That's Gerry Duggan, the writer of the issue. I don't think it's intended that he's specifically interacting with Domino, but the issue does feature a lot of backstories with Copycat in them who spent a whole X-Force arc impersonating Domino, so maybe he's just double-checking?

There really is no difference. It's dominated by creepy nerds, who worship sexual deviants who literally are incapable of keeping their weird fetishes out of their work as gods of their craft, and everyone who has figurines of either should still be embarrassed.

Except manga murders teen characters less, I guess. Comics hate their teens.

We have a p. solid protocol, I thought: manga are comics, and comics are fine. Anime is sick filth, unless it's on the Safe List (Graveyard of the Fireflies, anything that aired in the "right before you left for school" time slot, anything that had a wildly popular toyline associated with it in the west before 9/11, and we can argue about Astro Boy).

1. Who is the Thing with a woman's head?

So the Fantastic Four had to do some crazy space/time bullshit that should only have taken a few minutes, but in case that went wrong they each picked some replacements to watch the kids at the Future Foundation and keep an eye on things while they were gone. Reed picked Scott Lang [Because he'd just come back from the dead and lost his daughter and they thought it'd be good for him], Sue picked Medusa, Ben picked She-Hulk, and Johnny.....completely forgot he was supposed to get someone, and picked the random pop starlet he was dating at the time. So they gave her a Thing suit that was lying around the compound so she wouldn't horrifically die. On the plus side she got to be part of a super team that kicked the living poo poo out of Doctor Doom, and that is always fun.

I'm assuming you mean the one where she invents a persona to get Deadpool to fall in love with her then leaves to teach him some vague kind of lesson, but there's like three or more others with her in them with varying degrees of creep and bad.

I meant the one where she has repeated one night stands with him in fake personalities after he thought she died, and it's supposed to be her watching over him and read as sweet, but it's, you know, rape.

No, it was just a really bad backup in the Red Hulk comic that seemed like an excuse to have Domino get naked and nothing else.

I mean I guess if you get a chance to make a talented artist draw your comic book waifu naked and get paid for it, you take it?

At least it featured the return of my favorite Marvel villain, A Truck, with a new costume to boot.

Nah. Betty and Bruce got the short end of the gamma stick. She-Rulk is just as much an alternate personality as regular Hulk's normally seen. Just instead of animal rage, it's more resentment.

Thunderbolt and Jen are the ones that stay mostly themselves, just a little louder when Hulked out.

My favorite bit of characterization from the classic G.I. Joe comics was that Roadblock, the heavy machine gunner, was an aspiring gourmet chef who joined the Army to earn tuition to prestigious culinary schools in France.

So when he's not doing this...



He can be found doing this...

Well originally Red Hulk was going to be Betty but somebody was able to convince Loeb that was stupid and she got her own slightly less stupid Hulk form.
