* Can somebody explain to me who else besides Tucker Stone thinks the idea of a rainbow of Lantern Corps is a bad idea? Is there anyone who’s even the tiniest bit open to the idea of “Green Lantern” who’s like “Oh hell no, RED Lantern? Bullshit, that’s where I’m drawing the fucking line”? Who is the target audience for anti-Red Lantern snark? I actually want to know.

* We are living in the New Golden Age of Comics.

* When AICN, ground zero for fandom, spends its entire recap column driving Range Rovers through your show’s plotholes, you’re in real trouble. Couldn’t have happened to a more irritating phenomenon.

* I was going to post about what a bummer the very public falling out between Aqua Leung creators Mark Andrew Smith and Paul Maybury is, but Dick Hyacinth said much of what I would have said about it already.

* The New Yorker’s Ben Greenman offers his candidates for the five scariest movies ever. Nice to see The Texas Chain Saw Massacre on there. (Since you asked: The Blair Witch Project, The Shining, The Exorcist, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and then…I’m not sure. The Ring, Hostel, 28 Days Later, and Lost Highway were all very frightening to me.) (Via Bryan Alexander.)

* Topless Robot’s Chris Cummins takes a look at ten (mostly non-Chick) Jack T. Chick tracts.

* Also via TR, ten solid minutes of awful, awful Batman & Robin moments. This is at least on par with that batshit Wicker Man video.

* Check out this terrific zombie poster Sammy Harkham made for his Family Store’s October horror movie festival.

* Craig Thompson carves, is carved out of wood

* The real world is awful and this headline (via Carnacki) is proof:
