I'm super-tired this week, so if I'm spouting nonsense and/or using verbiage and syntax usually found only in 19th Century novels (a weird habit I have sometimes when I'm tired,) then that's why! 😅
As is inevitable from time to time, this week is one of those instances where the only things I have to present to you, my dearest nerdlets, is that found in the 'other stuff' category.
As always, I blame Loki.
Other Stuff
For International Women's Day, Marvel gave us this awesome short video about super-heroines :)
(Warning: flashing images)
There's not one, singular, lonely, review, but TWO reviews of the Batman YA book, Batman: Nightwalker by Marie Lu, for you this week, my eager nerdlets.
Georgiana @ Carmen's Reading Corner gives her view on the incongruous Bruce Wayne's YA adventure...
...and Kat @ Books and Sensibility discusses her take on the audio version of that same venture into Gotham's scenic alleys and asylums.
Danika @ The Lesbrary reviewed a graphic novel called Kim Reaper: Grim Beginnings.
And to finish us off this week, Justin Carter @ Comic Book Resources discusses how the verdant Oliver Queen, aka The Green Arrow, has returned to his Social Justice origins.
So my darling nerdlets, who's your favourite female superhero? 💬😄

I wish I started talking from the 19th century when I’m tired! That would be freaky but also kinda cool lol.
ReplyDeleteDid I describe The Green Arrow as 'verdant'? XD OMG, sometimes I worry about myself!
DeleteYeah... sometimes my friends would get jealous cos my school essays would sound smart when I wrote them tired. And I was like 'yeah, they *sound* smart, but I'm actually talking outta my a*se!'
Also, sometimes I get to the point where I just don't stop talking... The Bestie has some excellent e-mails I wrote when we were teens where I'm discussing vampires (because... tired,) and literally sound like I walked out of a gothic novel! For like, six super-long paragraphs. Oops!
My favorite superheroine is Mockingbird, followed closely by Rogue (of Xmen fame). I love Storm too, but I tend to relate to Rogue since everything she touches turns nasty. :P
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing- I hadn't seen that video!

Marvel Mockingbird, or DC Mockingbird? (I'ma assume you mean Marvel though!)
DeleteI kind of have a love/hate thing with Rogue. Sometimes she's truly awesome, sometimes she's just whiny (or just plain odd! Lol.)
I'm sure that you have less of a life-sapping force than Rogue. And I never thought I'd say that sentence! XD *hugs*
Marvel, of course! But I'm a bit lost in the fibro-fog still, so I forgot to mention that. :P

No worries - hope you're feeling better soon! :)
DeleteI finally saw the new Wonder Woman movie and loved it so Diana is my favorite superhero right now.

Diana's awesome! (And was actually originally written to be a feminist heroine! #TrueStory.) :)
