In Brightest Day: Joffrey Baratheon

(WARNING: This is up to A Clash of Kings and season 2 of Game of Thrones. I know he gets worse, but I know enough about Joffrey to know exactly what to say about him. Want to know what I think about him? Jump on over. Oh and TW: Incest)

In Brightest Day: Tyrion and the Lannisters

(Note: I’m just finished with A Clash of Kings, so if Tyrion ends up killing everyone later on in a drunken rage, don’t tell me kthxbai. Oh, and TW: rape and incest.)

As I’m working through both A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones, I’ve come to realize that Tyrion Lannister is the only Lannister I don’t absolutely loathe, and with good reason.

Despite being a booze-guzzling, sex-driven dwarf in a world of “noble and strong men,” Tyrion is a better person than most of the main characters. And Tyrion is definitely one of the most compelling characters in the series.

Post-San Diego Comic Con: Superman/Batman and its Implications

(WARNING: Man of Steel spoilers. So, you know, if you won’t want to be spoiled, go do something else.)

Let me get this out of the way first: I could not be more excited about the prospect of a Superman/Batman live-action movie. Batman is my favorite comic story, and Superman is just awesome because he’s Superman. Don’t question it.

But with excitement comes fear. Absolute fear of how badly Zack Snyder can screw this up. But there is one quick, clean, and easy way to fix my fears.
