Well then everyone would know ahead of time that Captain Marvel would win. GEEZ ZOUX

zoux posted:

Well, who won?
Thor. But they prayed together first because neither actually wanted to fight the other.

Thor also had the advantage of dressing as The 90s.

Marvel vs DC also had Aquaman beat Namor by squashing him with a whale.

Storm beating Wonder Woman who had forfeited Mjolnir and the Thor powers she gained for all of 10 seconds.

Oh, and Thanos nearly stroking one out at the end of the world.

Marvel vs DC was a glorious wreck.
But it was super fun, and I am very glad it exists.

If there was ever another round of DC vs Marvel, it's interesting in that the Marvel characters would remember the earlier event, but none of the DCers would, since they're not the "same" characters, post-n52 reboot.

Most of it has been surprisingly excellent but I saw in a scan that they show Doom's face. I really don't care if this is "the end" of the 616 as we've known it and it's time to slaughter sacred cows but that's a cow that's been sacred over twice as long as I've been alive... it's hard not to feel a sense of "who the gently caress do you think you are?"
Wasn't his face shown in Children's Crusade?

Doom's face was literally the plot point used to resolve the conflict in the original Secret Wars, why would you not mention it.

I just look at these superman panels and the movement seems so jerky, like that last panel, the top pane where he's punching Luthor looks like when you have 2 action figures and you're making them punch each-other, rather than something actually choreographed/taking motion into mind.
If you're talking about the panels Two-Pair posted from Action 840, yeah, those aren't too hot. I don't even know who drew that one.

The Quitely stuff from All-Star is top-drawer, though.

Has Strange ever had to bust out emergency surgery tactics on a fallen superhero? He still knows more about internal medicine than most, even if he doesn't practice anymore. Seems as if he'd at least be brought in as a consult, in Things's case.

So being wreathed in plasma has no effect, but getting hit by a baseball bat equals major ouchies.
In the original Punisher 2099 comics, his Power Bat had some kind of variable setting thing where he could instantly change the bat's density, "depending on the level of punishment required".
