Could somebody post the Captain America pages where a civilian mother takes up the shield to save an unconscious cap from, uh, Crowbar Guy? The Badass Panels Thread needs you.

Wasn't that during the godawful Chuck Austen run? I think I might have it on my 40 years of Avengers DVD...

Are you sure that wasn't from Chuck Austen's godawful run on the Avengers? (Did he ever write Captain America?) The civilian mother got turned into Captain Britain, if I remember correctly.

I haven't the foggiest idea where it's from, I'm afraid - I'm pretty sure I saw it on SA first. I believe she dies heroically, and her kids end up stuck hanging out with Captain America for a while. EDIT: That's the one!

I believe she dies heroically, and her kids end up stuck hanging out with Captain America for a while. One fateful day, her family found themselves on the front line of a battle between the Avengers and the Wrecking Crew. Thunderball rendered Captain America unconscious and Kelsey selflessly put herself between the fallen Captain and the Wasp and their attacker, using the downed hero's shield. While the shield was indestructible, Kelsey wasn't, and the shock from the blows inflicted terrible injuries; she died en route to receiving medical attention. Kelsey awoke to find herself in a ring of standing stones, where she was met by a vision of Brian Braddock (Captain Britain), currently ruling Otherworld, and his wife, the elemental shapeshifter Meggan. To save Britain from the evil Morgan le Fay, he passed the mantle of Captain Britain to Kelsey. Her heroic act of bravery had earned her a second chance to live and to defend her home. As was Braddock before her; Kelsey was given the choice between the Sword of Might and the Amulet of Right. However, unlike when Braddock made that choice, Kelsey was only presented with the choice between sword or amulet, and she was not informed of their symbolic importance. Kelsey, desperate to see her children again, and not seeing how a necklace could defend anything, chose the sword, the path of violence. Instantly, she was transformed into the new Captain Britain, only to discover that her decision meant that if she ever revealed who she was to her children, it would cost their lives. Today I Learned: Captain Britain is an rear end in a top hat.

Though I doubt anyone needed to be taught that. (I think he just wanted to use the old Cap Britain costume with the full mask, and decided it needed a 'reason' to hide her face. Possibly also to show how 'stupid' the sword/amulet choice is, thus missing the whole point.)

I just find it funny that that character will ultimately be remembered as a weird Avenger no one's familiar with that sort of hangs around during Disassembled.

I was reading through Morrison's run on Batman, as well as the requisite wikipedia articles to understand all the references, and I read that Dr. Hurt actually appeared as an unnamed scientist in an old Batman comic from the '50s when Batman went through some kind of experiment. Anyone have a scan of that old page?

Anyone have this page from Silver Surfer 35 collected in the Rebirth of Thanos trade? Its the page where Thanos tells Silver Surfer that half of the population of Salaria is dead and if Surfer goes now, he can save the other half. Then there are a lovely two panels of Surfer being super grumpy and mad and Thanos having the biggest poo poo-eating grin ever.

Could anyone post a two page (i think) spread on spawn. I think it was issue 10. spawn goes to hell and sees all the other comic book hero's who creator had sold them out. There is a part where spawn runs into superman and second page where superman whispers "doomsday".

I remember reading on this forum about a scene from some comic featuring Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, I don't think it was Dini and Timm's Batman Adventures, where Harley basically says she's just been stringing Ivy along for laughs all along and isn't actually into her. Does that sound familiar to anyone?
|
# ? Oct 22, 2014 01:50 |
|
It's from the final arc of Gotham Sirens, the story featured Harley actually being a good (well, skilled) shrink for once and playing on the neuroses of her victims to get close to Joker so she could finally kill him. Ivy tried to stop her, figuring she'd fall back into the old pattern of love/worship once she got to him, so Harley retaliated by well, that.

Anyone have the opening pages from the Too many x men issue (or whatever it was called)? I can't remember if it was right before or after Uncanny 275, but it was right before all the different X-books started. It's a splash page of X factor, X men and New Mutants hanging out in a big room.

Is this what you're talking about? It's just the strip at the top but I looked at a couple issues and this was the closet to what you described. From #273, Too Many Mutants. TIMGed for huge size

I was wondering how many "Professor Xavier is a JERK!" riffs there have been and if anyone has all (or most) of them handy? If you're not familiar I'm talking about all the times this panel's been copied or referenced: Usually it's pretty distinct because they use a weird comic sans style font for it, to get close to the original. Like this: But I know there's been a ton more.

Kinda sad Ultimate Gwen didn't have a big doofy ski jacket on like the original. That's half the charm. Kitty's not trying to be cool, she's MAD AS HELL AND NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE. (Except she totally does, if I remember right. That's her reacting to being put on the New Mutants instead of the main X-Men team, right?)
