The characters were so wonderful together! I loved seeing each of them interact with one another, no matter what type of situation they were in. For example, when Krampus was speaking to Jesse, he gave us a bunch of history in such an interesting way that really helped to get readers caught up to speed. The author did a great job explaining things. I loved how this story related back to Norse mythology! It was so interesting to see this fun twist on certain characters and what their dynamics with one another were in this instance. ![]()

As Fairbairn explained to Comics Alliance, not only did Burnham swap all the scenes by other artists with his own material, but he and Fairbairn changed Batman's flashback costume to the classic Neal Adams blue and gray, complete with bat oval and blue trunks. ![]() Another noticeable change is that in the flashback scenes of Batman's early meetings with Talia Al Ghul, the Dark Knight isn't wearing the Neal Adams-designed costume from the stories in which Talia first appears.Ĭouple that with the fact that several additional artists had to pitch in to ensure "Batman Incorporated" didn't fall behind schedule, and you can see why main penciller Chris Burnham and colorist Nathan Fairbarin decided to make some slight adjustments when the series was collected in DC's oversized Absolute format. Already a comic book writing legend, Morrison brought a love of Silver Age Batman up to date with modern sensibilities and. Jason Todd's hair color, for instance, which Grant Morrison had reestablished as being naturally red in "Batman and Robin," is made black again, while Commissioner Gordon reverts to his younger, red-haired appearance. Grant Morrison’s DC Comics span a number of characters and nearly all corners of the DC Multiverse, but due to its complex excellence, Morrison’s most well-known contribution may always be his six years on Batman. ![]() ![]() This leads to some changes in Volume 2 of "Batman Incorporated," albeit largely cosmetic. ![]() ![]() STORI telling is Tori's chance to finally tell her side of the tabloid-worthy life she's led, and she talks about it all: her decadent childhood birthday parties, her nose job, her fairy-tale wedding to the wrong man, her so-called feud with her mother. Yet years later the name Tori Spelling too often closed-and sometimes slammed-the same doors it had opened.

She lets us hear the voice of the people as revealed in the other "declarations" of 1776: the local resolutions - most of which have gone unnoticed over the past two centuries - that explained, advocated, and justified Independence and undergirded Congress's work. In Maier's hands, the Declaration of Independence is brought close to us. Maier describes the transformation of the Second Continental Congress into a national government, unlike anything that preceded or followed it, and with more authority than the colonists would ever have conceded to the British Parliament the great difficulty in making the decision for Independence the influence of Paine's Common Sense, which shifted the terms of debate and the political maneuvers that allowed Congress to make the momentous decision. ![]() It is truly "American Scripture," and Maier tells us how it came to be - from the Declaration's birth in the hard and tortuous struggle by which Americans arrived at Independence to the ways in which, in the nineteenth century, the document itself became sanctified.

Fleming’s goal to corrupt me from an early age with his Bond-ish ways. The Chitty movie was produced by Albert Broccoli, a name well-known to Bond movie aficionados. You doubt? The book Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, on which the movie was based, was written by none other than Bond’s creator Ian Fleming. ![]() Yes, my first movie was Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, the unsung 6th James Bond movie, and the only James Bond musical for kids. Not long afterward, we bought the soundtrack album, and my sister and performed a scene from the movie to the great amusement of our parents.
