Blogspot RIP

Now, 4 months and no job later, the story continues...
So why the RIP in the title? To much critical reception, writer Grant Morrison has more or less "killed" the Batman in an arc called Batman RIP (technically he "bought it" in Final Crisis 6 but whatevs).
From the wiki:
In the story, the antagonists subject Batman to a series of mental assaults in an attempt to cause a nervous breakdown. Unfortunately for them, Batman is an unparalleled strategist and a paranoid sociopath so he created a brutal backup personality to counter any subliminal assualts and unleash a methodical asswhuppin on his persecutors.
Namely, the Batman of Zur En Arrh:
...arrrhh! That's right. He went out in public like that.
Anyway, I'll be taking a page from Batman's playbook by splitting my blogging persona into these 3 titles:
This one will be the artsy geeky whiny one, Punchlines for the funny and Purgatario to sober up.
So in true RIP fashion, I'll rely on some crossover event of these three different blogs to give some resolution to the fact that I'm just too lazy to do any one of those three things consistently. Less is more...work. Trust me.
Me: I don't want to leave DC!
Common Sense: Go to Micronesia with your parents!

Me: I don't want to move to Hawaii! I want to go back to DC!
Common Sense: Go to Hawaii, find a job.
7 months and 3 jobs later
Me: I don't want to leave Hawaii! I never want to go back to DC!
Common Sense: Good, stay here and be patient. Great things will happen if you can wait.
Me: Screw that, I'm giving it all up now and going back to DC with no backup plan!

From the wiki:
"Batman R.I.P." is a comic book story arc published in Batman #676-681 by DC Comics. Written by Grant Morrison, penciled by Tony Daniel, and with covers by Alex Ross, the story pits the superhero Batman against the Black Glove organization as they attempt to destroy everything he stands for. It has a number of tie-ins in other DC Comics titles that are not to be confused with the main story running in Batman.
