My vote: New Avengers #27

The whole issue, but specifically:

[spoiler:31417fc5e8]
Luke Cage: I got a message from Matt Murdock
Elektra: Yeah?
Luke Cage: He told me, if I see you, to give you this...
*BAM* [/spoiler:31417fc5e8]

    Incredible Hulk had a couple cool spots. I don't have the ish with me, though, so I can't quote any of it.

    This issue seems like it's pretty far ahead of the rest of the comics. [spoiler:aa24b4ae61] The New Avengers have already reformed and whatnot. Maybe something else happens between Matt and Elektra before the end of the current DD arc? [/spoiler:aa24b4ae61]


    Here is the link to the panel in question. The overall issue was great, but this one moment is pretty quotable in an 'unnecessary roughness' sort of way.

    In a flashback in X-23, a former assassin with the power of invisibility to both the human eye and all electronics has just extorted millions from Wilson Fisk by kidnapping the Kingpin's niece and offering to set her free in exchange for a 20% take from all operations.

    But Wilson Fisk doesn't have a niece...

    Well, in this issue: [spoiler:4a976b0e61]She kidnaps and kills one of his friends, then attempts to brainwash her. He's probably not real happy about that.[/spoiler:4a976b0e61]

    And I nominate Dark Tower #1. All of it.

    [spoiler:dff0c091d5]Super cop kills the guys who almost killed him. With a motherfucking lightsaber that's projecting from his hand. That shit was fucking gruesome and awesome.[/spoiler:dff0c091d5]

    But yeah, that X-23 bit was bad ass. That Trigger is some scary shit. And I'll need to pick up Dark Tower tomorrow to see what you're talking about, Geebs. Diamond screwed up the shipment to my LCS, so they're overnighting it today. It's like I'm a damn magnet for shipping problems.

    I've never read any X-23, and the concept's always seemed really ridiculous to me.

    What Luke Cage did to Elektra was... well lets just say I never thought I'd see that in a Marvel comic! *applaudes*

    And that X-23 panel is indeed keen. Though I have to admit the whole "creepy 85lb girl that can beat up anybody" deal is getting old fast. I like X-23 but it just seems that for the last, oh, five years there is always a creepy little 15 year old girl with tooth picks for limbs that is shown handing 250 pound UFC fighters their asses.

    It's just been done is all.

    Supergirl is an enigma wrapped up in a riddle wrapped up in precious little skirt.

    For me it's got to be 52, as I said in the fitty-two thread.

    Between that and George Takei's licence plate in Heroes I'm having a pretty nerdy week.

    Penciller is Michael Choi. He's good for the most part, but he draws every male about 10 years too young. Laura and her cousin, though, are drawn about 5 years older than they are.

    Also, I'm not totally sure, but I think Salvador Larocca does celebrity references a good bit. It was annoying at first, but now I kinda look at it as if I'm watching a movie. I can almost imagine that either Ellis or Larocca thought "man, if I could make a movie about this, these are the people I'd have in it".

    Uh, yeah, every character is based on a celebrity. I think it's on purpose just because it's so prominent. The cop is Bruce Willis, and the dude who has fire powers or whatever and killed the cops who were about to execute him is Sawyer from Lost.

    The cop started to morph into Vin Diesel for a few pages in issue 3. It was a little disconcerting.

    For some reason, I always thought they weren't allowed to use an actor or actress' likeness in a comic without permission.

    I'm inclined to assume that Marvel has vetted this through their legal department, but, you never know, people can be alarmingly stupid.

    She actually has little in common with Wolverine, claws aside. I actually think she has more in common with Cassandra Cain.

    But then, Batgirl only exists because Batman fanboys need somebody to masturbate to without feeling gay.

    It has come full circle.
