I'm sure none of you are wondering, "Gee, Heffie, could there ever be a Two-Face action figure so lame and stupid that even a hardcore Harvey Dent obsessive like you wouldn't ever buy it?"
Why yes, all of you who weren't asking that question. Yes there is. Of course, the Jason Todd figure ain't much better, and I'm still not feeling the stripes on the new Batgirl costume. Also, the new Azrael gets a figure? Already? Really?
Don't mind me, I'm on edge with this being the first night of the Vancouver Fringe Festival. We're both feeling really stressed about this one, for a number of reasons. Me, much of it is just being thrust back into the cliquey and somewhat-elitist nature of the Canadian circuit. One of the great things about Indy Fringe was the feeling of being on more or less equal footing with all the other performers. Now, I'm back amid the rockstars.
Hopefully henchgirl will get even more stressed and worried than I am. She has spider-sense, you see. The more she paces and needs to smoke a whole pack of cigarettes, the better the show goes. I can't explain it. Either she senses the audience, or more likely she acts as my neurosis sponge, leaving me to concentrate on having a great show.
Between the two of us, she may be dead of a massive exploding ulcer by tonight. I will weep for henchgirl. And then I will start accepting applications for new henchpersons, preferably of the girl persuasion, for my 2010 tour.
Sorry, sorry, li'l joke. I have to distract myself with either humor, or more geek-driven facepalm and rage. I mean, seriously, DC Comics, what the hell are IS this crap?!
