In much the same way, Spider-Man still sounds like a weird hybrid of Christopher Barnes and Patrick Chilvers in my head.

While reading The Superior Spider-Man I couldn't not hear Efrem Zimbalist Jr. whenever Superior Spidey spoke and I kept thinking "How does anyone not realize it's Doctor Octopus with that ridiculous German accent?!?"

I watched the X-Men one on Canadian Netflix. Not sure if it's still up there.

Wasn't that just him controlling them with the metal he'd threaded through their bodies (like he might do with Wolverine) instead of actually overriding their programming?

No, because at one point he tells one to "do what you were made for" and it shows its HUD registering Wolverine and them as mutants. He basically reprogrammed them. And invented voice recognition.

Speaking of Crisis on Infinite Gambits, wasn't there some comic revolving around Mr Sinister and his castle/fortress? It's kind of a guided tour, and at some point he has a Remy enclosure where about 100 gambits just keep saying "Mon ami" at each other like some really bizarre zoo?

Sinister's Gambit clones were a recurring enemy in the Deadpool video game. They would run around spouting his catch-phrases, traveled in packs, and exploded whenever they got close enough to you.

That's Javier Pulido. He's got a weird style. I get the feeling he's going for a kind of quirky, eccentric Daniel Clowes/MAD Magazine kind of look. I'm not particularly fond of it, really.

It works in some contexts. The whole "DO NOT WRECK THIS GIGANTIC DOOM" exchange definitely benefited from a more surreal, streamlined look. I can't imagine it being as funny drawn by someone like, say, Stuart Immonen.

I should save those panels as exhibit A for why I loathe most Harley Quinn the same way I loathe most Deadpool.

Like good Deadpool stories, Injustice mixes in some pathos for Harley. It's the best non-cartoon depiction I've seen of her*.

*admittedly, I haven't seen a whole lot of non-cartoon depictions of her, though

Well, the thing about Injustice is that, since Joker's dead, Harley has to kind of find out how to exist independently. The interesting part about it (from what I've read) is that, without Joker's influence, she's turning out to be a not-so-bad person.

I don't know, I think I could get behind a version of Hal Jordan who's a hilariously inept moron with a power ring. And if he overcomes his rampant stupidity and succeeds because his heart's in the right place, then that's heartwarming as well as being funny. It's a human quality! It's the infallible white bread Mary Sue Hal Jordan who sucks.

And Jack Black could play him in the movie!

There's no loving way Scott Lang doesn't know what a Skrull is. They invaded the entire loving planet. I think he might have been dead at the time, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't have heard of it after the fact.

He might know what a skrull is, but how would he know the intergalactic implications of being compared to their hindquarters? Maybe skrulls are renowned for having nice asses.

Batman would be all "I relive the trauma of my parents' death every day" and then would punch you.

No, Batman would punch him first and then, when he's on the ground all, "B-but...how?!? I trapped you inside your most traumatic moment! You should be helpless!" Batman will narrow his eyes and growl, "My most traumatic moment? I never left it."

Not use it, but wield it effectively in combat. Something about how the blade is weightless (or incredibly heavy, depending on your source, because Star Wars). You can't twirl something around like that if there's no weight to add momentum or what have you.
