Matthew: maybe I say this because people keep using the word crisis all the time
but I just had this thought “you know, it kinda feels like the United States is in the middle of a big crossover event right now”
Sean: god help us!
but you’re right
Matthew: it’s that “everything at once” feeling
Sean: it’s the Final Crisis model where you’ve got the main thing, which is the election, and then all these tie-ins
Matthew: “nothing will be the same again!”
Sean: Financial Crisis
Rage of the Red Staters
Matthew: Rove’s Revenge
Sean: Palin of 3 Worlds
Matthew: Obama Beyond In 3D
Sean: LOL
YES
Matthew: McCain R.I.P.
Sean: Right now he’s the McCain of Zur-En-Arrh
running around in a costume made of garbage bags, hitting the Senate Majority leader with a baseball bat
“YOU’RE WRONG! MCCAIN AND PALIN WILL NEVER DIE!”
Matthew: who is the Barry Allen of this?
Sean: Dave Letterman
Matthew: in an interstellar burst, Dave is back to save the universe
ha, in retrospect, the run-up to all this was very much like Countdown To Final Crisis, wasn’t it?
Sean: Hillary, Mittens, and Rudy are no longer canon
Matthew: Hillary got killed off like four times in a row
and somehow they had to write out the part where Dennis Kucinich in a turtle costume single-handedly defeated McCain
Sean: costume?
Matthew: wasn’t Jimmy Olsen Turtle Boy or something when that happened?
Sean: no, I meant Dennis Kucinich is turtley enough as it is
Matthew: snap
