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

Payback in kind of what?

Wait, I thought you were talking about the panel where Wolverine gets a blue fist with claws through the chin? I just thought since he'd been skewering the danger room with his claws for years, it decided to give Logan the same treatment.

Did I misunderstand which panel you were looking at?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It was the final panel showing Wolvie, and the blue gloved fist was near his head and him lying prone. In the panel you're talking about is the fist gloved? Because the avatar's fist is always blue. If it's gloved there, at least it's consistent, even though I think it's pointless.

I didn't notice if it was gloved, but it's blue. Wolverine is getting an uppercut, but there are also claws that look like his going into his face. I'll have to check on the other panel when I get home.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

RE Astonishing: I laughed my ass off for a good 5 minutes when Colossus chucked Emma at the avatar.

I like Matt's idea that the battle , or at least parts of it, could have been a psychic projection from Xavier.

The whole thing couldn't have been, though, otherwise the S.W.O.R.D people couldn't have seen the "detruction" and talked about it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

This site looks pretty awesome.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ooooh! New Teen Titans today!!! I think I also have to pick up last week's comics, too.

Yeah, I do, b/c all y'all were talking about Astounishing and I haven't read it yet.

Hee. It was an enjoyable issue.

I finally doublechecked Astounishing. The fist in the penultimate Wolverine scene is the normal robot hand from the rest of the issue. The fist in the final scene is blue gloved and human appearing. I'm going to chalk it up as artist error and not meaningful.

"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

Maybe it's his tacky yellow and blue suit hitting the man when he's down?

Did anyone read the new Simone/Byrne Action Comics? I am so glad that for once JB is just drawing a title while letting someone who can actually write handle that task.

The development with Doctor Polaris was way more intriguing than anything I've seen with a villain in a Superman title recently. And you just know that if Byrne had written it the dialogue would have been stilted and twice as dense .
