I like Baby Yoda because it’s the first Star Wars character to skip the intermediary steps and begin life as a Funko Pop.

LOL at the idea that Squirrel Girl started off as a “cute” character and then was drawn “oddly” only later. They know she was created by Ditko, right? Steve Ditko is not exactly the first name that springs to mind when I think about cheesecake art styles.

Monaghan posted:One thing I really liked about the ending was that it showed how (spoilers for a five year old comic I guess ) Was how Jerry's life improved after getting away from the club. He's shown to have a job being a professional magic player, he's had a ton of great experiences and friends because of it. He's even got a girlfriend. It's a nice way of showing how positive fandom can be if you get away from the horrible people in it. When you look at the entire series in retrospect, Lou the comic shop owner really becomes the unspoken villain. As much as the Club despises him, he turns out to be their strongest role model in terms of what "fandom" is - an excuse to be exclusionary and exploitative. Jerry succeeds because he's still following his hobby out of genuine love for it - the others continue to wallow in it to spite someone else or put themselves in a position of superiority. Jerry also has been receiving help with his mental health, so he has a support system the others clearly don't. That little flashback to the first meeting of the Eltingville Club is a heartbreaker because it's at a point where all four of them still have an authentic appreciation for their hobbies/collections and haven't been soured by the toxic elements of it, i.e. the Lous of the world.

Hostile V posted:I think what also helps is that in the aftermath of burning down Lou's shop, Jerry's the only one whose family seems to have a healthy reaction to this and his family in general seems to be the only one who actually pays attention to him and his issues. Pete's dad threatens to break his legs and demands he get a summer job and throw out his collection, Josh's dad guilt trips the gently caress out of him over how his hobby has put stress on his mother, Bill's mom's reaction is "well I guess you hate me and I don't know why but we're going somewhere else until this blows over" and previously tried to hire intervention people to scare him straight and Jerry's mom is like "I'm really disappointed in you and when your dad is home we'll have to talk about it and you're not seeing those guys again". Everyone else blames the hobby and interests and that makes the boys hostile and entrenched but Jerry's folks rightly recognize that the hobby isn't the problem but the fact that he's in a crab bucket. This is a great point. That’s the only appearance Jerry’s mom makes in the entire series, I think. Her reaction definitely implies that he was always better positioned to outgrow the club than the others. Eltingville was very helpful to me as a teen because I definitely did used to get into flame wars on AOL about Kyle Rayner and which Simpsons episodes were the worst.

See, the problem is, if they depict Batman performing oral sex on Catwoman even in a show intended for adults, that information would get out there anyway. People all over the Internet would be talking for days on end about Batman eating out Catwoman. It would be impossible to go online without being made to think about Batman and Catwoman engaging in cunnilingus. It would be all anyone would talk about for quite a while. So instead they nixed it and now no one will know. Mission accomplished.

The thing that gets me about these dudes is that they took a look at the last 40-plus years of the comic book industry and its sales trends and decided the problem was NOT ENOUGH TITS. Like I’m pretty sure the same conditions that led to Captain America selling less than 30,000 copies a month are not going to magically spare Red Rooster. But no, these idiots’ rallying cry is apparently “This industry needs to be MORE INSULAR.”

Really not understanding how saying "thank you" to Jerry Robinson 12 years ago at a con has anything to do with anything, but okay. Big loving deal. E: Also LOL at the idea that DC has "no right" to make any changes to Jon Kent, a character who didn't exist until like six years ago.

It’s also worth noting that Stan’s scripting matched the level of bombast in Kirby’s art, which helped create a total package that was a one-of-a-kind combo.

bobkatt013 posted:Wasn’t that one of the reasons he left the book? I think the final straw was that Lee wanted the Green Goblin’s identity to be an existing character, while Ditko thought he should be “just some guy.” I don’t know if that’s an Objectivist thing or because Ditko didn’t understand melodrama, but whatever the reason Stan turned out to be right.

I check CBR every now and then purely thanks to muscle memory, and it's mind-boggling the type of content you find there now. Why are they giving space to a plain-jane lawyer show on the Oprah Network? Why is it the responsibility of another TV show to "correct the mistakes" of an unrelated movie? I swear I've seen more articles about Chicago Fire on their front page in the past year than anything put out by Image or IDW. It's the SDCC thing in website form, just pretending anything on TV or at the movies is automatically "nerd" material.
