"I died before. It was boring, so I stood up" It's such a comic book sentence and I love it.

Soonmot posted:It really is great. Give it a few years, DC will might not be as lovely as it is now and you can read whatever wasn't poo poo in trades. Not buying/consuming poo poo you don't like is a really good tip for general life as well. To the people buying comics that they don't like, can you explain to me why?

I read issue 35 and didn't understand a drat thing, there were a lot of characters that were just there and now barbara has that bullshit cbs procedural eidetic memory thing which looks so dumb. The art was fun and the explanation for the new costume was rad, I'll give it that. I did have a bad day when I read it do maybe its more on me, but it's not as new-reader friendly as some people might say.

I forgot, but did they ever deal with Starbrand accidentally killing an entire town or did Hickman just went "...but then THIS". Because the last time a superhero accidentally destroyed a town, we got a lovely Mark Millar summer event.

Time was relative for him so if he ran 200 miles it would only take a few seconds for the rest of the world but but his body would age the length of time it would take s normal human to run that distance.

These are from Usagi Yojimbo: Senso #5 A bit of context. The world of Usagi Yojimbo, in case you don't know, is set in feudal Japan (not sure what era exactly, but before Meiji I think) and it follows the adventures of the eponymous ronin, Usagi, who defends the weak from evil warlords, bandits, etc. Along the way he meets a big cast of characters, some who make recurring appearances and some who are just in 1 or a few stories. A lot of 'em are based on popular figures of samurai media, like Lone Wolf & Cub, Zatoichi, Toshiro Mifune, etc. Oh, and all the characters are anthropomorphic animals (the good kinds, not furry bait). This is a very, very, condensed view of the series and I think most of the people here on BSS are familiar with it, but just in case. Senso is a bit of a time-skip, I don't remember exactly how much, but I'd say between 5 or so years. It's centered around the supposedly final battle between two warlords (both important characters in the UY world and both character who have appeared/influenced various arcs in the comic) when suddenly a spaceship crashed in the middle of the battle and tripods (directly out of The War of the Worlds) come out and wreck poo poo. Still with me? Good, onto the panels. A group of disenfranchised ninja faces one of these tripods and basically get obliterated. There is no way they could beat it, so what do they do?   In the last page of the issue, which so far has been rather serious, we see the weapon a scientist has prepared to face the invaders:
