because I have nothing else to watch

[phosfate]

After enduring heykidzcomix' incessant nagging*, I found the Brisco County DVD set last night. Watched the pilot with commentary. I am a better human being now.

Mom had a giant girlcrush on Dixie Cousins, and it's hard to blame her. She also always felt it necessary to point out that Brisco's dad was buried on a hill "for the drainage," then cackle like a fiend. Strange woman.

So far, the best thing is learning that the Rocket Car was a functioning vehicle that could shoot 30-foot jets of flame. Carlton Cuse volunteered to ride it back to the roundhouse after shooting, which must surely have been the best thing ever.

I've only seen scans of 52, but that sounds like as good a justification as any.

THERE ARE FIFTY-TWO PEOPLE YOU SHOULD WATCH OUT FOR AND THE CLOCKS WERE STOPPED AT 11:52 AND THERE ARE 52 VEILS OF HEAVEN AND 52 HAIRS IN RALPH'S SPOOKY BEARD AND BY THE WAY DID WE MENTION 52 IS AN IMPORTANT RECURRING NUMBER?

It's like they thought that the ratings would go through the roof if Jack Bauer had to fight two dozen terrorists with two dozen different chemical and biological weapons in four and a score exotic Midwestern locations. Comics: not just for kids! Also for stupids!

I just know that the History of the DCU backups filled me with a sort of despairing rage. And Wonder Girl and Superboy-Dead suck.
