Update...
Well, its been a hell of a month! Not sure how to outline this all for you - but to say the least its left me a bit exhausted, but its all really good stuff.
First off - Justice Society!!! - You know what I'm talking about if you're reading it....the new Wildcat, Dream Girl of classic Legion of Supes in chains....I mean that's some seriously cool shit! The whole kick off to this series has been amazing.
To the big news...I just had a compelling job offer that I ultimately declined because my current company reminded me of why I like it here...I had to
do some serious thinking, but ultimately I've decided to sit tight.
Other big news...Rocco and I just signed the papers on an apartment up in Riverdale. Its right where the Hudson and East Rivers meet. Right on the banks of the river. A cute one bedroom. I'm extremely excited.
I never realized how much I really did want to get out of the city. I like the idea of being a commuter...
In other words, Archie and Jughead buy their first home.
In such an “upscale" suburb, how will you find enough inferiors for Rocco to mock?

Congrats, dude! I looked at a (penthouse!) one-bedroom up in the Heights for about five minutes before I realized that I'm *not* quite ready to get out of the city yet. (I think you've been here longer than me.) I *am* starting to feel a bit closed in, though.

Congratulations on the new home, Corey. It sounds great. Commuting, in my experience, has always been a great time to read this week's comics, which actually frees up time for other things!
JSA has been great - and I'm hoping (ok, it's really just wishing...) that the appearance of classic LSH members in this title will have a cascade effect on the future LSH, and fix all the stuff that they've messed up in subsequent incarnations. I'm not sure if you're reading it or not, but the new JLA had a few interesting twists this week also (like their new headquarters).

Congratulations.... When is the apartment warming party?

Michael--I'm liking the new JLA more than the new JSA, but the inclusion of the superfriends headquarters is making me roll my eyes. The Marvel universe is taking these great strides toward greater dramatic and political sophistication -- while the DCU is taking great strides toward... the 70s cartoon versions of their characters.
And what's the deal with that space station? That thing could hold thousands of people -- why do they need all that space when, god knows, they'll never show us any sort of support staff?

does "different" mean "gay"?
