Hey
estimatdprophet, you said to give you a heads-up when the new Gotham Central story arc started up, and here it is. Well, actually I phone-posted it last night, but no one was bored enough to transcribe it, so here you go. And boy howdy is it starting with a bang (literally and figuratively) -- shades of not one but two of the all-time great Homicide storylines.
Two words: clean shoot.
Crispus Allen and Renee Montoya are what Pembleton and Bayliss would have been if Frank weren't a dick and Tim weren't a wuss. *warm fuzzies for the partner love*
Or possibly what Beau and Kay would have been if Beau weren't a total fuckup.
Okay, for my own idle curiosity, how many of you have I gotten hooked on Homicide and/or Gotham Central? Inquiring minds want to know.
EDIT: If you don't know what the hell I'm talking about, check this entry:

I don't um ...
read ... comics.
I know, I know! This can get me tar and feathered in some circles, stoned in others, considered the local LJ pariah by still others ...
Or all of the above.
But still. I do not read graphic novels and I am damn proud of it!
Okay. Maybe that's a little overboard. Let's just say I never got into em. More copies for you, then!
