He has a funny name, though.

First appeared ages ago ('86 I believe)in a Alan Moore one-shot story in Tales of GL Annual. Never used again until just recently during Sinestro Corps War. He's been an on again/off again player in GLC (and is currently in GL: Emerald Warriors).

And Alan Moore is mega pissed that a DC writer actually had the gall to use a character he created for DC which is owned by DC in a new DC Comics story.

Between him and Frank Miller, I don't know which of the two has fallen further off of the deep end. Sheesh...

Yes, I remember the story. In fact I read a couple of months ago.

For some reason I was sure that wasn't in continuity ...

The future predicitions were never in continuity, but the story that featured the predictions always was (as that story explained why Abin traveled by ship).

So technically Sodam Yat was predicited to exist in the Tales of the GL Annual and he made his 1st actual app during the SCW.

They should be paying royalties to Mr Moore then.

Anyway, enough with the GL. It's time to talk about Legion.

Phantom Girl walked in on Earth Man and Shadow Lass after they'd finished having sex. And then she has the audacity to get mad.

OK so I am all caught up on the new LoSH comic, and I am loving it! Artwork is hit or miss and I prefer the other artist over Cinar, can't think of his name right now, but it is still good. Earthman is really growing on me as a character and I love the Durlan Terrorist Subplot, can't wait to see where that leads! Next up is catching up on the Adventure Comics!

CountD: Greg, thank you for your insights.
Benderbrau: Greg: Unwrapping the riddles of the black man since 2006

Starlord: I swear if you were gay and I wasn't married we'd make the perfect fuck buddies.

Greg: I'd do many things. Coke is not one of them.
Benderbrau: Greg hates all things white.

Benderbrau: Emma, you could learn a thing or two from Greg. Greg does threesomes. That's bi done right.

Another artist? I thought Cinar had done all the issues so far.

My books are 3000 miles away right now, so I'm not sure but I think Cinar hasn't done a complete issue after #1. Portela has had a hand in most of them since on up to his 90% of the last issue.

Here's hoping that Portela (or someone else) continues to get the majority of the pages.
