Can any of you think of creative uses for “Kintoun/ The Flying Nimbus”?

If you don’t get what the fully ball is, this is referring to “Kintoun” or the “flying nimbus” that “Goku” rides on. It’s given to him by “Master Roshi” and only someone with a “pure heart” can ride on it. At one point in “Dragonball” is gets destroyed and “Goku” picks off a new one from this giant cloud.

nimbus

Later “Goku” learns to fly on his own and “Kintoun/ The Flying Nimbus” only appears when “Goku” is forced by the plot to take a long time while his friends are getting murdered.

Tomorrow this these guys return and this story continues. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Do you think “Martain Manhunter” and or “Green Lantern”should be in the “Justice League” movie. Why or why not?

As implied by this comic to me it isn’t really the “Justice League” without them.

Last week focused on a story about the “Prehistoric Revenge Squad”. This was poking fun at the “Avengers 1,000,000 BC” team that suppose to part of “Marvel Legacy”. “DCComics” had a storyline about a future version of the “Justice League” from the 853rd century called “DC One Million”. This we these comics will be making fun of that along with the usual amount of whacked out distractions you’ve come to expect.

Tomorrow these guys return as this story continues. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Who do you think the team in “Avengers 1,000,000 BC” will be fighting?

I’ve seen some people suggest the “Celestials”. That’s would make sense I guess. That doesn’t change the fact that “Phoenix” and “Odin” should be able to take care of pretty much anything. MAYBE I could see some point in “Agamotto”, “Star Brand”, and “Ghost Rider”, but “Iron Fist” and “Black Panther”?! What are they gonna do? Provide drinks?

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefigher Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday.

Let me know what you think about “Avengers 1,000, 000 BC”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Phoenix: Stop Rising And Stay Down

phoenix

I’ve been over how I feel about “Phoenix” a few times, but here’s the tl;dr version

  • The best interpretation of “Phoenix” is that it was “Jean Grey’s” actual power not some entity that took her place or inhabits her
  • Making it an entity to bring “Jean Grey” back was an okay way to have their cake and eat it too even though it undercuts the impact of the original story
  • Every appearance since then has made the whole thing stupider make less sense
  • Also on an barely related note get rid of the “young past X-men” (the original X-men were brought to the future and it’s dumb) and say there from an alternate reality. Also either bring back the real adult “Jean Grey” or leave her permanently dead.

There’s more to say about “Phoenix” and the rest of “Avengers 1,000,000,000 BC” , but I’ll save that for tomorrow. Speaking of which, tomorrow these guys talk even more about the Prehistoric Revenge Squad. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

What you guys think about “Phoenix” though?

The next big event happening with “Marvel” is “Generations” and part of that is a series called “Marvel Legacy”. Part of that is the introduction of “Avengers 100,000,000 BC”. Confused yet? To blatantly steal a line from “Watchmen” “don’t be alarmed that only indicates you are still sane”.

watchmen

If you haven’t seen the team it features Odin, “Agamotto” (the guy whose eye “Dr. Strange” wears), and a “Hulk”-looking guy whose a“Star Brand” (“Star Brand” is a “New Universe” character “Marvel” has been trying to make happen for the last few years).

fetch

Also there are version of “Phoenix”, “Iron Fist”, “Ghost Rider” (who rides a flaming Mastadon!!!), and “Black Panther”.

My kneejerk reaction is “this is stupid and makes no sense for a whole host of reason”, BUT the art looks good. So even though I’m going to make fun of this all week in these comics I’ll actually try to give it a fair chance when it comes out. Fingers crossed folks…

Tomorrow these guys return and continue on about the “Prehistoric Revenge Squad”. Hope ya enjoy and see ya then!

Getting “Meta” With “Batman”

One thing I get to in this comic is the idea that “Batman” is a “metahuman”. “Metahuman” for those of you not up on “DCComics” lingo is “people with powers”. It has something to do with “Hawkman” metal or something, but it doesn’t matter. What is with “DC” and undermining the entire point of their characters? If “Batman” has powers he’s not “Batman”. If he kinda sorta has powers then there’s no point in saying he does. If “Batman” murders people like in “BVS” he’s not “Batman”. While we’re at it:

  • If “Superman” is a guy who constantly scowls he’s not “Superman”
  • If “Barry Allen” is some young isolated weirdo he’s not “Barry Allen”
  • If “Aquaman”… Actually who cares. Though “hook hand” “Aquaman” kicked ass

At least they’re not doing what “Marvel” is doing with “Secret Empire”. How long is that going to take to end? That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesdays-Thursdays. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Wonder Woman : Now They’re Just Getting Greedy

I’ve harped on “Wonder Woman” a lot, but the level to which it is overrated keeps ramping up. It has now gone from “ridiculous” to “fanatical”. It’s so bad that I thought maybe I was too harsh on it so I got a cammed version so I could watch it again… Nope it’s a C+ movie. At best. I wouldn’t give ya shit if you gave it a B, but it’s a C movie. I still need to re-watch “Man Of Steel” to see if it’s even the best “DCEU” movie. I went into pretty good detail about the flaws so I won’t bore you with that again. I’m not saying it’s completely without merit or it’s terrible. It has “heart”. Which is pretty much the film equivalent of “she’s got a nice personality”.

I bring all this up because supposedly now there’s a campaign for “Wonder Woman” to get an “Oscar”.

pac

foh

This is just greedy. You skated by on a mediocre movie. Don’t be like Trump. Take your “technical” win with some humility. Learn from the mistakes and come back with a movie that actually deserves the praise. Knowing how things work if it does get nominated it will probably get an “Oscar” for something. If this happens they should give it to the people who made “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2”. A movie that is better written, has more and better action, is funnier, and actually has more “heart” in it’s own way. So far it is BY FAR the best superhero movie this year.

Oh and as far as the comic, just in case it wasn’t clear Salty Sandy is basically “Petter Potts”. Tomorrow Admiral A, Admiral Star, The Good Knight, and Slowku discuss a contest and an induction. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Ya know what I really liked? I like when “The Punisher” was off by himself in an R-rated comic that was part of “Marvel’s” “Max line” of comics. “The Punisher” could be in violent messed-up stories and wouldn’t be involved in some terrible crossover. Sadly, those days are gone… They went and brought him back in the normal “Marvel Universe”. Now with this “Secret Invasion” crossover they got going on he’s part of “Hydra”. Ugh!

There’s a rationale for it, and I guess it kinda makes sense but still… Ugh! He shouldn’t be in this the first place. He should be murdering mobsters by the truckload. That would be bad enough, but lately “Marvel” and “DCComics” have been playing “bad idea chicken”. As far as comics “Marvel’s” been winning this race to the bottom for a while now. “Marvel” is going to up the ante by making “The Punisher” the new “War Machine”. Yep kill off one of the few Black characters that’s isn’t just a poor man’s version of a White hero and replace him with a White guy who shouldn’t even be involved in the first place. What even needs to be said at this point?

Tomorrow these guys return and Spiderous-Man elaborates on what he wants The Innovator to do. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

ccc-233-hazardhandsadmiralstarluscioustrappandblindfurytemplate-01ccc-233-hazardhandsadmiralstarluscioustrappandblindfurytemplate2-01

We close out this week with Admiral Star hiring this world equivalents to “The Defenders” as body guards. With this whole “setting up Admiral Star to be robbed” thing there’s a lot of pieces moving. Let’s review them…

People Burned By Admiral Star Who Are Actively Plotting The Setup

  • Spiderous-Man
  • (Perfect) Spiderous-Man
  • Admiral Fire – says she can ensure she’ll be temporarily defenseless

People Who Know About The Setup But Are Not Stopping It

  • Freedom Female – Purely out of nihilism because achieving her dream of a successful (but not very good) movie has left her Defense
  • J-Pop – tried to warn Admiral Star but got a nasty voicemail for the trouble, now her attitude is screw it

People Are Unwittingly Setting Up The Time And Place Of The Robbery

  • Special-Man, The Good Knight/ The American World Protectors Of America (tricked by Spiderous-Man suggesting that Admiral Star be put on the team)

People Potentially Defending Admiral Star

  • The Defense Squad (Blind Fury, Luscious Trapp, Johanna Johnson, & Hazard Hands)
  • Slowku
  • Her teammates the Celestial Admirals

One thing I didn’t mention that came out during “San Diego Comic” was the teaser for “Krypton”. Why is this happening? There’s something fundamental that people just aren’t getting. Story start at a certain point because that’s the part where it gets interesting. I got into this before with “Star Wars”. Does anyone really care what happened on “Krypton”? If they do, do they care enough to watch a whole series about it. Prequels are almost universally a bad idea. I can’t think of one good one.

Flashback stories can work if they help to inform what’s going on currently. Straight up prequels though? Nah! Plus it’s on “Syfy” channel and I can’t even remember the last time a good show was on there.

Tomorrow Admiral Star talks to Hazard Hands, Luscious Trapp, and Blind Fury about “defense”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
