Besides..

Keep this URL handy: http://www.talkcity.com/tcp/subscribe.htmpl brokentuba: Speaking of Eth...Where is he? Wasn't he gonna come on too...? Wonder-boy: No, Todd! You're here.. all by yourself.. it was a TRAP! and you can't use your writing powers NOW! We're REAL PEOPLE! MWAHAHAHAHAHA! teensdc: I'm wondering that myself. I keep checking the buddy list for him. He was on at about seven, then logged off, then I've haven't seen him. YJFAN: Thats what he told me.. but, after Friday night, it wasn't an interesting site,,,kik teensdc: He emailed me earlier today, saying he'd be here. brokentuba: Wonder--Today I wish I really did have writing powers...! Wonder-boy: Writerman, Writerman.. does whatever a writer can... teensdc: How well are you an Ethan clicking so far, Todd? Just curious, since a strong team makes a book even better. YJFAN: Todd, I've noticed you on AOL a lot more recently.. big project? brokentuba: Ethan and I have really hit it off, and I tink that we're both adding to 'our' take on Impulse! I love Ethan's work and what he sends back to me is above and beyond what I had imagined in my head! It's GREAT!! Wonder-boy: Grrrrr-eat! teensdc: Cool. Can't wait to see it. Will you be building from what Bill and Craig have done or just sort of starting over from where Mark left off with the more serious stories? brokentuba: YJ--No, I've been on a lot more lately because of my new computer. It's a Pentium II (I had a Mac) and I've been tapping tech support to learn how to use it better. Wonder-boy: Starting over from Mark? But I like Gamal... teensdc: I'm on a Mac now. A powerbook G3. I love it. Wonder-boy: I'm on a home-built. IBM/Pentium amalgamation, I believe... brokentuba: We're not gonna forget anything anyone did before us, but wwe're gonna take it in our own direction, our own focus--the stories will be a bit more urgetn and intense, but it'll still be Bart in the middle of 'em! Wonder-boy: Yay! Gamal! Notice from NewsFlash: Find somebody who's right for you in the Web's most civilized and private online forum. Check out the Talk City Personals at http://www.one-and-only.com/menu1.htm?AssociateID=30386 teensdc: Just wondering since there were some pretty "intense" posts on the YJ board today about how Bill and Craig were "ruining Impulse" -- I enjoy their take though I do wish they were a tad more serious. Wonder-boy: I like they're take to. Gamal! Well, except for that "Virtua Pet" thing... I didn't get a single laugh outta that... brokentuba: Because I like writing emotional stuff, we're gonna bring Bart in a bit closer with kids his own age, and play around with his relationships wth Max and Heen... Wonder-boy: Sounds fun! Gamal too, right? RIGHT? teensdc: Cool. I love Helen and Carol. Bart's got an interesting cast of supporting characters. brokentuba: I think that I'm gonna have Gamal reveal his real name...Apu! teensdc: hmm... Wonder-boy: That's why I -liked- Gamal.... he was Apu! YJFAN has left the channel Wonder-boy: Although I like having an "Apu/Q" crossbreed. teensdc: Craig's netscape crashed. Bummer for him. He'll be right back. brokentuba: So, what else, besides Impulse, do you guys read? Wonder-boy: I read pretty much every book DC produces. And then I read Daredevil from Marvel. and Gen13 from Image. brokentuba: I love the Bat books (even though they're kinda stagnant right now) JLA, Sin City, Hellboy, AstroCity,Leave It to Chance, Lots of Independants and small press. teensdc: too much, my wife says. Superboy, YJ, Robin, GL, futaba kun-change, bone, genx, avengers, thunderbolts, cap america, catwoman, arsenal, jla, most DC stuff, sailor moon teensdc: how 'bout you, Todd, what books do you enjoy? Wonder-boy: Oh, right, and I read any "View Askew" book.. Jay and Silent bob. Ah... brokentuba: Sorry, beat ya to it. Wonder-boy: So far I enjoy all of Kevin Smith's work... teensdc: oh well, maybe next time.... btw, Ethan just logged on. teensdc: I always thought Impulse would be a great crossover with Chance Falconer. That would be so bizarre. brokentuba: Ethan's a baby... brokentuba: Yeah, a nice and casual crossover. Unexpected... Wonder-boy: My favorite books have to be, though.. Impulse, Robin, Young Justice, The Flash, Aquaman (until 50, the fact Erik Larsen writes it now just ruins it for me), Green Arrow... teensdc: just a young sprout, huh? 21 or so, isn't he?

Always fatal... teensdc: ha teensdc: What do you think the chances of having Bart crossover with anyone outside DCU would feasibly be? brokentuba: Kids are great...None of my own, but a niece and nephew, 5 and 2 respectively. They're the best...and I can give 'em back when I'm done with 'em... Wonder-boy: *Cough, Sonic the Hedgehog* It seems infantile, but that's the point.

Erik is a talented writer... try chekcing out Svage Dragon Wonder-boy: I've got a list of angry fans who can point out the dozens of mess ups he made.. just see the "Aquaman Mailing List" brokentuba: teens--I really like the (I hate calling it this) Marvel style--I write a plot, Ethan draws it, I script it. I think that lendss itself to a tighter and better collaboration between the Artist and the Writer nd makes for a better boo/story. Wonder-boy: Um, Ata? Lets drop it before I become bloodthirsty.. DCTEthan (~DCTEthan@xxxxxxxxxxx.ipt.aol.com) has joined the channel DCTEthan: Hello? teensdc: Ethan!!!!!!!!!! ATAman: And I have 160 fans on the Savage dragon list that'll prove em wrong Wonder-boy: Ethan! DCTEthan: It worked. There's no place like home.

ATAman: and Erik is a member as well... teensdc: good idea, dropping it, an all ATAman: Well a bunch of SD fans picked up issue 50... DCTEthan: Hello, are we talking bout Erik Larsen? ATAman: they werent fans before that...but 50 was a recap issue..they are never good Wonder-boy: Ata- my point is that Aquaman fans have follow Aquaman.. and have dozens of errors. Can we drop this? teensdc: Not a fan of the Gaiman style, with full script and descriptions and dialog all at once, Todd? ATAman: wait till he does some more issues then you can judge more accurately :) ATAman: Yeah, we were Ethan Wonder-boy: Can we drop this? ATAman: Hey Ethan, you know Rob Potchak? Wonder-boy: Were.

DCTEthan: Todd: I'm doin' good, partner. Drawing the stuff you're telling me to. DCTEthan: Teens: Arrowette. Wonder-boy: Woohoo! DCTEthan: I really like her. I'm notsure I like the new costume, but nevertheless. Wonder-boy: Wait! I have to ask this! Is Arrowette names Suzie or Cassie? teensdc: Okay, other than her, since Todd said we wouldn't be seeing much of her too soon... sigh DCTEthan: We have new COOL supporting characters to introduce! DCTEthan: Arrowette's name is Cissie. ATAman: Ethan: I really like that Elisa Landis cover you did for ROb... ATAman: I might be pencilling Elisa, actually :) Wonder-boy: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

DCTEthan: I don't think Gamal will be showing up again anytime soon... teensdc: Love the story behind that, got it from Tom Peyer, how he's now in the Stan Lee league of recreating character's names. ATAman: its the only thing i have seen fvrom you besides some cyberfrog ads DCTEthan: ATAman: Oh, I see. Well, there were some good Cyberfrog ads. brokentuba: Impulse ROCKS!! DCTEthan: Todd: What are you doing tonight? Did you dig your day off? ATAman: mmm hmm brokentuba: Cyberfrog ROCKS!! Wonder-boy: I'm going to go see if I can get Nik to do one of those "Rants" to get Arrowette's name changed..... DCTEthan: Todd is channeling Beavis. DCTEthan: Cissie is a good name for Arrowette. teensdc: Ethan, how much detail does Todd give in scripts? REally thorough, or do you get teh basics and then play around with it some? DCTEthan: She's such a little priss. It's perfect. brokentuba: I worked on plot today and feel like I'm gettin' my groove back! Kicked ass t Volley ball last night! Spiked Starlin right in the head! Wonder-boy: ....I don't... Wonder-boy: Umm.. whats Cissie short for...? DCTEthan: Teens: Todd writes very detailed plots, that leave room for me to play around. DCTEthan: Todd: LOL!!! DCTEthan: Cissandra. DCTEthan: J/K Wonder-boy: What is it? Cassandra? that's what I'm guessing... DCTEthan: The thing I've noticed about the YJ characters is that they all have serious personality flaws.... teensdc: cool. Curious since Devin Grayson sent me one of her Catwoman scripts and I got a Primal Force script from Steve Seagle, and those two write books. I've read novels with fewer words. DCTEthan: Cassandra is WonderGirl's name. brokentuba: teens--ask Ethan about my plots when I'm not around...he'll tell ya the truth then... Wonder-boy: Than what's Cissie short for?

Wonder-boy: *frowns* I still don't get it.. two issues as "Suzie", and one "sum up bio" as Cissie, an she's CISSIE! DCTEthan: Todd always goes right for the throat with the coolness factor.

DCTEthan: A missing sister.....Oliver Queen is the father.... Wonder-boy: Half-sister than...

And Mike's ot plenty o work now--maybe something coming up from DC... Wonder-boy: Idunno, I love Ringo's style on it. He made it jump out and BITE... well, that means I really loved the style. ATAman: Well work hadnt found him for MONTHS when he was exclusively with MArvel DCTEthan: We should get Ringo to do IMPULSE covers. Arrowette: that would be cool. teensdc: Dang, then he's awesome.

Wonder-boy: Didn't know ears could actually BLEED from too loud a noise. *turns down radio* teensdc: What was your self-published book, Todd? ATAman: it was called Kabuki or something..it never went anywhere... ATAman: heh heh j/k Arrowette: hehe ATAman: Mack lives about 10 mins from me actually Wonder-boy: Heh Wonder-boy: Mack? Arrowette: how coneVEEnient ATAman: David Mack brokentuba: I did a mini/small press/independent/(xeroxed) comic with a friend called "A Series Of Movements Which Could Best Be Described As Awkward".

I'd love to see it if it's still available anywhere. Wonder-boy: Sean- TJ, right? ATAman: Hey Todd... dont you just despise what Byrne is doing with spidey? Wonder-boy: or no... brokentuba: If ya go for that kinda stuf. My other comic grew out of it. It was called "Biff Nipkin, The Human Q-Tip" I did that all myself... ATAman: hee hee teensdc: TJ is a co-plotter, Scott Brooks is the penciller. https://members.tripod.com/~dctquiz/cj.htm if you want to see, Bowie Wonder-boy: Ah. teensdc: ATA, Todd, yep, I curious to your thoughts on that too, Todd, since I just got Chapter One from a friend yesterday. It reminded me of an older style of storytelling that I haven't seen in a while. Wonder-boy: *Laughs at Q-Tip's name* I read that an immediately grabbed Flash 80 giant, and went to reading the "Interview with Mark Millar"... Johnny Zipper! ATAman: John is frickin butchering it Arrowette: i'm not very into spidey anyway. ATAman: he should just give up writing and start penciling full time teensdc: his Spidey looks like Spidey should, I think. Arrowette: i seem to have walked in in the middle of everything and it never stopped. teensdc: So, Arrowette, what books do you read? teensdc: Todd, your thoughts? brokentuba: Sorry, Arrowette. brokentuba: I don't like to say anything mean. Arrowette: crimson, creed (when it come out), ash (same), a lot of manga... Arrowette: s'okay. teensdc: okay. that's a sufficient answer, I suppose. I loved his take on Wonder Woman, and his Next Men. but some of the other stuff doesn't work for me. CraigTY1: Well sorry I couldn't stay longer. but I have the Hangout, and the Robin's Nest to work on. bye everyone. Thanks Tood.. ethan.

Arrowette: no. what's it about? Arrowette: (of course, i read too much now...... ;p ) teensdc: a kid who -- now that he's hit puberty -- turns into a girl every time he gets "interested" in a girl Arrowette: hmm. sounds interesting. teensdc: like I said, it's strange. really funny, though. Wonder-boy: Sean- Does he get interested in his weird new body? That could then make LONG lasting "I'm a girl now" stories.. brokentuba: Sounds kinda cool. WHo does it? brokentuba: If I could morph my body, I'd be girl about 90% ot the time... brokentuba: lol teensdc: nope, but he's only got a few issue so far. maybe soon. though maybe it won't get too weird. Wonder-boy: I gotta go with Todd there... teensdc: IronCat publishes it. teensdc: It's really good. And I'm not a really big manga fan, just select titles. brokentuba: And then I'd spend most of that time in front of a mirror. Arrowette: i think i'll look for it. Wonder-boy: Again, agree with Todd.. * Arrowette sighs teensdc: So, Todd and Ethan, is it nice to be able to write your comics off your taxes as a business expense? Arrowette: hehehehe brokentuba: Yeah, there is an upside to working in comics... teensdc: ha. Arrowette: maybe i can get a job as a letterer... CraigTY1 has left the channel DCTEthan: I don't actually buy any comics anymore...It IS nice to be able to write TOYS off, though. Arrowette: are you an action figure man? teensdc: I bet. I can't wait for the Supergirl figure from TAS to come out. DCTEthan: I really love Batman toys, yes. teensdc: That an a line featuring the YJ kids. Arrowette: oh? Wonder-boy: I love SG from TAS, she is just SO cool. Arrowette: yeah. DCTEthan: There's no YJ line, is there? Arrowette: i still haven't gotten my harley figure, though Arrowette: annoyannoyannoy teensdc: I can dream though, Ethan, with a Spoiler figure included. Wonder-boy: Sean- I'm making a Spoiler figure... Arrowette: i want an impulse figure. and i don't usually buy guy dolls brokentuba: Arrowette--are you just looking for one, or is there one on the way.? Arrowette: looking. Arrowette: yes, i know what the chances are... teensdc: I got a Harley figure for Christmas last year. My friend nearly freaked when I opened it up and told him I wanted to actually "play" with it.

Arrowette: bye teensdc: Oh, that reminds me, would you have to get permission from Chuck to use Spoiler in a crossover with Bart? teensdc: bye, ATA ATAman: hey Todd...brokentuba is the same as a sousaphone isnt it? brokentuba: No, it's the name of a music supply company in my head. Wonder-boy: You know Sean, I'm STILL Curious as to if "Presto" is going to make more then a "mention" appearance... as he was in the last few pages of Flash 80 page.. he seemed to be cool teen. MAGIC kid! brokentuba: Night, Tom! DCTEthan: I'd like a Scully and a corpse two pack. You'd have to squint your brain to imagine the scenes I'd play out. ATAman: ah... Arrowette: groan ATAman: I thought you said it was anickname for some instrument before.. teensdc: sigh Arrowette: i'm waiting for it to do onsale DCTEthan: I think I'm getting those toys for christmas.

Wonder-boy: Ethan- I've played Lex Luthor and The Joker in RolePlays.. very well. I don't have to squint. Arrowette: is that the thought for the evening? brokentuba: I had a guy MAKE and IMPULSE figure fo Mark! It came out kinda okay, but DC could do a lot better. teensdc: yep. we've chatted quite a bit. DCTEthan: Wait until our Impulse run happens. A cartoon and a line of toys must ensue. Arrowette: cartoon! Wonder-boy: Sean- actually, you added "Presto" to your "Teens" list? Should.... teensdc: I hope so. just be sure to use Spoiler so that she gets a toy too. Wonder-boy: Impulse in a cartoon! Hoo-yaa! Arrowette: i want an impulse lunch box Wonder-boy: Should make a "Young Justice" Cartoon.... brokentuba: But I don't wanna be ensued!?!?! Arrowette: my sailor moon one is all beat up teensdc: I didn't pick up the Flash 80 page, I had a broke week. Plus, I figure that I can get them in the dollar bins in a few months. Wonder-boy: Sean- Well simply, Presto is Zatanna's direct descendant, from the 30th century.... DCTEthan: Teens: Now that's just rude. :) Wonder-boy: It didn't say if he went back or not. Arrowette: i found instructions somewhere on how to make your own lunchbox... teensdc: oops. Something about trying to justify a five dollar book to my wife ...

DCTEthan: I remember SPIDERMAN vs WOLVERINE back in 87. It was 2.50, and I thought that was outrageous. teensdc: I hate shiny paper. I like the old cruddy paper. It felt like comics. Arrowette: when i started reading, they were $1.25. so there. Wonder-boy: I'm 14, this is "when I was a kid" Wonder-boy: Although I remember paying 1.00 at the "really pricy" Flying Colors for a Spiderman... brokentuba: And the SMELL of newsprint...If I could only smell one smell for the rest of my life... teensdc: When I was a kid they were reall cheap. When I started re-reading they were around a dollar. Arrowette: wb: in ten years when its $5 for a 32 page book... DCTEthan: Todd: Ah, my first comic was an old copy of AMAZING SPIDERMAN #17. And it smelled great. DCTEthan: Like an attic. DCTEthan: I don't like the smell of Golden Age books though. Just Silver age. Wonder-boy: My first was.... what was it.... What If #11.. Cheap bin at the time.
