These days he focuses his energy on exposing the grand hoax of tectonic theory perpetrated by Big Science.

Holy poo poo, that reads like a Toblerone Triangular post. But where TT was fakeposting it sounds like Adams actually believes in this craziness.

That is the least weirdest thing about Hanks' comics by a pretty wide margin. The things are like nightmarish fever dreams.

I'm not sure why but few things creep me the gently caress out like Fletcher Hanks comics. Something about the way he draws faces and the proportions of his bodies being off in a way that just makes me uneasy. I still read them every time they're posted though.

Oberon was crawling through the Apokolips sewer system (if I recall correctly), and ended up in Darkseid's rec room.

That's actually a better answer than I expected, I just figured the coloring was off or something.

Newspaper Spider-Man: World's Greatest Detective



I don't really keep up with newspaper Spidey (although I probably should), but I like how all it takes is a lovely haircut to identify an Osborne in any given setting.

It gets better -- they've broken into his house, and Black Widow slammed Harry's hand in his night table drawer, simply because the Hobgoblin has showed up again.

That's even better than I could have imagined.

That's gotta be Spidey Super Stories, right?

What? Don't you like Clive Barker's Razorline?



When I was a dumb kid I probably would have thought this was cool as hell, but at this point in my life the only thought I have is "how the gently caress does a guy with giant straight razors for hands wipe his rear end?"


e: I mean, aside from "very carefully". Or "practice, practice, practice!"

I do remember my parents bringing me Jules Feiffer's The Great Comic Book Heroes when I was in the hospital that year and how awesome it was.

Holy poo poo, I completely forgot I had that before I ever read any regular comics. Probably one of the best introductions to comics that a kid could ask for. I still have it somewhere, I gotta go dig it out.

I can't read Dirk Anger's dialogue without hearing Hunter Gathers from The Venture Bros.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsyRcJkt2UU

Same here. And Hunter Gathers' voice is just a slightly exaggerated impression of Hunter S. Thompson, which is completely appropriate seeing as how both Gathers and Dirk Anger are basically just 'Hunter S. Thompson, Agent of SHIELD'. So it totally makes sense for them to have similar voices and expressions.


E: I was trying to get the video link to go right to 2:25, which is the point where HST starts getting lively, but can't quite get it to work.

People are recommending the comic in the same way that I drag a dozen people to see The Room every year.

It definitely provokes the same kind of reaction that watching The Room does in that it's completely terrible, but it's the best kind of terrible where you just have to see what kind of insanity is gonna come next.

I've only seen isolated panels and pages, but ASBAR seems pretty awesomely insane. :shrug:

Batman Odyssey is awesomely insane, ASBAR is just kinda bad with occasional bits of humor like the yellow room bit. Even that gets dumb when Robin nearly kills GL and Bruce has to give him a pen tracheotomy.

I've never read his solo stuff, but when Strange showed up in Howard the Duck I absolutely read his dialogue in Orpheus' voice.

At some point Steven Rattazzi's voice became the full time default in my head for anything I read with Strange and I have yet to find a story where it doesn't work. poo poo, if I was rich I'd just pay whatever it cost to have him dub the whole movie for my own personal enjoyment.
