Welcome back Anons! Who the hell saw this coming?
No one sees the Moleman coming.
Just like no one wants to see the Moleman cumming.
So I'm surprised the last thread is still around. Usually they're archived before I get back from work.
>>84181115
>"Nobody ever wants to see Moleman cumming..."
For obvious reasons I can't post a reaction image, but can you all pretend I posted a picture of Hans Moleman from the Simpsons?
>>84181076
>Who the hell saw this coming?
I certainly didn't but god damn anyone who doesn't love the Mole Man.
Don't worry Anons, my Internet is back to normal, so I can post quickly again.
>>84181118
Yeah, that is a bit weird. It wasn't even a particularly deep thread, all told, given how few issues you ran.
Clearly Danny has been taking lessons from Batroc.
Huh, that's a weird thing in the bottom panel. Almost seems unfinished, you know?
>>84181202
Well as promised, I intend to do last night's share of issues in addition to tonight's.
>"I ain't gonna cry..."
>Gets Three Stooge'd against his buddy's head
Credit where it's due, you know Luke's wanted to do that for a while.
Be honest with me, Anons. Is it wrong that I wanted to link my thread in that Iron Fist thread?
So going by this fourth panel, it looks like Luke's tiara somehow stays shiny. Do you think he polishes it properly, or just cleans it with soap?
>>84181378
It is kinda relevant.
DW? What are you doing he-
Wait, no, it's just an unrelated long haired blonde white guy.
So it looks like Luke, at the very least, THINKS Lava would kill him.
Have you ever wanted to see Iron Fist fight the Mole Man in a one-on-one fight? I'm sure you all have.
So since the Moloids are fighting too, I guess we can assume Iron Fist would win.
Welp, guess we're gonna find out if Luke's steel hard skin can handle lava.
>>84181552
It seems like a safe assumption to make.
>"Luke and Fist meet Goldeneye"
Eh, I was more of a Perfect Dark kind of Anon.
>Cinderblock to the head
The fuck is this, Loony Toons?
>"Ouch"
Man, he's jaded.
>>84181766
Nah, then it would be an anvil.
>>84181740
>My eyes are up here!
>>84181801
I didn't know anvils were real until I was 12, because I thought they were only used for cartoons.
Jimmy, don't!
>>84181888
What kind of music does Danny like? Shamisen? Mongolian throat singing?
>>84181867
I knew anvils were real, I just thought they were a kind of anchor because also used anchors as a generic heavy object.
>>84181962
See, I knew Anchors were real because I live near boats.
>>84181822
I hate when they're inconsistent with the eye pieces on Danny's mask. Sometimes they're white, sometimes they're open and just show his eyes. Sometimes they'll just switch between panels like on this page.
>>84181945
Foo Fighters.
Nothing but Foo Fighters all day, everyday.
He's not the best person to bring on a 5+ hour road trip.
>>84181977
It's fairly consistent. They're white, until they zoom in.
>>84181978
I feel like he'd spend most of it meditating. So just don't let him near the radio, and he'd be good.
>>84182007
He has a slowed down instrumental version of Kung Fu Fighting.
>>84182043
Oh god, you may be right.
Okay Luke, why the hell did you even think that was a good idea?
Why is a laser sniper rifle better than a regular one?
>>84182059
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VRDKl2LBkE
>>84182137
Lasers make everything better, it's just a basic fact of the universe.
>>84182161
And apparently they mess with your central nervous system too.
>>84182070
What would be the GOOD result of spanking a grown man?
And that guy's dead.
>>84182207
Seriously, I can't think of an upside to this plan.
After all that trouble, the idiot just jumps off a cliff?!
And suddenly, Moon Knight!
>>84182309
Is this an issue where his secret identity is in danger?
Again.....
>>84182343
I don't think so. Or at least no more than his life.
>and then there was the time Luke tried to teach Danny how to speak ebonics.
>>84182351
I don't read much Moon Knight, but I kid you not, I've never read an story where someone hasn't made his secret identity public or it's become at risk.
Oh god, Moon Knight's mask looks horrifying. No wonder he wears a hood.
>>84182264
>Maybe my DRUGS ARE BAD moral is too subtle...I know, he jumps off a cliff because he's too high to remember what gravity is!
>>84182394
I've only read Ellis's run on Moon Knight, so I can't even pretend to know anything about him. I'm in the middle of a big Vertigo readthrough now, in preperation for another storytime in god knows how many months.
Look at the size of this guy's face! It's massive!
>"Suddenly, TRUCK!"
... This is some bullshit.
Seriously, this is up there with "I learned some tricks in the Orient" in terms of sheer nonsense.
>>84182578
>Commodore Planet
I didn't know Captain Planet had a spin-off.
>>84182651
He got a promotion too.
>>84182593
I could accept this from like, the Kingpin.
>>84182675
Kingpin's at least got some name recognition to him. This is just some asshole.
What the hell is Moon Knight's costume made of that he can't just do a Dead Man's float?
Well, I suppose Moonie's secret identity is technically a problem NOW.
>>84182722
he's all muscle. he'd sink like a stone. really muscular people have to actively stay afloat.
And you thought the first issue was subtle about drugs?
>>84182774
Really? Huh, I did not know that. Then again, I've never exactly been swole.
Wait, I thought DW's girlfriend had light hair.
>it's a Luke Cage fights acid episode
>>84182807
Minor supporting characters are allowed to break up offscreen.
>>84182854
Is this a new girlfriend, or did they forget her hair color?
Remember Black Mamba, Anons?
>>84182879
You mean Black Mariah? Also, D.W. suddenly being horribly depressed and lacking purpose is new, but this is O'Neal writing.
>>84182919
See, I THOUGHT it was Black Mariah, but I googled it to make sure, and google brought up "Black Mamba" first.
Remember this glorious motherfucker?
Notice that Scythe has yet to appear since.
And here we see our hero get his ass kicked by a fat broad.
You ever have mysterious men give you vague advise and then vanish?
>>84183008
I'll take "she was underestimated and had poison on hand" over "he learned mysterious secrets in the orient".
>>84182137
Bullets are effected by gravity, which can play merry hell with your accuracy depending on how far away the target is. Not so with a Laser, which goes in a straight line, however far away you're firing.
>>84183076
One of them is funny, and the other is fucking retarded. I'll let you decide which is which.
>>84183081
Plus, you never have to account for wind.
>>84183081
>>84183135
Shit, I was taking the piss, but that makes sense. Almost worth not being able to take out the enemy easily.
>>84181867
Is Luke eating that knife, or just picking his teeth with it?
>>84183165
Yes
Oh hey, DW's okay.
>>84183113
Clearly the one with the lethal knitting needles is the hilarious one.
And let's finish up tonight with this issue. What do you think, Anons?
>>84183215
It's the fact that she's fat as fuck that makes it hilarious.
OP do you have existing work so you don't want to fill the image limit?
>>84181254
I can see what they were trying for in that final panel; something akin to a motion blur type of thing. The execution didn't really pan out, but it's nice to see an artist trying new things.
>>84183245
What do you mean existing work?
So Alicia's clayworks are so lifelike because she feels things, right? That's the explaination?
How did she get that close to the Super Skrull?
>>84183270
Your real-life job.
>>84181492
It's surprisingly well-lit for a subterranean cave deep beneath the earth!
>>84183311
Oh, yeah. It's why I can only do storytimes in these backwards-ass hours.
So was Ben always this insecure?
>>84181552
I admire the artist for including those iconic Kirby-style fucked-up monster teeth on the moloids. It's a nice little nod to the classics.
I'd love to see this game in motion, to see how bullshit it is.
>>84183204
hahaha... Luke's face in the lower right corner of this last panel.
>>84181599
Here's the thing that always bugs me about high-tech weaponry like the Mole Man's staff there: If it were a gun... just like, an average gun that you could buy in any regular shop anywhere in America, no matter how obviously fucked-up or mentally ill you are... that shot would have been lethal, right? He has this supposedly high-tech weapon which is much less effective and much less powerful than a handgun which could have been bought over the counter even a hundred years beforehand. Why even bother lugging around a weapon with so little firepower when something so much more effective is so readily-available?
Before you make the jokes, this is four years before the team X-Factor forms.
>>84183331
Yes. Remember when Luke temporarily replaced Ben on the F4, and the whole time Ben was a huge bitch about it?
>>84183393
I forgot, and I freaking storytimed the issue.
>>84183378
Apparently "because lasers"
Man, that's a good bluff.
>that bottom left face
>>84183378
Well there probably aren't any Gun Stores where Mole Man lives, plus you don't need a license for weird ass lasers, so harder for the law to Trace.
Along with the fact the beam is not affected by wind or gravity like bullets would be. It doesn't work on Luke, but then, what does?
Power Man vs The Thing! Who will win?!
The Thing. Very clearly, The Thing wins.
Oh no, it looks like Luke is still in the fight, despite the fact that at least two different buildings have been destroyed.
>>84183410
I remembered because Ben finally got what he always wanted, and he still complained about it.
>>84183500
Ironically, the one thing that would make Ben happy was if he could go "Thing Ring, do your thing!"
A tip for you budding superheroes, NEVER stand on the obvious symbol in the middle of the bad guy's office.
God damn it Ben, aren't you supposed to be smarter than that?
And that's it for tonight Anons. I'll see you tomorrow night for more Power Man & Iron Fist!
>>84183204
I like to think that Luke's pupils in this last panel are the result of his having handled all that acid earlier in the book.
>>84182337
Who let Bob Harras take over a radio station?
>>84183244
>>84183270
So are these kids an actual gang or bunch or middle schoolers that snuck into the Warriors one night?
>>84183300
How'd she get that close to Uatu?
>>84183331
Outside of some of the very earliest interpretations, where he was a bit more broody and deadpan.
>>84184343
Six of one, half dozen of the other.
>>84181740
Was falling asleep last night. Picking up from where I left off.
Sorry for dropping off with the comments. Was wiped.
And even now I need to get to work soon, so I think I can only get one issue in.
>>84181932
Oh, so now Luke wants teenagers fawning over him, when like 3 issues ago he was angry to get paid for it.
>>84182254
Rip Chord died as he lived: Like a total moron.
>>84181945
https://youtu.be/dWqY8qrBBSI
>>84182401
Did Frenchie and Batroc ever have a Hon Hon Hon Off where they tried to out-French each other with ridiculous cheeses?
>>84182736
Y'know, putting Cage through a wall seems to push him into at least the mildly superhuman, and makes it a bit less bullshit that he was noselling Iron Fist.
>>84182942
>"Black Mamba"
Black Mamba is one of Diamondback's Serpent Society/B.A.D. Girls friends that I think become relevant to these threads in the 00s.
>>84183222
What? A The Thing beat em up with Power Man and Iron Fist as bosses? This isn't what I keep asking for!
>>84183336
Denys Cowan's art gets super stylized down the road.
>>84183391
It does seem like the kind of mass market branding that Cameron Hodge would have suckered Warren into putting out, though (especially if a chunk of the money could get refunneled into The Right battlesuits)
>>84183496
I think the reason why Mr Fantastic can't cure cancer is that he's too busy with money making schemes to pay off all the damage Ben does.
>>84183509
It must be fun to be comic book evil and be able to shout Quiet Fool at people.
>>84193364
>super stylized
is it wrong that i really, really like this?
>>84193586
It really is, but only of your people are willing to put up with your shenanigans. Nothing deflates your sails quicker than being told, in response, to "get rooted you prick."
>>84181822
So tired of being reminded that he spent 10 years studying martial arts in "the lost city of K'un-Lun" -- almost as bad as "I'm the man with the steel-hard skin and 300 lbs of muscle".
>>84194969
Which is the real reason so many villains off their henchmen.
>>84182070
Pretty sure that Luke was just too pissed to think straight.
>>84195623
That was one of Jim Shooter's rules. You had to be able to pick up any comic in the series, and be able to understand the character.
>>84195824
Not that anon but it does get pretty irritating when you're doing mass readthroughs like what we're doing now.
Which, let's be fair, was not how anyone who printed comics in 1982 really planned for comics to be read.
Even back issue marathons were going to be a comparatively rare thing given how the LCS and Diamond hadn't completely taken over yet.
>>84182593
>>84182615
Jesus, Spector, take his dead ass apart and make a goddamn ladder out of 'im!
>>84183378
Yeah, and if every hero carried a gun, they could just shoot most of the bad guys.
>>84198471
Yeah, but how many supervillains would that work on?
>>84199367
Not everyone is bulletproof.
>>84199594
Enough are though.
Woah, this thread is still around too? Well, I might as well fill up this thread with a few more issues.
Look at the size of that... what is that, a silencer?
I hope we see Tahitha and Clyde here more, as recurring side characters who's dates always get ruined by our heroes' antics.
Remember that none of this would've happened if this guy didn't jump the gun on Luke and Danny.
So did O'Neil just forget that half of Harmony's face got Sabertooth'd?
>"The boy is probably the person known as Iron Fist."
Danny officially has the worst kept secret identity in comics.
>>84202730
I'm not /k/, but I think that's just the barrel.
>>84202977
Well that's just silly.
>>84202921
Maybe she has a healing factor too.
I like to pretend that Luke threw the soda machine, continuing the feud that the writers have long since gotten rid of.
>>84203072
I need to go back and count all the soda machine encounters.
>>84203113
As long as you're going so far back, you might as well count how many times Luke got his shirt destroyed.
Remember back in the old days where not only did characters smoke, you could make that a plot point?
>Iron Fist goes through all this ninja crap to get into the office without setting off an explosion from just a scent of smoke
>Luke almost blows them all up anyway
See, this kind of loyalty would be inspiring, if it wasn't for the fact that not only did he kill HIMSELF, he only had himself to blame for his arrest. They literally didn't know he was there until he went up to them with a gun!
Deserters? You straight up said they could leave!
I'm pretty sure telling the bad guys to jump in a lake isn't very good negotiating...
>>84203165
>we will never be free of the Quesada
Does anyone know if a silk shirt costs more than... what is that, a fur coat?
>Danny Rand in a fake beard
I dunno, you could probably use that gun as a boomerang or something, like in that one issue of Grayson.
>>84203347
It's hard to tell from the art, for all we know it's a cheap coat from a thrift shop. It doesn't look that nice.
And that's it for this issue. Now we go on to one of their appearances in a different book...
You thought it was going to be Power Man and Iron Fist, but it wasDAZZLER!
You thought you'd be free of her if you stayed away from X-Anon? Nope, the torrent I used counted these stories, so you're stuck reading her here too!
I think I'll just let the series speak for itself, just this once. So you can all really "experience" Dazzler.
I can only assume they started the issue with pages upon pages of the heroine in nothing but her underwear was an attempt to get reader attention.
This was back when you could still do that without getting undue attention.
>>84203657
In other words, you can't be bothered to read it?
>>84203719
Maybe.
>>84181076
I just saw these guys in Avengers EMH. Didn't know they were like an official team. Is it just this one run or are they team mates more often?
>>84203747
They're together less than you'd expect, but in general they're together a lot.
>>84203747
They're team mates often and friends always.
And HERE they are, only halfway into the issue.
>>84203657
Her half sister's name is Lois London. This might be the single most comicbooky sounding name I've ever heard.
>>84203836
Turns out that's a real person's name too. She's a fasion designer, apparently.
>>84203746
I wouldn't blame you, even X-Anon didn't read them. I mostly just skimmed them, which I think makes me one of the more dedicated readers.
>>84203885
And that Anon has the patience of a saint to even attempt to storytime the labyrinth that is X-Men continuity.
Between X-Anon doing his madness, JSAnon managing to do all of LoSH, Ulti-mate actually finishing all of Ultimate Marvel, in addition to whatever Preacher Anon is doing, I feel like just doing the Heroes for Hire is comparatively small time.
This is why you never shout the details of your evil plans.
A silent motorcycle? That shit is more super-science than some of the other shit that was around at the time in comics, and I feel like that shouldn't be as hard.
Must've been a strong wall if Luke had to put his shoulders into smashing it.
Remember when Rogue had really short hair?
All right Anons, do you think you can suffer through one more Dazzler issue?
>>84204220
And looked kind of old?
>"FUCK YOUR DOOR!"
>>84204243
It's not so much suffering so much as I want this comic to make up its mind whether it's a romance comic or a superhero comic.
I bet you're feeling stupid for kicking the door down now, huh?
>Luke dicking around with a rubber band
>Danny kicking what looks like a coffee mug onto the roof of the room
Our heroes, ladies and gentlemen, hard at work at cracking the case.
>>84182952
Needs this on Netflix in an Luke Cage/Iron Fist team up episode. We'll have Black Mariah set up already, have Scimitar appear in IF and then we're good to go.
LEAVE THE DOOR ALONE! Seriously, one of you two chucklefucks will just break the damn thing in half if you keep kicking it down!
>>84204331
Wait, Rogue's hair is supposed to be red?
>>84204390
Back in these days, maybe. Remember we had Danny's eye color change twice.
Okay, so Rogue is supposed to be exactly as strong as Carol Danvers was, right?
Can you imagine this happening now? Luke Cage managing to match Carol blow for blow? Power Creep is a hell of a thing.
I can't tell if it was the punch that took Luke out of the fight, or the four-five story fall onto a solid steel garbage can.
