This is by Gurihiru and I frigging love it. It's AvX but I got it off Comic Art Community's site. Not sure where it's from.

EDIT: Okay I clearly have missed a train hitting my head here.

It's got Jamie Madrox and Multiple Man right beside each other. I hope that's on purpose but it's probably just an error. Unless there's another Multiple Man I'm unaware of.

I think there was a storyline in X-Factor where one of Jamie's dupes managed to start his own life and I don't remember the conclusion but I think it was to let him live it and not reabsorb him.

I've not been following but if it means growth for his character and continued substance, I'm all for Logan as headmaster. Perhaps he's at a point in life where he wants to do something bigger than "Bub, gunna gut'cha, gunna slice n' dice, best at what I do. Gunna make the hardcore decisions."

Fourteen years? I heard medical school is long but that seems ridiculous.

Welp, let's take it this way (discounting he specifically said Med School). A bachelor's runs 4 years for the undergrad. Then Med School itself is, like, another 4 some years of education and exam passing to graduation. That's about 8 years. Residency can be longer depending on the speciality. Psychiatry I think was 3 years but surgical ones can run 6+ depending on what it is. The Doctor was a surgeon at one point. That's 14 years right there.

Considering the low number of spots for surgical matters, you really have to kick rear end. Your exam results tend to dictate what you can be limited to in terms of practice.

I prefer Dr. Nemesis in a hat, white suit, dashing hair, and hygiene mask over this mecha mask, red goggles and white scraggly hair.

Although I suppose it'd be similar to Fantomex.

My favorite touch in the whole thing. Superman "dies" so everyone does the stupidest thing possible and locks him in an underground tomb, away from the sun. And then naturally when Superboy dies, they do it again.

Indeed. If Superman "dies," the answer is shoot him into orbit around the sun. He'll get better.

My morning soaps involve me dropping it in the shower and then slowly balancing myself to lean down and pick it up while half asleep while my knees creek and groan in agony.

Mister Roboto posted:

Well, you're in good company. Superman, Batman and Wonder Women are generally written and drawn to be about 30 (albeit in 100% peak physical condition). Power Girl is about the same age, maybe a tiny bit younger, but otherwise they're all grown adults.

Just like you!

I'm going to double-down on pedantry and mention that it doesn't matter which way it's facing because it's a bi-directional symbol.

Also, norse gods throw loving hammers in their glass houses - hammers with engraved swastikas on them - so it's no wonder they'd hate nazis for co-opting their symbol.

That and the swastika I believe has origins in Hindu and other Asian culture as well.

The Nazi's pretty much killed it.

The swastika literally means "to be good"

At that point they should just have him go liquid metal like the T-1000 where his body just finds itself and merges together. I think when Ultimate Hulk tore Wolverine apart he dragged himself to his lower half to heal. Comedy option is progressively tinier Wolverines like Ash and something out of Army of Darkness.

I remember Deadpool or Hulk or someone having to set their bones before they heal otherwise it would just come out bad.

Not just that but apparently Cap decided to get to the roof of the building and climb down to the tiny window ledge instead of, apparently, going up the stairs and knocking on Falcon's door like a normal human being. Like, there doesn't even seem to be a fire escape staircase there. Maybe Thor put him there?

You have to admit, simply waiting in a guy's living room till he come home and then giving him a video of his wife starring in a porno while under mind-control is the kind of thing you'd expect a God of Evil to do. Just to be a dick.

The rest of the story is loving terrible, though.

I love Thanos but...that's just style right there. The dude made himself at home in someone else's house, casually sat on a couch, and gave one of his enemies a video of his wife banging Superman, and checked out. loving Superman. I bet he also drank Mr. Miracle's milk out of the jug and left a hella foul smelling deuce in his restroom without flushing.

There should be a series of Darksied just being a dick.

Please tell me someone asks "So...who are you?" and he says "THE BAT-MAN!" and then runs backwards, crashing through the window, flying/gliding out in the night or day or whatever, and everyone just sort of stands there awkwardly looking at each other.

It's not like hating monarchy and democracy equally is terribly novel in political thought, I guess?

Clearly it implies the King is elected. It's like people electing a Dictator. I bet Dr. Doom has polls open and everyone votes for him to retain office with 110% reporting and they just leave him to decide everything for the country.
