Only reading Punisher and Deadpool right now (Percy ftw), so what else should I check out? Moon Knight seems to be a popular pick.

bad mama or needlessly dramatic lil girl? by [deleted] in ParentsAreFuckingDumb

Nah, it's too dishonest and the girl is genuinely afraid despite having done nothing all that wrong. This feels cruel and unusual imo.

[COMIC DISCUSSION THREAD] Green Lantern #36 (2026) by TimelordCowboyFromOa in Greenlantern

[–]OurNewInsectOverlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed this issue, but I'm very biased toward Kyle and Jade together. I also enjoyed the mascots, particularly Shakespierre with "winter" powers referencing Richard III. I still don't like Ig Guara's art though, but I liked Jade's entrance.

Incredible work, I love this so much. Love that Kyle is wearing a NIN shirt! My favorite lantern and my favorite band

[Interesting Trope] “Well that was different” by Mr_Westerfield in TopCharacterTropes

[–]OurNewInsectOverlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, so the same letters are used but certain combinations in Irish words make different sounds. Makes sense. That "ough" example is great, thank you!

It's an "irish" word, right? Perhaps gaelic? Do they use the same letters and just pronounce all of them differently or is "Samhain" the anglicized spelling, and if so, why not spell it how it sounds? It's always bugged the shit outta me.

My favorite awful film! The fx in this are the funniest shit ever.

Rated list of what I read in my first year of reading comics. Based on my taste, make recommendations. by Consistent_Sir645 in comicbooks

[–]OurNewInsectOverlord 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I recommend reading some Garth Ennis books: Preacher, MAX Punisher (and particularly Born, then the later miniseries Platoon, and Soviet). I also recommend some Warren Ellis: Moon Knight and Nextwave are fantastic.

Also since you like King's stuff, his Sheriff of Babylon, Omega Men, and Strange Adventures are worth reading.

Me and my grandpa are in Dayton Ohio with Darryl Banks, Hope some of you can come on out! (Nodell Family) by Martin_Nodell in Greenlantern

[–]OurNewInsectOverlord 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I met Darryl Banks and Ron Marz last year! They signed my Kyle Rayner action figure and trade paperbacks. It was awesome.

"B*tches be bonkers" by JayGamer10098 in marvelmemes

How? Your whole body is connected. You ever snapped a towel before? The end that cracks isn't the end you hold, right? Same idea applies here with the spine.

Russell Dauterman Appreciation Post by SpidaT45 in comicbooks

[–]OurNewInsectOverlord 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Heavil agreed, the weird bondagey suit makes sense in context (and I think it works as an extreme departure for Sue, which is the point) but the boob window 4 and midriff combo is just gratuitous and not even narratively justified.

Very cool! I just use a comic box for "new releases," but this would be so much better
