reflectedeveWell, that was a weekend! I had a lovely visit home that incorporated finally meeting my brother's sweet Swiss girlfriend and some really quality fangirl time. Also some very productive thesis time. And, you know ... punctuated by the RPF twitter gossip mill. :/ Well. I don't really have much to say about that, but I know it's been getting under some of your skin for a variety of reasons, so. <3
I am busy busy busy trying to speed up my (faster than ever, but still) slowww creative process in order to turn in something substantial to my thesis committee in May! Fortunately my project is exciting and losing none of its shine for the fact that I am actually nailing it down to specifics now. (I even have a length! 144 pages, although I'm only hoping to get to 48 this semester. We will see.) So, you know. Expect me when you see me, and all that.
I did, however, pick up the new Gillan/McKelvie Young Avengers #1 while I was home, and just, eeee. I can't lie; I was a little frustrated that the third Phonogram book got pushed back for this, but just ... seeing these two bring their full stylistic approach to bear on a team of teen heroes is kind of beautiful. "I come from a dimension where there is transcendental peace and universal enlightenment. But there are no close harmony girl groups. How could anyone leave a world that makes things as wonderful as this?" <333 Also, KATE BISHOP and MISS AMERICA CHAVEZ, siiiiigh. *_*
McKelvie's artistic weakness has always been a certain stiffness, but I think he's definitely improving in that area (he'd have to, really, drawing such a dynamic genre). And I think this is the best coloring I've ever seen applied to his work, which I normally prefer black & white.
Um, would someone mind explaining the tiny!Loki thing to me, though? I've been aware of it, I see it around, but I thought for awhile that it was an alternate universe thing or something. Apparently not?
