I really recommend reading the whole thing, it's full of fun designs like that and is basically just a love letter to the FF and early Marvel in general. It's also pretty loving funny:

SNATTER'S ALIVE?!?!
Same issue. This might be the worst comic book handwaving explanation I've ever seen.

Superman and the Flash are out in interstellar space racing each other to save their hometowns because of alien plot fuckery. The aliens have used devious means like transparent shower stalls, a flame cage, yellow energy beams and Wonder Woman's lasso to capture the rest of the JLA. Suddenly, Superman busts in, only for this to happen:



So let's review.

1) J'onn only has his crippling pyrophobia at this stage of his career when he's not in his native Martian form, so that much is accurate. By pretending to be Superman he could bypass the flame cage if the writer remembers that it works that way, and his powers are certainly sufficient to imitate Superman's. The aliens came to JLA HQ prepared to gently caress with Superman, so having a box with Gold K in it is a plausible backup plan even if one can't just run down to Kryptonite-Mart and pick some up for just such an eventuality. Whatever.

But it's shape-shifting, not body-swapping. If J'onn shape-shifts into Zatanna's form he can't just grin and say FFOKCUF NEILA MUCS and magically zap the alien intruders halfway to Pluto. "Your Gold Kryptonite removed my Martian ability to pretend to be Kryptonian" is... um... odd.

2) LOOK WHAT I JUST DID WITH MY MARTIAN SCIENCE JUST BY STARING AT THIS ROCK!

3) So, hey, The Rock That Only Affects Kryptonians knocked out your ability to pretend to be Kryptonian, J'onn. Now all you have left are Superman-class strength, speed, intangibility, invisibility, telepathy, energy beams, telekinesis and shape-shifting into anything that ISN'T Kryptonian. Plus MARTIAN SCIENCE. Maybe you could free your teammates or at least take Aquaman out of that diabolical plastic deathtrap. Or vanish and regroup and come up with a new plan. Or you could just stand there, explain to the intruders exactly what you did and how, and then just hold still in your flame-vulnerable normal shape and wait to be captured the same way they got you the first time.

Maybe he got a telepathic message from E. Nelson Bridwell saying "This isn't your book, wait your turn."

The context of this panel is that Veronica goes to the beach with a newfangled changing cabinet. The idea is that a person goes to the beach, unfolds this cabinet, and can change without anyone seeing them. She tries this but there is a lot of struggling involved. Eventually, the cabinet explodes open and she is wearing pants for a shirt and a shirt for pants. Betty then rips the arms off of the 'pants', making them shorts. Veronica then parades around the beach as it is heralded as a new pinnacle of style.

See, it's my understanding that Female Circumcision is actually a loving terrible thing that should be condemned. But isn't male circumcision much less traumatic? I mean, I'm no doctor & obviously there's questions of consent and stuff, but I don't think it's ever been scientifically confirmed to be traumatic-

Never mind, I guess the author blames his circumcision for being unable to get it up. Which I guess is supposed to justify making a vaguely anti-Semitic comic, somehow?

Also 'Intactivist'? That's the best they could come up with?

You loose a lot of sensitivity in the glans, sure but if it's done while you're a baby then you'll never know any different.

I guess it could seem more damaging if it's done when you're into adulthood. (Having it done while an adult also means about 3-6 months of going commando in the baggiest pants you can find, which I guess could also be traumatic)

Either way there's no comparison with FGM, and no connection with erectile dysfunction AFAIK.

Male circumcision has no real upside so it's kind of a stupid thing to do except in rare cases where infections necessitate it. It is not comparable to "female circumcision", which is a misnomer because men don't get their glans cut off.

The Question IRL
Jun 8, 2013

Only two contestants left! Here is Doom's chance for revenge...

The Male Circumcision thing is an odd debate. From a scientific point of view, many on the Pro-Circumcision side (from countries where it is practised like the US.) are very keen to champion it for health benefits and the argument that "you won't really notice the difference." Those against it (effectively all of Europe) will point to the fact that there is little actual health benefits at all to it that can't be replicated with normal cleaning and that it is a procedure carried out for traditional reasons.

The scientific article website Mosaic had a very interesting article about it (published in February of this year) where they not only looked at the historical and medical arguments behind it, but more disturbingly, how it is being used in Africa as part of a low cost method of combating HIV, with serious evidence it's doing more harm then good.

That being said, using charactertures of Jews, is really not the way to go.


So anyway, enough about that.
While looking through my old Flash issues, I came across these pics.



That's a fairly honest admission there Wally.





And there's Wally wishing he had a Queen song named after him.

Both from Flash #227 (Dec 05.)

And I was torn on posting these ones of Jay Garrick (the Greatest Flash) in this thread or the Bad rear end, but decided to put them here.

Well, when you think about it...

She physically wouldn't be able to have sex with a man who wasn't invulnerable *everywhere*. Even her trying to be *gentle* while in Hulk form would probably leave a guy in the ICU as a best case scenario. And if she reverted back to normal, there'd still be a biohazard as I think gamma-doped blood is extremely dangerous to 'normies.'

Jen's acknowledged it, too:



And: http://arousinggrammar.com/2012/07/12/she-hulk-loves-juggernaut/ (too many post-worthy panels on this page to copy to here)

Source: Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk, but the other woman is Betty Ross, and later on, she flirts with Wolverine and confirms his joints and bones are laced with Adamantium. The disembodied voice is Wolverine talking to Fury.



One of the most interesting things I remember about the pre-New 52 Wonder Woman was when she first brought Nemesis to Themyscira to meet her mother, he asked if she could feel it when he touched her, and she said 'no.'

And lastly:
