Spring and superheroes
Happy birthday, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
marinarusalka! You have the same birthday as my grandmother, which is awesome, although she is 89 and you are considerably younger ;)
inmyriadbits posted a funny(/awful) story from our granny's birthday lunch before I could beat her to it.

Viadotfic, I learned that a minor DC comics character that I was fond of got fridged. (warning: TV Tropes link!) The character was Lian Harper, the ten-year-old daughter of Roy Harper. There's more information here. Since she's a kid, there's very little chance of the usual comics resurrection, and they managed to ruin another character's honor along the way.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with DC canon, this is like if Castle was a less-notorious but respected member of the crime-fighting community and someone killed Alexis. And then Martha killed someone in cold blood in revenge.
ARGH.

I'm really glad I'm so far behind on my comics.
Apparently there were a lot of editorial shenanigans surrounding the series?
