If Punisher can spend his downtime baiting and killing pedos on the internet, there's no way freaking Sin-eater or something isn't googling himself nonstop and making a "to-murder" list.

You'd piss off Carnage, who canonically has the ability to kill people over the Internet.

I'd be the guy who interrupts a 1980s Spider-Man story three times an issue for a single page of a seemingly unrelated and rather boring interlude, all building to something down the road that gets abandoned because they hired a new writer who wasn't interested in the previous guy's pet character.

I think the last time she showed up she was being used as a bomb by mutant extremists, back in... the San Fransisco days, I wanna say? But they saved her, so at least there's that.

Anyway, have a funny.

That may be, but wearing a costume definitely gives you a chance of living that your Average Joe simply doesn't get in a comic. Even if you say "Well I'd just move out of NYC since that's where the bad things happen", then you're rolling the dice and hoping your new town doesn't end up completely annihilated as part of some event.

I'm sure that's probably just a Silver Age fake-out cover but just looking at it I am amazed that Grant Morrison never brought this guy back during his Batman run.

I was reading through an old collection and got to an issue where the villain was a caveman trapped in a block of ice, who could magically fly around and somehow move his body and bonk people with a club while still encased.

I looked it up and he was used exactly once :(

I feel like Batman comics always perfectly encapsulate the era they're printed in. Wasn't their a study done years ago that show he's the single most prolific comic character by a wide margin?

I'm surprised that what I assumed was a joke villain made up for Bizarro Comics was actually a real one-off character. The backstory and premise just seemed so goofy...

"Do you want to talk to a spider, Peter?"



I have this issue. I love this issue.

He went to college with Bruce Wayne and recognizes him by his cologne. I forget the bullshit they used to outsmart him, but he had a cool concept of being the crime eraser; where he'd "erase" the evidence at a crime scene. Really can't believe he hasn't been used in the last twenty years. He's at the top of my list after Batmanga and Morrison used Death Man.

I think one of the Lego Batman Movie blind bag figures are of this guy. I don't know how accurate the blind bag bump codes are this series or else I'd probably be trying to get one of him because he struck me as sort of a fun odd Lego minifig design.

It's Batman #372, and he's using the term in its original meaning to refer to an object to which supernatural power is ascribed.

Master Mold merged with Nimrod. The X-Men kept trashing the thing, but it kept reforming it - so they forced it through the Siege Perilous.

In an industry full of fabulous hair and huge bandoliers, you know Longshot has it made when it's still distinct enough to recognize him with those alone.

...I'm hoping that actually is Longshot, it's been ages since I've read that :downs:
