Wait, so Conan fought Serpentor? I'm so confused.

I hear it differs from person to person.

I can't wait until the US and Japan finally merge their robot technologies and we end up with a gorgeous schizophrenic killer sexbot. Remind me again how this will be different from having a girlfriend...hey-oh!! But seriously ladies, they'll have a rapey stalker-bot all ready for you too.

So how do all these heroes afford these vehicles? OK, I get Batman. Superman can compress coal into diamonds, so I guess he’s got cash. Oliver Queen is a bored dilettante who likes to dabble in superheroery. But Spiderman? Guy’s only legit job is taking pictures for a newspaper. It’s a miracle he can even afford…

I've donated to them off and on over the past 15 years. Guess I should make it an ON time again.

Isn't it a bit early to be remaking SuckerPunch?

@Jo: Holy Crap, is that Elijah Wood?

But does it come with the DHD, how am I supposed to use it otherwise?

Go Fightin' Robo-on-Uni's!

@Sian: I'm getting the same problem.

My biggest issue is how much he looks like a skinny Will Ferrell when you can't see his whole face.

Sounds interesting, but I'm still waiting for decent damn copy of the "War of the Worlds" TV series on DVD. Well, the first season anyway...

@corpore-metal: Rule 34 always wins out in the end. That sounds dirtier than I had intended.

@Mrugby08: 5145 was the year those scenes took place...as in the 52nd Century.

It's simple, some characters are tied to their race by location or story telling or historical reasons and some aren't. There is no reason Peter Parker can't be any race, he's just an average NY kid...that's his character, that's his background, period. Unlike say, Captain America. Everyone who has suggested Will…
