Maybe I'm the weirdo, but I find every part of that MM page adorable. Including Barda having to keep her knees up to fit in the front seat of that economy class car.

It reminds me of all the Asguardian ladies crashing Jane Foster's walk-in clinic and being observably huge.  Sadly I don't have the panel with them all in the waiting room and the terrified normal person cowering the corner handy.

Choco1980 posted:economy class car It's an Aston Martin DB5, James Bond's car from Goldfinger. So, it's probably roomy enough inside for Sean Connery, who is 6'2" or was before his spine compressed as he got older... Not for nothing is she Big Barda.

We should absolutely let the actions of minorities change the world, giving them more power. We should stop thinking of Nazis as minorities, and properly recognize them as enemies of humanity.

Mister Miracle is probably one of the best things DC is publishing right now, and this week's issue is probably the best of the series so far. Just throwin that out there if anyone hasn't read it.

The honey badger thing was a minor internet memetics thing from well before the Late Unpleasantness, and also, Mister Miracle looks amazing.

Either the first or second time he tried to kill literally everyone in Mega City One. The wall around the city was built to keep them escaping his death squads, it wasn't there at the start of Dredd. No, seriously.

Toshimo posted:gently caress you for posting a panel with a cliffhanger like that! IIRC, he was going to hold a mass execution, but since Judge Dredd had Judge Fish killed, Judge Cal is too heartbroken to go through with it. Come to think of it, I don't think Dredd was ever held to account for his killing of a fellow Judge...

My favorite part of that storyline was how the writer realized that making so many judges side with Cal made them seem like brainless villains, so he introduced a plot element where Cal had been secretly using brainwashing tapes on them near the conclusion of the arc.
