If you’ve followed me and what I write about for even a smidgen of time you’ll know I love cartoons and super heroes. Even more so when they’re combined. As a kid I watched tons of Batman: The Animated Series, X-Men, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but looking back I can’t help but notice what boys clubs they were. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVED those shows and still do, but I might not have been such a tomboy had I been shown examples of girls who could both beat the bad guys and go on shopping sprees with their girl friends. When I was a kid I was convinced you had to pick one over the other. And I wanted to kick butt which meant nothing “girly” for me.

Thankfully, I believe we’re making progress away from such contrived gender stereotypes.

Batgirl by Stanley “Artgerm” Lau

Seeing how beautiful and awesome this piece is only reminds me of how in to Stephanie’s Batgirl I was getting right before is was all over.

It’s a bummer. A serious bummer.

(via rudimentarymydear)

Every new number one of DC’s big “New 52” relaunch has been released. Of those new 52 issues I picked up 11, 

  • Justice League
  • Batgirl
  • Detective Comics
  • Stormwatch
  • Demon Knights
  • Batwoman
  • Batman
  • Birds of Prey
  • Nightwing
  • Wonder Woman
  • Aquaman

I’ve given each one a short, little review which can be found below the cut. As expected, I mostly picked titles I already knew I was going to like. What can I say, even at $2.99 a piece all 52 titles would have totally broken the bank. Plus, was anyone actually excited for a book where Harley Quinn looked like a Juggalette?

If you’re interested in what I thought of these eleven titles, again, read my mini-reviews below. Feel free to tell me what you thought about these books, tell me what books I didn’t pick up that I simply must. Hell, you can even tell me if I’m full of shit for adoring Aquaman. In which case I’ll have to slap ya, but I’ll still listen to what you have to say.

Minimalist Batgirls? Hell to the yes. Cassie’s is the best.

Because of the huge response to those minimalist Batgirls, I’m considering making prints! Here’s an idea of what they’d look like. Leave a message in my ask if you’d be interested!

Prints, did you say? ::throws money::

I need a poster of this. Now.

Beautiful! And I want a poster, too.

This is so badass. Can this become a new series? I mean, DC’s already shakin’ up the house, I think there’s room in the rebooting for this too.
