprints 2: Second Nature] by Ann Cainashima, Both eBooks are available through publisher Loose Id.

Also…I picked up my HC edition of The Resurrection of Ra’s al Ghul. It’s a thing of beauty, and I must admit that Ra’s, in his younger days, was a hottie. The artists rendering of ‘young Ra’s’ rivaled Yasuhiro Nightow’s Balladbird Lee. That’s saying something. 0_0. Of course, there’s plenty of spendex manflesh to go around in this one–it features Nightwing, Robin, and of course– Damian Wayne. Despite being a teen, he’s rather hot–particularly in the hands of certain illustrators, which makes for some conflicting fan-isms. Some illustrators in this book depicted Damian as the boy he is – it was like watching a child in an adventure story, while other illustrators pumped up the teen with typical over-idealized ‘health’ given to various young males in the DCU…and makes him quite attractive. If you like em REEL YUNG, you’ll like Damian Wayne as illustrated by Freddie Williams, Don Kramer, or Tony Daniel. If you want the kid to be a kid, stick with David Lopez [who BTW, is responsible for that gorgeous young-man Ra's!], Jason Pearson, or David Baldeon.

NOW, ONTO THE SOAP BOX…
