This was just posted in main Marvel thread.Connellingus posted:Today's Captain America reveals that the real endgame behind all of HydraCap's scheming was to give him an opportunity to deliver a sick burn to Sally Floyd that he's been sitting on for a full ten years. Clearly Cap does have a superpower. His mouth doubles as a flamethrower.

"I'm not owned! I'm not owned!" screams Nick Spencer as he sticks his sick strawman burns in a Nazi's mouth.

Yeah, uh, that just looks like the writer who frequently complains about Twitter people being mad at him throwing in a sick burn into his bad comic.

I mean you're free to think that of course, but that's very clearly a nod back to that panel that still shows up everywhere to this day. That's why it's Sally Floyd.

Maybe Spencer just enjoys getting a rise out of people? Any people, for any reason. I suppose it pays the bills, one sly dig at a time.

I mean, this could also just be a reference to the fact that Steve is clearly far beyond what the repercussions to imprisoning a journalist would be. At that point 'Twitter being mad' is both a guarantee and utterly irrelevant to him. Does she really expect that turn to matter at this stage when he's done worse?

So when is it going to turn out that Steve's really pulling a Revolver Ocelot (ideally ending with him fist-fighting a depowered Magneto on top of a destroyed Sentinel)? A year? Two?

Secret Empire #3 For context, Star-Lord and Rocket are meeting with the leaders of the most powerful groups and governments in the galaxy to help take care of the planetary shield and Stevil. Seeing as Earth has pissed off each and every one of them over the years, it does not go well at all.

Pissed them off by beating them when they tried to invade, I'm guessing? That's got to be the case for at least a few.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:that was the nerdiest loving thing i've ever read Yeah, you have to have a lot of tabletop RPG time under your belt before "Knights of the Dinner Table" is even kind of funny, and even then the joke's worn very thin. Still, Stevil as the supreme leader of HYDRA would actually be very much in-character for him, since he's a hate-filled cubicle drone.
