    This is exactly why I couldn't get excited for this game. Great comic.

    The guy claiming to be the Thing actually is the thing, because you'll notice he has blue eyes, just as the Everlovin' Blue-eyed Thing ought to. the disparager is the real imposter.

    Speaking of eyes, why can we see Daredevils?

    Instanced MMO's are not my cup of tea.

    Edit: I guess that's all of them?

    Coincidentally, I was just watching Tobias' episode of Arrested Development Season 4 last night!

    I feel like I might have lost touch with gaming news a bit. I did not realize there was a Marvel themed MMO. Or is this in regard to that Marvel hack'n'slash Diablo clone made by former Blizzard North employees?

    Oddly enough, I was reading the FF Omnibus by John Byrne last night and they had a reprint of Marvel Two-in-One where the Thing goes back in time and runs into (and fights) himself.

    Great comic. Based on the eyes and the expressions, I get the impression that The Thing is supposed to be played by Gabe and Daredevil is supposed to be Tycho. Am I just grasping at straws?

    since when does The (A?) Thing wear big blue pants instead of the classic big blue diaper?

    Since years and years. Blue pants or shorts (or the black and white singlet during the Future Foundation period).

    It's more like Diablo. I don't know who exactly made it. I gave it a try and to me it came off as a disappointing sequel to the Ultimate Alliance games.

    The fact that the first two panels were initially confusing made it more funny when I got it, if that makes sense.

    Going by the newspost this does indeed seem to be the case.

    My buddy is addicted to this game I don't understand why.
