That must have only been a partial nelson. A full nelson is unbreakable.

I just looked at Masters' Wikipedia page to see how long that took and wow, over 2 years. And also jesus christ, they gave Chris Masters a World title shot and feuds with Kurt Angle, Cena and Shawn Michaels.

Now that Marvel is Disneyfied and there's a missing license to make more Marvel Vs. Games, someone should get the ball started on WWE VS. STREET FIGHTER.

I didn't know where to start with the multiple pieces of comic book ephemera I am familiar with, until I remembered RaceWarrior: The name "RaceWarrior" might seem ominous, but don't worry: its just about NASCAR racing. Only the NASCAR racing takes place in the year 2020, a grim cyberpunk future (at the time of the comic's publishing, 2000) where mysterious teams of masked racers race in tournaments. Oh, and all of them are themed/branded around a 7-Up beverage of some sort. This is, after all, the 7-Up Comic Book For Racing Fans. So the grim mysterious rival racer is...covered in a SunKist bodysuit. I only read one issue of this. It apparently ran for forty issues.

 I will describe this in spoilers just to let people guess for themselves what this is: This is the fictionalized autobiography of a real woman, who was a nazi who later became a born-again Christian. It is put together by the same team that made the Archie Christian Comics. The production values, story telling and kitsch of the comic are all what you would imagine from the cover.

Why DC hasn't brought back Snowflame back, even for a kitschy joke appearance or something. baffles me. He's a supervillian powered by cocaine, there's so much political satire you could get out of that!

OldMemes posted:Why DC hasn't brought back Snowflame back, even for a kitschy joke appearance or something. baffles me. 1. Cocaine, while still around, is hardly the exciting new drug that the kids might need to get told about. The modern equivalent to Snowflame would be something like Methmouth. 2. Snowflame isn't just pushing Bolivian marching powder, he actively uses it to support and fuel his super-powers. This might come off, hypothetically, as "cocaine gives you superpowers!" and even if this is a small chance, risk aversion, man. 3. DC seems more square than Marvel. If Snowflame was a Marvel property he certainly would have fought Deadpool by now, or possibly crashed on his couch. 4. Contextual reading of New Guardians #2 indicates that they were pretty much openly getting used as an assassination team by the CIA against someone undercutting their coke profits, which would tend to cast Snowflame in a sympathetic light. (See also #2.)

If I was writing for DC (and I should be) Snowflame would be the Reanimated corpse of Ronald Reagan with his AI brain filled with everything 80's. He would still need cocaine to survive.

If you people really want more Snowflame adventures, there's inexplicably a Snowflame fan comic out there. And I know the art makes it look like porn is about to happen at any second, but I don't think it does.

The basic outline could make a great movie if you played it as a really dark comedy. And now that hard R superhero action comedies can get made, Warners need to make this happen.

Everything about the New Guardians is STAH. We already ran down the 3 male members and their non-interest in vaginas despite having a goal of breeding. (Tom "Pieface" Kalmaku was also considered for membership, but he turned down the idiotic plan) The female set consisted of a woman that became a ghost basically, inhabiting the Aboriginal Dreamtime, Harbinger from Crisis on Infinite Earths who had literally no understanding of human interaction, one of the women got AIDS (from an Afrikaner white supremacist AIDS vampire) and promptly sacrificed herself during the INVASION! event to save a tiny Chinese village that had no strategic value (the only other deaths during the event were two members of the crappy 2nd version of Doom Patrol, clearing the way for Grant Morrison to take over writing,) and leaving a single other woman of limited value for the big goal of advancing the human race to the next evolutionary step (She was later killed by Prometheus during One Year Later). :thumbs up: Also, the New Guardians were the end result of the Millennium company wide event wherein the Oans decided to do the nasty with the Zamaroneans. There were supposed to be 10 "chosen ones", but one was Terra who, oops, was dead at the time, and another was senile and not usable. A third turned out to be racist, saw the team included non-whites and got the heck out of Dodge. The heroes of Earth were tasked with finding these people. Also, the Manhunters turned out to still be around and not only that but had infiltrated Earth with tons of agents on the ground, robot and human alike, and wanted to stop the gathering. "Who's secretly a Manhunter??" is really the only worthwhile part of the whole event. Post Crisis 80s DC is a weird time story wise.

You would think that the Guardians of the Universe, if they REALLY needed all these misfits to reproduce, could have easily mingled their gametes in a giant Green Lantern-energy incubator or whatever and then distributed the resulting spawn to relevant foster environments. Even if you want to distribute them on Earth, we're talking about what, fifty babbies tops? Alternately, deliver the child on target to a childless middle-class couple in a remote farming sector of Earth, using fictionalized material from a non-existent planet to conceal your involvement.
