Well dammit, now someone has to post Spidey's "I'm summoning the spiders." sequence again (mainly because I can't for the life of me remember what it was from).

So OG Loki or whatever it was the All-Mother released has gone back in time to influence the future. As part of his plan, he needs to steal a Dwarf's gold, but the Dwarf in question has turned itself into a giant pike because Norse Mythology is kind of wacky like that. Luckily, Loki has planned ahead before coming to the past. (Loki: Agent of Asgard #3) Ensign_Ricky fucked around with this message at 19:23 on Apr 2, 2014 |

My question is if it's recoiless, what's with Loki's goofy rear end posture after he shoots it?

Ensign_Ricky posted:My question is if it's recoiless, what's with Loki's goofy rear end posture after he shoots it? "Recoilless" does not mean "zero recoil". A recoilless weapon has ports in the back of it that permit some of the propellant gases to escape, creating a thruster that reduces the recoil of the projectile launch long enough that the launch tube remains stable.

Looking at this art, I remember why I really used to like John Byrne. That's some pretty strong composition, storytelling and fairly delicate line work for the time. I especially like the heavy shadows on Ben. Was Austin still inking Byrne's stuff in FF back then?

It's his last really good work, outside of a handful of issues of She-Hulk.

fatherdog posted:Art wasn't the reason people stopped liking Byrne. I looked up some quotes of his to remind myself, and these two were right on top of each other. quote:I have been pilloried for my work on Superman, Spider-Man, Doom Patrol, and in the early days even FF and X-Men, yet I have never once said the creators of those series/characters “didn’t get it right.” It disgusts me not only to read Gaiman saying this—about Jack Kirby of all people!—but to see the cartwheels people are willing to turn in order to make his words seem other than what they are. Apparently, dissing one of the greatest talents this industry has produced is okay, as long as you’re on the Approved List. Next, how Eisner screwed up the Spirit, and Lee and Ditko on Spider-Man—what the heck were they thinking?? Maybe you should keep in mind, then, that the only person who knows if a creator “got it right” is the creator himself. quote:As I have noted elsewhere, and with the clarity of hindsight, I think Stan and Jack made a mistake when they decided to make Thor the “real” Thor.

fatherdog posted:Art wasn't the reason people stopped liking Byrne. Before I found out what a huge jerk he was, I had stopped liking him because his art had gotten rushed and sloppy compared to what he used to do - though to be fair the bad art also meant I was more likely to notice the bad writing too. Spider-Man Chapter One was when I really realized,"Yeah, this guy isn't bringing it anymore." Then again, I never read Next Men, that was the one with the Senator pedophiles, wasn't it?

Man, everybody's fuckin' somebody in the comics; little kids, aliens, dead clones, earth elementals - it's just a thing. Can't get angry at that. You just have to shrug it off, fold it up and shove it in the fridge with all the dead girlfriends.

Ultimate Spider-Man 200: Peter Parker's family and friends gather to throw a little party honoring the 2-year anniversary of Peter's death. Eventually somebody poses the question of what do you think things would be like if Peter had lived? Everybody has different answers, but here's Bobby Drake's: (The joke is that this terrible idea is pretty much the exact idea of the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, which is horrible)
