If her head can change shape, why not just keep it in a regular lady head shape?

Defenders #33. The MSJ posted:"Most" of her is attractive? What a jerk thing to say. No wonder he's a villain. This is after Chondu's brain has been put into Nighthawk's skull, so he's a little disoriented by his surroundings. (Nighthawk's brain was then put into a deer. Because why not.)  Edit: Upon further review of the story, that might not be Nighthawk's brain in the deer. It might be Chondu's. Or Valkyrie's husband's. I'm pretty sure Chondu's brain is in Nighthawk's body, even if Chondu's mind is in the deer and Valkyrie's husband's mind is in Chondu's brain.  Second edit: For anyone interested in Steve Gerber's Defenders, here's a set of interesting blog posts about them. (They're long, but worth it, I think.)

prefect posted:(Nighthawk's brain was then put into a deer. Because The original run of Defenders is some of the weirdest comics of their decade. Hyperion craving vengeance because his world was destroyed because it was the first atom split by earth scientists, the Head Men, the very first Defenders adventure was against a giant vanity robot that would destroy all mankind after it finished a multipage monologue culminating with it shouting it's creators name. That was defeated by Doctor Strange slowing it down in time, so that they could come back in the next millennium to actually solve the problem.

Honestly that comes across as less fanservice and more "people get naked with their loved ones/in the bedroom, grow up." Which is fine by me, comicbooks could use a little growing up.

Though the fact you think that explains why its fanservey. AkumaHokoru posted:unless that's a flashback mystique being underage is a big ol nope. That isn't mystique. She was one of the new mutants introduced after the birth of Hope. I don't even think she is a shapeshifter. CharlestheHammer fucked around with this message at 04:55 on Nov 24, 2013 |

CharlestheHammer posted:That isn't mystique. She was one of the new mutants introduced after the birth of Hope. She is but a very limited one as explained in the Rockslide page. She's a super fast flier and her body also changes shape as she goes beyond supersonic speeds... which is at least an elaborate explanation of why she's essentially a nude underage girl. That explanation sounded lees like an elaborate scheme to get away with being skeevy in my head. SirDan3k fucked around with this message at 16:10 on Nov 24, 2013 |

Then, Chondu-in-Nighthawk's body tried to infiltrate the Defenders, and failed. So the Defenders, once they realized the truth, had Dr. Strange do a mind-swap spell so that Jack Norris's mind was in Chondu's brain in Nighthawk's body, and Chondu's mind was in the deer, so that Jack could infiltrate the Headmen and find Nighthawk's brain. The deer, incidentally, was in Dr. Strange's house because Hulk adopted it after its mother was shot.

Deers don't have minds. More like small series of ganglia clusters that consist of basic actions like "Eat" "poo poo " Run into traffic"

This was the team that ended up accidentally recruiting every superhero (and villain) in New York when Valkyrie's beatnik college buddy was hired to create Defenders ad copy and went off script.

Think that was Dollar Bill (not the DC Watchmen version, more the useless Marvel version), a pre-hipster hipster. He made a documentary of the Defender's battles, sold it to a TV station, and at the end of the documentary said that since the Defenders was the greatest non-team, all you had to do was simply say in public 'I AM A DEFENDER' and boom, you're on the team. Then a whole bunch of people showed up at Richmond Riding Academy wanting in on the Defenders action. The best part was Nighthawk kicking Dollar Bill out of the academy. Edit: BTW, here's who showed up:  Defenders #62 Binary Badger fucked around with this message at 21:01 on Nov 24, 2013 |

It was actually when they lived at Nighthawk's place. The best bit from that was having a dozen heroes hanging onto Hellcat's car as it slowly lurched towards a bank robbery.

I remember an interview once where Grant Morrison pointed out he had no idea how he had a reputation of writing "weird stories" when he could point to old comics where stuff routinely happened like Superman creating a miniature version of himself from his palm to fill in for him on heroic stuff, only the miniature version does such a good job that Superman has a nervous breakdown and needs to go into therapy to deal with being a failure.

Morrison is obsessed with recursion, especially with things having smaller duplicates of itself. He took that tiny Superman story and did his own version for All-Star Superman # 10  An issue earlier someone accuses Superman of failing to free Kandor from its bottle. Superman's scientist friend offers to visit the city and inject some new ideas into an old, stagnant culture. It makes a lot of sense for a city that's been isolated for so long that its inhabitants are really loving antsy to do anything as long as they're out and about.   It's the best Make a Wish visit ever.

If making creepy fanart was a crime, there goes like 75% of the internet. I long ago got over seeing my favorite childhood character (Sonic) do stuff I don't like seeing. Meanwhile, Betty gon' shank someone:
