That does imply the editor also told Bendis he couldn't let Barry say "crap" either, because that would've got the same point across and sound like a thing people actually say.

Well, if they're going to tell him to do that, why can't they just tell him to rewrite the line?

My husband hosts a trivia night at our local bar, and I always help him come up with the questions every week. Now I'm curious, and it sounds like a good question: what was the first comic to use random punctuation to indicate swearing, anyone know offhand? edit : Huh. Just looked it up for myself. They're called grawlixes, and first use was Katzenjammer Kids in 1902. That's two good questions, thanks thread! JacquelineDempsey fucked around with this message at 22:57 on Jul 1, 2018 |

Ugh, I hate when writers try to shoehorn in complex technical lingo and get it wrong. It's "turn it off and on again".

It's simple. You turn it on, thus proving the issue was that it wasn't on in the first place. Then you turn it off again because the service technician is already on their way and at least this way you don't have to *admit* you didn't check whether it was turned on.

The best part of Green Lantern Lobo is how it's so simple and lacking of drama after all these dramatic arguments. Hal Jordan: Red Lantern Starro needs to be stopped. Salaak, give me a ring. Salaak: Absolutely not! You've betrayed the Green Lanterns and you will never be one of us again! Hal: This isn't about redemption. This is about necessity. The Red Lanterns are too powerful. Salaak: Very well. Sinestro: What about me? Salaak: No way! Sinestro: My daughter is in danger! Salaak: You aren't getting a green ring, Sinestro! Hal: Give him a green ring. He was really good at it, remember? We don't have time! Salaak: Fine! FINE! Just go save the universe! Lobo: Give me a ring. Salaak: ...okay.

Absolutely mind-blowing gauntlet from Puma. Pete heard about Puma's gauntlet abilities.  And Pete gets a phone call from Matt Murdock during the Born Again arc. He tells Spidey that Kingpin found out his secret identity, and might know Spider-Man's as well. Peter, being the decent dude he is, decides to have a talk with Wilson about what he's doing but Kingpin is his usual "you can't touch me" self. So this is how he gets back at him for ruining a good man's life.

I prefer beating Fisk within an inch of his life in front of other convicts while Fisk is in jail, then letting him know he can do this any time, and if Aunt Mary does die, he's coming back to finish the job. It's not great because he beats him up, per se; it's great because for Kingpin, it's the ultimate case of losing face. His physical superiority is gone, and he can't hold him in mental checkmate, either, because he already made his big move. And Fisk abhors losing face.

Given that only Lobo can kill Lobo, that'd be an actual credible threat. Maybe Bike Lobo ends up with a Red Lantern power ring and they have themselves a christmas light show fight in space.
