Ah, you've read this one. I'm not very far in, but I'm curious to see if Lund's profile of him actually matches up.

Batman comics. Also rereading the novels based on the Nolan-verse movies so I can start reading either Batman: Fear Itself by Michael Reaves and Steven-Elliot Altman or Batman: Arkham Knight: The Riddler's Gambit by Alex Irvine. Shall write up a review for whatever one I read when read.

Dante's Stalker
"Outrun this!"
Finished Cold Days by Jim Butcher.
"I suppose I could go get you your duster now, though."
"I'd look like a flasher," I said.
-
"I've done it enough to know that you and I are the Titanic."
"We're people," I said. "Not some f***ing ship."
-
But before it could grab me, there was a rush of footsteps, and a four-legged form consisting entirely of what looked like mud slammed into its rearmost leg.
The mud creature hit the rawhead hard. The power of its impact cracked bones and blew the leg out from beneath the rawhead. The fae giant bellowed a ground-shaking roar. A ton of bloody bones fell, and the mud creature, white teeth flashing, kept after it.
Snarling.
-
"Look," I said. "Me and the island are...kind of partners."
"Oh, right," Thomas said. He looked at Karrin and said, "Harry's a geosexual."
-
"Down, down to goblin town you go, my lad!" I sang in a hearty, badly pitched baritone. I was panting. "Ho, ho, my lad!"
Demonreach's glowing eyes flicked toward me. Maybe irritated.
"Oh, come on," I said. "You never saw the Rankin-Bass animated version of The Hobbit? The one they made before they did the movies in New Zealand?"
It didn't answer.
"Harry," Bob muttered at me. "Stop trying to **** it off."
"I'm bored," I said.
-
"I'm not ambivalent."
"You know better, but you're being a moron about it anyway," Bob said.
-
"I need broadband, Harry."
"That's a computer thing, right?"
"Philistine," Bob the Skull muttered.

Two chapters away from finishing Black House. As soon as I'm done, I'm reading The Dresden Files: Storm Front.

Finished Storm Front yesterday. Started The Golden Compass today. (And children's book, my ass! YA at the absolute least. I swear they refer it to the children's section just because the MC happens to be a child. The plot seems to dictate otherwise. Liking it a lot, and seeing a fair bit of difference from the movie, already).

"Outrun this!"
He turns them into more coherent and sensical stories.He did a version of the Grimm fairytales?!
I also had no idea that Rapunzel's mother wanted to abort her or that she sold her to the witch. Or that Rapunzel ended up a beggar. And they like to leave out the part about the prince being blinded by thorns, too. It's got a happy ending, but I like the horrible bits in-between.
