Arkhamverse

I finally gave into my own absurd impulses and opened an Arkhamverse fan community for LJ. God. As if I didn't have enough to do already.

Anyhow, it's going to be news based, with reviews of the ongoing comic series, Arkham accessories, meta/discussion (such as the existence of Jason Todd in the Arkhamverse) as well as lighter topics, such as the Aaron Cash Facts.

Buuut I guess we'll see. arkhamverse is still a work in progress at this point.

  • Сб, 22:11: You know, by the EIGHTH time that round that I bloody lunged across the room to stop this one thug from trying to lob that
  • Сб, 22:13: fire extinguisher at my head, you'd think he'd do something else when he came to. Sheesh. Next time I'll batarang it and stop that shit

*coughsplutter* Holy crap this is hilarious! *wheeze*

...DC, make it happen. I miss Steph already, Babs just isn't the same.

what do you mean, stop plotting my Cass/Steph fic and move on with my life?

*splorfs and cracks up*

...my thoughts exactly, during that arc of the comics, haha. For those who aren't in the know? Kara (Supergirl) visits Steph at college. Kara has been watching too many college-life movies, and resolves to help Steph, uh, make the most of it. Long story short, it's very femslash-tastic and it ends with Steph and Kara fighting a couple-dozen Draculas.

No, I'm serious here. XD

Anyhow. I love Steph/Kara, but I can't get over the history Steph/Cass has. ;_;

More Arkham City stuff
Snow 9

At first I was excited when they said the Robin on Arkham City would be Tim Drake. With a Red Robin skin and everything!

But the more I hear about this AC!Robin, the more I'm convinced it's not Tim. Frankly I feel this Robin would have been better off as Jason, or hell, a whole new Robin. I feel like in the process of trying to make Robin edgy to the haters, they've taken away what made Tim such a great character.

This... Is probably the only thing I'm disappointed about in Arkham City. It's not a lot, but I can't reconcile this dissonance yet.

I'll give it a chance, though.

Note to self, quit fangirling comics and start writing moar. Good god, Zerrat. Get a hold of yourself.

...at least there's one good thing coming from the DC reboot. I'll be able to get on board the Flash and Green Lantern comics, haha. It's been a long wish of mine, and with so much canon it's been a bit daunting. I managed it with the Bat-fam, but ohmygod it took a lot of research.

Cosplay idea
Red Hood
zerrat

As some may recall, Liv and I are constructing a Jason Todd/Red Hood cosplay. Everything except the latex domino mask and the helmet is constructed. The toughest bits, to be sure.

If you look back through the cosplay tag, you can see my first take on the helmet, using shaped cardboard and paper mâché. It was a little too bulky, in order to keep it as one piece but still be able to remove it with ease.

It was okay as a first draft.

Second one had Liv make a mold using paperclay and duct tape. This one is alright, but there's a few flaws in the eye areas, and in the top areas. We split the mask in two so we could remove it easier and shape it better, but the top warped during the drying of the second paperclay layer. So we have to fix that, haha.

Also, need to get a small sander. Yay!

Ahem, I was going somewhere with this. Or was I? Maybe I'm just trying to make up for my emo post below.

Went to Melbourne today, and did the comic rounds. Seems that Alternate Worlds is moving locations (to Bayswater?!) and so I couldn't hit that one, but oh well? I managed a decent haul, in any case. Picked up the Red Robin Collections (1+2), plus a couple of the current ones (Red Robin #22-23), the latest Gotham City Sirens, and the latest Batman and Robin Reborn.

Spoilers for Red Robin, Gotham City Sirens and the latest Batman and Robin RebornCollapse )

New Bat-Game?
Red Hood

So word is that Warner Bros. have registered domain names for a Hush game. I'm going to admit that I'm biased, but I love Hush as a Bat-villain and I think he's a delightfully fucked up little sociopath.

Understandably, I am pumped at the idea that there could be a game (Arkham style!) based on this arc.

Words cannot describe how much I want this to be what I wish this will be. Also - please be Rocksteady that makes this game.

Red Hood Cosplay Construction Post I
Red Hood

I may construct my Red Hood/Jason Todd helmet today. Will need glue and paper and cardboard. *fistpump* And possibly paperclay but that might be getting ahead of myself.

We'll see how it goes, eh? XD

EDIT 12:30AM 21/1. Here are the oh-so-awesome results thus far. Includes pics and ref shots, plus burbling.Collapse )

It's been a fair while since my last update, so I figured I'd better get off my figurative arse and post something, if only for my peace of mind. *sheepish*

In the long period between my last post and today, I turned 21, I resumed university (yay, semester two...) and my car broke down and had to be sold. So now I'm using the family's leaky Holden Commodore, which guzzles petrol like there's a hole in the tank. Me? I'm just lucky to even HAVE a car to drive with.

But I loved my car. ;_;

Also, the Melbourne Anime Festival 2010 (aka Manifest) was on last weekend, so I blew a fair bit of the cash I'd gotten for my 21st birthday. Got the Gurren Lagann collection, a Raichu plushie, and a couple of Batman collected comics (Year One, Long Halloween, the Killing Joke, Arkham Asylum: Serious House on Serious Earth, and finally Hush. Really wanted to get Dark Victory and Under the Hood, but y'know.

Also cosplayed again this year, but went as DC anti-hero Rorschach from Watchmen. Awesome fun! Lots of photos, will be keeping him. Will also be trying to cosplay Jak from Jak 2, the series by Naughty Dog. I am actually a huge fan of that series, if that's surprising.

While watching the AMV Iron Chef judging I spotted an anime that caught my eye - it's called Black★Rock Shooter and I watched it yesterday. Fuckin' awesome. Really nice animation quality, excellent fight choreography, both epic and adorable and heartbreaking all at once.

Was very cool, and now I want to write fic. ;_;

I now ship Mato/Yomi, damnit... and BRS/Dead Master (see icon).

But yes, been on a rather huge Batman kick recently, after finishing Arkham Asylum on the PS3. Fed this with the DC animated film Under the Red Hood, lots of Batman movies and all that! It's been quite fun.

Also, I caught a cold from my girlfriend. I was just so lucky it only really started after Manifest, otherwise it would have been unbearable under the mask. Blergh. But it's turned fully fledged now, sore throat, coughing, stuffed nose, the works!
