Your new favorite comic

Wolverine has faced a lot of deadly enemies in his time.

The Hulk.

Sabretooth.

Wendigo.

Deadpool.

But now he's come up across an enemy so implacable . . . so deadly . . . so CUDDLY, that only ONE of them will walk away.

Coming This Spring . . .



WOLVERINE VS. PANDA

EATS, SNIKTS, LEAVES


Taken from the previews for part 3 of the mini-series everybody had forgotten about years ago, Ultimate Wolverine Vs. Hulk #3. I'd be a lot happier to see Ult. She-Hulk showing up if the Ultimate-verse wasn't such a burning bag of dog poo lately, Ult. Spidey excepted.

YOU Are The Man-Thing! And Hulk!

I have yet to fully sit through these read-along comic books but I am presenting them here for our mutual enjoyment/confusion later.





Poor Squishy Man-Thing. Always finding dead clowns in his swamp.

Also, HULK!





Why is everything so hard for Hulk?

Two movie trailers - now with added Deadpool!

Blink and you'll miss the ever-hilarious Merc With A Mouth popping in the following previews. Oh, yeah, and this Wolverine guy and some big green dude shows up a lot in them too.



Emma Frost is there too? What the hell? Okay, random.



"Flamin' idiot." Hee hee hee. Claremontisms are funny when spoken aloud, bub.

Love, Comic Book Style

I had planned to hammer out the now TWO-month delayed Emma Frost post tonight but, alas, life had other plans. I didn't even manage to pick up new comics today, so Haiku Reviews will also be delayed until tomorrow evening.

In the spirit of forgetting the day's troubles, I cheerfully present the following:

A fanboy recounts a sort-of long-distance love affair that started with a letter in The Incredible Hulk #208

Chris Sims knows what love is and he wants to show you.

And from the above thread's comments section, I present this touching story of why Pulitzer-prize winning author Michael Chabon loves Big Barda.

Don't make me angry, Mister McGee

This has been making the rounds for some time but I thought I'd link to it anyways (via Blog@Newsarama & elsewhere) -

All 117 Reasons Dr. Banner Transformed Into the Hulk on the TV Show.

My personal favorites include (but are not limited to):

50. Receiving a speeding ticket

115. Trying to help his friend for the episode, the midget wrestler known as "Half Nelson", by climbing into the ring for him, only to be clobbered by a large, beefy wrestler who practices numerous combination moves on David, in spite of David (and Jack McGee)'s numerous cries of "Stop! You don't know what you're doing! You're making me ANGRY!"

38. Placed in a small room with a ravenous black panther

102. Coming to the aid of the gumshoe in the garage who is being beaten up for not minding HIS own business, and getting beaten up himself, kicked under a low riding sportscar that has been jacked up for repairs, and whose jack is removed so that the car can fall on David. Gumshoe's reaction, in voiceover narration: "It was a big green thing, and it definitely wasn't happy about something."

24. Being tied up and fed soup by an elderly Japanese woman who doesn't understand words like "You've GOT to cut me loose!"

And the piece de resistance -

108. Having several clay pots broken over his head in the middle of the now-burning room (why is the room always burning?), and then knocking an entire case of same clay pots onto same head, and then, while lying very still and struggling not to get angry, having his pants catch fire.

Y: The Last Hulk

Between severe insomnia and busy workdays at Teh Factory O' Suck, I've been slacking in my blogging. I can tell from my comments section how deeply upset and betrayed most of you feel and I apologize to you, my loyal fans.

I have, however, managed to create a fake preview for the final issue of Y: The Last Man involving a very new direction with a very large green man. Please go see it and enjoy my hard (okay, minimal) work!

Failing that, please enjoy this AMV of Jonathan "The Cake Is A Lie" Coulton's song Code Monkey that neatly encapsulates my battle with General Malaise (of the Insomnia Brigade):
