The Question IRL posted:Still, the Skull ran a tight ship. He had a squad of loyal super villains that he called his Skeleton Krew. He must have treated them well, right? "The boss can be a real jerk sometimes." Well, he is a Nazi, Crossbones. A literal Nazi. Red Skull looking like he's projectile vomiting that coffee everywhere is pretty dang hilarious too.

Venom pulled two of them off and it seemed to annoy Namor somewhat. (that RRRRIP! is like webcomic-level onomatopoeia)

Namor and Black Adam are pretty much an unspoken inter-company rivalry to as who can be the more stone-cold anti-hero badass, don't they? Both of them get posted a lot in various ways.

Lurdiak posted:It's a real shame that Gruenwald's interminable run is what followed JM Dematteis' run, where he took a lot of the cast in a more mature and psychologically intense direction. I loved Gruenwald's run on Cap. He wrote him as someone who had to make difficult decisions (like having to shoot a terrorist dead).

Well, Namor was ripping off heads when it was still shocking but Black Adam seems to do it to every two-bit thief that crosses his path, so yeah. Flesh Forge posted:Well not literally, right? Ghostlight posted:Venom pulled two of them off and it seemed to annoy Namor somewhat. Also of course he can pull them off literally but it hurts like hell. But they grow back. It's happened like three times I think.

There were some high points, like Flag-smasher's introduction or that time Cap punched Reagan, but for the most part it was dumb saturday morning cartoon stuff, and he was on the book for way too long. Remember that terrible sidekick he created who was like a parody of feminists?

If you wanted to put together an illustrated presentation on the best and the worst things about 1980s Marvel, you could do a lot worse than just handing a dude a stack of Gruenwald's Cap comics. He could get pretty loving weird if nobody stopped him, same as anyone else (holy poo poo is his Quasar book weird in retrospect), but he's fondly remembered for a reason.

Does his head grow a new body or his body a new head? Or do they both grow replacements and you get two wolverines? I expect that they dodge this question by having someone put his head back in place to rejoin or something.

See the badass panels thread for this exact derail. And for content, the panel I posted there which was supposed to be badass but is hilarious. Source: Wolverine: Origins #27 or 28 Ashcans posted:Does his head grow a new body or his body a new head? Or do they both grow replacements and you get two wolverines? I expect that they dodge this question by having someone put his head back in place to rejoin or something. They did this in Deadpool where his body grew a new head which was still him and his head got a new body and became evil. So, maybe that.

At that point they should just have him go liquid metal like the T-1000 where his body just finds itself and merges together. I think when Ultimate Hulk tore Wolverine apart he dragged himself to his lower half to heal. Comedy option is progressively tinier Wolverines like Ash and something out of Army of Darkness. I remember Deadpool or Hulk or someone having to set their bones before they heal otherwise it would just come out bad.

They went out of their way to point out that Ultimate Wolverine's power works differently, which is why he survived decapitation. In that bit where Fury's talking to his head, Fury notes that Logan's started breathing through his skin and they have no idea how he's still able to talk. 616 Logan has moments of spectacular nonsense due to writers not knowing when to quit, but it's been pointed out that he could be killed if you bled him out fast enough (X-23 tried it once), if you drowned him (Daken tried it), or if you threw him into hard vacuum. It's just not efficient or realistic that you'd kill him through straight-up violence.

There was some one-off book I remember reading where Logan's skeleton is all loving mangled and Kitty Pryde pushes him around in a wheel chair and then kills him by phasing her hand inside his skull and just kinda jumbling the bits up real quicklike.

If scrambling his brain was enough to kill him, pretty much everyone with super strength who punched him in the head could do it. Who wins, loses, lives, dies all depends who's writing.

You're probably mixing the Ghost Boxes What If Wanderer's talking about with the What If where Wolverine gets brainwashed by Hydra or something, singlehandedly kills every other hero in the world and then Kitty leaves her hand in his head after he severs it to finally kill him. I think she bleeds to death after? It was a pretty dumb story.
