One More Fat Nerd posted:They were aimed in that general direction, but I think its hard to overstate the extent to which the election and, especially, re-election of Obama really kicked up the intensity. I lost my housing thanks to Obama's re-election. Though it would be more accurate to blame the person I was living with, who gets all her political views from Fox News and was afraid total economic collapse would follow. As I was unemployed at the time, she decided she could no longer support my broke rear end and told me I had two weeks to find another arrangement. This was my grandmother.

That's your grandma being a psychotic rear end in a top hat, most of the time families pull together to help each other out during times of economic uncertainty.

Wanderer posted:There's another Trump-as-President take in the "Zombo" strip that Al Ewing did for 2000 A.D. I only read it earlier this year. The thing of it is that they aren't weirdly prescient even if they are extremely accurate because the trump in the stories, much like the real Trump, takes the easiest, least effort, most played out route to power. Both trump and Trump exploited people's fears and hatreds to con them into giving him power. It's like when people say a politician is doing something "just like Hitler" when, yeah, they are, because Hitler used common political tricks to exploit people. ALL politicians are going to use on of those tricks and always have. All those stories do is extrapolate common tricks a lovely con man would use to gain power and, SURPRISE, a lovely con man used those same common tricks to gain power! Red hats, brown shirts, walls, "the other is keeping you down", "only I can save you", stupid gimmicks, "bygone days when we were great"; predicting a lovely con man will use that poo poo to gain power is like "predicting" there will be a crash on a race track, it's not amazing, it's just what happens. I just can't believe we're still falling for this basic bullshit

amishjosh posted:Was all this inspired by Fletcher Hanks? Gorilla head transplants and shrinking bones, jesus. Gerber literally went back to all the old Atlas era horror and monster stories, pulled out 3 of the most batshit crazy ones, and made them part of 616 continuity. Then he rounded it out by adding a woman who replaced her head with an organic computer shaped like a red plastic ball and had her run for president. Gorilla Man had his head placed on a gorilla body. Chondu was a mystical magician that had his body replaced with an amalgamation of mythical creature parts. Shrunken Bones essentially tried a Pym-particle type formula but only succeeded in shrinking his skeleton, so his flesh just hangs loose now. The running gag with them is Chondu is always getting his head removed and placed on different things - the aforementioned weird creature, Nighthawk, a fawn, the She-hulk, a robotic spider.... God I miss Steve Gerber....

Gann Jerrod posted:Monsters Unleashed II #6 Scragg needs to work on his people skills. I was kinda soured on the concept from the terrible event comic, but then I read the comic and remembered it's a comic about a kid who loves giant mecha and monsters and co-stars Elsa Bloodstone, which it seemed the writers suddenly remembered too, and had fun with.

Teenage Fansub posted:The next issue is for the Bat-Cyborg mashup. The cover features a death tank with Batman's face on the front, Thomas the Tank Engine style, so I'm guessing they're all going to be supremely ridiculous. I think you mean Golden Age Jokermobile style, which gets my seal of approval. Also,

Considering that Luke is nigh-on physically invulnerable, and *doesn't* have a source of free/cheap unstable-molecule or otherwise really-high-durability clothing, I'd expect that his Sweet Christmas Tree has been seen by a hell of a lot of super-types during/after fights.
