Funny how something innocuous like posting a goofy Sonic cover can cause the thread to spin off in a different direction. Anyway, funny panel, not a homage. Marceline and the Scream Queens #3.  Who the heck changes Marceline's underwear for her?

That is a list of things that should be obvious for her to do. The whole point is that she should already know to get to the photo shoot, just like she should already know how to put on her own clothes and that she should breathe.

It will ostensibly look enough like this thread to be recognisable but differ in its presented content.

It's relatively subtle, but I got a good laugh out of this cover.

Ah jokes about Daredevil. The (sadly gone) Toyfare Theatre used to do a load of fantastic ones about DD. This is one of my favourite, it comes from Toyfare #64 "The Way We Wuz" Edit: In hindsight this is much better in context. So here you go, the whole story.

SilverSupernova posted:It's relatively subtle, but I got a good laugh out of this cover. Hey, maybe something even more interesting is happening over to the left, you don't know! Content: Time-travel shenanigans are all afoot as the time-displaced X-Men run in to a seemingly time-displaced Doctor Octopus (or maybe he's a robot or clone, the story's not done yet)  when who should show up for a team up but Spider-Man (who is Doctor Octopus, for those who aren't up to speed on recent Marvel events)  I just really like "I'm certain that's exactly what the first clone said" Source is All-New X-Men Special.

This isn't from any actual comics, but some furniture company decided to do something bizarre and wonderful on its blog. Example:

After binging on a handful of Thor and JitM trades, I couldn't help picking up Archie #648 when it caught my eye today. It rules.  I've never read the original, but I'm pretty sure it's just a sendup of Thor's origin story where instead of defending truth, justice, and Hostess Fruit Pies he stays on Earth because of all the choice babes. Also Jughead is Falstaff, so he's really fat, and that's funny. They have him riding a donkey.

He only became a badass because later writers liked him too much to leave him as an incompetent braggart, but he was totally Falstaff in the Kirby era.

Source: Not a drat clue. Tails is useful during hot weather.  Edit: Might as well post some more of those homage covers here... Marceline and The Scream Queens. There are variant covers for each issue, so there may be even more album homages than i've already found. Perhaps someone more music savvy would know.

I found these online, since I no longer own the TPB, but I'm pretty sure they're from Simpsons Comics #5. This was part of the early 1990s crossover When Bongos Collide, in which an explosion at the nuclear plant leaves everyone in Springfield (except Bart) with superhuman powers:

"Radiation turned Jimbo into Zoidberg?"  -Me, before figuring out it was supposed to be a Grifter-esque mask.

Pretty much all the superhero identities for the Springfieldianites in that crossover were gold. My personal favorite is Vampiredna.
