It is good to hand down the important things in life to the next generation.

I just introduced The Young Lady to They Fight Crime.

(The impulse was inspired, I should add, by oyceter's recent book review.)

He's a time-tossed drug-addicted gentleman spy who hangs with the wrong crowd. She's a violent punk research scientist who hides her beauty behind a pair of thick-framed spectacles. They fight crime!

He's a bookish Jewish romance novelist who hides his scarred face behind a mask. She's a provocative junkie advertising executive with the soul of a mighty warrior. They fight crime!


I love it.

She's a fan! And meets him at a book signing! Enemies of Literature break into the store and attempt to rob it, and his being threatened brings out her Inner Hector! And he is Andromache! Or something! Why so many exclamation points! Even my icon!

I think that the most enchantingly deeply wrong character I ever saw come up was a mermaid with a flamethrower ... .

mermaid with a flamethrower


How does that even work. *ponders* There has to be some way to make that work.

This site is too funny.

He's a suicidal bohemian assassin on a search for his missing sister. She's a virginal wisecracking hooker from the wrong side of the tracks. They fight crime!

Hmm. Does that sound like an AU for anyone we know? :D

Ooh, I like that! (Although my brain is doing mental somersaults trying to figure out "psychic mechanic". ...Yesterday I ran across "vegetarian barbarian", too).

Thanks for posting the link. :D
