Leper Residue posted:I kind of felt the same way at first, but then I realized I've talked with customers who don't even know what grunge is. Basically, Yes. Grunge, which as stated earlier, is apparently retro. 80's is now The Oldies. When I heard Under The Bridge on the local classic rock station, I knew it was basically over for our generation.

Infinitum posted:So Grimlock is like.. double retarded now? Well, he was dumb as a post in the 80's Cartoon, but in most comics including IDW he's about as intelligent as you'd expect the leader of a special forces team to be. Here, he was imprisoned on the same horrible planet that Fort Max was. Then he went missing, and the next time anyone saw him was when the Scavengers pulled him out of a weird rear end spaceship full of blood and wood. "Me Grimlock" was about the best he could manage. Something hosed him up bad.

goatface posted:Depends how much of it was a hot war. Sixteen million years of immortal stand-off. There's a fair share of dialogue throughout IDW's books to suggest the 4 million year Cybertronian war was like this. Hundreds of thousands of years without a shot fired, punctuated by horrible massacres that left planets burning. The 16 million years Saoshyant mentioned were between the Ammonites and Terradores, an entirely different set of big transforming robots, who in a few gag panels in one issue, trumped every thing about the Transformers. Whirl, the sociopathic camera-headed blue guy, ended their war off-panel and in seconds when he shot their version of Optimus Prime right in his face. I think that all got posted in the funny panels thread when the issue came out.

muscles like this! posted:Dark Horse is supposed to be putting out a comic version of Gaiman's Norse Mythology book which has those stories in it. The Danish Valhalla comic also gets into those (judging by the wikipedia article about it, since I've never read a one of 'em), as well as Thor and Loki at Utgard-Loki's castle, which is probably my favorite Thor tale I've heard so far. That's the one where giants troll Thor into drinking the sea and lifting Jormungandr, but poo poo their pants when he almost sort of does it Spoilering because while yes it's an ancient myth, but it's fun if you're hearing it for the first time

akulanization posted:they were a society based on the brutal repression of a massive slave underclass. you do not in fact have to hand it to them. Right. I don't wanna get too long-winded, but judging Sparta by the rights and privileges of Spartiate women (which is what that Wikipedia article is talking about) is like judging America by the rights and privileges of its multimillionaires and billionaires. And by "massive slave underclass", something like 85% of the population within Sparta's borders were helots, their slave class. (Compare to about 30% in the American South just before the civil war.) And, the brutal repression included formalized yearly war on the helots as well as terrorization by a secret police.

"I have bestowed the powers of the gods upon a mortal. It is my province to do so." Fe: with the scorn Supes shows for sorcerers here, now I kinda want to see how he'd get on with Conan. (I'm guessing poorly, but you never know.)

I used to follow the Everest threads There's not enough oxygen to keep you alive long term, for sure, but it's not like you're going to flop over dead within the space of minutes. Nor from the cold. Possibly he's also being protected by literal sorcery

Thinking about it, a better reference would have been how long you can usefully perform tasks after suffering a rapid decompression while at altitude (like if the windows fall out of your airplane): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_of_useful_consciousness Everest, at about 29000 feet, would give Billy about a minute before the mental effects of hypoxia took hold. Which is still enough time to have those panels in, but Supes would have likely had to hustle him back down the mountain before he passed out.
