I’ve never been very interested in Jack Kirby’s “Fourth World” characters, but last night’s episode of Justice League Unlimited has left me wanting to read more Mister Miracle-Big Barda stories.
I’ve always been more of a Barda fan based on her appearances in the Justice League International comics. She’s just such a great combination of tough and tender. Nothing wrong with Miracle, mind you, but I find him more interesting as part of a couple. I love the marital dynamic between Barda and Scott. (I hope nobody at DC reads this, remembers that they have a happy, functional couple in their stable, and rushes to Dibny them in a crappy mini-series.)
So if anyone has any favorite Barda-Scott stories to recommend, I’d be glad to hear them.
