1. she tells superman that she wanted a marketable symbol on her chest like him but can't because - boo hoo - she can't remember her stupid origin. so she decides to leave a gaping hole in her costume until she can think of symbol to sew into it.

2. That recent HULK issue where Nightmare reveals that the PH34R of 9/11 has given him extra bonus superpowers!

Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 August 2005 13:52 (twenty years ago)

I just bought DC's Imaginary Stories whiz bang.

Huk-L (Huk-L), Thursday, 18 August 2005 13:59 (twenty years ago)

Now, see, #2 didn't seem so bad mid-stream, but yanked out of the story's context, UNGH.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:01 (twenty years ago)

3. Insert all Chuck Austen / JD Finn asshattery right mofuggin' here (cf. Pissman, Sodom & Gommorah, that dopey nurse, etc)

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:02 (twenty years ago)

4. that bit in Green Lantern: Rebirth where Hal explains that John Stewart builds his energy constructs methodically, because he is an architect, and Kyle creates his constructs artistically, because he is an artist, and Guy spunks them out of his c0ck because he is a wanker. or something.

Mark C (Markco), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:02 (twenty years ago)

David I think you need to fully explain some of those, the one about Nightcrawler's demon father wanting to make Wolverine the Pope or something would do nicely.

Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:06 (twenty years ago)

5. The part where they explain why Jason Todd is alive.

Huk-L (Huk-L), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:07 (twenty years ago)

6. that bit in Peter Parker: Spider-Man where, after being infected by some fly-by-night super-villainess (w/ a kiss!), Spidey - dry-heaving, cold-sweating, transmogrifying - gets dragged by MJ to a friend's wedding because, um, she's a inconsiderate twunt and doesn't want them to reneg on their RSVP.

7. tiny footprints in the brane!!!

Mark C (Markco), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:11 (twenty years ago)

BECAUSE TOM DEMANDED IT!

3a. that bit in Uncanny X-Men where the Church of Humanity wanted to take over the world or buy a RoboSapien on the cheap by:

- installing Nightcrawler (disguised via his Image Inducer) as Pope
- reveal the Pope to be A BLUE-TAILED DEVIL (by turning off his Image Inducer) and blow the roof off of organized religion everywhere oh SNAP
- simulating the Rapture / Beatlemania during this OMG revelation by using communion wafers that KILL PEOPLE DEAD

3b. that bit in Uncanny X-Men where Iceman was shattered asunder, and created a new body for hisself using HAVOK'S URINE.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:14 (twenty years ago)

3c. that bit in Uncanny X-Men where the sorta-reformed Juggernaut, awaiting trial in Canada for messing w/ Alpha Flight in a previous story, gets to putter around Toronto on his own recognizance AND gets in his counsel's panties at story's end. PS - HIS COUNSEL IS SHE-HULK.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:19 (twenty years ago)

3d. that bit in Action Comics where Superman gets his underwear handed to him by a husband-wife teams whose powers involve the holding of hands (shades of Aurora / Northstar!) and TURNING THINGS INTO SALT.

8. that bit in Amazing Spider-Man a long while back where Peter Parker's parents came back from the dead, but they were actually androids made TO KILL HIM, and the Vulture got some exoskeleton that sucked the life out of people and turned him into a younger Hume Cronyn, and his faux-parents gave their lives so their faux-son could live.

It's like someone looked at Fenris and said, "Oh, I can make that concept REALLY suck..."

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:24 (twenty years ago)

The X-Men annual where Wolverine is vaporized, but using his super healing factor regenerates himself from one drop of blood. Including his adamantium skeleton.

Douglas (Douglas), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:26 (twenty years ago)

Condiment Twin powers activate!

9. the bit in X-Men when Psylocke suddenly turned from a posh, armour clad English bird into a sultry japanese sex ninja, for no reason.

Mark C (Markco), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:27 (twenty years ago)

10. that recent bit from Amazing Spider-Man where it was revealed that Gwen Stacy actually had two kids because she boffed Norman Osborne in a moment of weakness - in case you're wondering, she popped them out while in Europe, because that's what you do when you inadvertently do it w/ the father of your sorta-boyfriend's best-friend's father (who happens to be the head of a super-huge corporation). And the two kids got dad's super-messed-up genes in them, which made them age quickly and gave them super-strength and tweaked their branes something harsh. And Osborne's master plan was to make his kids think that Spidey was their pop and that he (Spidey) was to blame for mom's death and that they would hunt down poor old Spidey and open a can of whup-ass. And, yes, a secret stash of Goblin gear was involved. Oh - and the girl kid was the spitting image of Gwen Stacy, which, you know, Caused Problems.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:30 (twenty years ago)

3e. the bit in Uncanny X-Men where Angel developed healing powers; to be more specific, IIRC, his BLOOD heals, so the guy has to CUT himself in order to save other people (oh the pathos); said power was discovered in the midst of some dopey skirmish with werewolves, wherein Angel managed to lay the funny sexy Vince Vaughn vibe on Husk, a girl that's probably 20 years his junior.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:37 (twenty years ago)

11. The issue of Mutant X where the United States is waging war with Canada, so Captain America hulks out and starts throwing energy bolts at Havok. Bystanders are protected from the ensuing fight by Iceman's walls of ice. Not so lucky is the moon, which is inadvertantly destroyed. Later, Dracula bites Havok.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:39 (twenty years ago)

11. Nightwing fools Lex Luthor and Deathstroke the Terminator by changing the color of his costume!

Huk-L (Huk-L), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:41 (twenty years ago)

Actually, now that I type it up like that, it sounds awesome.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:41 (twenty years ago)

12. The LOSH discover a doomsday device that OMG could destroy the entire universe - so they feed it to Matter Eater Lad.

Mark C (Markco), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:45 (twenty years ago)

Actually, to vaguely defend the X-plot point Douglas skewered- I thought the deal was a drop of Wolverine's blood landed on some fancy all-powerful dream stone thing that allowed his body to be reconstituted, skeleton and all.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:46 (twenty years ago)

Also, in light of Andrew's post re: Mutant X, I realize Howard Mackie is one of the patron saints of this thread.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:48 (twenty years ago)

And, yes, I am suggesting that Wolverine came back from the dead BY ADDING WATER.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:54 (twenty years ago)

3e. DINO-RACHEL ATTACKS!!

Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:54 (twenty years ago)

(I am interested in supremely lame twists, absurd and convoluted plots, villainous schemes which defy all sense, and also of course grotesquely fumbled references to real-world issues. I suspect Roy Thomas' grapplings with race and gender may be fruitful areas of study here.)

Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:57 (twenty years ago)

Howard Mackie totally pwns this thread, I just can't think of any of his plots right now.

The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:57 (twenty years ago)

Jordan, Dino-Rachel was CLAREMONT!

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 14:57 (twenty years ago)

ROY THOMAS!

13. that bit in Avengers where The Enchantress, disguised as The Valkyrie, actually gets the female Avengers to turn on their male oppressors via some sub-Steinemian hoo-hah about equal rights and bras and, um, oppression. And, of course, the guys don't help (stupid pigs). But then The Enchantress goes too far, or the girls wise up, or something happens and the plan goes to pffft. And they all end up in Vermont, for whatever reason.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:00 (twenty years ago)

are they running an inn?

Huk-L (Huk-L), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:01 (twenty years ago)

Someone was!

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:01 (twenty years ago)

Peter Scolari is Captain America!

Huk-L (Huk-L), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:05 (twenty years ago)

Jordan, Dino-Rachel was CLAREMONT!

Haha, how could I have forgotten! All those bad nu-X-books blur together. Make that number 14, then.

Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:09 (twenty years ago)

(A separate thread for plots which sound stupid but are in fact GENIUS might have to be started too.) (Yes CAP ON DRUGS I am talking about you)

Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:11 (twenty years ago)

grotesquely fumbled references to real-world issues

New Thunderbolts are trapped inside a burning collapsing United Nations building OMG Do You See? Some of them go out and get help from Spiderman, who constructs a tight network of webs to keep the building upright - but it starts to fall in the other direction! Uh Oh! Inside, the lady Thunderbolt collapses, which causes the growing bigger Thunderbolt to push his powers further and further, until just when the building is about to fall, he grows to the size of it, and punches his arm out through the side, to grab the roof from the outside. And so the building stays up, because buildings work exactly like that.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:15 (twenty years ago)

Warning: I will fill that other thread with Morrison JLA plots until it bursts.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:15 (twenty years ago)

Er, that new Thunderbolts thing is number 14 in the list. To be honest it was more annoying because it had a certain amount of tension about how being in a collapsing burning building really sucks, and then just completely lost it.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 18 August 2005 15:19 (twenty years ago)

(boo to Andrew!) (even if he's probably right)

Howard Mackie may rule this, but Geoff Johns is surely working hard to top him. GL Rebirth is filled with stuff like that...The explanation for the white streaks in Hal Jordan's hair was the very definition of LAME.

(His hair got white because Parallax had entered his body. Parallax is some kind of essence of cosmic fear or something like that, and what does happen to your hair when you are afraid? Huh? Get it? Geoff is such a smart guy!)

iodine (iodine), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:00 (twenty years ago)

Really, though, his hair should have turned YELLOW.

Huk-L (Huk-L), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:01 (twenty years ago)

16. Captain America #160. Solarr gets heat-blast-out-the-hands powers BECAUSE HE WAS OUT IN THE DESERT AND GOT REAL HOT.

Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:13 (twenty years ago)

In Fantastic Four #2. The FF fool the Skrull armada into leaving Earth alone by showing them loads of Kirbymonsters cut out of Strange Tales and saying "yeah check out our defenses".

(This is not actually as stupid as it seems cos so many of those monsters are in continuity now!)

Tom (Groke), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:14 (twenty years ago)

The Avengers in The Crossing: Wasp gets turned into…a wasp!

I assume we're hailing MODAM as a work of genius, yes?

How about the issue of West Coast Avengers (#56) with Wonder-Man getting an implied blowjob from Wanda…?

Chuck Austen's Uncanny X-Men story 'The Draco', which had a character called Azazel trapped in an alternate dimension. To transport himself back home, he had sex with lots of mutant teleporters. On earth. Which he got to by teleporting there. Um…in the words of Paul O'Brien, patron saint of Bad X-Comics:

WELL, IF HE CAN TRAVEL TO EARTH TO BREED WITH THE WOMEN, WHAT DOES HE NEED THE FUCKING PORTAL FOR?

carson dial (carson dial), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:40 (twenty years ago)

17. OH GOD THE SCARLET WITCH HUMMER! She goes dooooop for whatever reason - had to do w/ the kids and Master Pandemonium, didn't it? - and, in typical Byrne fashion, turns into an EVIL SLUT. And the unkindest cut of all: while going down on her paramour, she SCRATCHES HIS CHEST WITH HER MAGIC FINGERNAILS. And, of course, Wonder Mang goes NOOOOOOOOOOOO! as Wanda tends to his ionic boner.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:50 (twenty years ago)

18. Byrne strikes again! Poor Sue Richards (due to sublimated rage after a miscarriage, and, um, just because she's a girl in a man's world) gets manipulated by the 35th Hate-Mongererer and, by proxy, the PSYCHO-MAN (miniature green-suited dorkwit) into becoming MALICE, a leather-clad EVIL SLUT that totally bones the FF by (of course) tapping the true potential of her powers, previously left untapped because she's a pansy girl. And, of course, after dealing with a buttload of humiliating nonsense (both in the Real World and Psycho-Man's Dirty Apolcalyptic Mini-World), she snaps out of it, sticks it to the Psycho-Man but good and becomes ... THE INVISIBLE WOMAN! She could've just, um, y'know, realized that a grown woman shouldn't call herself THE INVISIBLE GIRL and make the namechange w/out the drama, but that sort of stuff don't sell.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:59 (twenty years ago)

I fear most of my posts are just causing INFINITE CROSSOVER CRISES w/ previous OMG list threads.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 17:00 (twenty years ago)

19. that West Coast Avengers bit during some 7-part time-travel arc wherein the non-traveling Dr. Henry Pym, coming to grips w/ his effed up life and the multiple identities he's taken on, talks to and makes out w/ Firebird, and becomes ... DOCTOR PYM, super-science-man what shrinks guns and gadgets to whip out at convenient times against Scorpio or the Phantom Rider.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 18 August 2005 17:08 (twenty years ago)

Actually, fuck, that belongs on the GOOD stupid thread, next to CAP ON DRUGS, CAPWOLF, and LIL CAP.

jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 18 August 2005 17:14 (twenty years ago)

20. In "The Flash" all the Rogues team up and encase the city in a magic invisible bubble for no apparent reason other than to run around and break windows or some such but then OMG an evil computer takes over the city on the same day. What are the chances of that happening? so the Flash destroys evil compuiter by thinking at super speed and goes to beat up all the other Rogues but then takes a few seconds out of the fight to build a giant suspension bridge from scratch with his bare hands.

Mark C (Markco), Thursday, 18 August 2005 20:28 (twenty years ago)

Hank Pym the human dildo.

Oh no, you read that right.

C'mon man, where's the love for Tom DeFalco and Paul Ryan?????? Nowhere?????

Well, don't look at here either. My dad bought a paperback with the whole Psi-Lord/Franklin Richards affaire eight or nine years ago so I could have some "fun" during a post-amygdala surgery convalescence. Oh, the suffering.

I'm Hi, Jared Fogle (ex machina), Friday, 19 August 2005 21:47 (twenty years ago)

21. The X4 Miniseries, where the Fantastic Four first show up at the mansion and fight the X-Men for absolutely no reason, and then convince them to fly them to a space station on the Blackbird because... the F4 have no plane of their own? I don't know. They say that no one with energy emitting powers can go, and then pick Gambit for the mission. Then by amazing coincidence exactly four X-Men are irradiated and given the powers of the Fantastic Four. This means that Wolverine gets powers of Mr. Fantastic, complete with stretchy adamantium. Oh, and they also introduce some Captain Planet-esque "Earth, Water, Wind, Fire" elemental analogy, wherein Wolverine represents water because if you melt adamantium it turns into liquid. Yeah. Then they all fight the Brood and it occurs to them that they could have used Cerebro instead of going into space in the first place, the end.

Wow that X4 plot sounds like something a little kid would come up with while playing with action figures.

Matthew C Perpetua (inca), Saturday, 20 August 2005 10:34 (twenty years ago)

The four elements thing also turned up in 1602 and Ultimate Fantastic Four, in fairness.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Saturday, 20 August 2005 12:09 (twenty years ago)

There is nothing fair about the X4 Miniseries.

Laura H. (laurah), Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:20 (twenty years ago)

Wow that X4 plot sounds like something a little kid would come up with while playing with action figures.

I'm almost certain that's the method used by Jeph Loeb for writing Batman/Superman.

"...and then and then and then Batman and Superman have to fight EVERY SINGLE VILLIAN AT ONCE! WHEEE! And then THE JLA FLY IN AND HAVE A BIG FIGHT WITH ALL THE BAD GUYS! POW! THWACK! And then, er, they... RIDE AROUND IN MECHS! YEAH! etc, etc."

Now Loeb has now gone to Marvel, presumably we can expect similar nonsense except with the FF, X-Men, etc?

Philip Alderman (Phil A), Saturday, 20 August 2005 20:17 (twenty years ago)

22. The ending of Rising Stars, where all the "specials" are killed and their "magic extraterrestrial energy" is released touching everyone on earth and making them realize that they can be better!. So humanity has a change of earth overnight, stops the wars and begins building a new world! (which will probably endure until the kids of these people grow up).

Amadeo, Saturday, 20 August 2005 21:51 (twenty years ago)

My brother bought "Comics Creators Talk About The Fantastic Four" this weekend, it is a series of interviews with FF luminaries right through from the earliest days. Paul Ryan gets asked about the Tom DeFalco years, interestingly enough his interviewer is... Tom DeFalco. Leading to questions such as:

In the next issue, there was another new villain, Devos The Devastator, and then Dreadface in the issue after that. Were you happy with my back-to-basics approach?

Ryan apparently feels that the dynamics between him and DeFalco were very similar to Stan and Jack's, except perhaps for that strange X Factor that led Stan and Jack to create Doctor Doom and Galactus and Tom and Paul to create Paibok the Power Skrull. The only time these two titans of brush and pen disagree is over the storyline which required Johnny's wife to give birth to an egg.

Tom (Groke), Saturday, 20 August 2005 22:26 (twenty years ago)

(Paul Ryan thinks the egg should have hatched, Tom DeFalco disagrees, as this would have forced Johnny Storm to mature.)

Tom (Groke), Saturday, 20 August 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

Sadly they do not interview Steve Englehart about his run featuring Fasaud The Living Television.

Tom (Groke), Saturday, 20 August 2005 22:29 (twenty years ago)

That'd be because SE had some issues w/ what Marvel wanted from him during that run (which, IIRC, primarily featured an FF comprised of The Thing, Ms. Marvel AS Ms. Thing, Crystal, and Johnny The Would-Be Rooster).

David R. (popshots75`), Saturday, 20 August 2005 23:48 (twenty years ago)

It also featured a return of the Beyonder, and Mantis, because you need Mantis.

He's been saying since 1990 that they wanted it to be a three-volume slipcased hardcover, you've had time to get used to the idea that this will cost! (and if it had kept coming out a chapter at a time, the seralised version would have cost US$448.50 by now)

Most expensive porn ever.

Hardly more expensive than the average Taschen book, is it? (NB Taschen should SO TOTALLY do a European edition!)
