"rape" means "to seize." That usage is increasingly archaic, but that panel is essentially calling Galactus a thief.

Batman, unknown source. Unknown context, most likely drugs were involved in the writing process.

One of these days there will be a comic writer that puts more thought into naming their characters than looking up their power in a Thesaurus.

See if you can find the special guest star in Black Widow #6:  Just another day in New York for Clint Barton. I love him whistling walking away from the crash in the background.

I've been half-liking the new She-Hulk book just for the writing (the art just seems weird and makes her look like she's got  ), but this sequence is worth posting. The backstory (if you haven't read the book) is that she succeeded in winning US asylum for Doctor Doom's son Kristoff, but he literally stole him out of the courtroom after winning. So She-Hulk decides to go and have a chat with Doom, and...     "DO NOT WRECK THIS GIGANTIC DOOM" should be in the running for a new thread title.

I know Clint's taking a jab at the outdated slang, but I really like the idea of him ending every conversation with Steve by saying "You are old."

Doom's a very old man(Assuming he's even alive these days and hasn't downloaded to a Doombot or something) and someone who's basically done it all. Very good on the resume, doesn't help much when raising someone to be the successor.

Someone in a Asgard comic book having an unusually appropriate name is, well, mythologically consistent. Now if that happened in a Captain America book...

I still like the idea in 2099 that Doom is a legacy villain, that he takes a Kristoff like apprentice, raises them to be like him, and when he is weak he has the apprentice kill him and switch identities. The erasure of others whole sense of self to become exactly as he was strikes me as an appropriate level of arrogance for Doom

That wasn't what happened in Doom 2099 though, the real Doom had his memories tampered with by his partner at the time as part of their ongoing game. He then killed the poor sap who thought he was Doom.

Pretty much all of the big names in comics are ancient at this point, but don't actually grow older, only we do, or they get retconned so they're now suddenly younger and didn't fight in Vietnam.

(Incidentally, that one's going to help out the Fantastic Four, since their origin can have them rushing to space trying to privatize spaceflight.) On the other hand, it's going to get awkward explaining Batwoman's further along the line.

Yeah, there's a lot of panels even in those five pages that show the weirdness of the art isn't because it's bad but an actual artistic choice. I don't know why but it gives me a bit of an Allred feel.

Yeah, if I didn't know, I could swear this comic was drawn by Allred, has that kinda broad colors and 60's faces feel.
