I don't know what you guys are talking about It's funny because the writer thinks he's improving the character by pissing on it!

Great, I look forward to Herc being a c-list comic relief that shows up whenever Greg Pak has some free time again or somebody needs a beefy bisexual guy for a gay joke. Hoo-ray.

No lie, Shazam + Captain America is honestly one of the best of the goofy crossover ideas. (Especially making him Freddy and not Billy.) "Trickery of Nixon" goes a bit far but still.

Thinking way too hard right now about what Captain America supporting character could become the other half of Daniel Tawny Tiger.

Much like 10 Beers is obligated to post that same poo poo in every panel thread for some reason, I am obligated to mention that the What If about Galactus turning into Elvis is unironically my all-time favorite comic story. Too bad the rest of the issue is terrible.

For me the punchline isn't the next page, but that if you pasted your face over the Red Skull's then you're no longer the Red Skull, you're just a nazi.

This is actually fairly liberal compared to movie Magneto, who will straight up kill everyone given a sufficient reason.

It's a miracle!" And then post it in the Ruin the Moment Thread. The Unbreakable Johann Scmidt. Sadly my copy of photoshop has been broken for a long while.

The way the sequence actually goes in the next issue is pretty strong and weird all on it's own, without need for Photoshop. He's about to break and just give up and die, he's hallucinating, but the last hallucination is Captain America(Going all 'I expected better of you' and such)...and from that, he draws the strength and hatred to survive. And he hates himself for it. I think it turned up here a few times. Bloodly fucked around with this message at 11:21 on Feb 20, 2016 |

He's probably sulking down there for a few days going, "Ja?! Well, der Jerk store called, and they're running out of YOU! Ja, I'm totally going to burn him with that the next time I see him!"

Jump, grab handle, wedge self into square space underneath with the power of nazi superscience, push the hatch open enough to get fingers in gap, haul self out.
