I don't even like Whedon that much and it's pretty incessant. It's almost as bad as "George Lucas ruined my childhood" or TDKR weekly thread.

Yeah, way better at making substandard videos! (Am I doing this right, Messi?)

I always respected the Misfits more. They had to work harder, didn't have the help of a supercomputer hologram projector, and weren't afraid to get dirty to achieve their dream. If that meant some accidents involving volcanoes, so be it.
And yeah you're doing fine. You'll fit in perfectly.
Absolutely. He is clearly bitter he didn't make the Holograms team

Aiming to be an inferior #1 by default rather than a hard earned and superior #2 is a rather unfortunate dream.

In regards to the first part, it's because you should be reading it.
Kipp doesn't buy floppies and he steals trades to kill the industry. All while being a stripper.

Hey now, if he dances on the pole, that don't make him a ho.
I think people get subconsciously offended when something they don't like is popular. It's really, really weird.

Satellite Sam... that turned out almost as I expected, with one exception:
But did
I was thinking Michael was going to buy the farm, but Karnes popped Ginsberg and left it at that. .
Michael burn the kinescopes, or just the pictures? The spread made it seem like just the latter.
Hey I need to ask a stupid question and I didn't think it was worth its own thread so here I go.
Where were the the Avengers and other heroes during the Age of Apocalypse? I am reading it now and it doesn't seem to explain why there are only mutants. I guess timelines for some heroes might have been altered, but shouldn't people like Captain America, Thor, Captain Marvel, and even maybe Iron Man and Hulk still exist?
When they never age anyone in the Marvel universe it's really hard to tell when anything actually happened. Like Spider-Man and Fantastic Four first appeared in the 60s, but who knows when they actually appeared in relation to the timeline change in Age of Apocalypse. It sort of seems like 70's Israel where Professor X gets killed, even though the X-Men comics started in the 60's well after Professor X and Magneto were friends.

Carol was in Wolverine's AoA mini.
As for the rest, a common thread in Marvel realities that go wrong is that there's no Asgardians around. So no Loki, which means nobody brings the Avengers together, so Cap is still floating in an ice block somewhere.
Also, it was the 90s, and nobody gave a shit about the Avengers back then. Weird how that's turned around.

I didn't think that at all. I loved 2 so much more than 1. So fun and awesome. More jokes please! You've got Adam McKay on the payroll now!

This is GAF.
Go make a thread about iOS games and how they're not as bad as people make it out to be.
Like moth to a flame that discussion will be.

Everything should be oversized.
This is why Messi and I exist in a world of short people.
Ooooh. So it was a cartoon long ago. Gotcha.
Thank you for the reference. Haha
Did it just start coming out? Who's the creative team?
Oh you know what. I vaguely remember this being announced now. It's an Image comic, right?
Close enough.
My man.
Sure, PM me it.
No... I already buy to much oversized books

Nocenti robbed me
its not robbery if you give it up freely
like Kipp's girl
ok I'll stop
She preyed on fans love of Selina and wrote her completely out if character. It felt like robbery.

IDW, actually. Story is Kelly Thompson and art is Sophie Campbell.
Remember when you dropped it and then it was announced she was leaving and you bought the rest of the run
It was hours later. I was on my flight to USA to deal with it myself.
It's well established that I can't drop books. I own the trades ffs

That letter was fucking god-tier. The impetus for his outrage is the new designs. But not even that they don't evoke the style of the original (which he admits they do). Or something that would actually impact the aesthetic. He's just offended at their bodies. "Aja is now chunky and Shana has a tremendous booty. NO NO NO. Completely WRONG."
The best part is when he calls the character profiles at the end of the book "fictional..." as if they're meant to be anything else. Or like the original Jem is real in his mind.
Then he rounds it out by saying "EPIC FAIL." in all caps and solidifies his gold medal performance in the douche-bag Olympics. Truly a remarkable specimen of human shit.

Give new meaning to the term bouldering brah.
I bought Rage of Ultron and Bendis Guardians (again) just because it was oversized.

Grayson preview was so good. Tom King is such a good writer.

I totally agree--I don't care how Nux came about, I just needed that piece of his life that they showed in Fury Road.
Dude went out a damn hero.

Yeah, it's still Janin.
I just read the Batman Beyond preview and you know, it was pretty good. I might try this.

It's a novel. They did a Rogue one and a She-Hulk one last year. I don't know if they were good, probably not.
I usually just wait for the GraphicAudio adaptations now. I just finished Avengers: Everybody Wants to Rule the World, it was pretty good. There's an Ant-Man one out soon-ish as well.
