  1. What movies/TV shows need to be made into comics?

    in Comic Book Adaptations

    Posted

    I get the impression that 24 would work as a comic - you could put the time in the superscript boxes (what's the proper name?) and have each hour be it's own issue.

    24 would make for an awesome comic, however flipping through 22 pages in less than 10 minutes isn't the same as watching the show in one-hour blocks. And if you take the real time element away from 24, it loses its specialness.

  2. Tommy Vercetti v Punisher

    in Versus Archives

    Posted

    It's the ultimate video game gangster verses the coldest comic book vigilante: Tommy Vercetti v The Punisher.

    Place: New York City

    Conditions: Normal

    Time Period: 1980's

    After taking control of Vice City, Tommy Vercetti sets his sites on a bigger apple -- the Big Apple in fact.

    After serving his country in Vietnam, Frank Castle wanted nothing more than to settle down with his wife and kids. Their deaths at the hands of mobsters, however, spoiled his dreams, and birthed The Punisher.

    Clichéd or not, New York City isn't big enough for the two of them, and someone's leaving in a body bag.

  7. What movies/TV shows need to be made into comics?

    in Comic Book Adaptations

    We've seen a lot of comics made into movies and TV shows, but we don't often see the reverse. So, with that said, what movies or TV shows need to be made into comics? It could be a straight adaptation, a miniseries, or ongoing.

    TV:

    Sopranos

    MOVIES:

    28 Days Later

    The Lord of the Rings (I know it's a book!)

    Harry Potter (I know it's a book!)

    From Dusk Till Dawn

    Heathers

    The Man with No Name trilogy

    Kill Bill

  12. Comic Book Trivia

    Why did Odin adopt Loki?

    Seeing as how it's been over 48 hours without an answer, I'll give it away: Odin led a war that killed Loki's birthfather, and decided to honor the fallen king by adopting his infant son.

    Here's another question: We recently learned that Logan was not Weapon X, but Weapon 10 -- damn those Roman numerals! Shortly thereafter Logan discovered who Weapon I was. Who was Weapon I?

    Batgirl #7, page 22 (splash page) -- Lady Shiva punching Cassandra Cain (Batgirl)

    Batgirl #11, page 11 -- Batman kicking around David Cain

    Cable #5, cover -- Cable diving away from Sinsear

    Fantastic Four (v3) #30, page 22 (3/4 splash page) -- Sue, Johnny, and Ben; Reed in Doom's armor; the return of Doctor Doom in makeshift armor

    GI Joe #2 (Image) pin-up -- Roadblock cooking dinner (not so sure about the issue number; it's either 2 or 3)

    Nightwing (v2) #22, pages 2-3 (double-page spread, splash) -- Nite-Wing and Justice Force (distorted/dream versions of Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, and Tarantula)

    Nightwing (v2) #49, pages 22 (splash page) -- Torque holding someone hostage

    Nightwing (v2) #50, pages 24 -- Nightwing, Torque, and some woman getting blown up

    Ravage 2099 #24, page 3 -- some guys attacking Ravage

    Robin #53, pages 28-29 (double-page spread, splash) -- destroyed Gotham City, no one special

    Spider-Man 2099 #26, pages 2-3 (double-page spread, 1/2 splash) -- Spidey 2099 hangs himself (dream sequence)

    Transmetropolitan #3, pages 4-5 (double-page spread, splash) -- a riot seen from the rooftops, no one special

    There are three other pages in the basement, but someone spilt soda on them. :( Thankfully they weren't pages I cared that much about:

    C.O.P.S. #?, page ? -- unknown characters

    Marvel Christmas Special, page 4 of the Punisher story -- Punisher (dressed as Santa) stopping a thug

    Robotech #?, page 20

    I also have the original script for The Saga of the Swamp Thing #37 written by Alan Moore -- this is the first appearance of John Constantine (It's actually a copy from Moore's collection.)

    I have a small collection of original comic book art, and I was wondering if anyone else on the board collects these one of a kind pieces of comic book history.

    If so, list the book and issue the piece is from, as well as the characters featured on the page.

    Yoda, it does get boring playing it in one-player mode. Any of us can attest to that. The fun of it is in the multiplayer. You can alter the match types almost infinitely. Play it with 3 other people and you'll probably like it a lot more.

    I don't have three people to play it with. :( And even if I did, I only have two controllers.

    And should this thread be changed to the "Official Smash Brothers Melee thread"?

    Done... and I should probably pin it too, but I won't 'cause I still don't get this game. :P

    I get it, so I shall pin it. Cheap Heat's first official mod.

    What was that you said on DS9 when Lauren was promoted to Admin...? Oh, I remember, "I've got a feeling Cheap Heat will become Cock Hair." Well guess what... :D

    I kid!

    I knew I should have said "alcoholism". From this point on only sentient beings, or I will lock this. Sorry to be a dick, but this can be a fun game if we don't get too silly.

    I'm going back to Daredevil, and saying he was beaten by Bullseye when he killed Karen Page.

  25. Best Mario Power Thing

    I was always partial to Star Mario (invincible) with a Flower. What could possibly beat an unstoppable fireball-throwing Italian plumber? Nothing I say, nothing! Since that isn't up there, I'll vote Fire Mario.

    Feather Mario (with the cape) would own Flying Raccoon Mario any day of the week, people.
