I didn't think Galactus was dead though. Just had the poo poo kicked out of him. Franklin made a whole universe to feed him in preparation for this.

The Question IRL posted:There are. Fraction had a Tenth World which were a bunch of blue guys who killed other worlds. Balder banished them to limbo and spends all his time hunting them down. I didn't think they were a 'realm' the way Asgard and the various helms were. I thought they were from somewhere outside and got in through the void where Asgard (realm) had been.

ruddiger posted:I love that Peter David wrote that basically as a big baby gently caress you to Erik Larsen. Completely jobs the gently caress out of Doc Ock, reverts him from the three piece suit/lab coat Larsen put him in back into the fat guy green suit, then to top it off, straight up steals "the finger" joke from Larsen's spidey issue. The finger that killed Doc Ock.

Zamboni Apocalypse posted:She's just asking the wrong doctor. Whoever had the idea to make Warren Ellis into a character should get some kind of award. The Question IRL posted:Reed Richards once admitted that Hank is indeed a master of many fields of science. So much so that it would take Reed a solid two weeks to become as good as Hank in his various disciplines. I think it was just Pym particles. Poor Pym. Did they ever officially declare that his becoming "Scientist Supreme" in Avengers Academy was a hallucination or it just being regular ignored?

I thought something implied that some of them weren't actually from Earth 2 2. I only read like the first 8 or so E-2 books though then started picking up this new numbered series.

Heresiarch posted:Oh, so the regular Marvel universe got its own White Event and generated its own set of archetypes, I see. It is so far just a Nightmask and a Starbrand. But the machine is currently broken because of other things happening in Hickman's run so this White Event happened/is happening wrong. The Nightmask is a perfect human created by an alien gardener on Mars just because that's the kind of thing he does.

Something to do with deep ocean pressure blah blah. The upshot is he planned the gently caress out of this. Has Final Crisis happened in new 52? Because this is a pretty creative use of the death that is life but I'm not sure if Batman is supposed to know how it works.

The dead man got caught halfway in a localized dimension shift where in one dimension he was already dead. The guy doing it can't control it so throughout the issue we see different incarnations of Batman including DKR Batman, whatever that first one is supposed to be, and this:

AnonSpore posted:I saw the lightning in her mouth and that got me wondering (though it's probably been answered a million times), is Storm flat out immune to stuff like electricity and temperature changes as a side effect of her mutation? If so, does that apply to other mutants as well or is it a case-by-case sort of thing? Her control allows to her to redirect lightning around herself to a limited extent and shape the weather most immediate to her skin, but another person with control powers can then direct effects at her that she can't necessarily stop. I'm pretty sure Iceman can freeze her directly before she can make it super hot out.

Grendels Dad posted:This always makes me laugh. Why would the Thing, or anybody really, care if the Thing's face got slashed up? He's already supposed to be an ugly inhuman monster. It's similar to the Abomination, who at one time got dumped into toxic waste and who should have called himself Abominationer afterwards. It probably left him physically more vulnerable there.

Man, I loved the whole thing. It's an absolutely trite and way too on the nose analogy for a modern issue slapped with a sci-fi veneer of giant mechs and guerilla arctic wilderness combat. It's the perfect Miller style movie bait scifi story. I just grab a bowl of popcorn and watch.

Toshimo posted:Pls post the Thing thing because I have no idea what the gently caress you guys are on about and it sounds like a badass panel and oops look what thread we are in. Quick backstory When 616 was destroyed some people got on a life raft. Sue, Ben, and Johnny, and the kids fell off the raft into oblivion but Doom saved them. He pulled some memory rewrites and now Sue is his wife, Johnny is Battleworld's sun, and Ben is the Shield, a giant wall sectioning the southern 1/3rd or so of battleworld off from the rest, where the annihilation wave, ultrons, and zombies all fight to overrun the shield and the world. Thanos comes to town and reveals some of this to Ben Grimm....

Horrible Taste posted:That was only in the 70's and it was Sif merging with Jane to save Jane's life, Jane later transforming into Sif (like Blake turned into Thor) and the writer forgetting to have her transform back for months. Then they retconned it so they never actually merged and Jane was just sent to another dimension because of the staff they used. Was she sent to the microverse like Janet Pym?
