From one of the alternate reality Excalibur specials, I think it's Weird War III which is mostly about Xavier being more evil then Hitler and the Red Skull together.
Nah, just plain old Excalibur #9.

Chocolate Teapot posted:

The difference is that Meredith Gran (and most of the side story artists) knows how to frame a comic book, whilst Ryan North doesn't. Here's an obsessively :goonsay: set of examples from a single issue of the main series:


Over the course of three pages, PB announces that she has a "Time Machine" three times; firstly with a play on words which needs additional dialogue to explain the joke, secondly with a proper magic device but to nobody in particular, and thirdly she shows that to F&J on another page, because she was announcing it to nobody, and now it's using a shitload more words to do the exact same thing. It's redundant as gently caress, and doesn't flow like a comic should.


Meanwhile, in the space of just three panels, Anthony Clark (Nedroid) does the same sort of joke but infinitely better, using comic framing and space, because that's how comic books are supposed to work.
Sorry, I have no idea how those two examples are the "same sort of joke" at all.

God no. I don't even think it's the most homaged panel from that run. (That's either the death of Dark Phoenix or that panel of Wolverine in the sewer below the Hellfire Club)
I can, offhand, think of a lot more parodies of that Jerk panel than the other two. If zoux is referring to just a single interior panel, I agree, it's right up there.

He's kind of wrong. Thorr was a member of the superjerk Avengers from that alternate universe AIM pulled in. Thor did take up Thorr's hammer because he is now Unworthy. I don't think Thor actually changed his name to include the extra R. If he did, I missed it.

Ryan North (thw writer) sometimes feels like he has only one style of humour. If you like it you can read anything he's ever written and enjoy it (Unbeatable SQ, Qwantz.com, To Be or Not To Be) but if you don't you'll tire fast.
His page-by-page breakdown of the BTTF novelization was really fun to read, but it's long, so I recommend not trying to cram it all at once.
