Christ, I will never complain about plot-holes, OOCs, and fucked up timelines in manga ever again. I always forget just how much more things get screwed up when there are over a dozen writers/artists working on several series involving the same characters at different point in the characters' life. And don't even get me started on the alternative universes about the same characters. I mean there's 'Batgirl', 'Batman', 'Nightwing', 'Robin, 'Outsiders', and I haven't even began on the 'Teen Titans' yet. I don't have a damn clue just where each of these series is at in relation to each other. Continuity? What continuity?

No, not getting obsessed. Just interested in the newest Robin… the male one.

I love Batman, nevermind the wonky timelines, story leaps and that which critics have pointed out at a bazillion time - the so called homoerotic attraction between Bruce and his young charges. Er.

Still, it makes collecting the comics quite hard. Apart from a good number of the books not being available in Singapore (no Knightfall series at Kinokuniya? D00d!!), the timeline makes collecting them near impossible for someone who isn't obsessive enough to go tracking down Batman's entire history :D;; Maybe I'll find a good website or something that can set me straight. In the meantime, I may just bend and buy the trade editions from Amazon or something.

Avium now will send her recommendation of the sci-fi fantasy series 'Finder' to [livejournal.com profile] naanima. You've got to check it out - it helps tide me over while Elfquest 9 is enroute to the local bookstores:

I'm madly in LOVE with the Bats-family. It is the the fact that they care about each other, even if it is in a completely and utterly screwed up way. The so called homoerotic subtext makes me amused. I have my theories but I try to read the series with a clean mind. Beside Bruce is really hot with Catwoman.

Poor girl. I'm goining to try and see if they got some back issues of the ones I want after my exams.

Will read soon. Honest. Need to do exams first.
