RIP/

Wow! That's like a formal gown variation of her outfit.
I dig it.

Seems like a pain in the ass to walk though
And doing the kangaroo would look silly imo

But overall very nice indeed
came across it on dA i think, saved it and forgot to show you

Actually, that wouldn't be too hard to walk in. It's velvet and velvet's stretchy. She wouldn't be running, but it's loose enough around the bottom that she wouldn't have to waddle.

Haven't thought about that actually

There there, Marc. These are things you can only learn when forced to go dress shopping for x big-deal event.

Or, in my case, when forced to crossdress for x bid-deal events

but that never happened luckily

You never know. Things could change.

If so, I'd become the prettiest ******* princess on the face of earth, I guarantee you

Craziest? He's a schizophrenic with the power to create tangible illusions, and he once spent an entire comic book run running from himself.

But, if you mean most ridiculous thing, I'd have to go with turning New York City into Candy Land/

That actually sounds like a very interesting story.
Like a part of his psyche that formed its own consciousness and wants to see him dead.

Yeah, ridiculous would be more like it. When you take the time to learn what some of the characters actually do beyond just the movies you end up with some really over the top stunts.
How'd he manage that one?

That's a really accurate way to sum it up. And what makes it really fun-- especially during/after his Journey into Mystery run- is not knowing which of his 'friends' are actual people and which ones are just figments of his imagination that others can see.


Oh, yeah. Loki pulls the best pranks (see image). There was a story arc in the 90's where he adopts Deadpool, teaches him about the Fourth Wall (prior to this, Deadpool didn't break it) and makes him look like Tom Cruise when he betrays him so he'll be stuck with the paparazzi forever. Loki's basically Deadpool if Deadpool were a more serious-seeming, less murderous character. While DP breaks the Fourth Wall, Loki jumps over it, gets a pen and redraws it.
Pretty sure he just used magic to turn everything into ice cream, cookies, and sweets. The best part about Loki's pranks is how serious everyone takes them. Like 'holy **** , he's a pigeon! He's terrorizing the city!"

There's a lot of potential in that. If you can imagine somebody, couldn't you also imagine a long and drawn out history with them?
I can't imagine what I would do if somebody I thought I knew for 19 years was actually just made up in my head a couple of months ago.

I love that image, saw it on the front page a good while ago and it's comedy gold.
I didn't understand the Rocky one at first but then again I don't always remember Black Widow is Russian.

Comics are so great. Just from reading all this I'm motivated to start a collection, although I wouldn't have any idea where to begin.

He probably could, though I don't think any of his friendships have lasted long enough for that to be effective.

Me too~ Fury and the 3D glasses gets me every time.

I started with getting a 'jumping on point' trade-copy I prefer not to get the serialized issues that come out every month because they don't last as long and I like to read my comics over and over again. and getting the parts that went directly before and after it and building from there. It's also nice to get already-finished arcs or one-shots so you get both characters and a complete story. I usually go through the bargain bin at Books a Million because they have a great selection of stand-alone comics for under $5. If you'd like, I could give you a list of enjoyable one-shot runs and finished arcs that don't need a lot of prior reading to jump into.

That would be great, thanks! Anything that could be a good starting point I'm jotting down for future reference.

Will do.
I have to go get ready, but I will get back to you with a full list withing the day.

I really appreciate it. Go have a wonderful day~

Will do!
I have a little time before company arrives, so here are some good one-run, one-trade-copy stand-aloneish. There's always something that comes before or after, that's just not necessary reading. comics.
Marvel Vengeance
Doctor Doom vs Doctor Strange
Civil War
Secret Invasion

A protip for shopping for comics in person is looking at the spine. If there's no number, it's 9 times out of 10 a stand-alone story arc.

Finished story arc with numerous trade copies:
Journey into Mystery (aka the Kid Loki arc)
The Runaways
Young Avengers Vol 1 --> Avengers: Children's Crusade --> Young Avengers Vol 2

Good jumping-on points:
Deadpool: Dead Presidents
Ms. Marvel
Loki: Agent of Asgard

Non-Marvel Comics You Should Try (Pretty easy to hop into because they have don't have a bunch of history to catch up on.)
Fables
The Wicked + The Divine (ongoing)



I'll get back to you on with a more extensive list of titles and jumping on points later when I have a little more time. At the moment, I'm literally just glancing at my bookshelf and thinking 'huh, what would I loan someone without having to explain it?' so this list is a little lacking. I'll give you a full briefing later.

You're the best, Evil. I'll be sure to keep this in mind and keep the list handy.
You're pretty dedicated to your mascot to type all of this for a stranger.

No problem.
I love comic books and it's my honor and pleasure to help a fellow reader!

Thank you.

Is that---?!

Star Wars yes.

I didn't know Star Wars was popular in Japan that soon.

Well maybe Tezuka liked it or something.

Do you think he had a western fetish like Araki?

I know he had a fetish for humans transforming into animals and vice versa.

Shhh.
We don't talk about that.

It comes up in a BJ chapter or two.

Leave.

*leaf

Wow, that's pretty deep and makes a lot of sense, actually.

did you read the new chapter?

Not yet, no.

we get actual progress

its bretty gud you should check it

They say it in the PV

Yeah but I'm lazy

It's pronounced "Jo-s'kay".
Like "Sasuke Uchiha" from Naruto with a "Jo".

Thanks


Also thank you for reminding me that "Ey" and "Ay" make different sounds

That's not the plot twist.

**** , I'm ******* hooked now.

well so far the reading has shown takadick didn't kill her and his family.... but damn she dead

I haven't read the manga, but, if the anime got the first half of it right, there are going to be a lot of twists coming your way.

What are you some kinda not nerd who doesn't read the manga then watch the anime!?

I hate reading things online when I can avoid it, and I usually watch the anime first so that I can enjoy it without knowing how it taints the manga. If I like a series, I'll usually buy the manga. Love the feel of turning pages and, as someone who wants to go into the comic industry one day, I know how much of a difference a single purchase can make.

Well true, single purchases can make a huge difference and add up.

I for one buy the entire volume of my favorites because they meant something really good to me.

I do that when I can. It's really hard for me to purchase entire manga series, sadly, but I do follow comic books and buy the trade copies when they're released. The print job is spectacular.

Well ya, most the series I like aren't really long, but they are touching.

Like Alive: The Final Evolution its amazing

TN: 'muda' means 'useless'

I can't see your gif from my phone, so I can only assume yes.

That mental image is glorious.
