Yes, leather would suck for a super hero costume. Spandex getting into every crevice wouldn't be much better. Comic book characters do not have to and never have and never will give a poo poo about realism in their outfits, move the hell on.

Reed Richards makes the costumes for every superhero, including the ones in DC. Canon :colbert:

It's not like Banner Spider-Man did a single thing in that miniseries anyway. He was there just because "Peter Parker is the Hulk" was the main part of the story.

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.

Also she's been hanging out with assorted Spider-Mans for weeks now and just got sent to go grab a couple more, she knows they're pretty much all Peter.

This comic is actually way more boring than you'd expect, especially since it comes as a replacement to a comic about people hunting dinosaurs in the past to get meat to people of the future.

I have never understood people's love of it, it's really not that good, perhaps if it had been shorter and not drug on for 16 episodes it would not have been so bad. The longer it went on the more ridiculous it became that neither the CIA nor the KGB could track and kill a single polar bear. I'm generally a big 2000 AD fan but, god drat Shako was a stinker.

Dan Slott is not nearly as bad as people around here make him out to be and the joke and panel are funny and if I'd've shopped Kieron Gillen's name over Slott's y'all would think it was funny too.

It's hardly that grim or gritty of a death. It's pretty funny, actually.

I don't like Slott either, and I know people genuinely don't believe this, but the guy isn't a literal troll trying to actively piss you off with every thing he puts out. Stop looking for reasons to be mad.

It's a humorous page and it just emphasizes that Slott can write well but for some reason continues to poo poo out terrible script month after month.

Tattoo guy is Ink, a fairly recent character who is not a mutant but gets his powers from a mutant tattoo artist than can give other people powers using tattoos.

I am however surprised that you do not recognise Adam X The Extreme. Guess which decade he's from.
