Bruce Campbell as Mysterio was the subject of one of the Ultimate Spider-man arcs.

[Mongrel]

Bruce Campbell has long been rumored/hoped for as Mysterio, and damnit, Bruce Campbell as Mysterio could carry an entire film himself.

Good God... that would break reality itself. BREAK IT WITH THE POWER OF AWESOME.

So, the Kick-Ass ending.

Yeah, pretty much how I've felt about the series since the Big Daddy/Hit Girl intro holds; it really didn't keep up with its original premise at all.  This is just crazy over-the-top Tarantino violence all the way.

It DOES get quiet at the end, and go back to subverting cliches rather than adhere to them.  Dave confessing the truth to the woman he loves does not go like it would in the movies.

I AM of the opinion that if your story ends with a quote from someone else's work, you've kinda fucked up.  There are exceptions, but I don't count this among them.

Meh.

WHAT THE HELL

... you link to this and not Watchmen?

...a series where every issue ends with a single-panel quotation is rather different from one where the last issue is a full-page spread where the supervillain says a famous quote from another supervillain.  (Incorrectly.)

Raging Bull IS the correct analogy here, because it ends with the main character reciting a famous speech from another film.  Watchmen's final panel is more like a movie where the last line of dialogue is spoken and then the screen goes black and a quotation comes up.  The quotation isn't the most memorable thing about the ending (in fact I had to crack my copy open and flip to the last page to remember which one he used in the final issue), it's just sort of a final touch on it.

Yeah. I can't tell you how excited I am for this. Carol AND Sinestro are in it?
Niiiice. I am throughout the movie you see Sinestro become less and less of a Green Lantern and then finally creates his yellow ring or something.
Carol is an important side character. Next movie she finds the Star Sapphire?
Qwards are the first bad guys?
Gah. There are so many options.

But they have to cut Sinestro's hair and trim his facial hair. Sinestro is supposed to be dapper.

[Mothra]

That's awesome!

[Zaratustra]

I can understand why the JLA doesn't go around Africa killing muslim elders that whip raped women, but isn't there -any- hero that does? and doesn't the JLA try to stop them? In a really awkward scene?

That sounds like something out of The Darker Mask.

Also, rape's only accepted role in comics is to make female characters deep.

Wow, that actually looks pretty keen. At least, based on the cover anyway.

And in order to make the MALES deep, they... rape the women.

Oh! And they murder the women and shove them in appliances.

[Royal☭]

Sometimes you have a character rape an orc so they can fall in love.


In the latest issue of Siege, Brian Michael Bendis has managed to make something that is both horrible and awesome at the same time.  [spoiler]The Sentry rips Ares in half, rather violently[/spoiler].  It's horrible because it's the issue is really just filler, and the violence on display is an example of why Marvel just isn't that fun to read any more.  It's awesome because [spoiler]it's Ares[/spoiler], and I hate that guy.  Seriously, fuck him.  So yeah.
