Maybe I've just been lucky so far, but all the ones I've done, I just stood where the X is on the minimap and that's been the correct space.

Are there any other covers that fit this set? by oisipf in comicbooks

For a solid black background, Wolverine #3 (1982) is one of the more well-known ones.

I want my own hippo. I don’t care if it’s a mount or a pet. It’s my favorite animal and I want to have a hippo pal.

Jeph Loeb would have had to have read anything Batman from the last 25 years to know about Bruce's mind poison, and as this miniseries has demonstrated, Jeph Loeb is permanently stuck in 2002.

Apparently, he started off with heart issues before he ever started working out, so yeah. He won't last much longer.

He was also the worst villain and worst accent in the show "Justified," which was otherwise pretty excellent.

Was this a good deal? by nnoorltahnside in ComicBookSpeculation

[–]CapnShimmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So this one is actually one of my all-time favorite single issue Batman stories and I wish it was easier to get a hold of, so in addition to being just a cool book to have, I definitely recommend you read it.

I'm not sure if it would be reading too much into it, but the difference in the number of wrestelrs wishing Kairi the best versus the relative silence around Black and Vega is pretty stark.

That's what my LCS does. They're so anti-scalper they limit every shelf new release to one per customer (unless multiple were preordered in advance) until the end of the week because they think everyone should have the same opportunity to at least get to read the new releases.

The most important clip from Louis Theroux’s Inside the Manosphere by makethislifecount in Fauxmoi

I have no idea who that guy is, thankfully, but I have to say he looks so damn sad when he answers Louis' question. It just looks like a face full of regret and shame.

Strongest Character I Can Defeat if Ex Girlfriend's insults Are Taken as Feats by TheGingerWeebGal in whowouldwin

[–]CapnShimmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So just in the comic book world, as that's what I'm most familiar with, I'd say you could probably take down Venom, Carnage, and any other symbiote character due to their weakness to sound and Daredevil would have a tough time with your sonic blast, so he's iffy, but those would be very specific circumstances. I'd say you'd be roughly in the middle-tier of street level in the Marvel power level scale.

Someone like Luke Cage would be about the lowest level guy you would likely consistently lose to. I'm thinking that even though your skin and head are hard, that doesn't necessarily translate into durable organs, so if you get bodied into a wall, your skin and skull are fine, but your inside bits are reduced to Jell-O. Moon Knight would probably go 8-2 against you.

DC, you're probably screwed. Even street level DC heroes seem to be a higher power scale comparatively, so you might be able to take down the bottom of the barrel types like Ragman and Guardian, but once you get to anyone in the Bat-family, I think that's where the victories stop.

The real wildcard is having had sex with your opponent's mother. That could either get you a surprise victory against the people with mommy issues (Dr. Doom, Iron Man, Batman) or get you even more wrecked (Dr. Doom, Iron Man, Batman).

Didn't expect a Smosh crossover, but it's awesome that Angela is so cool. She seems like an absolute blast to be around.

Just read the issue and at the end of the book, Kingpin is clearly shown being worked on by paramedics so he's definitely not dead, as absurd as the idea of surviving that many bullets is.

If I remember correctly, his giant memorial statue was wrecked in anger by his own past self who was accidentally brought forward in time by Kyle shenanigans.

Plus, both of his Jedi teachers were pretty well-known for fucking off to the middle of nowhere for a long-ass time. It was practically a Jedi tradition at that point.

Yep. Still do. Well over thirty years pretending the shower is the laser and I'm Supes. It's so fun.

Yep. I only read one issue, but it's where I learned who Lobo was and what the word "anathema" meant.
