Super Dan posted:Superman also decided that the general public shouldn't see that he's now a lion, so he travels by burrowing underground. All of this somehow makes me think the real problem is that Clark Kent really despises the Wizard of Oz, and hates looking like the Cowardly Lion reminding him of it. Please tell me this is true.

Superman burrowing just makes me want a comic about the Department of Superhuman Applications. "I mean, yeah, Moleman, you could try to conquer the city and get beaten up again. Ooooooooor... there are 25 cities willing to pay pretty drat high contracting prices for high-speed sewage and subway, and highway tunnel development..." Then they have to deal with all the loving superdivas.

That's almost what Patsy Walker AKA Hellcat was. She starts a temp agency for people with not-too-impressive powers or people with powers who don't want to get into superheroics. The temp agency subplot gets pushed aside though, but she does convince her telekinetic roommate to get a job at a bookstore lifting boxes, get a guy with the power to control bedbugs to be an exterminator, and get a girl with a literal bag of holding with infinite space to get into the moving biz. since I'm talking about it, here's something from Patsy Walker AKA Hellcat #12: Why has nobody ever thought to have Jubilee float around as a cloud with sunglasses until now?

Is Jubilee still a vampire and if so is turning into a cloud one of her vampire powers?

Vampires actually rule, when they're done right. Dracula was a Doom-level threat in the MU before Dr. Strange destroyed him and every other vampire on Earth with the Montesi formula (I have no idea how Dracula et al came back from that).

I want to say it happened when Urthona stole Doc's house and all the magic goodies inside it in a bid to become the new Sorcerer Supreme. In order to beat him, Doc had to destroy all his stuff, which meant a whole bunch of nasty critters were no longer kept out of our world.

Jubilee The Vampire is somehow and completely inexplicably far better than Jubilee The Not Vampire.

DivineCoffeeBinge posted:That Alpha Flight page can never be appreciated enough. One of the very few issues of Alpha Flight I had as a kid had Langkowski being forced to go to divorce court by his soon-to-be ex-wife (whom he was still married to in the page shown above, despite schtupping Aurora). They instead spent several pages explaining that same summary, with redrawn flashback panels. I have to assume they summarized his story many, many times to explain how he was suddenly a chick, and was white in Sass form.

Dareon posted:I don't know, the idea of a vampire making bright flashes of light is sort of weird. She hasn't had her mutant powers since M-Day. Edit: To emphasize. Jubilee was introduced in 1989. She lost her powers in 2006 and has been depowered for over a decade. She has had no powers for almost as long as she has had powers.

Just a reminder that everyone pretty much agreed right away that the Cyborg-Superman thing that showed up like a day after Superman died was probably Superman, and everything is fine. Then when the real Superman came back, everyone said he was a fake.
