Neat Slate Superhero article. It reminds me that I need to check out Ex Machina at some point.

Amazon has volume 3 of Rising Stars in stock. I think I shall order it there. Anything you want, so we can combine and get free shipping?

Actually, let me amend that. I found a couple of other things, so if there isn't anything you want, I should be able to get the free shipping on my own. However, if there is stuff you want, we should order it together.

If you like Rising Stars, you should check out Supreme Power. Same author (JMS), somewhat similar themes, and I think the handling is tighter all around.

But then, I never really liked Rising Stars. The whole "what if all the superheroes and supervillains had all known each other as kids" aspect didn't click for me, and it ended up being way more central to the story than I was expecting.

Well if you can convince Kate to buy that as well, I may check it out too. :P
