Yay! I'm a tool!!!

Remember when Dr Strange had a weird Spawn costume for a bit? WTF was up with that? Ninja wannabe, I guess. Here's a trivia question for you: What do Captain America, a screwdriver, a hammer, a wrench, and a heavy metal band that does "Sober" and "Prison Sex" have in common? Answ...

Soundwave was always my 'Con leader. Well, I had Ratbat, but he never had that honor in my collection. A friend had a bootleg Shockwave, so when we got together, we just pretended Megatron had died. As a teen, I bought Bludgeon and Thunderwing (yes, he was a toy, and a damn cheap one, too) to make u...

Green Lantern lame? I assume you're all referring to that Kyle Rayner shit-stain who took over from Hal "The Coolest Damn Hero Ever" Jordan and Guy "The Coolest Damn Anti-Hero Ever" Gardner. Ben Reilly could've been decent, if they'd brought him back, said he was Spidey, and stuc...

(In my best Asian-accented Valley Girl voice. . . .)

"What, like the back of a Volkswagen, y'know?"

Namor an Aquaman ripoff? Considering that he first appeared in a movie theater giveaway comic book (which was later reprinted as Marvel Mystery Comics #1) waaaaaay back in 1938 or 1939, I'd say Namor is the one being copied. Check out the Byrne run on the 90s Namor series. Pretty cool stuff, with ex...

Something about Aquaman makes me think of Saddam Hussein and Satan in Hell, going through fourteen bottles of vegetable oil.

Damn, that's a scary thought. I don't care if it was on TV last night, it still makes me shudder today.

It's a crossover with a G1 universe parallel to the animated, Marvel, and Dreamwave. Yes, yet another G1 continuity to keep up with. Armada Optimus ended up there somehow, and the Galvatron, Bludgeon, Dirge, Scourge, and Thunderwing of that reality are apparently going from reality to reality, destr...

It's okay. After my wife fell in love with "Kurt Wagner. . . but in the Munich Circus they called me the mighty Nightcrawler" when she saw X2, I'm used to chicks falling for the blueberry muffin. Y'know, if the Comic Code Authority still existed (I'm not sure when it finally vanished, but ...

Dude, why would a chick with no sex organs do that? Weird.

You seen the new ad for Unicron? It's obvious that when it went to production, they didn't have access to Armada eps with him, because it shows Armada Optimus Prime (with, I believe, the wrong voice), then cuts to Unicron laying waste to Cybertron. . . from the movie!

. . . which had Garry Shandling on the cover. "Oh, man, I love Garry Shandling!!" he squealed. "Garry Shandling?" Mo Henry shouted, turning. "I've been wanting to kill the SOB for hours!" Now that his attention was turned from J-Lo, she pulled out her handy-dandy. . . .

Dr Strange, lame? C'mon! You gotta love that battle cry: "By the horny toads of Hogwarts!" Or whatever.

Shakes the Clown didn't resort to plot devices! That movie rocks!!

Zartan is a ninja! Duuuuuhh!!

If clowns are the enemies of ninjas, does that make mimes ninjas (or at least friends of ninjas)? After all, they're silent, they wear black, and they're mammals. Haven't seen one kill for fun, but who knows what they do in their spare time?
