Cat beast is better, but I'm the weirdo who liked that donkey beast that showed up for two panels in SWORD or something.

I'm not going to call it great art or anything, but aside from Monica Rambeu I thought Land was decent on Mighty Avengers. Especially when the writer was making him draw extra dimensional entities or chicken headed thugs. His Rambeu wasn't even that bad, just obviously a white chick he gave dark skin.

If laser beams and rocket launcher haven't done the trick why does Iceman think that snowballs will - and where the hell is Beast swinging from? I'm pretty sure that one is supposed to be (Amazing Fantasy 15 spoilers) the guy who killed Uncle Ben

Yeah, evil alternate universe Avengers showed up in Hickman's Avengers and Odinson kept Thorr's hammer, which is mostly the same but the inscription reads "If He Be Unworthy..."

I know she's not a well known character outside of comics, and I thought Brian Woods run on Adjectiveless X-Men was kinda boring, but I think Psylocke's new costume in that run is probably my favorite costume redesign in the pat decade (Danver's Captain Marvel suit might beat it)

Does anyone have that lying around? I don't have the panels but that's from Warren Ellis' too brief run on Ultimate Fantastic Four. He wrote #'s 7-18 if that helps.

So in Hickman's Avengers all of the universes are collapsing together and the Illuminati send Hank Pym to find the source of it. None of that's actually important, the most important piece of info from the latest New Avengers is that this universe exists (or at least used to). (New Avengers 30)

Though I've tried American cheese and Chocolate too and those were both loving awful, when I visited America we mostly ate stuff like steak and lobster and other fancy foods, or like Chinese food and such. Where were you in America? West Coast at least has tons of great Indian. And don't call the American fast food that opens in Europe, American food, that'd be like us calling Olive Garden Italian. Also what's a chippy?

Anecdotally there's an inverse relationship between how big my tip is and how long a customer wants their beef cooked. Also, if you think that'sthat's bad, get 3 different people from 3 different states in the same room and ask them the proper way to make chili.

SilverSupernova posted:I think it's more "please don't or else the chat will explode into a 10 page tangent completely unrelated to the panel." No, the sonic thing was definitely because someone was posting way, way too many of them in short bursts. I'm pretty sure most of us can resist the urge to talk about Sonic. I say post the panels as long as it's only a few and they are actually funny.

AnonSpore posted:Wasn't that just him controlling them with the metal he'd threaded through their bodies (like he might do with Wolverine) instead of actually overriding their programming? Nah, the way it appears on screen it looks like he changed their programming, and they continue to follow that programming even when he's distracted or otherwise occupied. I just thought of it as rewiring their circuit boards or something along those lines. It's best to just roll with it, it's not like they explained why Kitty Pryde suddenly had the ability to send people's minds into the past, but if she couldn't there wouldn't be any movie at all.
