Over on plurk.com, I got bored and started to list my favorite Legion of Super-Heroes. After starting the list, I decided it would be better for Shattered Prayer instead.

So for those who come to Shattered Prayer to read about comics, enjoy! Here are my favorites and the reasons they interest me so. Long Live the Legion!

I just wanted to take a moment to wish my favorite girl a happy birthday. She’s nine years old today, and for her birthday has had meat, treats, ice-cream, toy mice, scritchins and much much lurvin’.

I was perusing one of my favorite websites, Newsarama.com, when I came across the headline “Superman’s Hidden History.” Naturally, I wanted to know more.

Well, the season finale of Doctor Who is over, and as much as I would love to talk about the ending of Series Four of Doctor Who, there are people in New Zealand and Australia who have not yet seen it. So for those who haven’t had the chance to see how the Doctor and Donna fare after “Journey’s End,” I’ll try to be spoiler lite, and I will talk about . . .

Well, why not look after the jump to see?
