Ensign_Ricky posted:There needs to be more Deadpool singing Queen. Just because. During the Secret Invasion arc from Way's run (you know, before it flew off the rails), Nick Fury told Deadpool about how he was getting intel from the Skrulls on how to "kill a queen." Deadpool started singing Queen lyrics about dynamite and a laser beam and Fury had no idea what he was talking about because Fury is a loving square.

Going back a few pages for Chamber talk.KittenofDoom posted:I'm not up-to-date on the X-Men. Who is lava-barfy dude and how does he speak? 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.

Lurdiak posted:People who are into anime keep assuring me power limiters are a very cool concept, but I've yet to be convinced they're not really dumb. The best version of it was Cable in Cable/Deadpool. Cable's tech virus arm thing holds back his psychic powers. By removing the virus, Cable becomes godly powerful, though he knows it'll eventually kill him, so he becomes a benevolent dictator of the world in hopes that he'll be put down and seen as a martyr. That was cool.

cisneros posted:The best thing was that they called the Silver Surfer in to stop him and he wrecked him instead of jobbing it like usual. The best thing was that it was arguably the exact moment when Cable and Deadpool stopped being hated enemies. Cable's plan was to be taken out by the X-Men and Deadpool. Instead, Deadpool turned on the X-Men. Cable hadn't foreseen that and then it dawned on him that despite everything, Deadpool actually believed in him.

I don't have the pages on me, but there's a story in the early 90's about how there can only be one Earth Lantern and rather than destroy a city with their rings, Guy and Hal agree to fight it out powerless. Hal suckerpunches Guy down and Blue Beetle's in the background, laughing his rear end off. Guy springs back up, going, "No one punch... NO ONE PUNCH!" and the fight goes on. The funniest One Punch moment is still when Hal punched down Batman during Rebirth. Not because Guy was given the Blue Beetle role, but because of the legion of angry Batfans who couldn't accept Batman being punched ever.

I'm in the middle of reading every Nightmare on Elm Street comic. This is from the first issue of the Innovation run. Now, being that it's a Freddy story, certain characters need to go to sleep to move the plot forward. There are different ways to go about it. They could go to sleep regularly. They could doze off while doing something mundane or while reading. They can be medically put under. Hell, a lot of the time, they're already asleep by the time the scene begins and we don't realize they're dreaming for a few moments. Then... there's this.

Lurdiak posted:I enjoyed Freddy using a hemophiliac daydreaming kid at a baseball game to announce his return in Freddy vs Jason vs Ash. That was actually from the Avatar miniseries Nightmare on Elm Street: Paranoid. It's a story that doesn't exactly make much sense (but then again, little of the franchise does). The Avatar books play up the status quo from Freddy vs. Jason. Everything with Freddy is under wraps and anyone who talks about him is taken away. In the movie, it worked because Freddy couldn't do anything if nobody knew or feared him, so he had to trick Jason into causing some terror. Freddy actually had stakes for once. In the comic, he's more than capable of killing kids in their sleep. So what's the point? Anyway, to get back on topic, the art in the book is kind of hilarious. It's Avatar, so it means blood all over the place and ugly drawings that are supposed to be super sexy. But what I love is that the artist apparently decided to not really read the script. No. No, she really doesn't. That's a nice shotgun you have there.

Seldom Posts posted:Is that Ryp? I really liked his art in other runs. Yep. Lurdiak posted:Oh yeah, I read those back to back, so it's all a blur. I had a phase where I bought a bunch of comics based on horror franchises after enjoying a few issues of Army of Darkness. Oh, definitely. But you'll still find some interesting ideas in them and the occasional gem (like the Jason Aaron Friday the 13th story about Jason watching over and protecting a little boy with the same physical handicap as him). One of the more fun Nightmare books is from a one-shot New Line Cinema's Tales of Horror. It has to do with a copycat killer going around, killing teens while dressed as Freddy. Freddy isn't happy about it and discovers that not only is this guy a gigantic fan of his, but he has an actual fanbase of sociopaths out there. It's great because of the way it takes Freddy out of his comfort zone.

mind the walrus posted:I don't buy Freddy saying that. He's totally the kind-of guy who would love having fans that he could bait into killing in interesting ways, and wouldn't go on about how a world is hosed up or not. He never struck me as someone who cared whether a world was hosed up or not as long as he could get his rocks off. Thing is, he can't get his rocks off. The copycat killer is loving things up for him and long story short, Freddy can't simply kill him and be done with it. So he's genuinely flustered and seeing another fanboy has him rolling his eyes.

Lurdiak posted:Haha. Yeah, it was pretty solid for something that only lasted two issues. It has one aspect of licensed comics that always intrigues me where the comic writer gets to play with the mythos before future installments can define it. Kind of like how Marvel's Star Wars or NOW's Terminator comics are a trip. Freddy's Dead, which finally gave us Freddy's origin, was a few years away, so Gerber wrote his own concept of Freddy's backstory and it worked while keeping the mystique. Plus he had the unexplored idea that there are more freakish dream creatures like Freddy out there, except he's far more proactive in what he does.
