Last week was all brawl, but this week, in the spirit of reconciliation (and, well, spirits at Happy Hour pricing), Josh “Lickin’ His Wounds” Rosenblatt and I will be hosting a get-together at the United States Art Authority. I suppose we might talk about comic book movies some more, but honestly, neither one of us wants to go anywhere the subject ever again (or at least until the lines for Batman: The Dark Knight thin out some).
