Awesome, glad you dug it! Means a lot, really. Glad to know it's not all just me imposing my personal feelings on a character which might or might not really be there. And you're totally right on Johns; like I said, there's this earnestness with his writing that even when he fails, you can tell it wasn't from lack of sincere love for the characters.
Yeah, JSA is increasingly "ehh." But I must admit, I'm mightily intrigued by Gog as a character. I kind of love how we're all clearly waiting for the other shoe to drop, and how the heroes are honestly not dumb enough to let their guard down, but Gog still hasn't really done anything outright evil yet. It's a nice tense twist on an old superhero trope.
I love that you have an Elektra motivational poster on your wall. Love it. Did you see back when they made officially licensed motivational posters with Frank and Magneto? Or are those the ones you mean?
Act now, angst later. Exactly. Love it. That's what heroes do. That's why we never saw the amazing adventures of SuperHamlet.
I've gotta see that Carter moment, when you get the chance.
