Both the narration and Kirby's art in this page are sublime :allears:

Context: Doctor Doom has kidnapped The Purple Man and created a device to harness his power of suggestion and project it across the entire world in order to make himself ruler of the planet.

Emperor Doom

If you get Kirby: King of Comics it has a bigger version of it. That is just one amazing part of that book.

Grant Morrison mentioned something about this in Supergods, about some people threatening to beat up some minority (Jews?) at the office and it's described as Kirby rolling up his sleeves and saying he'll take care of it. I couldn't find mention of the story anywhere else. I just picture him as Dan Turpin having enough of this poo poo and punching someone while muttering about muckety mucks.

I've loved iron man since I was a kid, but good god was civil war a depressing time to be a fan. Every writer just wanted to poo poo all over him.

#19 is where Land leaves art and the current arc gets going. Although honestly if you can stomach the Land art, I'd really say everything since #6 has been good. (1-5 are a boring as hell and ultimately inconsequential Extremis story)

Pretty much. There's no terrorist or Mandarin, but a bunch of Extremist guys with ill-defined powers, so basically. Kinda like how Thor God of Thunder's had Malekith, but he was in no way like his movie counterpart.

Last week we whooped Magneto's rear end but this week on our post-serious arc vacation we are getting hosed up by some dinosaurs and cavemen.

Panther beat Doom, but to do it he blew up Wakanda's supply of Vibrinium. (I think Hickman then John's retconned this away by saying "they got more.") As a result, all the people of Wakanda turned on Panther and kicked him out of the country and took away his stuff. He was king no more.

It was more that he knew that a country should not have all its eggs in one basket so he invested, and they still had money.

It's ok no one here will judge you. In fact many of them probably know a lot more.

Krona's power levels have always been ill-defined but it's generally accepted that since he hosed with the Big Bang he's powerful as poo poo. He's the one who instigates the entire JLA/Avengers crossover by travelling to the Marvel Universe and striking up a deal with the Gamemaster to get knowledge of the Big Bang if the Avengers defeat the JLA in a race to collect the most magical macguffins from each universe like the Infinity Stones, Kyle Rayner's Power Battery, and so on (Gamemaster sets the rules, and decides they swap "champions" from each other's universes to ensure they don't try and play favorites or use their knowledge of the home team to cheat).

Batman and Captain America (with help from the Atom and the Thing) figure out the game and ensure the JLA win at the last second, but Krona basically mind-rapes the Gamemaster and learns that Galactus is the one in the Marvel U who knows about the Big Bang, then basically chumps Galactus using completely undefined powers when Galactus refuses to give up the goods. He then makes a giant floating fortress outside of Galactus' corpse and tries to force DC and Marvel Earths together, causing the universe to try and kill itself but also creating a timeline where the JLA and Avengers existed side by side and do fun poo poo like hold yearly BBQs and ensure we get a very "classic" lineup of both teams with characters like Hal Jordan for the finale. The JLA/Avengers figure out that they're meant to be two universes, team up, and storm the Galactus corpse wherein Krona basically mind-conscripts every foe both teams have ever had starting with disposable henchmen like the Moloids and Kobra and working up to AMAZO and Sutur and poo poo. The day gets saved, the two universes split, and it remains 100% canon baby.

Seriously people who smack-talk JLA/Avengers really don't know how good they have it. :c00lbert:

I reread Crisis on Infinite earths and he also created the monitor and anti - monitor.

It's worth pointing out that although she's joined Batman's 'Good Guys', and despite all the bonding she's done with his crew, the writers haven't gone all 'she's a good lass after all' with her. Harley is almost certainly the sole reason Flash is gonna jump right off the fence and go all 'gently caress you Bats' and shoot right over to Superhitler the first chance he gets.
