Very directly, actually. And just like all shows with giant robots, it was a decision from Hasbro to sell more toys. The Spidey live action show was originally going to be much closer to the source material, but they were like "we need to sell giant robot and monster toys, rewrite this poo poo". Then it was apparently enough of a hit that the sentai series was born.

Yay yay yay, wow!

Going back a few pages for Chamber talk.


He speaks telepathically, which led to a nice issue back in the day when he was at a store, wearing a scarf over his face to cover his mutation, and he asked this young woman a question. Even though he looked normal enough, she panicked and ran out the building, almost getting run over by a car. It turns out she's deaf, so when she heard him "speaking" to her, it caused her to freak the gently caress out. Then they started dating.

Anyway, funny panels. This is from the Badger #65. The Badger is a superhero from the 80's who is kind of like an amalgam of Deadpool and Animal Man, minus the fourth wall part. In this issue, the Badger crosses paths with Elvis, who turns out to be alive after all. Badger becomes his bodyguard as they go after the Colonel (who as it turns out is not Colonel Parker but Colonel Sanders). Then Bruce Lee, also surprisingly alive, joins their party. They go to the Colonel's mansion and are met with his enforcer, Jim Belushi's as Samurai Futaba.







And no, Lanier Lutefisk was never mentioned before this or ever again.

I thought Loki was on the list because he's literally turned himself into a woman on several occasions.

Given his origin story involved spaceflight he's being a bit precious about drinking recycling urine.

At least one of these two teams should include Ash of Evil Dead fame.

The 90s one seems a lot less good than the 80s one. The 80s one is about 2 degrees from believable.

I feel an odd physical attraction to that last panel of Loki, which is disturbing in it's own right.

Deathstroke is not cool, has never been cool, and every time he shows up in something I kinda groan because I know it's going to try to make him look cool.

His appearance in American Alien was a welcome exception to this rule.

e: to be fair, he probably was cool at one point, way back, when he was primarily a villain for the Teen Titans. Since then, though...

Goggles guy on the left is the best for the total shock and awe reaction, like Spiderman's denial of bootyliciousness is as shocking as him pulling out the ultimate nullifier. Everyone else is just "what is this bullshit?"

Convenient sign, really. Has a thousand uses.

"Open"
"Unless you're John Constantine"

"Restroom for customers only"
"Unless you're John Constantine"

"No Smoking"
"Unless you're John Constantine"

"Give me your tired, your poor"
"Unless you're John Constantine"

Plus of course: "Abandon all Hope, ye who enter here"

Yeah, it's pretty much exactly that. Grant almost being too dumb to function is practically a running joke in "The Lazarus Contract."

Slade ends up stealing Kid Flash's powers and going back in time to try and save Grant's life. By the time we as readers catch up to them in the last issue, Slade has had to try to do it three times, because every time he's tried, Grant is too dumb and stubborn to listen to him.
