DC's Countdown as an Existentialist Narrative?
Let's talk about DC's Countdown series as an existentialist narrative. Is Jimmy Olsen an Existentialist treatise on living for yourself rather than other people? Did Trickster/Piper kill Kid Flash "because of the sun"?Are the Challengers of the Beyond's bickering proof that Hell is Other People? Is Darkseid really Kurtz?

Experiment I: My Letter to Frank Miller about Batman and Robin
I wrote an open letter to Frank Miller about my thoughts on this comic series, and it got really blasted (and I think misunderstood) by many. I think Barbelith folks are a bit more perceptive, and in this, and a second letter about Grendel, also posted, I intend to find out. -- SZS
