I'd forgotten all about it

So Vox is dying - I vaguely remembered having an account there and imported it into typepad. Don't ask me why. But! It's a good thing I did! The two weeks I was actually posting there was right around the birth of Nephew1, including an entry from the actual day, summing up the whole confusing story (lots of driving around, for one thing), so that was nice.

And I found this, which I probably posted there to test before posting it to scans_daily

Piper's coming out in Flash:

DC Comics, the Pied Piper coming out to his friend, the Flash (incarnation Wally West). He's ... totally cool with it. Only not so much. This is actually really funny and realistically sort-of-sad at the same time.

(Reposting here because I'll delete it on Typepad - if I ever use it, it'll be for my non-fandom stuff, and I don't want to link my two online identities, at least not in this direction.)

Pretty much, yeah.

*nods* one of the (few) times they did manage to hit the right note "back in the day" (this is from 1991. Now I feel old.)

I love this bit. I was just looking for it the other day to give to someone. Piper's great in this (he's great in many other bits as well).

I love Piper. *g* When I looked through scans_daily and Wikipedia I read that some awful things happened (as usual), but he seems to be one of the good guys again. I haven't followed comics in a long time...

Have you seen this? Combines the awesome powers of Piper and Freddie Mercury! *g*

*massively heartfelt* - Oh, wow.


This is great. But I don't follow comics, because it's all too messy and in my current state of mind it's just confusing and stressy and not at all fun. But this was really a great moment.
