I genuinely respect how openly despised she was. If a late night host made the same sorta jokes about Reagan's death that I saw about Thatcher on British television when she died there'd have been a good chance they'd lose their job.

It's delightful just how much people loving hate her https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-4FJcnX0i8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmmomV-ax-s Also to make this comic related. Maggie Thatcher is a female captain britain and the rest of the team are all teen boys she has to scold after they beat up Nazis..... It's weird.

Payndz posted:Full context: this is from Super Babylon, in which Marshal Law - a government-licensed vigilante (and self-loathing superhero) tasked with bringing down rogue supers - is fighting the reanimated zombies of the Jesus League of America, WW2-era superheroes who by strange coincidence are expies of Silver and Gold-Age characters. Thanks for that, because without context it really seems like a genuine edgelord showing why his nazi superhero is better than those mainstream ones.

It's important to remember that part of this was because Regan died first. And when he did the Republicans went into overdrive to Lionise him. ("He ended the Cold War. He beat the Soviets.") While at the same time shutting down disent. ("The man just died! Any attempt to criticise his legacy is politics and shouldn't be done. Now let's go back to talking about how great he was.") The Right in the UK tried to do the exact same thing with Thatcher but people weren't having it.

There's no ridiculous panels thread, but this sequence from the Human Target #6 warrants posting somewhere. For context, Guy Gardner just walked in on Chance and Ice in a frosty post-coital glow and he wasn't too happy about it.

Yeah, I like the art too and I did legitimately chuckle at the reference/gasp at the brutality. Good day for funny books, bad day for funny books that can be boiled down to a single panel. Here's some from Devil's Reign: X-Men #3.     I suppose that would fit in the badass thread too. I love Phil Noto's faces. And here's a bonus single image from Avengers Forever #4.

The Question IRL posted:Honestly I don't live in the Marvel Universe, but I wouldn't be surprised if implanting a psi dampening device into your skull didn't actually give your some sort of tumour. Yeah I get that they're kind of going for an anti-vax joke but putting a psi-dampener in/around my head might be a hard sell. Especially given that if you live in the Marvel Universe, you've probably seen just as many super-science devices/experiments backfire horribly as you have be successful. ... then again, given that mistakes with super-science in Marvel often seem to lead to superpowers, I might be jumping at the opportunity. Hell maybe I'd take whatever device they have for psi-dampening and go gently caress with it in my garage until something something reverse the polarity something something now I'm psychic.

Let's be honest, knowing what we know, we'd all be jumping in Gamma bomb explosions, eating buckets of radioactive ooze, and getting bitten by every spider we come across. Chances are at least 50/50 that we'd come out with superpowers.

Hey, a thirteen year career quietly supering offscreen is nothing to scoff at. Besides, nobody stays dead forever in Marvel unless your name is Benjamin.

I remember an old 90’s cartoon where some villains had this as their origin story, they walk into a nuclear reactor intending to get super powers. I think one of them became a mudman and the other just turned into like a fish or something.

I always found it amusing how in the Mask cartoon, Peggy was his buddy (possibly love interest, I didn't see that many episodes), when in the movie, she sells him out to a gangster and almost gets him killed.
