Heh, just looking at Bruce's face you can tell what word he was going to say before Alfred cuts him off.

Well, it's that or "For your information..."

It's unrelated to homages, but my favourite part of that cover is that the beast either paused in it's rampage to tie up Mr Fantastic, or he's tied up in the street for unrelated reasons.

Well, what with tailored search results, it might not be on everyone's front page. One guy might get the comic book page as their top result, another might get dozens of hits for their watersports fetish and an unrelated Reed Richards.

Considering in the Spidey Super Stories universe, if a wall comes to life and walks closer on a baseball field, play continues with a new much closer boundary, it wouldn't surprise me if anyone who gets out of the president's limo is president by default.

I'm starting to think Superman's Secret Identity is actually some kind of Rumplestiltskin situation. Like, it's completely impenetrable until someone says aloud "Clark Kent is Superman" and then it all falls apart.

Shapeshifting when you're not limited by biology is a pretty top-tier superpower.

I guess Plas doesn't have any way of getting out of the sun if Supes throws him into it though. It wouldn't kill him, he'd just be stuck.

Please tell me this is in the middle of an entirely different issue and Sabretooth is nowhere else in the book.

That time it was Crossbones. He ends up dumping him in a hot air balloon in Central Park and cutting it loose. Later issue, Crossbones is still woozy (and still in the hot air balloon) and thinks he's hallucinating as Deadpool zips by riding in Phil Coulson't vintage Corvette air-car.

The best Crossbones-Balloon is the payoff a few issues later

didn't his molecules get spread out into the ocean at one point and he had to reassemble himself or something? he's not immortal like, hard to kill, he straight up plays by Majin Buu rules

I could be remembering, as I've not read the original just heard it mentioned, but I think the justice League were sent back in time, but with the caveat that if any of them died they'd just be sent back to the present.

Plas gets disintegrated, and they just assume he's back in the present. Then when everyone else dies, they wonder where Plas is...

Which is when they realise being disintegrated didn't kill him and he's been dissolved in the ocean for a thousand years or so.

Flintstones is a dark comedy, and in a way part of it's effect is that everyone knows The Flintstones as the cheesy canned-laughter-in-a-cartoon banality.

It's that comment on the pony-holocaust photoshop only not terrible.

Have some more. (Sorry for the hotlink, but imgur doesn;t seem to want them and it's pretty much already on an image hoster)






It's pretty good at background jokes too.

The word 'know' is missing. and possibly 'it'.

The location is left as an exercise for the reader.



Or, to explain completely, the idea is that in the 'Real Ghostbusters' world, the Ghostbusters are out and about doing their thing, and then Bill Murray et. al make a movie about them.
