I have love -hate relationship with Batman 66 and Batman silver age. I like the story of Dark Serious Batman and Light Colourful Batman. But after hearing interview Denny O'neill interview which he said you like Light and Colourful Batman when you're kids but when you become older and mature you don't care for that version of Batman. Remember folks, Denny O'neill bring back Batman to serious golden age storytelling. His Batman run is very underrated which feature classic story involve Ra's Al Ghul. All people remember nowadays is Frank Miller TDKR and Batman Year One but forget Denny O'neill run on Batman

O'neill has no right to decide what you ought to enjoy.

@jonny_anonymous: even if everyone on CV bought every Valiant comic, Valiant still wouldn't have a great place on the charts.

Though I do plan on trying Valiant out with the mini by Lemire, Kindt and Rivera coming out.

It's nice to see Axis not succeed as well as other events. How cool would it be to see it drop out of the top ten?

@saren: no, I don't know that -__-

@batwatch: All that does is prove that the stat is exaggerated by most. As that other fellow's article proves, there is still a gap, not as significant, but men clearly make more based on their gender alone. That's still f*cked up.

Actually, it proves nothing because it is within the statistical range of error, and as Saren said, range of error is in every study.

Saying women get payed seventy-seven cents to the dollar of man's earning for the same work is a lie, and it's a lie oft repeated by feminists.

Where did I say the 77% stat was accurate?

One guy said it was in the statistical range of error in his study. Different studies have different ranges of error. His statement does not speak for all studies done on the matter. An important question to ask then is the "error" in favor of the men in every single study done? That should go to show that it is not just error.

This is from wikipedia, but the source is legitimate: "in 2010, an economist testified to the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee that studies "always find that some portion of the wage gap is unexplained" even after controlling for measurable factors that are assumed to influence earnings."

And I really hope you don't buy that rubbish that the gap is just "margin of error."

@zeeguy91: if you interpreted that as me saying that all writers writing their first comic are editorial tools that is not what I meant. But a writer writing his first comic, which also happens to be an event? Yeahhhh... Something tells me that this guy is going to have zero creative control.

@jmarshmallow: Most of the time in the New Testament, God the Father is described as infinitely powerful, infinitely wise, infinitely present, but also infinitely loving.
What I meant to say is I personally cannot reconcile the idea of an all loving God being so petty as to stoop to murdering people's loved ones to make them more faithful. Using unfortunate situations to bring about something good is heading into "ends and means" territory, which is something I think God ought to be above, as those type of actions are not ethical in a deontological sense. Christian ethics are inherently deontological, not utilitarian, so God ascribing to utilitarian ethics would be a contradiction.
