I'm probably missing a joke, but why is she frowny here? You'd think this was what she wanted. (Or something in the vicinity of what she wanted, at least.)

I have a theory that he just acts however the gently caress he wants because nobody knows how he's supposed to act. Sometimes it's hulkspeak, sometimes it's not, are you really gonna question the Hulk?

We can't hear it through speech bubbles, but Hulk often talks like one of the Karashian sisters just to thoroughly annoy people.

Nooooo, god no. The first arc of AA is everything bad about Bendis's Avengers condensed and amplified with a little bit of Guardians of the Galaxy and Thanos thrown in. Basically the whole thing exists to go "Huh, we're making a GotG movie, right? And Thanos is probably gonna be the villain of Avengers 2? We should probably reintroduce those poorly in case people forgot."

HAY were you guys curious about the Phantom Stranger like me, because you are old and remembered some pretty cool stories? Remember how the stranger was a mysterious badass who was more feared than heroic? Well that poo poo's gone now and you get subtle pieces of character writing like this: Phanton Stranger #0 This is so bad that it's funny which is why I'm posting it here. EDIT-vvvv Blacksad "Somewhere within the shadows" from the 2003 series. Don't remember more. Scaramouche fucked around with this message at 08:41 on Nov 16, 2012 |

Dem teeth For something that's funny because of good art, here's something from an issue of Blacksad. Not sure which one. I love the guy's expression in the first panel.

Yeah, I found it really refreshing to read an Avengers comic that was all about lighthearted character moments. Do think it's weird how Thor is all chummy with Tony after it's been established several times that he hates his guts over what happened during Civil War, but whatever, that wouldn't fit the tone of this comic anyway.

"All right! That's what I'm talking about! Goats!" Is awesome. I feel the urge to buy the book to find out what the context for that is.

Bendis did a mini a few years back, Avengers Prime, where Tony, Cap and Thor all just got over their outstanding "baggage/hatred/annoyance" with each other due to Civil War.

Wasn't Tony redeemed by having his character get amnesia specifically about all the rear end in a top hat things he had done? I remember being horribly disappointed at that, but I also hit my head a lot.

Although the art is a little stiff this is so much better than most of what I've seen over the last 20 years, and the writing is fun too. Reminds me of Amanda Conner's excellent work, especially expressions. And Thanos as a movie villain? If it's Jim Starlin's Thanos that would be awesome. I have no idea what weird poo poo writers have done to that character after all these years. He's probably a member of the Fantastic Four by now.

Thanos is still pretty much Thanos he's more interested in keeping the universe running now because Death pointed out that killing people for her is like giving her a bouquet of spreadsheets.

Five years of Spider-Man comics in one image. Funny thing is, you can always tell when a Marvel movie was coming out because there's always a pointless Marvel hero cameo, such as Spidey bumping into a fake Ghost Rider on a movie set, that made absolutely no sense. Also, it turns out that Spider-Man versus the brick makes almost 20% more sense in context! And since this is the funny panels thread, here's the same idea using two Dick Tracey arcs from 2010/2011 that came up just short of completion: JustV fucked around with this message at 05:06 on Nov 17, 2012 |
