No, now they all have plastic bins and filters that throw a thousand percent more dust in the air while you empty them out and clean them.

Hey now, that spider could be the size of Manhattan and just a long way away. Or smaller and nearby. Or both, depending on how Larry portrays it.

Next strip it will just turn into a submachine gun with no explanation.

Why does this comic's Sunday strips always have such huge gutters?

It had to be reformatted to fit a few possible shapes and sizes based on the specific paper.

Yeah, your bones and skin are pretty strong, but they're not strong enough to handle super muscles, hell, they're barely strong enough to handle your regular muscles. Athletes tear tendons, break bones, and rip skin all the time if they mess up their form or slip and fall at speed. To be super-strong you'd also need super-durability, realistically, or your body would tear itself apart whenever you went all out.

I believe there was a guy in Wild Cards where they expressly handled this issue. He had to drink stuff with exotic heavy metal salts and stuff in it to keep his bones in working order and he weighed a lot more than a normal person of his size.

It's like if Superman got all his powers naturally except for needing a Kryptonian gravity belt to fly.

This only seems weird because you have a specific history of the character you are assuming.

Okay, inside baseball question. I know the panels on the Sunday are small to give newspapers room to arrange and position as they need, but is there a reason for the different-sized cells?

Different newspapers have different space/layout options so the panels can be configured to match the space a few ways. Or to just leave hideous whitespace everywhere.

The Sentry is making the same face that MJ did when Peter told her the eggs were cold :)

I was programmed to cook the eggs at 6:00 and that is when I cooked the eggs. My programming does not account for tardiness.

Panel 1 MJ is supposed to be climbing the side of that crater... but I can't not see her as doing some kind of jig.

It really looks like she's waving her hands in the air like she just don't care while there's a mountain off in the background somewhere.

I really hope Rocket just takes 'unconscious' Ronan with him without anyone waking him up, to be able to preserve the idea that Rocket truly is just lying and Ronan is now dead.

"Somehow modded" was quite literally "with a Sharpie"

Well, isn't that why he had it do a trial run on Albuquerque first? Now he knows without the embarrassment of failing in front of the entire galaxy.

What if it turns out the Galaxy is filled with alien species that are actually all incompetent pushovers and they are totally unaware that humans are secretly super badass?

Have they done a Thanos story yet? I can imagine at least one character grabbing a cosmic cube and just chucking it at another character's head.
And this being NSM, this will be the most effective use of it by far.

Spider Super Stories already did it and covered pretty much the same ground.
