It's London. The worst thing that would have happened would have been a ticking off.

The one from that Indigo Girls song. It's a niche reference, sure, but that's our Whovian!

I'd guess Bronson, but I haven't seen it, just fairly familiar with the dude it's based on. Seems like something he'd do, if he could get his hands on some oil.

Do you know what I think it is? Because I agree he's definitely a fantastic artist, but his storytelling is pretty flat. He's too good at the faux-realism thing. People have tried to make comics using photos before, and that always looks awful, and while Noto's comics aren't anywhere near as bad, they suffer from the

Plus, for however much we can argue about the value of subtext and metaphor, at the end of the day the X-Men=minorities, kinda. The Inhumans=Royal Family of a society that has lobotomised slaves as the base of their economy.

Yeah, I believe the secret organisation is either the same one as, or an affiliate of, the company that gave Jessica her powers.

While I don't want the show to retread too much ground from the first season, I hope the Killgrave/PTSD influence is still felt. Firstly, because PTSD isn't generally a and-then-she-got-over-it thing (and I'm assuming the show isn't jumping forward three years), but also because every TV show could benefit from a few

"Mother, hello…I'm about to go to a restaurant."

What's worse is that the cruel bastards have joked about ending the show so many times that a solid chunk of the fanbase is never going to believe the show has truly ended.

"What's that film that you love? The one about the fucking hairdresser. The space hairdresser and the cowboy. The guy…he's got a tinfoil pal and a pedal bin. His father's a robot and he's fucking fucked his sister. LEGO! They're all made of fucking lego."

Snort And uh, unless I watched a different space saga forty-seven times, I believe it should be a tiny Han disembowelling the tauntaun.

Now I'm just picturing a dude in a painted sumo suit running up and belly-bashing various Rebel cosplayers across the room. It's a fun image!

'Ello. 'Ello. My name's Arfur and I'm a law abider. There's nothing I like more than getting fired up on beer, and when the weekends here I exercise my right to get paralytic and fight.

It's the same principle as Moe's Tavern having a ladies' room.

I've been off comics for a few months so haven't followed the story too closely, but what part is Sam Wilson playing in all this? Isn't he effectively the real Captain America at this point, given the whole evil-stevil thing.

I feel like solving-problems-through-violence isn't inherently fascistic (or if it is, then that Richard Spencer mess makes even less sense to me than I thought), unless you have a very broad idea of what makes a society or government fascist.

It's also pretty hard to convince anyone to start paying $3-4 a month for 22 pages following one character. Existing fans are already hooked, but it's a tough habit to get others to pick up on. I think the industry is in a tough spot. They won't be able to properly grow their audience without cutting prices, but doing

I'm more of an optimist for this kind of stuff, but my hopes aren't hugely high. I just can't help but feel that an animated series hewing as closely to the North/Henderson run would be the best option, and anything else is going to pale in comparison.

Yeah sorry, I knew Havok died onscreen, I just did a poor job of expressing two points (wasting the characters and killing them off). I still consider Havok to be a wasted character, though at least he got about six lines of dialogue over two films before being unceremoniously dispatched to give a tiny bit of =
