    How did they stop all those heroes from falling to their deaths when gravity guy lost his concentration? Did Reed turn himself into a giant ball and welcome them all into his bosom?

    What happened was there was this minion of Graviton (the guy in the middle of the third page) who was actually using Graviton's gravity powers to open a wormhole to allow an alien invasion to come through. Fixer killed the guy, and Karla was able to talk Graviton down at the end, which was to put all the cities in the world back down (he lifted them up too) and put the heroes back. This then made all the Thunderbolts outside of Songbird and Hawkeye wind up on the Heroes Reborn earth

    The last 25 issues of the first Thunderbolts run, excluding the fight club schtick, are some of the most fluid and fun issues where everything happened. Zemo being a good guy, Clint in jail, more villains trying to reform, stuff with Justin Hammer's legacy....

    To celebrate the Basketball coming back to entertain us with it's dribbling and its hoops making, here are some pages from Godzilla vs. Barkley, made in 1993:
    Godzilla is attacking, Barkley is made giant size because of a magic silver dollar a kid gave him to fight Godzilla:

    and then Barkley sets up a basketball goal in the grand canyon to keep him busy

    Robos' post reminded me of the end of Godzilla 2000 so I youtube'd it

    And I laughed so hard.

    For those who haven't seen it, Godzilla has beaten the monster as well as the bad humans who tried to destroy him and is about to walk off into the sunset yet again:

    You know, someone needs to do a Marvel or DC series about a superhero that fights giant monsters.

    Actually, that should just be the next Hank Pym series. I refuse to believe that someone could fail to make Pym cool if he was wrestling giant radioactive crocodiles or punching out mutated supergorillas.

    I believe in the original Exiles there was a universe they went to where Pym was on Curt Conner's Science Squad and what they largely did was fight giant monsters.

    Man, I knew I should have finished buying the Exiles TPBs.

    Also, how to make Hank Pym cool in one panel: Have him lay a backhand on Fin Fang Foom. Or possibly Googam, son of Goom.

    Everyone would forget all about that Wasp business.

    Jeez, I'm going to spend the next few days thinking about how awesome a book about Pym facing off against the classic Marvel monsters would be, and sullenly thinking about how I'll never get to read it.

    A giant version of Ultron. That is who they should show him slapping. It could be a double page spread.

    I thought it was perhaps a little focusing mantra Bullseye uses to calm himself in a fight. I haven't read anything with Bullseye before, I knew he was a psycho, but thought because he was also and awesome martial artist he might have been classically trained by a master somewhere and learnt those kind of mantras.

    Preferred that to it being a line from a song, but oh well.

    bullseye's whole deal is kind of that he's a fucking psycho who wouldn't have any kind of patience for classical training at all, which is why it's weird that he'd say anything more obscure than a "surf's up, pal!" type quip when killin'.

    From Firestorm #25 and #26;

    Firestorm has just rushed off to battle Killer Frost and Mr. Freeze, leaving his socially awkward girlfriend Gehenna, and his stoic father alone in his apartment together.

    Later, after Killer Frost attaches a rocket to his back, Jason battles the villainess in space, eventually neutralizing her inside a block of ice. He returns to Earth with Killer Frost in tow, scanning the area for Mr. Freeze. While his back's turned, Frost begins to escape from her icy prison, only to be struck with a freeze ray. Jason turns and finds..

    Having posted these, allow me to point out two things: 1) Gehenna was way too cool to be cannon fodder in Geoff Johns's most recent paint-by-numbers event. 2) The last time Batman pointed a gun at someone and shouted, "Do I make myself clear?!" the God of All Evil pissed his pants and died.

    And here's an old Flash Gordon strip, which I'll spoil due to h-scroll breakage.
