THE TERRIBLE POST WENT THATAWAY!

Gatts posted:

I need more. Why is that woman floating or something? Who told him about ice cream and small humans? What does he do afterwards?

It's the third serial of the Ten Seconders, a 2000AD comic where some aliens came to earth and played at being Gods/superheroes wiping out a lot of humanity. Others of their species have shown up to clean up the mess which includes enhanced humans such as the woman and Damage if memory serves rightly.

As for who told him about ice cream and small humans, this guy.

I kind of like Damage.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Apparently they reskinned Superman just for Conan.

No, they took advantage of the number to do a Superman Goes To Hell issue. It's a dream sequence and Superman is intentionally being as evil as possible for Reasons, and somehow beating up the devil comes into it later? I forget.

It's actually dumber than that. Apparently Krypton's afterlife exploded at the same time as the planet, with only one demon riding along with superman's baby carriage. It then struck a deal with the local devils to try to corrupt Superman, and then the Phantom Stranger gave Superman a decoy faux soul for it to corrupt in some kind of dream fake alternate reality, and then Superman punched it in hell. Even for comics, it was really, really stupid.

Right, because Marvel has never, ever, ever published a ridiculous comic-book-y comic book. Not even once. Don't be a slave to the publisher logo, man.

Also, Superman #666 was great because it was basically a convoluted excuse for Busiek and Simonson (two Marvel alums, worth noting) to write and draw Superman being a huge loving dick for an oversized issue.

Seriously if you can read that issue and not be amused by a dreaming Superman just blowing off steam in his head with a Thriller-style "to be continued?!" ending which will never be touched upon again, I don't wanna know you.

That's comics as gently caress.

Nope. In fact one of the main reasons he made Deadpool was because he wanted to use Deathstroke again.

Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that no single book is. A book is not an isolated being: it is a relationship, an axis of innumerable relationships.
Where's that one with the "what if so-and-so was gender swapped" and the answer is "we'd get in trouble with dc"?

I want to say it involved Wonder Man.
