Anyway, I'd go for mind control. Best IRL cheat code ever.

Of course you'd instantly go for the rapiest super power.

Maybe ease up on calling the kid a rapist. She might just like to cheat at poker.

I didn't say she was a rapist, just that it's a rapey super power. Unless you're like a hostage negotiator for the cops I'm having a hard time thinking of a moral way to use mind control in every-day life.

It does inherently remove someone's free will, even if you don't literally use it to have sex with someone. I kinda see it being sorta rapey.

Basically this.

It's certainly possible to use invisibility or super strength or teleportation or whatever in creepy ways, but there's lots of ways to use them in non creepy ways, there's not a lot of ways to use mind control and not be creepy.

Bob Kane, regarding the gay subtext in Batman comics and TV

Yeah, there's no gay subtext in Wonder Woman at all, Bob. Go on though, let's see how deep you can dig this hole.

Love how this basically takes the aspect of Stan Lee people can't stand, his love of taking credit for EVERYTHING, and manages to make it more poisonous. What else ya got Bobbo?.....

I hope Streranko really did slap the poo poo out of you. Sincerely.

They were sleeping in the same bedroom of a mansion at first?

Also the bit about Wonder Woman is loving beautiful.

Not as bad, but at my shop we were talking about Suicide Squad, and I mentioned the people running the DC films are idiots. As casual as can be, he goes "There are a lot of idiots out there. There's people who support Hillary Clinton." I told him to shut up with that poo poo, because he says the stupidest poo poo all the time.

Examples: Looking like your typical middle aged nerd, he says the younger generation is a bunch of pussies. That Pok�mon Go players obviously haven't read 1984. Chuck Dixon retweeted his political article, etc;

Is Chuck Dixon a known poo poo head?

A quick question for knowledgeable goons: I just finished reading Two Brothers, which is excellent by the way, and I figured my sister in law who is Brazilian might enjoy it. I want to get her a copy but want to get her one in Portuguese. I figure that there would be a Portuguese edition seeing as it was written by Brazilians about Brazil, but Google turns up nothing, so does anyone know if a Portuguese edition was ever released, and if so, how does one get a copy of it in North America?

The brothers Moon and Ba are relatively active on twitter, you might try and just ask them directly.

Actually Impossible Man probably would win a lot of fights, assuming motivation wasn't a question.

Motivation is the entire point of Impossible Man. In his first appearance the Fantastic Four beat him by convincing New York to ignore him.

I love Iron Fist, but I also have marvel unlimited so I'd pay 5 bucks maybe, if you can get 100 bucks for that, more power to you.

If it wasn't a face, he could draw any loving thing you wanted him to, especially if it it was graphic violence. Even beyond Preacher and Punisher, his work on Hellblazer with Ennis was loving amazing.

At the moment I'm leaning towards Cassidy in profile with a cigarette, but I'm probably going to plow through both Preacher and Hellblazer to see if something else jumps out at me. Also realized I never read the PunisherMAX run written by Jason Aaron so I'll try and get to that, but I'm not putting anything from Punisher on my body.

I'm reasonably sure the Bible does say you can't earn salvation through good deeds, but at the same time, I'm also fairly certain that the couple in the strip were actually identified as being evangelists as well, so they presumably have been teaching people about the Bible, spreading the word and so on, but apparently that wasn't good enough for some reason. Presumably because they weren't using Chick tracts to do it.

Jesus gives exactly 2 explicit instructions for getting to heaven, the first and most important is loving God, the second is loving your neighbors, neither of those involve converting people. Good works doesn't necessarily fall under that, but providing aid to the needy is something that someone who loves everyone would do.

I really think we should head this off right now, Faith vs. Works has been debated for literal millenia and is not going to be settled by an internet comic book forum. Let us all come together in brotherhood on the common ground that Jack Chick had lovely, hateful, and self-contradictory beliefs.

Amen.
