Any drawing of Frank Castle smiling creeps me out

Now I've got this mental image of a Punisher version of the "creepy Batman smile" from JL8.

BRB, scrubbing out brain with wire brush...

I always really liked the Spider-Girl series. I stopped reading around the second or third time it was brought back from cancellation. I'm assuming it was eventually buried for good?

Hmm, I just noticed that she's wearing a buttcape... it's descending from the hips instead of the shoulders, presumably to make sure that sweet backpiece gets exposure.

Good god I'd trying to logic out superhero costuming. :suicide:

I love how in every panel as she realises what joke he's making she covers up with her arms. What's the best stuff Rockslide was in/features prominently in?

The X-Cops story in the To Serve And Protect mini, from 2010.

I love that he wore a mask so he had plausible deniability that it was Onyxx, the other rock kid who shows up in backgrounds and never does anything of note. Though of course he just wore it because it looks cool.

Well, he does give Anole a (fake) copstache to keep his identity safe, too.

Rockslide is also wearing a fake mustache underneath the mask. You only see it in one small panel, but he's definitely wearing it.

X-Dudes is really good is what I'm saying.

"I'm a genius. Like Tony Stark or Reed Richards but if they were awesome."

Bloody hell, I *knew* I saw a mustache on him, but I couldn't find it on a quick search for an earlier forums post.

Looks like I have to reread that story again! :dance:

Unrelated Rockslide awesomeness.



(From the Fear Itself event, when Juggernaut got all hammered-up and was heading to Frisco.)

Rerailing to costumery, has Emma Frost been revealed to be a Skrull or something? If there's one person you'd figure would absolutely *not* recycle someone else's rig...



(EF, post A vs X)



(Regan "Lady Mastermind" Wyngarde, when she joined the X-Men before/during the Children Of The Vault arc.)

Maybe Bachalo just likes sternums? During the big X-Men/Marauders fight on Muir Island at the end of Messiah Complex, X-23 gets her uniform ripped open in the same manner by Lady Deathstrike.

It's not just tits - this is comics, spandex unstable molecules mean it's very apparent that they're mammalian - it's the six-to-eight-inch-wide strip removed from the middle of the front side. It's like Bachalo said "Boob *window*? gently caress no, boob floor-to-ceiling picture window!"

At least that alternate Spider-girl design wore a bra with her Boob Doorway outfit.
I guess unstable molecules are like double-sided sticky-tape?

Maybe it's cloned symbiont tissue? "Lifts, separates and grips!" (Also used for cheeky Ms Marvel and She-Hulk suits.)(Cue Moonstone griping about waxing and riding up in Dark Avengers.)

That second costume isn't any less hysterical now than the day it premiered.

"Cleavage is offensive! Just circle one of her nipples instead!"

How long until they give it to some artist who decides to make absolutely *certain* you know it's a nipple by erecting it? See: Phyla-Vell/Quasar in the GotG/Annihilation event . (I want to say Annihilation: Conquest - Quasar, but I don't have it handy to verify.)

It was a little off-putting, considering I'd not noticed anything similar all through the previous and subsequent books I'd read with Phyla-Vell. Just, "OH HAY NIPPLE HERE!" - also considering he didn't give the same "attention" to Moondragon, as well.

This transformation is the direct result of Pixie having her soul sucked out in Limbo.
I'll take my no-prize now.

She only had 1/5th of her soul removed, which is why she only has reasonable-size boobs a soul dagger.

e: beaten while wiki'ing the correct amount

Look, either:
A) Pixie was corrupted by having part of her soul removed, transforming the naive waif of a girl into a porn star.
-or-
B) Marvel comics keeps as one of their main artists a man who sucks so much at his job that he can't manage to keep a female character on model because she was only 14 years old and there's no porn available to trace of girls that age, forcing Pixie to be aged 5 years overnight with no in-universe explanation.

I find demonic corruption to be the more likely answer.

Greg Land is demonically corrupted?

Sounds good to me.
