I seem to recall that Cobra had lawyers and diplomats waiting at various embassies to get diplomatic recognition and treaties in place to help prevent the US just steamrolling their new island. I think maybe they even joined the UN but it's been a while.

I liked Circuitbreaker. I liked how Marvel wasn't afraid to explore different ideas in their comics. Real talk: The 'Nam still holds up. The middle or so definitely becomes a bit less focused, but goddamn does that series still hold up. Hama strikes again.

Push El Burrito posted:Looks like Rage and Justice behind them. Almost all the New Warriors showed up and made Darkhawk sit by himself Reminds me of The 'Nam and how Stalker talked in early G.I. Joe. Makes sense, being the same company and all. Also reminds me of watching old prime-time network TV like Quantum Leap or Tour of Duty, where they drop the n-word in historically appropriate ways.

DivineCoffeeBinge posted:I can't speak for anyone else, but I was given that impression from an interview with Garth Ennis. When asked about the difference between writing for British and American comics, he talked about how editors paid more attention to different things, and specifically called out vocabulary; the quote was, if I'm remembering it correctly, "For example, there's the word 'oval office,' which in America is a word of great and terrible power, and in the UK is punctuation."

I think it was Living Hell where the billionaire financier gets himself judged not guilty by reason of insanity, the judge is laughing his rear end off and sends him to Arkham as a “gently caress you, I lost my pension too thanks to you, rear end in a top hat.”

Keeshhound posted:And then Joker locked him in a freezer, he got frostbite, his nose fell off and he filed down his teeth and started calling himself "the great white shark." I believe it was also strongly suggested to him that he find a big bad, and come to an 'arrangement' for his own protection. So he winds up becoming Two-Face's 'Coin boy.' Android Blues posted:It's good stuff. I reread it recently and while it falls apart a little towards the end with the introduction of Etrigan and the literal demons from Hell, the first issue is an especially tight and compelling bit of horror writing in the universe. I thought the story would have been way better if they'd kept it utterly mundane.

I like to think that BatMan is always portrayed as dying of old age as part of his tragedy. He clearly has a deathwish but nobody ever closes the deal for him.

It looks like it should be out of an Airplane! style film, where she's hanging from a rope and shooting, and a guy walks up, snaps a photo with an old-timey giant flashbulb camera, ducks down out of frame, stands back up with that wanted poster, pastes it on the wall, and walks away, all during the roaring gun battle.

Given that his origin story literally consists of him correctly pointing out that the mission should be scrubbed due to being dangerous, but Sue Storm mocking him for being a coward and letting the commies win the space race, until he gives in and goes anyway, I don't think Ben Grimm was ever depicted as being particularly 'smart.'

Ultimate Marvel overall was good, then bad, then good, then ok. The early stuff was excellent, especially Spider-Man and Ultimates. It went off the rails around Ultimates 3, as I recall, when Hawkeye got his death wish.
