This is one of those comics that make sense to people who actually have friends

The idea of a punk settling down into a more normal looking dude is actually a very real thing.

So this is one of the most INFAMOUS costumes of all time, but like many things we make fun of there is a STORY behind it, and today I will tell you that story. Back during the 90's Tom Delfalco and artist Paul Ryan came in on FF, talking to editor Ralph Machio they laid out a long term idea of the FF that the run would try to subvert readers expectations and bunch of it was going to be laid on Sue Storm.

So finished Picard some thoughts.
The good
-solid plot at least, it's very much written as a long star trek movie that happens to be 10 hours instead of 2 but it's paced well
-new characters are good
-It feels like it draws on star trek history -Jack Crusher is honestly a good lead and who ever thought of making him basically Kirk, good job that's a good way to contrast Picard.
-the build up to the reunion is well handled and Data new's life is handled very well, the last scene with lorre 10/10.

I'm not a fan of it but not because of the changed ending overall, it's more the tone of it, to me Watchmen is a story of uncertainty. Your kind of supposed to question who is right and wrong.

Like the ending bit for me is not getting rid of the squid, the BIG is Nite Owl beating up Ozy for leading to Rorshaque's death feel cheap to me to give the audience something because the MOVIE really plays him up as more a pure bad guy.

Sigh, the reason for the prevalence is simply because Superman is the first superhero, he more or less and created the genre as we know today for better or worse, so his image is subverted because for many decades it was the standard Symbol of the whole genre

Like Superman has existed since 1938 and had his ups and downs depending on the year and decade. The truth is and this is a fact he just hasn’t had a big movie that most people like because that seems to be the way success in media is now, you have to have a good movie

Hello I’m exalted_speed and I need to hear your pitch for an Archie movie right now. Whoever has the best one will get green lit and win two Oscar’s. Now give me your Archie pitches! Will you do Betty and Veronica?

Now before I lay it into him, I sold some comics and other shit because of him, so hey good on him exposing these characters on the other hand and this is where I lay into him….

Hid claims on Batman being the shadow ignore swathes of his history and character like Batman being a shadow rip off didn’t make him popular it was adding fucking Robin to his comic. This caused a sidekick boom in comics and Batman at that point was very different

This is not a book you recommend to people even if they like the show. *Why?
the show kind of sells itself a very specific way and this story is ultimately kind of nihilistic in a way that would be very upsetting. But I will give spoilers after this post but man it's a doozy of a dark comic. Almost feels like a deconstruction of the show.

In other news I finally found got a g1 Rodimus He tall

After months of waiting I finally have breakdown and can complete Menasor…..wait….. Well I got one of my white wales of tf. This mold was not initially available in the us for reasons because hasbro couldn’t fit it in a price point? Either way this is an original Takara version and not the re release they did later

The AMAZON, ONE OF THE FIRST FEMALE SUPERHEROES IN COMICS, and DC'S BIGGEST FEMALE SUPERHEROINE for decades, Wonder Woman, but that said does Marvel have one of her and the answer is....oy vey. Look I'm going to be frank and undramatic about this as possible and say this before we begin, if you like any of these characters I'm talking about GREAT, I like most of them too this is just to talk about overall public perception and the issues along the way.

Tom Brevoort is one of the most senior Marvel editors at the moment and while people often focus on Joe Quesada as the Spider-man youth guy Tom doesn't get the same scrutiny and maybe that is by design. Sometimes an editor jobs is to take the blame or be the bad guy in the narrative, for one Jim Shooter took several jobs in Marvel because either NO one wanted them or the egos of his creatives would focus on him rather then each other.

He pretty Open hatch

It’s one of those movies I enjoy more visually then I do story wise it’s kind of impressive how much of the grotesque rogues gallery made it in and played by bugs names even if they were small cameos but even without knowing the Madonna drama I can get laser focus on her

She’s not bad though it’s just how much she overshadows the rest of Tracy world as they try to fit everything around her to get all his greatest hits in

It’s that time of year we all together Remember NLF super pro the greatest Marvel hero of our generation. His 12 issues are about Steroids and how the NFL doesn’t cover players health insurance is comparable to Watchmen That time Captain America called him the true dream he was fighting for was inspiring

Man it's really good we the mainstream Spider-man books are being handled by JM Dematteis and Peter David, I mean it's weird the writers are so old school but if it gives us pages like this then WHO I am to judge. Yup these two are the MAIN SPIDER-MAN writers man imagine if the mainline title was being derailed by a VERY stupidly pushed story line that fans find frustrating and it's causing even youtubers to notice and people also somehow don't care about the Dan Slott book.

I don’t know what to do with this deep lore that Harry and his son were into Gunpla. Does Peter build GUNDAMS? Is that how they found common ground besides Harry’s daddy issues? *Gwen Stacy waiting outside the apartment because Harry broke Peter’s god hand nippers

Eh fuck it hi I just want to tell you your reading of Kevin O’Neil was highly messed up and I understand your not a comic reader but I want you to know that man is the reason UK comics actually credit creators, and a major contributor to 2000ad the UK’s most important anthology

Besides his series Marshal law with Pat Mills is a major influence on Garth Ennis and his series the Boys and while it hadn’t aged the best it paved the way for more stuff like it

So I decided to dig and it’s from a short story collection and from reading it and everything basically Luke is in that zone of people reading too much into a story about two dudes surviving the winter

I read the wookieoedia summary of it and it basically doesn’t mention it and as far as I can tell is fanon

I did TWO threads on the Detroit era of Justice League and think you should read them so links to both will be in the next posts. Part one covering background and Gerry's work on the series.

It was now the post crisis Era, you were once one of the most popular teams of all time, and now you had a revamp that didn't set world on fire at all, so what can you do? This is the end of Justice League Detroit. After Crisis a lot of thought was brought about how to bring back major stables of the company and Justice League was TOO big a name to not have so it decided to revamp it with NO BREAKS between issues unlike say Wonder Woman.
