Pretty creative! Probably needlessly complex though when we all should have been fine with "shoots energy".

The entire point of this is "Here's the universes that are horrible and should never exist and literally crumble under the weight of how much they should not exist." That said it's still a bad comic. I had hopes that at least they were gonna all be FUN, dumb over the top stuff like The Red Death was, with Batman strapping The Flash to a batmobile that is also a cosmic treadmill and then ramping it into the Speed Force, but I guess I should have figured out that wouldn't be the case LAST week.

I still can't get over the fact that he's called The Green Lantern and all his powers come from a magic ring. (Yes, I know he has to occasionally recharge the ring inside the lantern or something, but still)

Ghostlight posted:If it helps it's because the entire concept is based on Aladdin. In the original story there is the well-known magic lamp with a djinn in it, but he obtains this through the use of a magic ring he is given by a sorcerous stranger which also contains a djinn but of lesser power - the lamp itself is the ends, but the ring is the active means through which it is gotten, lost, and retrieved over the course of the story. Is that also why he was named Alan?

Sentinel Red posted:My absolute fav moment from a largely wonderful first 100 issues is the story where Cobra trick the US government into detonating a megaton's worth of explosive in the Gulf of Mexico to destroy a sham bunker on the sea bed, resulting in an earthquake that drags a big chunk of land up above sea level. Cobra immediately stake a claim on it and send in a squad of lawyers to the UN for official recognition as a sovereign state, which is granted. It ends with CC gleefully remarking that if you have enough money and buy the best lawyers, you can do anything you want while the Joes dejectedly slink off with their tails between their legs. OK, OK, one more post, but only because I was just working on my writeup for that issue...

Science? The first year or two of transformers is a goldmine for this stuff. Someone needs to post issue 13 (?) where some crappy hoodlum finds Megatron stuck in gun mode and becomes the city's most dangerous criminal. Much like GI Joe, tho, that series was so much better than it had any right to be.

I liked Circuitbreaker. I liked how Marvel wasn't afraid to explore different ideas in their comics. Real talk: The 'Nam still holds up. The middle or so definitely becomes a bit less focused, but goddamn does that series still hold up. Hama strikes again.
