Renee Montoya Presents the General Comics Question(s) Thread!

DJ EebsDJ Eebs Moderator, Administrator admin
edited November 2008 in Graphic Violence
Do you have questions about comic books? Are they kind of stupid? This is where you ask them!

Do you want to know when the Question became a lady? Do you want to know if Rorschach will be replaced by a lady in the eagerly awaited Watchmen 2: Alan Moore Finally Sells Out? This is your place!

This thread brought to you by Greg Rucka.

    Should be titled "The General Comics Question Thread - the total focus of Geebs' mod abilities, in thread form".

    I have a question: why haven't we had a Super Hero/Super Villain fight tournament this year?

    Second question: why the hell did we not finish up the GV comic tournament? I still have my script from the third round sitting around.

    Did anybody bring up today's Lying in the Gutter yet?

    If any of it is true, holy shit is there some serious fuck ups going on in DC.

    http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=18852

    Notably: Robinson quitting due to argument with Didio and Didio ordering massive rewrites of the end of FC.

    Rich is usually something like 60% right about things so at the very least things are a bit tense over there.

    edit: ah i see it being discussed in that OTHER thread. okay!

    Yeah, it became really ridiculous when everyone absolutely disregarded the environments. (You can't throw shit when you are underwater!) although I think I had sworn off the battles by that point.

    What was the premise?

    I think the situation was The Brave and the Bold vs. Dr. Light II, and we were allowed to bring in 2 characters for our hero and 2 for the opposition. I had Dr. Light team up with Superman and Wonder Woman, while Black Panther brought in Storm and Squirrel Girl. Squirrel Girl is all starstruck and honored to be fighting with T'Challa, and promises to do her best. After BP points out the other trio and says they're the enemy, Squirrel Girl proceeds to put the beat down on all three of them, while BP and Storm do their annoying lovey-dovey couple thing. The ending panel had BP walking away with Storm on his right and SG on his left, his arms around their shoulders, and the punch-line was a question about whether SG's cheeks were like a squirrel's too.

    Oh man I had forgotten about this argument. Man, that got really out of hand.

    Also Robos I did not know you were hooraydiation, that whole thing was when I first really started reading the forums on a daily basis

    Oh shit I just looked up the Rules pages for both threads and it made me remember JCM's terribleness

    The Hero/Villain tournaments were fun once but there's not much point to doing them again, it's not like there's a ton of new characters every year, or even old major ones that we missed. It'd just be repeats.

    Also, glad to hear Exiles is done. Maybe one day it can be revived in a form that doesn't make me want to stab the writer. Also, with Blink and Nocturne.

    and the quick and easy answer is that I'm not doing tournaments anymore because I won't follow through and I don't want to start something I know I won't finish

    if someone else wanted to do something, they can talk to me or servo and we can maybe work something out, but I'm not sure the demand is there anymore

    dude the super hero and villain fights i can say is something id want to be a part of.

    and by being a part of i mean: belittling someone elses choice with inane logic, hands on my ears saying LALALALALA, simply because their choice is different from mine.

    So pretty much no change from your normal behavior then.

    Guys, I think we should revive the GV comic tournament. Who's with me?
