Good is a conflation of NG and CG. It doesn’t really matter if you’re just out to help people or if you want to give the finger to the man at every opportunity, you’re commited to helping out other people. Lawful Good is like super-good or almost Paladin good.
Evil is essentially Lawful Evil. You take the things you want because you feel you’re entitled to them and everyone else is a worthless maggot. Chaotic Evil is the same as it ever was but with shades of hardcore Neutral Evil, without the lazy fucks like ogres and gnolls to dilute it. Why do there need to be extreams if they aren’t going to bother filling in the gaps? 10 Really Awesome Calvin And Hobbes Comic Strips.

"Returning to men in tights after a 15-year world-literature binge, I was almost overwhelmed by Alan Moore's 'Watchmen'," writes Garth Risk Hallberg. He's startled by the comic's complexity, but stumbles over the term "graphic novel" ... Special to MORE INTELLIGENT LIFE If fiction can be likened to a high–a “vivid, continuous dream,” as John Gardner put it–comic books were my gateway drug.
I discovered the Marvel and DC Universes at age 13, and spent hundreds of hours (and dollars) exploring them. This was the early 1990s, a heady era for superhero enthusiasts. A limited series called "Watchmen", written by Moore and drawn by Dave Gibbons, had appeared five years earlier, and had subsequently been collected in a one-volume “graphic novel”. Then I turned 14 and Ken Kesey got ahold of me. Then last month, after nine writers, three directors, and a year of post-production legal wrangling, the big-budget film adaptation of "Watchmen" hit theatres. Picture credit: DC Comics.

The character was created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger, and first appeared in Detective Comics #27 (May 1939).

Nolan drops some major spoilers about just when The Dark Knight Rises takes place. Is there anything ruling out that most of the spoiler images we have seen so far are for the 8 minute prologue scene only? I’m excluding the hot cat woman images and interior Bane vs Batman fight, where batman’s exhaustion would hint at an 8 year older man closer to his 40’s. Christopher Nolan could have let a lot of set images leak for this reason. He could have tightened down leaking images, it was done for I Am Legend, IIRC there were no images leaked of completely empty overgrown NYC avenues. Also, it would sound like a plausible prologue…
