I imagine Doom's bedroom operates like Ferris Bueller's with the automated machinery setup but instead of the crude Rube Goldberg style it's all fantastical chrome Kirby Krackle type stuff.

Doom wouldn't snooze, because each moment extra he sleeps is a moment that fool is endangering humanity unchecked by the only person who could stop him. RICHAAARDS!!!!

"Daylight Savings? Doom would never stoop to forcing the noble citizens of Latveria to scrounge and scrimp like starving packrats, nor hoard in storehouses like misers! When Doom obtains the Power Cosmic, he will provide all the light and dark that his people need!"

Doom uses his time platform to travel back before the birth of that infernal RICHARDS so he can sleep in peace. He then returns exactly when he left so he lost no time and can be rested enough to finally defeat that buffoon.

However cynical and deconstructive Watchmen is, you don't write that without having a huge respect for the genre, also his ABC comics stuff and his run on Supreme (which was after DC hosed him over).

Top Ten, which was part of his kinda recent ABC stuff, was about a city full of superheroes. It has the standard Moore problem of a rape storyline in an otherwise fun book, but does a great job of combining the wonder of being a superhero with the regular pains of daily life. It's not a book you'd write if you were a cynic about superheroes.

bunnyofdoom posted:I fee like Ennis just hates superheroes Ennis has said in interviews that he didn't grow up on superheroes; he was big into stuff like Eagle Comics and 2000 AD instead, so by the time he read any superhero comics, he found himself unable to take them seriously. Then he came to America and wrote Preacher, where every time he put something deeply hosed-up into it, Wizard magazine would fall over itself to boost the book a little further. Fast-forward a few years and, much like that conversation Cassidy has with Jesse in Preacher about Brendan Behan, people all over the comics industry were willing to cut Ennis a check just to let him be Ennis for a while. Spider-Man's actually gotten off relatively light by comparison to some other characters, the fight with the Russian notwithstanding. There's a horror arc by Ennis and John McCrea in Tangled Web that ends up as one of the more touching depictions of Peter Parker ever written, although the villain of the piece is truly vile.

That hellcycle was extremely impractical, I mean what kind of fuel did it consume? Also Ghost Rider never needs an excuse to be somewhere, the Spirit of Vengeance draws him to wherever he is needed. So I guess he needed to make a cameo in that Punisher book.

Recent discussion of the Valerian reminded me of how the movie removes the central gag from the story that they are vaguely adapting: The macho space hero is kidnapped at the beginning of the story, leaving the female sidekick to resolve the crisis on her own, while having to deal with hysterical men who crack under pressure:     Valerian and Laureline: Ambassador of the Shadows (1975)

I didn’t bother with the film because I can’t abide Dane Dehane, he unfortunately is cursed with one of the most punchable faces on Earth.
