That's actually rather similar to the origin of the Hydra in the original Greek mythology. If I recall, Hephaestus raped Athena, and she wiped his semen off of her with a piece of wool and through it down to Earth. It spawned into the Hydra. I think.
Earth One no? With Hercules
Well now this is uncomfortable
He gets it.
No, he always takes drugs before tweeting something

Is that true? That's odd... I haven't seen it yet, I'm on MU, so we just got Uncanny Inhumans #5 today.
EDIT: Wait, did you see Lockheed and think Lockjaw?
Yeah^^

Dustin Nguyen is gonna draw his next book?
I'm tempted to get the Olly Moss cover.
Started watching Batman vs Superman last night for the first time (Ultimate Edition). Watched the first hour and...nothing is happening. Like, nothing. I was falling asleep and decided to call it a night. I guess I'll finish up the other two hours sometime this week.
that Trevor Von Eeden interview in its entirety is really good btw, Von Eeden would be a fascinating figure even if he was only the first black artist hired by DC Comics, but he was also only like a step away from drawing Batman: Year One (Miller asked him before he asked Mazzucchelli to do it). His relationship with Lynn Varley and Frank Miller is very interesting and kinda weird too (he talks about it nearly every interview of his I've read/heard) and pretty much everything I know about Varley's personal life comes from him I think.
also Thriller is basically incomprehensible but man it looks cool

I've actually never heard of Thriller but I was going to the LCS for back issues today anyway
The Spire is the good stuff, idk about the rest, although a lot of people like Planetary

People read your post and think "it's Slayven's alt account" but then Slayven makes a post at the same time as your and then they think "oh, nevermind".

I haven't finished it but Spire is cool
Everytime I remember that one Interview Alan Moore gave once why superhero movies are shitty and not original I cant wrap my mind around the fact that two of his most well known works are a bunch of world famous, decades and hundreds of year ago created Public Owned character who are doing a Team Up and a bunch of Analogies of Characters of worlds most famouest comicbook superheroes.
Great, what the Superman suit needed. Even less colors.
if it's like here then Thriller is incredibly easy to find in back issue bins, fair warning though: a lot of it doesn't really quite work

Lazarus is absolutely incredible.
Check out Lady Killer by Joelle Jones also.
While I am at it. Check out the beautiful lesbian BDSM romance friendship book Sunstone by Stjepan Sejic (it is amazing and is my fave book, I am not joking around. Most here love it)
Planetary is completely amazing.

I wasn't too into it when I tried the first couple issues, but maybe I'll pick up the hardcover and see if it's better in meaty chunks.
Tim ODY-C is getting a hardcover release
I love that book so much, but is it ever an exercise in frustration. By the time the hardcover comes out, the book will have been running for two years, and the hardcover will collect all twelve released issues. I'm all for creative teams taking their time to tell the story they want to tell, but a book structured like ODY-C is being killed by all the lengthy delays. At this point I may just stop buying the single issues and get the hardcover every two years. It's no wonder Christian Ward took on cover duty for the new Ultimates volume, dude probably needed the regular work.
Somewhat related, I'm disappointed my LCS did not have the ODY-C coloring book. It'd be a blast coloring Ward's trippy art.

I read the first four or five issues of The Spire. It wasn't bad. It was certainly different.
Well it is written by Matt Fraction lol.

Really? No Sex Crims? Or Casanova? I'm pretty sure it's a crime not to like Casanova.
