I don't even think Kirby would have to do anything. Just furrow those magnificent brows of his and that's enough punishment for anyone.

7 billion people in the world, 320 million in the USA, and Superman outing Batman's secret identity only gets twenty-five million reposts?

People probably just copy + pasted it rather than repost it to try and look like they were the ones breaking the news.

Google says 974 million twitter accounts right now, but yeah, I'm just being facetious. I'm mostly curious about the context, because right now it looks like the kind of thing you'd find on the old Superdickery site.

It's from Injustice, Joker killed a pregnant Lois Lane so now Superman is a superfascist and Batman is opposing him.

Wheat Loaf posted:In fairness to Johns, the older guys in the JSA take him aside and tell him it's not appropriate and he quits the team (because his magical wisdom won't let him tell them his true identity). Which is kinda stupid, because you'd figure if you can trust anyone with that secret, it's Jay Garrick and Alan Scott.

Binary Badger posted:Pretty sure there was a thought balloon above Kirby's head with Stan Lee's face leering at him when he wrote this. The best part about Funky Flashman was not only that it was a savage parody of Stan Lee, it also skewered Roy Thomas (as "Houseroy," Funky's sniveling servant), depicted Marvel Comics as a slave plantation and gave away the secret of Stan's toupee.

Stan's look from AFTER this time period has become so iconic and so associated with his name, that readers today won't recognize how on point that caricature was. Here's what Lee looked like at the time that issue came out: http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/funkyflashman8.jpg I've heard that part of the reason he changed his look was because of Funky Flashman, but that may be apocryphal.
