Yeah, I'm a big fan, though I've been reading it in volumes rather than singles so I only just got through issue 12. The art is gorgeous.

Rhyno posted:poo poo, I forgot that canonically Kirby is God. This just makes me think of the exchange from Airheads "Who wins in a wrestling match, Lemmy or God?" "Lemmy?" "WRONG!" "GOD?" "BZZZT! WRONG AGAIN! Trick question, LEMMY IS GOD!

There was an entire issue about this in Alan Moore's run on Supreme. After proceeding through a succession of scenarios that are as transparent knock-offs of Kirby characters as the title character was of Superman, this scene unfolds: Supreme: The Return #6. This may be the wrong thread, but I don't care and neither should you.

Stan Lee gets the movie cameos, but he's never been a god.

Gaz-L posted:And if I remember, this was Cyborg's answer to Batman taking down the JLA Watchtower's comm system to stop them broadcasting it. Setting up a Twitter for Superman. Even better. This was Damian (Bruce's own son) suggestion at how to get back at Batman after he locked up the Justice League in the Watchtower.

I present Fidel Castro owning Wally West in a political discussion. It's mostly funny because I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to read that way.

I'm not seeing an elbow in any of that. Is his one wrist just, like, attached at a perpendicular angle to the underside of his forearm?

RandomFerret posted:I'm not seeing an elbow in any of that. Is his one wrist just, like, attached at a perpendicular angle to the underside of his forearm? I think the elbow is facing the viewer, and he's holding a helmet under his arm? His arm that is clearly held perpendicular to the ground so the helmet wouldn't fit? And that doesn't line up with his torso if that's where his helmet is? Look, I'm still trying to figure out the neck, which seems to be positioned directly over his right leg.

I appreciate how his legs just stop at the floor in a flat line, like they're supposed to be phasing through the surface or something. Not even an attempt to create feet or even hide them, just squaring his legs against the surface and calling it done.

Ignite Memories posted:HOW DID THIS MAN MAKE A LIVING DRAWING COMICS It was the 90's. And this was Youngblood (Or was this WildCATS?), which if I remember my history correctly means Image. And Image didn't answer to any comics authority (but did self regulate), so you had Not-Wolverine there, with the Not-Xmen, except with all the blood, sex, violence and cursing that were not offered by the big 2 at the time. Imagine if an entire publisher was making comics like Punisher: Max, at a time when traditional, classic comic characters were seen as campy, and stupid and lame compared to the XTREME! 90's contemporaries. It was darker, and more 'real' and that fake kind of 'mature'. I didn't matter if most of the art was ugly and anatomically impossible, there was a chance to see someone get beheaded in full color with a collectible foil variant cover. Oh and maybe some titty. And what little 13 year old would pass up the chance to maybe see underboob, sideboob, and their friend violence under the guise of a harmless comic book. I don't know if Image ever outsold any of the regulars, but it did make an impact on the bottom line, and a big enough one for guys like Rob and Todd to make a good living for a while.
