Just posting to remind you people that Groot is the best book Marvel is putting out at the moment and you are all terrible for not reading it.

I love that the meaningless stats they have don't line up at all, making them even more useless. I would love to see some grade school arguments over that. "Thanos may have a speed of 6 and an energy projection of 7, but Drax has a stamina of 7!"

The talk of Punisher 2099 in the Badass thread reminded me of this thing, which is not badass. Dig that crazy cyberlingo!



Ghost Rider 2099, don't know which issue. One of the first three, according to the site I found the scan at.

Gotta love the random use of words like "mycotoxin" that the guy ripped off from neuromancer in order to use them without proper context.

It wasn't amazing but it was pretty much the last gasp of He-Man as it was so I gobbled it up. Took forever to find the follow up (and final) issue.

Whoah, that's right up there with "The Transformers...are all dead."

My favorite is when Batman and Robin get super strength because they are in a low gravity "gravity well" caused by the surface of the Earth pulling them back up from the core. Also for some reason only they get superpowers and not everyone else.

Every minute of it is fantastic. The story just constantly introduces nonsensical characters and laughs in the face of science. It's complete madness.

50% of the story is Adams trying to explain how the earth is hollow and expanding (because he actually believes it).

Why is every panel 'CLOSE-UP SHOT / next shot'? People keep recommending this comic but every panel they post drives me crazy with GIANT CLOSE UP every single time.

It's a comic you read BECAUSE of the things that drive you crazy. Everything about it is pretty terrible.

There are like 5 issues devoted to Talia very obviously hinting something big to Batman to the point that a child could get it and him not getting it. And Boston Brand EXPLAINING THIS in the background.

And it opens with a story within a story that has nothing to do with anything else in the book, and kind of hashes it between another story within a story in such a way that it's hard to tell which is which.

Same.

That explains Wolverine's weirdly action-figurish pose inside the "Turbo Cycle". And the fact that there's a Turbo Cycle. And the time machine wheel thing that looks like it would be motorized and really roll. Everything just looked sort of 80's-playsets-and-toys, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of those pages were traced straight from the packaging.

Pretty much. I remember those action figures with their lenticular shields.

that is... real commitment to a joke, someone sat down and thought about it, and then they designed it. they probably had multiple drafts. Men and women stood together looking at the design for the machine that Benjamin Grimm can comfortably sit down on while making GBS threads which then grinds his rocky shits to conveniently disposable powder. They offered commentary, they came to a consensus, and then a man was paid to paint that in to the background of the scene. i love this world

That's the most effort anyone put into anything about that cartoon.
