"Wings on the feet are a trifle fey..."

Why didn't he just use the word "gay"? I mean, that's what he meant, right?

Because in our post-human post-liberal world, he's trying to signify non-standard and feminized masculinity through a coded substitute word.

"If I knew what that meant, I would kill you in an instant."

(When I was typing this I accidentally put "kikll", which is obviously the dolphin version.)

Also, he's a physicist. Therefore, fey.

I'm turning Marvel!

Odd that the Prince of Atlantis has watched the Little Mermaid, not having children of his own. Or does he? Is there a Princeling? I've lost touch with Namor since the days of Super-Villian Team-Up.

And why are the Prince and a world-reknowned scientist talking like Cordelia and Buffy?

Bruce has his cranky pants on, and Namor is always a little bitchy. Also, I imagine Namor's not familiar w/ Disney, but could be familiar w/ Hans Christian Andersen, and is most definitely familiar w/ the importantce of being called a little sea-girl. Also, the Giffen / DeMatteis MO is to accentuate the semi-obvious, but still-enjoyable ROFLs.

I've lost touch with Namor since the days of Super-Villian Team-Up.

That's a sentence I never thought I'd read. PLEASE NOTE that the fancy leather-vested Namor is BACK in New Thunderbolts.

Is Maguire inking himself? His art looks FANTASTIC - leagues better than the recent JL stuff!

What is the history of the Defenders?

― Huk-L, Thursday, 16 June 2005 14:27 (twenty years ago)

Tep to ILC!

Also, check out the first two results of this search right over hair.

What's the deal with that?
We've had more Rich Johnston sightings than Tep sightings in the last month. C'mon, Tep!

― Huk-L, Thursday, 16 June 2005 14:45 (twenty years ago)

Considering that the last post I saw from Tep before he vanished essentially said "Fuck you assholes" I wouldn't exactly hold my breath for his return.

But it was such a silly thing to get upset over! Wasn't it just that you liked something nobody else liked and you called us out on being snobs?

― Huk-L, Thursday, 16 June 2005 15:02 (twenty years ago)

RELIVE THE JOY!

Dan's kinda spinning things a bit - it wasn't so much Tep saying FU to anyone as it was Tep responding to Dan's kinda snide & somewhat defensive dismissal of my Ross-inspired crankiness w/ a bit more cussin' than the situation called for. And then Dan going off-base with his repsonse to Tep's response. But that's water under the bridge, I hope.

FWIW, I don't think Tep's absence has anything to do w/ that dopey "confrontation" as much as it has to do w/ Tep being busy doing his thing.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 16 June 2005 15:34 (twenty years ago)

Right, it was Ross, for some reason, I thought it had been Bart Sears what broke up our happy home.

― Huk-L, Thursday, 16 June 2005 15:37 (twenty years ago)

Nothing's broke up! Tep's gone AWOL before! I've gone AWOL before! You've gone AWOL before! The Eeeeeeewings have gome AWOL before! Matt Maxwell was gone for like 20 years! Vermont Girl, too! It's all love! And we have Rich Johnston now, too (if we link to his blog)! ILC! IT'S LIKE POGS, BUT FUN!

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 16 June 2005 15:39 (twenty years ago)

Oh, yeah - and there's always Dan and his Maggotry! Sorry, Dan! :)

If anyone brings up any more metaILC issues in non-meta threads, though, I'm going to spam y'all with GIFs from the Doom comic. And Cialkis ads.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 16 June 2005 15:42 (twenty years ago)

Cialkis looks like a shitty Ben Grimm.

― Huk-L, Thursday, 16 June 2005 15:55 (twenty years ago)

SHUT UP HUK!

Hahahaha now who's the one spinning things, Dave? Tep's reaction was outrageously and inappropriately hostile and came from nowhere and basically said to me "Shut the fuck up, you little bitch." I responded in kind. Tep can fuck right off and never come back as far as I'm concerned.

Fortunately this isn't my discussion group.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 16 June 2005 16:55 (twenty years ago)

See, that's why we need both of you. You guys are the Hulk and Namor of our little gang! The Beetle and Booster. The Lion and the Wardrobe.

― Huk-L, Thursday, 16 June 2005 17:21 (twenty years ago)

I liked that comic.

― Chuck_Tatum (Chuck_Tatum), Thursday, 16 June 2005 19:24 (twenty years ago)

What comic?
