    he's busy playing shadow at the JSA headquarters

    It would also be a boring way to end the fight.

    It would have been fitting, since he freaked out when Nightshade put him in darkness

    I maintain that The Shade could have killed the entire Sinestro Corps within seconds out of being so awesome.

    Although they would have offered him a ring first. Since he's scary.

    And he would've thrown it right back in their faces.

    Oh God, where is that taskmaster scene from?

    That is the definition of badass.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

    So here's scans of last week's Marvel Comics Presents, featuring Taskmaster which I had forgotten to upload.

    Late to the thread, but my Moment of the Week (years late to the party even) would be reading Preacher TPB's 1 and 2 over lunches last week.

    Question about this: Does the Sun's yellow rays have to be filtered by our atmosphere in some way for it to effect Kryptonians? If no, why didn't Superboy-Prime just hang out in the atmosphere soaking up rays?

    Apparently not, according to the last issue of Action Comics.

    Hence the parenthetical. It's somewhat ridiculous.

    But it did make for a cool scene at the end of the issue.

    Obviously, all his yellowy armoryness is interfering with his ability to get a good tan from the yellow sun.

    Or something.
