It's All Your Fault

This past couple weeks, I've spent the bulk of my time on the web reading and writing about comics, I've gone into comic book stores on four seperate occasions - probably doubling my the number of times I've ever been in one - I stayed at work for an hour after I clocked out in order to finish reading reading a comic book (the only other time I've ever done that for was Scott Westerfeld's Uglies) and I've spent far too much money (that I don't have) on comic books.

I just want to say that it's all your fault. Completely and totally your fault. I used to be perfectly contect reading just manga and the occasional compilation in the graphic novel section - no longer. So, I repeat: it's all your fault.

Just sayin'.

So my evil plan was successful...

Mickle said...

yes, very.

So far anyway - we'll see how long this sticks. I'm pretty notorious for jumping from one thing to another. But I've never stopped being into any type of books before so....

I have no evil plan. (Am lackey)

However, I'm pleased to see that Ragnell's evil plan worked perfectly.

Ragnell said...

Don't listen to her, it's just part of an elaborate plan to set me up for the fall when Wonder Woman takes us down.

Yes Master, whatever you say Master. I live by Master's will.

(While she's getting taken down by Wonder Woman, I'm going off to seduce a Green Lantern or two. I like my men stupid.)

Ragnell said...

You butt!! Take that back!!

(Little does Kali know that I targeted the Amazing Amazon for a reason. If I'm going down, anyone with me is going under the golden rope they try to shift the blame.)

kalinara said...

Yes Master, I take back everything you want me to.

(Damn, foiled again. Oh well, will have to convince pretty but stupid Lanterns to take her down first.)

Mickle said...

"Don't listen to her"

Of course not - weren't you two saying elsewhere that everyone is scared of Ragnell when they should be scared of Kalinara? I know better than to mess with either of you.

And, um, apparently I really need to start reading Green Lantern.

I admit to nothing. *bats eyelashes*

Besides, it's silly to be more scared of me! I'm *pink*! She writes insightful feminist essays, I write hot planet-on-planet action.

Hmm, that might prove her point better than mine.

And yes. Attractive men who are kind of dumb, with plentiful ass shots. :-) It's great!

It was worth a try! :-)
