Ugh, yet another example of Hollywood pushing its unattainable standards and unrealistic ideals on us. We can’t ALL have giant monsters on the other side of the world who copy our every move, okay?! I’m a strong independent alcoholic underachiever, and I DON’T NEED NO KAIJU!

I told Amazon I’d cancel my Prime membership if they didn’t give me more of the Tick. I’m also glad JCVJ was picked up; it wasn’t mind-blowing but has potential to be quite fun. I Love Dick was terrible, though, and should have died a swift fiery death.

Thanks for sharing that link. I like the artist’s style but it seems to work better for some characters (Magneto, Deadpool, and oddly Ruby Rhod) than others (Black Panther, Silver Surfer, and Luther Strode, about whom I know nothing but looks ridiculous and terrible).  Maybe I need to read more of his stuff to…

Churchill would punch Michael Bay in the dick then make a pithy quote and chomp his cigar. Bay would probably love it, though.

 Yeah, I feel like Ronan isn’t in the same league as Red Skull and Ultron. He’d just be spat out by the gem, like “you got beaten by a dance - off. NOT WORTHY. Get out of our eeeevil-dudes-in-gems club”

That’s what happens when you use the non-union Mexican equivalent. (Shit, I’m not in the Simpsons thread anymore, am I?)

 I’m thinking Khan is Ice King and Cotton is Lemongrab, right?

I’m pretty sure Luanne would be Tree Trunks.

I guffawed at her being the “most recognizable” star, because I hadn’t even realized it was her in any of the promo pics until just now.

My theory is he has to be terrible for a while before he redeems himself and becomes hero commish, otherwise there’s no character development. “Full-on alcoholic mercenary with a death wish” would be the logical next step, so fingers crossed we get to see him hit rock bottom because that sounds fantastic.

That was my thought too! he kinda looked more like a dinosaur or frilled lizard but that could just be lazy production standards. You never know with this show.

 Yes and it was glorious. I watched every second of it in a state of constant “LOL GOTHAM WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING”

Pffffft, details don’t matter on Gotham!

Opening scene: Gordon tries to capture a monstrously strong mutant who just robbed a pharmacy. Said monster proceeds to comically bend Gordon’s crowbar in half then fling him around like a ragdoll. Gordon keeps trying to fight, despite the obvious impossibility of success, because He Never Gives Up. It’s pathetic.…

Best season, IMHO. It stripped away the self-seriousness of season 1 and just went balls-to- the-wall batshit. Alcoholic nuns! Nazis! How about some aliens? Why not! A musical number? OF COURSE!

::shrug:: Fair enough. I get what you’re saying and I don’t disagree, I was just pointing out that it wasn’t pulled out of thin air. I don’t have a stake in this; I’m of the opinion that unless a headline is patently false or intentionally misconstrued, the reader takes responsibility for clicking.

‘Terrifying’ is in the article itself, sunshine.

Was this entire post supposed to be satire? Maybe I’m just not getting it, but these comics are awful in pretty much every sense of the word. The movie Falling Down captures a lot of what you’re talking about, and can take some serious soul-searching to even admit you like, but this... it’s just amateurish dreck…
