Lets discuss for a moment what a monumentally stupid weapon Wolverine's claws are
Like, tape a dagger to the back of your hand really securely. Is that a good weapon?
No, no it's not. You'd be a thousand times better off with a sword. So would anyone. So would Logan.
Isn't he a trained swordsman? Why doesn't he just carry and use a sword? It would be so much more effective

Arent they made out of a bullshit strong material though? And due to the fact they are going to be crazy hard to disarm, and they can "Easily" cut through other metals, the pros should outweigh the cons.. But hey, that's just my opinion.

Without his claws he would no longer be Snikt-bub, just a normal Bub.
Wolverine's claws are a mutation though. He was just born with them.
You wouldn't complain that concussive blasts from your eyes that you can't turn off aren't as useful as a gun.
>Lame, one dimensional, villains
>Jam packed with lame multiverse characters, most of which I don't care about.
>Too damn long! Even without the tie ins.
>And finally shit tier timing, just six issues after his return and you're giving Spidey a big event now? Really Slott?
Spiderverse is shit.
Tell me something new, OP.

>And finally shit tier timing, just six issues after his return and you're giving Spidey a big event now? Really Slott?
That one's not quite Slott's fault here. He actually wanted to do it during Superior Spider-Man, the logic being that it would be neat to have what is essentially Professor Moriarty leading a bunch of Sherlock Holmes-es. Editorial told him to hold off until Peter came back. This is why Madam Webb woke up from her coma screaming that "All Spiders must die!" about halfway through Otto's tenure instead of when Peter busted Silk out of Ezekiel's apartment-prison.
>Ok what are we gonna do with all these cool spider-men ?
>I know, they will be all meat shields !
>Only the 616 ones are key characters
At least some tie ins were ok i guess.
The more powerful a Superhero is, the less value humans have in his franchise. They die easier, they can accomplish less and usually have to be sheltered and protected to survive.
That being said, why is Superman the hero most concerned with humans? Is there a practical reason or just Jesus "I love everyone" horseshit?
It's because being basically invincible, he feels it's his duty to protect those who aren't. I think.
Because it's the right thing to do.
Superman doesn't even think of himself as a Kryptonian. He was raised by humans, and thought he was one into his teens.
Which one /co/?
none, I don't like witchcraft enablers

Critter Coven. Some comic project from some girl from SCAD. I'll dump what I have.
My asshole auntie got me this for Christmas. She said she thought I would like it.
I wanted to break it with a baseball bat, but this person already did it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21zEHUQVpZg
Anybody know cool ways to destroy it i will record it.
Fry it.
Or wrap it in a towel and then smash it with a hammer until you have only small parts of it. The smallest you can. Paste them in toilet paper and wipe your ass with it. You can paste other toilet paper to cover the DVD parts to protect your ass.
Fire cleanses all anon.

>Morrison creates Marvel Boy, a cool new character specifically made for the 21st century
>sets in in a new non-616 universe, with interesting new villains and concepts
>Sequel hook has him arrested and sent to the Cube, but still set on fixing the world
But then:
>Bendis gets control of character
>rectons the story to take place in 616
>makes him an Avengers
>renames him Protector
>gives him pic-related costume
>generally doesn't do anything interesting with
him
>now Marvel Boy languishes in the Tumblr side of Marvel
Probably Bendis' worst sin desu
Marvel Boy is great in YA.
And if you are a Morrison's MB fan, you are not missing on anything by simply ignoring both Bendis or Gillen.

>gives him pic-related costume
What exactly changed between those two pictures? It's got to be the most subtle edgy redesign in cape comics history!
>>78606898
But in reality:
>Morrison wants to do weird sci-fi concepts like Kree Bible
>Bill Jemas says fuck that and fuck you
>Joe Quesada tries to mediate, is unsuccessful
>Morrison declares Marvel is done at a convention, goes to DC
>Dejected Joe Quesada passes Joss Whedon and offers him X-Men on the spot
Weird how things work. Jemas and Morrison's beef leading to Whedon working with Marvel and eventually directing the Avengers movies.
The flood storyline finally comes to a conclusion. Was it worth all the early dragging of feet?I think so.
I know people have been iffy on the art, but I think it really shines here. The whole comic is in this surreal underworld, so the unique style really helps the atmosphere.
Whoops, meant to make the thread subject Doctor Fate, not my name. Oh well. Hopefully people see it.

Bad bait.
The real name of Dipper Pines is Thomas Desman. He is actually a son of Mabel from the future and he came into 2012 to destroy Bill and save the universe. Desman's body was turned to body of real Mabel's twin who died before trip to Gravity Falls, and his memories were changed too. In 2012, only Bill Cipher and young version of Mabel know about Dipper's real identity and only Mabel can unblock it (that's why she was captured by Bill).
Shut up, queer.
But why Bill didn't killed Mabel, if she is mother of his enemy?

I'm trying to get my 13 year old nephew into comics. So far he's had and enjoyed, Judge Dredd, Dead Boy Detectives, Courtney Crumrin, and Kirby Lee FF.
What titles does co suggest.

>I'm trying to get my 13 year old nephew into comics.
Don't. Comics aren't appropriate for kids anyway. And 99% of them are webcomic tier writing with devianart tier art.
>What titles does co suggest.
The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.

When I used to put in the VHS of this movie for something to listen to when I went to sleep, the fucking credits always woke me up because for some reason the volume of them was louder than literally any other part of the movie. At 5% volume you could hear the music on the other side of the room. At 5% volume any other time it was impossible to hear.
I'm reading up on Deadpool because my job dictates that I understand a bit about the character. Before I've never been a big fan of the character because all I really see posted around is CHIMICHANGAS LOLOL and that's just not really my bag.
Because of his teamup with Spider-Man, I decided to start my study with Deadpool #11, AKA the one where he goes back in time and gets inserted in Amazing Spider-Man 43 (I think that's the number). The issue was... kinda one note. Maybe it would be have been a bit funnier if I had read it back in '97, but these days a lot of people knock the '60s slang you get from reading the Lee stories.
So after that I went back to #1 where he is hired to destroy a scientific work station. Whatever. I didn't really enjoy these two issues. Does it get better? Am I wasting my time? Are there more "landmark" issues that I should check out so I can get a feel for who the character is?
My understanding is that while he may be called the Merc with a Mouth, the not-so-well-kept secret is that he's the Merc with a Heart... sort of. While certainly not a moralistic character, he does have some sort of do-goodery inside of him that stems from an intense self-loathing and a desire to prevent others to endure the things that have caused him long-standing misery. In short, physical pain, death, and suffering don't really register with Deadpool, but long-term psychological anguish/self-loathing and perhaps a few personal tragedies are things he tries to prevent others from experiencing if he can?

Comic reviews. I guess knowing the history of the character isn't paramount, but since it's Kelly and McGuinness on the title, I figured reading up on their previous work with the character might be a good thing so I can catch any call backs/similar devices they use.
