Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose and the Haunted Hoo-Ha
At Chris’s Invincible Super-Blog read this heartfelt paean to Jim Balent’s fan-service-tastic, Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose and what could be the worst piece of dialogue in comics history… or the best: ‘You have to get out of here. Your vagina is haunted.'” Chris has lots more to say about Tarot. (And personally, if my ghostly vagina were constantly bleeding, I wouldn’t only be wearing a ghostly thong. Just sayin’). (thanks, ‘col!)
