Newspaper Spider-Man always has things turned up to batshit, so one story arc has Peter decide to accompany his wife on holiday to get out of town while Sabretooth is running around after him, and just to make sure nobody figures out that Peter Parker is really Spider-Man, he leaves his costume at home. All well and good. Then he passes a burning building while walking around aimlessly and decides he has to help, so he breaks into a costume store and 'borrows' an angel costume to wear while rescuing all the people. He gets given a reward for his good deed so when he returns the angel costume he uses his reward money to buy a Spider-Man costume.

Gary Numan's album Sacrifice was released in the US as "Dawn", not only with a different piece of Dawn art than appears in the ubiquitous ads, but different art for each song page in the CD booklet and limited edition Chromium cover.

Full disclosure: I have a Gary Numan signed Crypt of Dawn comic.

The Richards are at least straight-forward. Franklin grows up to be a god, Valeria is a Doom, and both Nathaniels are king dicks.

The Summers are convoluted because their family doesn't just consist of future versions of themselves, but multiple alternate timeline future children that haven't been conceived yet complete with clone parents and children and Scott's dad is a space pirate and it includes Adam X the Xtreme and they then contaminate the Richards line.

It's a confused criticism because Superboy is set up as a guy who dislikes the "darkening" of heroes in stuff like Identity Crisis, but he's also really violent and a murderer so he's a hypocrite?

I haven't read a comic in a long time where Ben was actually moaning about being The Thing rather than just spouting cliches and punching poo poo. Like the whole point of his character arc was never to find his way back to being human, but to stop rejecting himself as he was, so it makes sense not to change him back once he's actually done that.

Yeah, the healing factor stops the Adamantium from poisoning him. It's not related to protecting inter-bone transfer because his bones aren't covered in an impermeable layer - that was only an additional question to "how do you 100% coat a bone?"

Speaking of that - I remember a panel of Batman being a badass by telling Martian Manhunter that Superman "took ten thousand dollars worth of meteorite, but for you I just need one match" and it makes me wonder how the hell J'onzz Bon J'ovi survived the Silver Age with the rampant cigarette smoking, especially when posing as a detective.

I grew up mostly reading West Coast Avengers rather than Avengers so my interpretation of the teams is skewed based on that. But an Avengers team always feels a bit empty to me unless it has Hawkeye, Vision, Scarlet Witch, or Wonder Man. I know the last one is an odd choice, he's just a personal favorite though. Yes I'm the one guy that likes Wonder Man.

I was going to reply with a group including Wonder Man. The best version in my mind is pacifist Wonder Man who is an Avenger but just refuses to go out and punch bad guys. I would trade Hawkeye for Black Widow though.

That seems dumb though since it's mostly about distribution channels and ratings boards, divorced from content. It's be like saying the only eras of video games are pre-esrb and post-steam

I agree in principle, but the CCA had significant and wide ranging consequences on the medium that are just incomparable to ESRB, to the degree that I think that it absolutely qualifies as an eon straddling the traditional silver, bronze and modern ages.

Most probably coincidental. Carol Danvers was just a supporting character for the first decade of her existence who shared no other similarities with Supergirl beyond the last name, so if it was an intentional nod it was the kind you get from someone you've never met from across the street.

Die Laughing posted:

Besides Spider-Man and Daredevil, Marvel had some lovely secret identities. Tony Stark was never in the same room as his bodyguard. Steve Rogers had no friends or family, and had the barest of secret identities. Donald Blake was at least a halfway decent secret identity, but you'll want to tear your 60's Journey into Mystery in half after the fifteenth time he thinks to himself "I want to tell Jane Foster how I feel about her, but how could she love a cripple like me!?" Dude has a bum leg, and has to walk with a cane.

Thankfully they recycled that into two seasons of Marvel's Agent Carter.

Did Deadpool grow a whole evil twin from one severed hand? Or was it from a big bag of random Deadparts?

It was the latter - he had a stalker who collected a whole bunch of his cast offs and kept them in her freezer, and when he found out he threw them in a dumpster where they regenned together after thawing.
