Gaz-L posted:I liked that bit better when Brent Spiner did it for a decade. It's actually very much the opposite. I don't want to get into details or post panels because it's a loving fantastic comic that I was ready to turn my nose up at and assume I hate until I actually read it but it's about artificial but very flawed and human beings coming to terms with being a family. They lie to each other and they lie to outsiders to protect each other. They suffer trauma and commit some pretty awful acts. Probably the core concept is just how hosed up they are and very much not rational or logical. Read the first couple of issues or buy the TPB which should come out soon, see if you can disagree.

From Doom Patrol #34, Monsieur Mallah and the Brain break into the Doom Patrol's base to steal Robot Man's new body and discuss philosophy. Robot Man is currently having his body worked on, but everyone stepped out for lunch, so he's just a blind and deaf ol' jar of brain. Also this was probably for the best as his body achieved sentience and was debating about whether he should kill Robot Man so he could maintain free will. Also there's kissing.

My favorite is when Batman and Robin get super strength because they are in a low gravity "gravity well" caused by the surface of the Earth pulling them back up from the core. Also for some reason only they get superpowers and not everyone else.

It also features a secret cabal of mystical creatures, such as the ur-Grey Alien, and a jive talking, beatnick wizard. I'm half convinced this is a terrible read by how ridiculously amazing it looks.

50% of the story is Adams trying to explain how the earth is hollow and expanding (because he actually believes it). Earth works just like this geode!

BetterToRuleInHell posted:Why is every panel 'CLOSE-UP SHOT / next shot'? People keep recommending this comic but every panel they post drives me crazy with GIANT CLOSE UP every single time. It's a comic you read BECAUSE of the things that drive you crazy. Everything about it is pretty terrible. There are like 5 issues devoted to Talia very obviously hinting something big to Batman to the point that a child could get it and him not getting it. And Boston Brand EXPLAINING THIS in the background. And it opens with a story within a story that has nothing to do with anything else in the book, and kind of hashes it between another story within a story in such a way that it's hard to tell which is which.

Lord Hydronium posted:Why is Godzilla wearing shoes here: I'm reminded of a parody Cracked magazine ran at the time (back when they were still the knock off version of Mad magazine) where it's one page and the internet isn't helping me find it. Godzilla comes up to giant Barkley wanting a rematch, and Sir Charles mocks him because he still doesn't have his own pair of Nikes to play in. So Godzilla roasts him with his atomic breath. The final panel is Big G putting on Charles' still-smoking shoes that are all that's left of him, whistling to himself.
