Skwirl posted:Has any modern-ish comics referenced Amazing Spider-Man #12, it's Doc Ock's second appearance and early in the story Spider-Man get's a 24-hour flu and Ock beats him and unmasks him, but the fight was so easy, and Parker was known to be so puny, no one believed he could be Spider-Man J Jonah is there for the unmasking. It feels like to kind of deep cut you could get some leverage out of, "Hey Parker, remember that time you dressed up as Spider-Man, for a genius you did some dumb poo poo as a teenager." The Fox cartoon did that in an episode.

Wheat Loaf posted:My abiding memory of Storm: The Arena even 13-14 or so years later is how it had those mutants who wore gimp suits and had BDSM as their mutant powers: one of them had a whip that caused you to feel pain so intense it looped around and became pleasure, while the other one had claws that caused you to feel pleasure so intense it became painful when she cut you with them (as opposed to "claws that cause pain when she cut you with them", I suppose). "Has a whip" is an interesting biological evolution.

Kang/Nathaniel Richards/Rama Tut/There's-like-13-more-of-these is from the 30th century in an alternate timeline Earth where 616 Reed's dad popped over and ended their centuries of war and became a legendary hero sometime before Kang's birth. Kang may or may not actually be a descendant of his.

All the writing problems were still there in the first season they just got obscured by "That's the thing he can do in the comics!" and Tom Cavanagh being the only good villain the show has ever had.

Carol Danvers was upgraded to Colonel upon retirement. Her rank while active was Major. There's probably some functional difference there when she's working with other current or ex military characters. But as a Major she outranked basically any character who isn't a General or Nick Fury anyway. Aphrodite fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Nov 26, 2018 |

They make frames for comics, even slabbed ones, but since they're made by comic collectors and not people who actually makes frames they're usually pretty ugly. As you can see above.

Which is a cute nod to the West Coast Avengers, but really raises the question of what the gently caress could be so bad on the west coast that they can't head back to NYC to deal with (Spidey PS4 spoilers) multiple terror attacks, including one with a madman unleashing a potential global pandemic This is an established Spider-Man. They know he can handle it.

Selachian posted:This should help you out. Basically, DC's Captain Marvel was created in the 1930s by another company, which was sued out of the comics business over Captain Marvel's similarities to Superman. Marvel's Captain Marvel was created in the 1960s, when the original Captain Marvel had been sitting unused for several years. Then in the 1970s DC decided to buy the rights to the original Captain Marvel, but Marvel had trademarked the name since then. Because of this, DC is still allowed to use the name for the character, but can't use it on the cover or advertising (which is why all Captain Marvel books since then have just used "Shazam!" in their title instead of the character's name). Also they eventually gave up and changed his name to Shazam too.

Random Stranger posted:It's always amusing when someone talks about how original something they encountered in a video game was when it's something the game maker just took from some classic literature or film.

Madkal posted:Isn't almost every single (Rob Liefeld) Image comic from the 90's kind of like this. First one or two issues come out, then nothing for about 8 months, then maybe an issue, then nothing again, then possibly a reboot? Also, wasn't there some weird stuff going on with some Image/some other publisher who I can't be arsed to remember crossover where the issues from the image side were months behind causing a lot of grief for the other publisher who was expecting to rake in the big Image bucks? Yeah, that's Deathmate.

It was Bob Layton and he sat on Liefeld's doorstep until he finished, then inked the art himself.

The Spider-Man suit in a trashcan cover (was that a cover or an interior?) could be really nice with some real distance between Peter and the suit.

Skwirl posted:I didn't follow all of his resurrection bullshit, but I've read almost every issue of every X-Men thing since Hickman got the reins (I didn't read all of Fallen Angels, but I don't think original flavor Wolverine was in that at all) and the Hot Claws have come up literally zero times and I have no idea what new villain you are talking about. There's a psychic Pale Lady in his new solo book that seems like a new villain but maybe it's related? He lost the hot claws before Dawn of X. Edit: And the villain he means is probably Persephone?
