Pym particles shrink Galactus to the size of a normal human. He retains the proportional strength of Galactus. Fight.

This scene always bothered me because the resolution to the God Butcher arc was supposed to be that everyone forgot it.

The problem with the God Butcher being in-continuity is that I then demand to know where they've been hiding :black101: ALL-BLACK THE NECROSWORD :rock: and why it doesn't have its own monthly title.

No, Claremont made it such that there's a right and a wrong choice. It was later decided that those who made the wrong choice get super powers anyway.

Don't forget the part where Lionheart isn't told what the choices represent (by Braddock, of all people, who had the choices clearly laid out to him).

Reminds me of that time they had Black Bolt yell into a power amplifier to shoot Uatu-infused Doom.



Why yes, Reed and Sue are wearing "Power Optimization Vests" replete with pouches in order to power up to fight Cosmic Doom.

YOU WANT SOME GODDAMN PANELS?

Let's start with the holographic cover to that sicknasty issue.



Sue gets tarted up:



Skrulls happen. Reed/Sue start bickering... again...



FF has a run-in with The New FF/Defenders:



They all get yanked up to The Watcher's Citadel in The Blue Area of the Moon:



Again in Pencil:



The big reveal of Ben's face.



Ben gets his mask on.



Check out this sick 2099 reference, bro.



Super-Vests and Super-Guns, care of Reed Richards/



Then, Black Bolt does his thing.

And the next page. (Badass Sound Effects!)




Also, there's some subplot where Franklin Richards is an out-of-control toddler who knocks out his Super-Witch Nanny and his granddad from the future has to come pull him outside the timeline or some ridiculous comic bullshit.




Also, The Milftastic Sue Storm is a reference to her latest Malice resurgence during the Infinity War (Super-Nanny namedrops Malice specifically).

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.

Strange was with the Defenders/New FF in the issue where Wolvie carves up Thing. Consequently, at that point, no, Thing was staying the hell away from him.

How strong are they now, anyway? I remember owning an annual back in the late 80's early 90's where they were compared to the Fantastic Four - As flexable as Reed, disintergrate after a few hours, so untraceable a-la Sue, Torch can't burn them and they're strong enough to contain Thing.

I hated the last one because I liked Thing, and I was getting fed up with my favourite Strong Guy constantly getting one-upped by other Strong Guys, like Thor and Hulk. :(

According to the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, Thing's Power Grid shows a Strength stat of 6 (Superhuman: Able to lift over 75 tons, up to 100 tons.), while Thor and Hulk are bot Strength 7 (7 = Incalculable: Able to lift in excess of 100 tons.).

Maybe you should select a superior Strong Guy (but not Actual Strong Gut, who is off being the Supreme Lord of Hell or some poo poo.).

I had not heard this and also upon reviewing the synopsis of Identity Crisis I conclude there is pretty much nothing in it that is not terrible but I may be mistaken.

Can't find a primary source, but there's a hundred versions of the same story:

quote:

Fan backlash was also helped by former DC assistant editor Valerie D'Orazio coming forward and revealing that the genesis of the entire project came from Editor in Chief Dan Didio pronouncing "We need a rape".

Sadly, I can believe that given how badly every attempt DC makes to be "dark and gritty" or do shades-of-grey morality has been handled.

You mean like when Alan Moore called the DC Editors about maiming Barbara Gordon during The Killing Joke and they told him to "Cripple the bitch!"?
