My ad, sorry about that and Namor still sucks. Although he could kick Aquamans ass so he gets a check for that.

What's up with Aquapussy and Namor? All the other Atlanteans from their respective worlds have these underwater costumes that make sense for their culture, but Namor runs around in green undies and Arthur has a faggy orange shirt and green dancer leotards on. And these guys are the kings? Who the hell elected the queens of Atlantis to be king?

ALRIGHT... I'm gonna call Namor (Roman backwards!!) TONIGHT and tell him all you fuckers are saying bad shit about him.... he'll come up and break a winged foot off in EACH of your sorry, twotail ASSES, or is it not written "IMPERIUS REX"?????
FUCK.... the poor guy don't deserve THIS!!!

Why not pick on Spawn or mebbe LightRay of the New Gods for a change....
Or the Black Racer, Kirby's 2nd Silver Surfer.. if that guy didn't suck fucking ROCKS then I don't know who...

Dude, don't send Namor after me! I think he could pound Aquaman good. Uh, wait, that's not what I meant.

Though I believe he runs around in his drawers because he could make Nightcrawler jealous and likes to show off this fact.

I'm not saying Namor isn't the shizz, I'm just saying look at his duds, then look at what everybody else in Atlantis wears. Not the same. It's like if Dubya showed up for work every day in a mime costume or a pink tutu. Namor is IMPERIUS REX and he hangs out in skivvies. That's strange.

Aqua jerk on the other hand. Major dill. No way around it.

Spawn is a complete tool, but since I haven't read his book since like issue 30 ( and he wasn't in half of those...) I cannot ascertain the depths to which his toolnessness goes....

All the New Gods suck. Silver Surfer rip-offs, by definition, suck.

Yeah, I dig the different uniforms idea.. like the goddamned gungans, what the FUCK was up with that?? I'm sure there are tons of explanations which would make it look like genius, but the quick answer is FUCK THAT, the guy isn't even frmo the same species... what the fuck kinda message is that??? I thought that was WAY more racist than Jar Jar and his "jamaican" accent... FUCK.... I know a LOT of jamaicans, and every time someone tries to tell me that crap I think THEY are the racist... fuckin jamaicans don't sound ANYTHING like jar jar... jar jar talks in kiddie talk... or is the fucking COOKIE MONSTER a racist thing too???


Okay, sorry, this thread makes my blood boil, at least khumanitar changed the title.....

okay, sucky comic characters... shazam was pretty weak, to be sure... everything about that guy was like some kind of attempt to show how unlike superman he was.... DIDN'T WORK... he WAS the same as superman, only different colours... and the "sources" for all his powers are so dumb... many of the names mentioned in SHAZAM (the acronym) would cancel each other out, or at least existed in completely different societies, some as the same thing (did that make any sense?? I hope so, cos shazam sucks so hard I don't wanna explain further)
Wisdom of Solomon???? wasn't he a kind of hard-ass??? not so much super wise as he was decisive, I always thought....
Sorry for the rant, I'm going downtown to the Wine festival to blow off some steam and argue with someone in real life (they dropped "Grape" from it, so it works better here!!)

How long is Billy Batson going to be 10 years old anyway? I just read Kingdom Come and I thought that his heroic sacrifice at the end was a bit meh. Like if Batman, Superman, or Wonder Woman had thrown in the towel, everybody would have been shocked. "Whoa! Cool storyline!" but Captain Marvel? Who cares? Captain Marvel Should Meet Captain Marvel in a DC/Marvel crossover.

I think the entire cast of Image characters ever created, Shadowhawk, Wetworks, Cyberforce, Deathstryke, Brigade, Youngblood, Team Youngblood, Supreme,BADROCK etc, etc, etc with the exception of WildCATS and Fuji from Stormwatch (what a cool looking character) sucked big donkey balls.

Gads, some of those Youngblood assholes were shitty characters...

Savage Dragon? I know Larsen said its a spoofy wink wink homage to Super Hero cliches, but it's actually him just recycling bad stories with out any of the glib insight. Yuck.

Shadowhawk? He's black! GASP!! He has AIDS!! DOUBLE GASP!!! He..he died!!!!! (Thank the maker.....) Remember when they were trying to make a big deal out of NOBODY knowing his secret identity, including the readers ( and I believe Jim Valentino was equally clueless) and when they revealed it, they were like "it's been a year! The wait is over..." Yeah, but it had only been three issues!!! Way to generate suspense ya late soliciting dumb fucks!

Image sucked so bad with getting books out ontime. I remember flipping through the order books (Advance; the previews for Capital Comics, which was Diamond rival at the time, but Marvel bought them and sucked them into bankruptcy, the stupid turds) Anyway, every other page had an ad that said "[Image Book] will not be solicited this month because it's NOT ready. We will not solicit late books. It's the Image pledge to our readers." What kinda of fucking company has to have a pledge to NOT solicit late books? Instead why didn't they have a fucking pledge to whip their lazy artists on the asses and get the fucking books out on time in the first place?

Reed Richards is a big candy ass and doesn't deserve his hottie wife (who has lame powers, why don't you just call it what it is, she's a telekinetic....). Ben Grimm is the shizz though.

dude, savage dragon kicks ass like a big green ninja!

everything else from the image "founders" (of which only one remains on the original book, or drawing AT ALL) sucked BIG TIME... wildCATs - covert action teams... hmmmm, so when they call in their "operatives" for the first time, they send huge flying ships around to pick them up... REALLY covert, there guys... worthy of ninja status.

cyberforce - i got an idea... lets make a team of mutants, but they all have cyborg parts... that's SOOOOOO different!

i wont' even go into anything liefeld has created. it all sucks. end of story.

inconsistency of books being on time was a major problem, though today most of the books are on time and of better quality work.

and savage dragon was almost never late. issue #111 comes out this wed, and i've been reading it since the first mini-series...

How about Wetworks? Everyone had symbiotes (read: Venom knockoff), and it was supposed to be a big surprise in the second or third issue. The only problem: the book was so hyped and so incredibly late that everyone knew about the symbiotes well in advance. Well, that and it just sucked.

What was Rob Liefeld's crowning shame? Archer (was that his name?), maybe? Take his "creation" Shatterstar from X-Force and give him a bow and arrow. Hawkeye and Green Arrow weren't exactly shaking in their bellbottoms (which this guy also had--how friggin' ripped off can you be)?

Or maybe it was Troll? A short, completely uninteresting piece of crap who looked just like Wolverine, except with the crucial change of hair color.

Rob Liefeld sucked so bad, Todd McFarlane retroactively changed Spawn's origin to remove Chapel from it. Now that's a slap in the nuts.

That is, but well deserved. Todd McF put a lot behind old Liefeld, and all he did was fucking suck. Chicks with big tits, and guys with big guns - and none of it looking at all real. Fuck Liefeld, and fuck Marvel for giving Liefeld Captain America during Onslaught - and for taking it away from Waid and Garney to do it. Now that's tooldom, folks. Right there. SPeaking of Liefeld - both Cable (his creations) and that idiot Nathan Summers (X-Man) should fuck and cancel out their powers like Cloak and Dagger did in my Marvel Max one shot. Stupidity knows no bounds.

Did you see the Cable/Deadpool book being put out by Marvel this winter? Leifeld is doing the covers, but they won't let him touch the interiors. Heh. Marvel slaps Rob in the nuts.

Troll sucked way worse than the archer (Shaft? maybe?) guy. Especially when Rob got too lazy even to draw his face and stuffed his head in that metal helmet which was a direct rip off of the Thing's helmet when his face got wrecked. Another thing Rob was too lazy to draw was feet. Eventually all his characters stood on pointy footless legs, or they were standing in fog, no matter the geographic location of the story..If there was ever a man who deserved to get his ass kicked by ninjas, it's Rob"501 jeans" Leifeld.

Believe me, any slap in the nuts Liefeld gets is deserved. He's the only person I want to suckerpunch more than that Paige bitch from Trading Spaces.

Even before he stopped drawing feet, they merely had triangles. Liefeld feet were a patented suck.

I thought Cable had far more potential than the average Liefeld creation, but apparently he no longer exists. He's been replaced by the gay Matrix knockoff called Soldier X. No idea how that happened (aside from Quesada gathering everyone around and saying, "Hey, I know how we can really piss Liefeld off!").
