This might have been the greatest week in the history of comics.  I mean, in quantity as well as quality, there was excellent stuff all over the place.  This week, we got three of the best comics DC publishes, an highly entertaining kung fu comic (with a Whirling Devil Dervish and Foothammer Thunder Strike!), one of the best team books out there right now, three new series from Archaia, which consistently puts out good stuff, some very good espionage books, and my favorite book on the market at this moment.  It’s an embarrassment of riches!  So, what’s out there for the discerning reader?  What should you spend your money on instead of buying Aunt Ida another Matlock DVD and your brother a leaf blower that he’ll never use?  It’s Christmas - treat yourself!  As an added bonus, we ask if Dan DiDio should be the subject of new loathing, or if he’s just caving to fans’ desires!

Man, whatever these people do, they shouldn’t give this guy what he wants!  He’ll definitely use it to break through a wall and fly away, all the while shouting, “Thou canst hold me!  Taste the wrath of Mjolnir!”

Well, technically, we have to call it a “holiday” party.

Just over a year ago, I stumbled across a thread on DC’s boards in which a bunch of people were throwing out names of people who knew Batman’s secret identity. However, no one had bothered to try to compile all the suggestions into one neat, orderly list, to make life easier for those of us who were coming in late and wanted to make sure we weren’t duplicating previous suggestions.

My duty was clear! I started cutting-and-pasting, and sorting the names alphabetically, and inserting several more names from my own memory of Batman lore. Then I posted my “First Draft” on several forums, accepted constructive criticism, and offered a more detailed “Second Draft” the following day. Then I waited just over a year before going back and rereading the further criticisms I got at the time, and doing a little extra research, and modifying things until I had a “Third Draft” I was ready to show the world.
