For real though: I'd read a Barda and Scott living in the suburbs book. Get Amanda Conner or Keith Giffen to draw it and put it on comixology with your other digital books and I'd probably buy an iPad to read it.

I'd sign on for that so drat quick. Although if Morrison wrote it, he'd probably make the suburbs itself a villain, which would be amusing.

Woah, I'm amazed Batman didn't kill the Joker for calling him a batty-boy. In front on his workmates as well.

Iron Man #8: Tony Stark gets forced into gladiatorial combat when he gets caught out of his suit by a race of aliens who worshipped the Phoenix and didn't like him blasting it with a big gun in AvX. Luckily for him, said aliens are a race of intellectuals who suck at gladiatorial combat. Unluckily for him, they brought in a ringer.

I'm so happy to see the real Death's head back but why the gently caress does it have to be Land drawing him? His art sucks, yes?

Dick Trauma posted:With all these terrible DC stories being posted it reminded me of a Superman comic from the 1960s or early 1970s with a villain that had a device that transferred powers from Superman to himself. I think he had some sort of Roman theme going, like he was going to be SUPER CAESAR or some drat thing. His power transference chair had settings for just how much power he could drain and ultimately he decided to go for the gusto and drain it all from Superman, but it was causing his own body to explode. Someone must know who this guy is, because I'm hoping to find a panel of that drat chair with the various drain settings on it. The super intelligence was too much for him. It was one of the few vintage Superman comics I had as a kid and I read it quite a bit, along with some "Super baby" backup story. Super Caeser sounds about right. Chaos Hippy posted:Nah, the Eradicator mentioned that if he had gotten to Superman's body 24 hours later than he did, it might not have been possible to revive him, but there was no rush to get him buried. I doubt decomposition would be much of a problem for the first while. So, when did the Eradicator get a new body and let Superman revive himself? Or was the Eradicator just a Superman look-alike? I was so confused when the Eradicator appeared later with a totally different face.

Super Caeser sounds about right. The Eradicator awoke after Superman's death and went to steal the body, but because Superman's soul was still there he couldn't. Instead he syphoned off mass from the tomb and used it to create a replica of Superman's body, stole the real thing, and used it as a giant-rear end battery for his powers. We found out later that Superman was in some kind of healing trance that was using up his solar reserves. He would (and should) have died but Cadmus kidnapped him and bathed him in solar energy while trying to get the DNA to clone Superboy. Eradicator basically did the same thing while using his body as a power battery. After Eradicator encountered the Cyborg Superman, he got his poo poo wrecked, had to flee back to the Fortress of Solitude, and found that Superman was gone and he couldn't recharge. He ended up draining the entire Fortress to heal himself which changed his design. Then he went to help Superman and ended up sacrificing himself to replenish Superman's powers. After that his corpse was taken away and somehow ended up bonding with a doctor or something? His star kind of faded after that.

I thought the Eradicator was pretty swank when paired with Majestic. I liked Majestic.

CapnAndy posted:My favorite touch in the whole thing. Superman "dies" so everyone does the stupidest thing possible and locks him in an underground tomb, away from the sun. And then naturally when Superboy dies, they do it again. Indeed. If Superman "dies," the answer is shoot him into orbit around the sun. He'll get better.

You leave the body on the windowsill in the sun like he was a pie, and hope Lex Luthor doesn't sneak up to try and steal it.

Superboy's body was put in a Kryptonian healing matrix because since he was half human he needed a boost, it took 1000 years to rebuild him.

I'm reading the Harras/Epting run on the Avengers DVD. It's really fun soap opera, but sometimes the melodrama goes a bit too far. Source: Avengers 367.   (these are Jim Hall's pencils, not Steve Epting's)

In the issue of Action that followed the official return (Superman #82) they clearly state that he was honestly and truly dead and that the circumstances of his return were unique and could never be replicated.
