25 Thoughts About 25 Comics – Captain America To Justice League To Fight Club 2…

It's a brand new Wednesday with some brand new comics. Each created with masters of the form. I mean look at this colouring technique…revival

The moment when, reading Revival, that you're reading Avengers Standoff is the moment you have to step off…IMG_2132

 

"That's right, I got a job in the world's leading espionage agency and they make me look after children. Children that aren't even real, just imaginary family members to keep the supervillains happy. This is my life. At least I keep massive guns in the classroom for when I… imagine they get out of line.."RICKMORTY-#12-MARKETING-14 (1)

Rick And Morty #12 with new writer Tom Fowler. And pretty much the same old messed up mental issues. They are talking about Superman here, aren't they?

JLA-8-2-3-56f3053229f606-90475585-fa688

In space, no one can hear you hit someone really, really hard. Bryan Hitch brings an element of realism to a hand-to-hand space battle between superbeings, in Justice League Of America. And (spoilers) Rick And Morty may have read the finale…

X-THOUGHTS_FAITH_003Faith #3 has a reputation to live up – and down – to. And her involvement in mass media in her world does a need job mirroring the media obsession with her in our world too.

Street Fighter x G.I. Joe #2

And she doesn't even have frilly shoulder pads like some female fighters we know… in
Street Fighter x G.I. Joe #2.

xthoughts_postal11
Other soldiers find different ways to fight. Postal #11 delivers a keen message down the line. But seriously, who could believe such a thing, take it seriously, then pump it into the minds of millions?

Tyler Durden in Fight Club 2, naturally. Or is that Donald Trump? There are plenty of ways to win the presidency…

ANXMEN2015007-int2-3-acb12At some point they will tell us exactly what Cyclops did that was so wrong, in All-New X-Men. Probably during Apocalypse Wars. But right now it's like one half of a couple asking what they did that was so wrong while the other says "if you have to ask, I'm not telling you."

past

Pastaways resorts to the exact same stereotype. Basically, right now, everyone is writing the Civil War II script…

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur (2015-) 005-007

While Moon Girl has her own protective measures as the Terrigen Mist comes to New York…
Ragnarök #8
Apparently prayer is one. Just don't ask how mouths can speak without lower jaws. Or tongues Or lips. I am suddenly reminded of this sketch, by Ragnarok #8.

Judge Dredd #4

Gaze Into The Fist Of… FLUMFFF. This really needed that sound effect in the new Judge Dredd.
Godzilla Oblivion #1You realise you are in a called Godzilla Oblivion #1? No noises like that are going to be down to mechanics. Unless… It's Mecha Godzilla!

It's not Mecha Godzilla.
Jem #13Jem And The Holograms #13 involves a crisis of confidence and faith. They'll still do it, obviously, but it'll feel weird.

black While Black Science sees the best laid plans of mice and transdimensional women collapse in schadenfreude. A very satisfying issue of this parallel plotting perfection.
TMNT Deviations
You dirty rat – it's a bad time to be Splinter in TMNT Deviations. As if humanoid fighting Turtles weren't deviated enough.
Munchkin_015_panel

Spyke may gag in Munchkin #15. But fricasse that in garlic butter with chives and some truffle oil and Gordon Ramsey will charge you $60 for it.

Hexed_HarlotAndThief_v2_TP_panel

And Lucifer took him to a height an said all this can be your if you bow down and not vomit on me…. from Hexed: The Harlot and The Thief Vol. 2. 

Darth Vader (2015-) 018-010The Darth Vader comic may be called Darth Vader. But for me, it might as well be called O-O-O. Because that is who I am reading it for. And this issue sees him even creepier than ever, enterting Victor Frankenstein territory…
DD2015005-int2-4-95e99I'm not sure having ten triggers, even for someone with ten fingers on each hand (nine and a thumb) in Daredevil actually makes the gun any better…
HERC2015005-int2-4-5ca0f Hey, if Hercules self-identifies as a god, who are you to say he's not? It's deity-shaming, that's what it is.DRAX2015005-int2-3-4779f

Am I the only one who heard Fin Fang Foom's voice as an English hooligan in Drax?

The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl 006-016 In the X-Men comics, Grant Morrison established that Weapon X was a roman numeral, that Weapon I was Captain America and that Weapon II was on animals – specifically implying his Vertigo series with Frank Quitely, We3 were part of that program. Well now we meet another of their compatriots in Squirrel Girl…

Some pets don't need augmentation, such as in Wayward. Just a little shape shifting…
