Yes it's a comic about babies fighting.



It's still brilliant.

Normally I don't like the whole "popular characters but BABIES!" thing, but goddamn if this doesn't look great.

Wow. That's... that's kind of depressing. Being all grim and broody is one thing, but a fart joke? Are they mocking him? Are they even real, or is he having guilt-related hallucinations? :smith:

I took it as a rather poor attempt to cheer him up with some humor, from the context. It didn't work, and was probably in bad taste, but that's family.

Kitty's (That is Kitty, right?) comment about how she'll never get married because no man can compare to Wolverine is pretty weird.

I've seen/heard daughters make that comment about their fathers before, usually when their father is someone they admire and respect immensely.

Why the hell am I not reading Dial H right this second?

Is there anything I need to know before picking it up, good place to start, or can I just buy all of it and die happy?

I recommend starting at the beginning, it seems there's a gameplan in mind which we're currently in the second volume of.

Yeah, specifically, I didn't realize Dial H had just started anew in 2012. Looks like it's only about $25 on Comixology to catch up, too. Guess I know what I'm doing with my paycheck next week.

Man, if they took out Sonic and Megaman and then started working their way through Bubsy and Aero the Acrobat and Chester Cheetah and suchlike, that would be such a fine comic.

I don't even want them to take out Sonic and Megaman. I'm totally cool with them losing to their heroes, together, and just staying bros. Either still working together, or going their own way and just knocking back drinks together in the wake of defeats.

Deadpool #8

Man, Deadpool totally knows. I can't decide if that would be a great way for Ock to get found out or not, having Deadpool use meta-knowledge to just flatly state it. Then again, who would believe him?

He's been teaching AIM and HYDRA goons how to fight for years! Of course, none of those guys are actually any good...

Man, maybe that's Taskmaster's whole racket, selling his training schemes on his reputation while actually having no idea how to impart those skills into others, like some dodgy supervillainous pyramid scheme.

I prefer to imagine just how terrible those goons would be if they didn't get Taskmaster's training.

That face reminds me of... something, I have no idea what precisely. It's certainly not capturing whatever emotion it's meant to be, though.

There's another page that shows him taking that monkey in, apparently, and trying to feed it like a baby while zany poo poo happens around him.

I assume the emotion is supposed to be some sort of profound emotional connection, but it comes across as some kind of insane :catstare:

In the X2: Wolverine's Revenge game, the fight against Juggernaut ends with Colossus showing up for the sake of KO'ing Juggernaut with the Fastball Special.

That's not what I got from his question. What I got was the mental image of Colossus throwing Juggernaut, Fastball Special-style. And I think I'm okay with that.

So since Colossus became Juggernaut, could he throw himself in some sort of quantum Fastball Special?

Yes, but obviously he'd call that the Russian Meteor instead.

I'm more amused by that Wolverine/Sabertooth page because out out context it appears that Sabertooth just decided to gently caress with Logan in the most horrifying way possible, and then jetpack off giggling about it.

I will absolutely never, ever know what's really going on in that page. I'm going to know that these are the entire context around that page, and my life will forever be just that slightly richer for it.

The only problem with Taskmaster learning Japanese from TV is that Chow Yun Fat speaks Cantonese. Not Japanese. They're not even really similar.

I thought he was saying that the move he pulled there was from a Chow Yun Fat movie, and then his ability to speak Japanese was just a side thing. They were unrelated.

Two things:

First, Jonah's expression doesn't change between those panels. This lends support to the "marker on mask" theory, and is beautiful.

Second, those panels are all way better read in J.K. Simmons' voice.

While BATHROOM is a really good sound effect, my top spot goes to the sound of pure distilled laziness.


Fantastic Four #324

I don't know, I think "TARDIS!" is a fantastic sound effect for a time traveler to use. Though I like to think his beam doesn't make a sound that sounds like the word "TARDIS!" but rather makes the TARDIS noise.
