Wait, I just wikied that last one and I guess I'm wrong.

Oilyrags, Thursday, 1 May 2008 12:54 (seventeen years ago)

As far as I know, Martha and Thomas Wayne haven't clawed their way out of the grave either.

Oilyrags, Thursday, 1 May 2008 12:55 (seventeen years ago)

But here's the new Flash, same as the old Flash.

WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN!

Mr. & Mrs. Wayne returning would be kind of hilarious. "Oh. Guess I'm done here!" sez Bruce.

That, or he'd be all, "Look what I've been doing in memory of you!" And they'd be all hyper-critical and Batman would become really self-conscious and awkward. Which kinda relates to my theory that orphaned heroes are bigger badasses because they don't have as many daddy issues, etc.

man, how awesome would it be if that was the plot of Batman RIP?

Oilyrags, Thursday, 1 May 2008 16:43 (seventeen years ago)

No Chubby da Choona.

But there's still time...

Don't forget Flash's 70s JLA buddies the Greens (originally Greenbaum), Lantern and Arrow.

"Who am I? I'm the goddamn Batman."

"Watch your mouth, boy, or I'll wash it out with SOAP!"

Slightly speaking of which, the print version of this story included a beautiful panel of Superman socking it, non-Aryan style, to Hitler.

SCAN! SCAN! SCAN!

Oh yeah, that one. Classic indeed.

Thunderbird from the seventies X-Men has stayed dead, hasn't he? Probably the only X-Men who has died and never come back.

Tuomas, Saturday, 3 May 2008 08:54 (seventeen years ago)

yeah, there's not much reason to being him back, as Claremont and Cockrum must have realized that Wolverine filled the "pissed-off" post, and so he had no other function other than to be killed off…

I wonder if, say, Wolverine got the axe instead, then T-Bird would have become Marvel's most significant breakout character of the past thirty years…

No claws! No massive popularity!

Mr. Perpetua, Saturday, 3 May 2008 23:07 (seventeen years ago)

Also Warpath's still around right? I think I remember them being related or something, but it's been about 15 years since I read X-Force 4 or whatever it was

Niles Caulder, Tuesday, 6 May 2008 13:15 (seventeen years ago)

four months pass...

Found it!

Some damn thing (Oilyrags), Monday, 15 September 2008 15:08 (seventeen years ago)

Thunderbird or somebody dressed just like him is in the SI: X-Men miniseries.

Radiant Flowering Crab (Rock Hardy), Monday, 15 September 2008 16:03 (seventeen years ago)

Uh...maybe Warpath?

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 17 September 2008 04:35 (seventeen years ago)

Could be, I haven't followed X-books in many, many years.

Radiant Flowering Crab (Rock Hardy), Wednesday, 17 September 2008 13:33 (seventeen years ago)

Warpath has been an active member of the X-Men (and X-Force) for the past few years. He wears a similar costume to Thunderbird, who is NOT back from the dead.

Dr. Perpetua, Wednesday, 17 September 2008 19:48 (seventeen years ago)

Warpath is Thunderbird's younger brother. He showed up in the original New Mutants run and was a founding member of X-Force.
