I've been AWOL lately, for 'productive' reasons of course. Somehow I ended up with a ridiculous amount of assessment all due in one week. On top of that I'm currently on "holidays" but somehow have to write a ridiculously long and boring essay for administrative law. This essay is, of course, worth a large percentage of my grade so I am, quite frankly, stressed out of my mind!


I have been a good little law student while offline, but I just want to plug one of my favourite blawgs at the moment: Law and the Multiverse. It's hilarious, quirky and is just full of awesome!


Law and the Multiverse looks at the "hypothetical legal ramifications of comic book tropes, characters, and powers". So you can just see how awesome it is! I got into a discussion recently with someone regarding a Batgirl comic where Batgirl  was called a murderer after she arrived to save the day but the badguy ended up killing someone anyway. Long story short, we had a gigantic conversation about where she would stand legally. Nerdy as it may be, I found it to be fun and, surprisingly, a good legal workout. 


I'm rather new to comics and not a huge fan but Law and the Multiverse has entertained me for quite some time! I definitely recommend you check it out! It's not Australian so obviously the laws differ, but the general idea is the same.  It's entertaining, thought-provoking and educational!
