Plus Peter David is a pop culture whore, and had probably been looking for someplace to play with transgender roles since seeing "The Crying Game."Diabolu Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685199809207954223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620698560611640068.post-22667187734058561982009-02-12T08:48:00.000-06:002009-02-12T08:48:00.000-06:00It struck me that at it was a goof on both the “Gi...It struck me that at it was a goof on both the “Girl on Girl” soft core stuff we see in comics all the time (I mean, half of Wonder Woman’s fights are two steps away from a playboy cover) and the fan girl squealing over Bishonan type situations (Men that seem like women)Bookgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03818125401769011993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620698560611640068.post-12157242382147791742008-07-04T16:24:00.000-05:002008-07-04T16:24:00.000-05:00You would be well advised to purchase a run of JLT...You would be well advised to purchase a run of JLTF, specifically the second half that Mark Waid & Christopher Priest wrote. I think you'd dig it the most. Triumph is an honorary Heywood.<BR/><BR/>I don't think the fangirls would hate on the story today, as it was very pro-woman.
