MJ was right though. Having Purps screaming while a tarp covers him is way more fun than an unconscious purple man

This arc's been almost as gloriously stupid as the Clown Nine arc.

I still want to see this Daredevil conversation where he imparted Killgrave's secret weakness. "So this purple guy controls people with his voice?" "Yeah but if you throw something on him he flips the gently caress out" "What? Like what?" "Just boxes or sheets or anything. It's really weird. I found it out by accident." "Wonder what that's about" "Who knows but a tarp fell on him during our last confrontation and he ran screaming into a wall so hard he got amnesia."

When was this legendary Clown Nine arc published? I keep hearing people talking about it, and I'm really curious about what that arc could have been about. The other thing I hear people bring up is Rocket Racoon being Peter's son?

ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:When was this legendary Clown Nine arc published? They might be linked in the OP, but can't remember exactly dates. You really need to see it, but the gist is a failed comedian dress up as a clown and use gadgets to cause mischief and somehow Spider-Man is powerless to stop him. The other is a later arc where Peter and MJ meets Rocket during a road trip and had to pretend he's their son in a costume when people asked.

The best part is that Clown Nine's descent into villainy involves dialogue to the effect of, "When I wear this clown costume, I'll be on cloud nine...so I'll call myself Clown Nine!".

Man I should really go through the archives and read from the beginning I guess, poo poo sounds whack. Might as well find out where gronk first originated as well.

You have to read the Rocket Racoon arc, it’s as wonderful and pure as the love Peter and MJ had for their beautiful space-son

Are we sure that MJ doesn't have some kind of latent reality-warping power and this has been the greatest long-game in comic book history? It would explain a lot.

ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:Man I should really go through the archives and read from the beginning I guess, poo poo sounds whack. Gronk was the Lizard/Hulk arc from last year (?). It was the strip's idea of the sound an alligator makes. My favorite is when Spider-Man is shrunk down and realizing that while he has the proportional strength of a spider, so does a spider.

Gronk is from the Everglades arc which was before the Iron Fist arc before this one.

This is literally a plot point from a Daredevil comic that is 55 years old And even then he had the sense to tie him up quickly and not rely on Purple Man lacking the ability to remove a sheet from his head

Wait, so back in the day, Purple Man was just a man wearing purple? That's somehow more grounded and far less outlandish than the current comic.

Haifisch posted:Clown 9 starts in April 2012, but yes, I can highly recommend reading it all. NSM has been batshit for literal decades. When you consider that Miles Morales saved most of the Marvel Universe with an old cheeseburger he found in his pocket, it's not that far off model. Speaking of batshit, I see that Facebook's "On This Day" reminded me that I finished Old Man Logan a few years ago today. What I wouldn't give for that kookoo-bananas horseshit to have been adapted instead of mutating into Logan.

Zerilan posted:Wait what Doom created the Doomiverse (I think I'm not mixing stories up) by imprisoning a guy with reality-warping powers who's name I forget. That guy was put in the center of the earth or a pocket dimension or something, able to live forever but still hungry (insert Chrono Trigger reference here). When Miles found him he gave him a burger that had been in his pocket for weeks, and the guy was so grateful that when they won and set things right he changed the reset reality so Miles's parents were still alive.
