Battle for the John Buys Comics
Johnathan | April 23, 2009
Azrael: Death’s Dark Knight No 2 of 3 You know, this isn’t half bad. I didn’t pay too much attention to Azrael the first time out but he had some interesting history, with the secret religious order and the mental conditioning and so forth (and wouldn’t it have been a great idea for DC to [...]
Justify Your Existence: Batman Villain Edition
Johnathan | April 18, 2009
Hello and welcome to Saturday here at Living Between Wednesdays! Today we’ll be playing a game of "Justify Your Existence", the game in which super-folk of yesteryear tell us, in their own words, exactly why they did what they did. This week we’re going to be talking to some Batman villains of yore, and in [...]
Breaking the Glass Ceiling…With Nunchucks!
Tiina | April 17, 2009
Temping agencies have discovered a way to market themselves as something other than a last resort for broke artists and musicians. Meet EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT IRIS! Sure a guy can dream of being a cowboy or an astronaut or heck, Superman, but us ladies don’t have such high hopes. Iris is your average executive assistant: hot, [...]
This Week’s Haul: Superman looks good in a uniform.
Rachelle | April 9, 2009
A bit of a light week for me, but an awesome one nonetheless. World of New Krypton #2 I would say that the awesome Gary Frank covers are a tease, but I actually really love Pete Woods’ art. So it’s win-win. And you know what else? Greg Rucka and James Robinson are doing a great job [...]
John Buys Comics, the Saga Continues
Johnathan | April 8, 2009
Battle for the Cowl No. 2 Okay. So Batman is (dead? missing? a caveman?)and everyone even vaguely associated with the Batman franchise is running around Gotham and some of them are dressing up like Batman and some or all of the inmates have been sprung from Arkham Asylum (again) and Commissioner Gordon has to deal [...]

Henchman Fashion File: The Birdmaster’s Feathery Thugs
Johnathan | April 4, 2009
Hello folks and welcome to my first Saturday post for Living Between Wednesdays, where I share all of the odd things that I have found whilst reading hundreds and hundreds of comics from any number of metallic ages. Mad props to Rachelle for organizing the whole thing (though why she wouldn’t take my suggestion to [...]
John buys comics: April 1, 2009
Johnathan | April 2, 2009
Battle for the Cowl: Man-Bat I have decided to buy all of this ‘Battle for the Cowl’ malarky so that I can warn people if it sucks. I figure that there are going to be about a fifth as many issues to buy as there were of Countdown and at least this time i have [...]
What if Batman was Bruce Wayne and vice versa?
Rachelle | March 31, 2009
I love nothing more than that moment where I am reading an old comic and something tips me off that this issue is going to be amazing. Batman #303 definitely has one of those moments. In this comic, Batman gets knocked on the head and gets all confused. He thinks that Bruce Wayne is the [...]
