site posted:e2: guess i missed this last month but domino ending actually has simone rolling it into a team book called hotshots with her and black widow and some other people?? it's a fuckin weird situation, the solo series ending was clearly super rushed, but they're starting a 5-issue series with the exact same creative team and mostly the same characters because ????????

Look up Ralph Macchio Not The Karate Kid But The Comics Guy. They're not gonna bring some old dude out of retirement to do a big event. It'll be some lil vanity miniseries. edit: or one-shot. #1 doesn't mean there'll be more than that. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 23:47 on Jan 22, 2019 |

I guess she's been getting hassled over that sweet Blob cover. https://twitter.com/mymonsterischic/status/1087961546695815170 https://twitter.com/mymonsterischic/status/1087985231901216769 e: The cover, since we're on a new page:

Onmi posted:Immortal Hulk is really loving good guys, like holy poo poo. I couldn't believe he name-dropped Anna Kingsford, one of the most interesting but also one of the most obscure tangential figures in my dissertation. I was beaming. I hope at least a few people googled her after reading this issue because she's so wonderful and weird. Also, someone please walk me through this Leah Williams kerfuffle? I've been around the block a few times but I'm lost on this. I get the element of frustration that characters like Ice Man or Northstar aren't being showcased on the cover, but like, they aren't showcased on the majority of X-Men covers. Is it just because the Blob is conspicuously overweight? edit: FWIW I like the cover a lot. It always sort of bugged me that the Blob's being the way he is was part of his mutant power, but people still wrote him as like the most grotesque caricature of the leering, drooling, stupid glutton. It's one of those things that seemed to run counter to the inclusivity and radical restructuring of what's "beautiful" that should be at the center of mutant stories.

I loved Immortal Hulk, but Ewing's tendency to dilute personal stories with wacky insubstantial metaphysics bugs me a little. It's all great apart from "the gamma that is neither a wave or a particle, the mysterious third form of light!", which could be a fun gimmicky comic book science thing if it was played gentler, or a substantial sci-fi thing if it was played harder, but instead just sits awkwardly between in the middle of a story that's fundamentally about trauma, violence and abuse.

Also if it was not, "there's this mysterious form of energy behind gamma radiation and it's God, metaphorically, but also sort of actually it is God and this is an elaborate hellscape, because of the mysterious third form of energy which...spontaneously generates Hell in connection with gamma radiation?". Actually, that probably hurts it more than anything else for me.

Has there ever been a Hulk story titled Gamma Gamma Hey? *googles* Answer: Yes! Uncanny Avengers #16 and the letters page for She-Hulk volume 5 was titled that for a while.

What you're describing is starting to sound more and more like Argent Energy from DOOM. Eventually you're gonna start to see Imps, Hell Knights, Pinky Demons, Cyberdemons, Revenants, and Bruce is going to internalize the Hulk permanently he gets bulked up in doing so, and ETERNALLY ANGRY AGAINST THE LEGIONS OF HELL. Thus becoming DoomSlayer.
