Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Saw New Mutants at the drive in. It wasn’t terrible, and I think it might have a chance if the young adult crowd is into it.

Heard about Boseman through text while watching the credits. Black Panther was the other half of the double feature.

The 35th Anniversary set of the Akira manga was on sale the other day so I bought it. It was delivered today and the way it was packaged was fairly ridiculous. There was the box it was shipped to me in, inside that was a box that was shipped to the distribution center which had a label on it saying that it shouldn't be unpacked. Inside that box was another box that also said it wasn't to be unpacked. Finally inside THAT box was the actual box that the manga comes in.

This is good because if they didn't Amazon would throw the entire thing in a padded envelope and call it a day.

I'm reading Batman: Dark Nights: Metal and I have a question. If all the evil Batmans come from the dark multiverse, and all the universes of the dark multiverse are created out of the fears of people in the main universe, how is the Aquaman Batman a woman?

I guess I can understand Batman coming up with some way to become King of Atlantis, and being afraid of doing that, which would spawn a dark universe where it happened, but that means the plan must've also involved him becoming a woman? If Bruce Wayne turned himself into a woman he could take over Atlantis?

This is likely more thought than anyone involved put into it, but at some point the Dark Multiverse were mirror images of "Not Dark" Multiverses, and So Earth 11 is a Regular Multiverse planet where literally everyone's gender is flippped so you have Batwoman and Superwoman and Wonder Man in the Justice League.

Therefore "The Drowned" is from Earth Negative 11, and is the deepest fear of that universe's Batwoman.

This is kind of consistent (though not terribly so) across all of the Dark Knights:

Earth 1: The home of Earth One graphic novels (aka movie pitches)
Earth -1: The Devastator, Batman becomes Doomsdays

Earth 12: Batman Beyond universe
Earth -12: The Merciless universe, where Batman is God of War

Earth 22: Kingdom Come universe
Earth -22: Batman Who Laughs (??)

Earth 32: Mash-em-up universe based on that Elseworlds where Batman Gets a Green Lantern Ring
Earth -32: Batman gets a Green Lantern ring, but evil

Earth 44: The Justice League are just all Doc Magnus's Metal Men, but also the Justice League
Earth -44: The Murder Machine, Batman turns into evil Cyborg

Earth 52: Unknown Mystery Universe!
Earth -52: Batman becomes an evil Flash

And then eventually they just stopped ascribing evil Batmans to specific universe and started saying there are hundreds or thousands of Dark Multiverses even though there are still only 52 'regular' universes, though I guess The Batmanhattan Who Laughs, The Darkest Knight has killed/eaten almost all of the regular multiverses so they can make there be more later.

So the evil Batmans predate Metal? Because in the Metal series they say there's an infinite number of dark universes, and they specifically call out Devastator as being what Batman could've done if he went crazy experimenting with the Doomsday Virus. And since the whole thing deals heavily with Batman's own fear of failure, and characters losing faith in him because of or having faith in him despite these secret fears of his. So if they're actually fears of completely different Bruce Waynes from alternate universes, that makes no sense.

Earth -12 makes sense when you realize that Batman becomes Ares after killing him for killing Wonder Woman, who he was in a relationship with, and Justice League/JLU had a running will they or won't they plot line with Bruce and Diana.

No, I'm right. Batman's whole thing is that he spends 30 years trapped in timelines or hallucinations or whatever where he fails, but he's able to overcome it and find hope again. And Nightwing, after seeing all the evil Batmans loses hope in Bruce, which is contrasted with Superman who still believes in him. All of that is strengthened if all the evil Batmans are versions of Batman. If Batman overcomes them, it proves that the him who didn't renounce his moral code is stronger than the hims who did. It makes Nightwin'g's despair way more believable if the evil Batmans who have been kill people are different versions of his Batman. And it makes Superman's faith in his friend more inspiring if he has seen all the different horrible things his friend could've become.

But if they aren't, if they're all just evil versions of different people? That doesn't strengthen it at all. This is what would've happened if someone like Bruce (but not Bruce) had failed in a way particular to their situation in their universe. That is way weaker, thematically.

But it is Bruce, just a version of him that's a woman, outside of the genders being flipped on her world all the bits that mattered were the same, and every other Dark Knight we see is pretty close to the baseline Bruce until the point of deviance occurs

Possibly Richard McGuire's Here, from Raw Magazine?

If not, Chris Ware definitely did some sequences inspired by Here, as did apparently Alan Moore.
