"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

It's the girl they create in "Weird Science."

Ah, now I get it. Been WAY too long.

I like Matt's idea, only because Sarah Conner in the 80s wasn't badass yet.

We have a winner!

Hell, I'd take Ash over Jack Burton (especially chainsaw-arm!Ash), though I do like Jack Burton a lot. I might even take MacReady.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Jack Burton would work a lot better with a group than Snake.

As opposed to Mr. Hyde? Or even Capt. Nemo? I was going with Alan Moore's dysfunctional group dynamics.

Eh, maybe he's just too Wolverine-ish for my taste. Plus, Big Trouble in Little China is one of my favorite movies.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

In retrospect, I think the problem with Snake is that the "Escape From ..." movies are set in the future, and the logic of the "League" is that the fictional characters all exist when they're set. (The exception being the stuff from Orwell's "1984" in "Black Dossier," which Moore took back to its original roots -- it was the publisher who wanted to push the story out a few deacdes into the future.)

I can't argue with that. At all. Though the music video was a crime against nature.

I can't argue with that either, which is why (subconsciously) I added MacReady. And, of course, Ash.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I think I'd replace all of them with characters from UK shows, personally.

My pedantic tag. It does not close.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Free Comic Book Day will include (among other titles) a re-issue of The Tick #1!
