Meh... I was just trying to put on a storyline...
I wasn't trying to put you down, I'm just saying the scenario makes it hard to make a decision.
-
Correct.
Wow! And here I was thinking I forgot one.
Anyway, who is the only man to be trained in the ways of the Coda, and who trained him?
I have no idea what the Coda is, so I'm out of this one.

I would say that Wolverine would win any fight with Bats.
But I would agree that giving Bruce time to prepare would make it very tough for Logan. One problem here, though, Wolverine would gut The Joker ASAP if he was keeping him from learning about his past, so I don't think the scenario itself is plausible.
-
Because DC would never let Superman look second best at anything?
-
You're up.
-
Excluding Ilyana and Colussus, who would be a cheat answer anyway, name four victims of the Legacy Virus, including at least one villain.

What is Rick Jones' connection to the following list of characters?
Hulk
Avengers
Captain America
Captain Mar-Vell
Captain Marvel (Genis)
This may not be specific enough, so just let me know.
Hulk - He was the dumbass teenager who Banner ran onto the Gamma test field to save.
The Avengers - He was a mascot of sorts and ran a ham radio group of kids who were sort of like 'evil-doings' informers for the Avengers.
Captain America - For some reason I've never figured out, Jones was Cap's sidekick for awhile. A replacement for Bucky.
Captain Mar-Vell - This is the only one I'm shaky on. Rick Jones helped end the Kree-Skrull war, of which Mar-Vell was a major part. I don't know of any other direct connection because I wasn't a Mar-Vell fan.
Captain Marvel (Genis) - Rick Jones shared a body/place in the world or something with him. I don't know how to describe it. It was Jones communicating with Marvel, and the Nega-bands (?) being a way of switching one of them from the Negative Zone or something to the real world.
A hazy answer, but I felt so left out lately.

Hmm... penny arcadey....

Personally, I've always had a thing for The Taskmaster.
He can do any physical feat that he's ever seen. Think about that for five minutes and it will blow your mind. If you have the opportunity, pick up The Taskmaster mini-series from last year. It's quite cool. And ignore the Taskmaster guest appearances in the shit storm that was Agent X.

Shit, I know what happened and when and basically who did what, but I can't remember names! Damn!

I could go simple and just say Watchmen or something like that. But I'll go off a bit.
The last issue of Marvel's GI Joe (#154?)
I know the exact number i around 154, but it's the last issue of the series so it's not hard to discover. The actual issue, however, is harder to find. It's written by Larry Hama of course.
Plot
The basis of the story is that Wade, former Vietnam vet who was in the same LRRP unit as Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow and Stalker, his son is ready to apply for the army. The kid doesn't know anything about war because Wade won't talk about it. The son wants his dad to be a real hero, like Snake-Eyes, so Wade tells the kid to write to Snakes and tell him what real war is all about.
The majority of the story is Snake-Eyes' response. It's brutally honest about war and the army, and Vietnam in particular. It's emotional, it's raw, and easily one of the best single issues I've ever read. In-fucking-credible.
If you can find a copy, buy it immediately. The price has gone up substantially in the last few years, but it's worth it.

Yes, PA is the best shit ever. Bar none.

Can we just be generic and say that Midnighter is a complete satire of Batman?
-
Drubot, you're up.
-
Haha, yeah we must've been on at the same time.
Okya, let's stay with my favorite, GL, and see what we can do.
Okay, what Green Lantern Corps sector is Earth in, and who are the five GL's, in continuity, that have been recognized as protecting that sector?
-
Do you mean -
In brightest day, In blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight.
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power, Green Lantern's light.

I don't think you're lying, I just don't see those stars all working on the same movie. Especially this movie. Maybe I'm just a pessimist.
-
Whoomp, there it is.
-
I find it hard to believe any of this.
-
I only know his superhero name. Diamond right?You got that right, but there are three more names you need.
-
Dude, Yoda, if you don't know those guys, go to that website and enjoy.
I often go there and look at the ENTIRE archive. Penny Arcade rules all!!!!
-
Funny how apparently no one gives a shit about Captain Atom.
-
Green Arrow, baby! It's about f*ckin time!
Oliver Queen is everything I want to be in life. Well, aside from that whole cheating on his girlfriend a hundred times thing. And that dying thing. And the whole best friend losing his mind and killing God knows how many people thing. And the surrogate son becoming a junkie thing.
Aight, ya know what? Oliver's cool, but I don't want to be him.
-
Okay, thanks.
Let's stay Bendis. In Powers what was Walker's superhero name, and who were the other members of his Justice League-style team?
I only know his superhero name. Diamond right?

I'll say DD was crap. Or at least that it sucked. I saw it for the first time this weekend and it was bad. Really bad. Affleck was shite, to quote my British friends.
The only good parts of the movie were looking at Jennifer Gardner (but dear God not listening to her try and act intimidating), Colin Farrell as Bullseye, and maybe a little bit of the Kingpin.
