You know, I don't wonder if that first text box is a subtle hint to the artist

"Sometimes he forgets she's just a kid. You know, like the artist has these last few issues. It's a kid - Not a midget. Friendly reminder."

It reminds me of back when Wizard was a thing and they had articles every issue on how to draw comics, and one of the ones I can recall vividly was "Women are NOT men in drag"

Kevin Smith is a fantastic storyteller. In the sense that he is a really good raconteur.
The rise of the Podcast is probably the best format for Kevin Smith. And he was important for being the first big writter to really bridge the gap between comics as the obscure hobby and them as more mainstream pursuit.

I agree with this. Kevin Smith is that friend you have at a party that always has the best stories. It doesn't matter if they are bullshit or not, he's so good at sharing a story in person that you don't care.

Cliff Notes:

That's capital "D" Death, the personification or embodiment of death in the Marvel universe - who just happens to be an attractive woman when not doing the Skeletor look

She and Deadpool met up a little while ago and something about him set her all a flutter

However, her previous suitor is Thanos. You know, the guy who tried to kill everybody to impress her, just so she'd pay attention to him. And it didn't work, she still gave 0 fucks.

Now along comes Deadpool, and suddenly Death is finally interested in someone. And it aint Thanos.

So, through some means or another, (probably an infinity gem) Thanos manages to make it so Deadpool will never die, and thus he will be out of Death's reach forever

Actually, Thanos only killed half of everybody to impress her. :spergin:

(At least, the time I'm thinking of, that's how it went down.)

Right, I thought he was trying for everyone but got stopped half way, but that's not right.

God, he's supposed to be this ultimate killer bad rear end, but he's just the weird, loner with low self esteem, who can't talk to women.

Oh man, she's so cute. I've got to go talk to her. Aw, but I'm an idiot, and she's the personification of death. I can do this. I can do this. Deep breath. Go Time.
"Hey Death, what's up?"
"..."
Oh God. Oh God. She's not saying anything. Oh, and of course Starfox is here. He just saw the whole thing. He never has any trouble with women. I'm so embarrassed. I wish I was dead. No, no, can't think like that... I wish everyone else was dead....Hey, wait a second...

Speaking of Crisis on Infinite Gambits, wasn't there some comic revolving around Mr Sinister and his castle/fortress? It's kind of a guided tour, and at some point he has a Remy enclosure where about 100 gambits just keep saying "Mon ami" at each other like some really bizarre zoo?

HOW DID THIS MAN MAKE A LIVING DRAWING COMICS

HOW

It was the 90's. And this was Youngblood (Or was this WildCATS?), which if I remember my history correctly means Image. And Image didn't answer to any comics authority (but did self regulate), so you had Not-Wolverine there, with the Not-Xmen, except with all the blood, sex, violence and cursing that were not offered by the big 2 at the time. Imagine if an entire publisher was making comics like Punisher: Max, at a time when traditional, classic comic characters were seen as campy, and stupid and lame compared to the XTREME! 90's contemporaries. It was darker, and more 'real' and that fake kind of 'mature'. I didn't matter if most of the art was ugly and anatomically impossible, there was a chance to see someone get beheaded in full color with a collectible foil variant cover. Oh and maybe some titty. And what little 13 year old would pass up the chance to maybe see underboob, sideboob, and their friend violence under the guise of a harmless comic book. I don't know if Image ever outsold any of the regulars, but it did make an impact on the bottom line, and a big enough one for guys like Rob and Todd to make a good living for a while.

In the case of Supreme, at least, one of his stipulations for agreeing to write the character was that he would be allowed to ignore the entire series up to his first issue because he thought it was terrible.

Don't know if he did the same thing with Youngblood or WildC.A.T.S. because I've not read either, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I originally read that as "He could ignore everything up to the first issue" which seemed a little extreme. Like the whole run is poo poo, you'd better just let him start it fresh.

Yes. He got atomized once. Like, literally broken down into individual molecules and scattered throughout the cosmos. One of the Justice League b-team members put him back together, and after that he quit being a super hero for awhile.

It's worth mentioning that during this Batman very seriously said he considered Plastic Man to be one of, if not the, most powerful members of the Justice League because of this. I'll be damned if I remember what the series was, though.

Batman also considered The Ten Eyed man to be his most dangerous/deadly foe, and the dude literally just had an eyeball on each finger. Maybe he's not the best DBZ scouter around.
