Preview of Coming Attractions: Valentine’s Rant

Time for some Superteam Smackdown, live from the The Correctness's new Herodome, located in sunny downtown Newville. The tailgates are up, the beer is cold, the snacks are carby, it's time for some smackdown! We have 8 classic superhero teams fighting it out to see who can claim the title. This week, we have The Mighty Avengers, taking on Canada's own Alpha Flight. Read More...

SWM seeks SF from space. Superheroes and Ninjas also welcome, or anyone who moves like a dancer in a slow motion hail of bullets/lasers. Ideally you are human, but if you are an alien in human form and would be willing to slum it with an earthling that would be good too. Aliens particularly welcome if you were planning an invasion of earth, but fall in love with me because “you never thought you could feel this way before” and prevent the invasion force from destroying my backwater meaningless planet. Perhaps you were confused and aroused by the sensations provided to you by your new carbon based form? Other aliens welcome: Slave women from planets with nebulous/gaseous thought-entity overlords- I will be more than happy to tell you the answer to the eternal question “what is this thing called love?”. Most non-humans from Original Series Star Trek welcome, but aliens from the rest of the Star Trek franchise are almost unanimously ugly.

Last week the DC relaunch #1 of Catwoman was the object of much controversy for a non-nude sex scene between Catwoman and Batman. I've always said that comics as a medium are not a child's art form. This without further comment is the picture that appeared in my head as people got upset to an irrational level about a story aimed at adults.
