I got thanked on the Best of the Web again. The airbus joke was mine. (Yes, again. I’ve previously sent in The Taiwan joke and the time capsule Onion link. I don’t even remember which items I submitted on this page and this one, so don’t ask.)
Willingham speaks out on Batman 644 controversy (SPOILERS BIG TIME)
Batman 644 reveals the real killer of Stephanie Brown (Robin nee Spoiler). It turns out it was Dr. Leslie Thompkins, who killed her just to try to send Batman a message.
