#comics everybody!

Concept: a superhero team where all of the members nominally have the same power, invisibility, but each of them has a completely different pseudoscience rationale for how their power works, which lets them get away with different bullshit exploits. Like, one of them actually turns transparent to visible light, another projects a psychic “somebody else’s problem” field, a third partially phases into the Ghost Dimension, and so forth.

So over in the comments of my dreamwidth, tripoli mentioned that there is a comic where Nightwing teams up with Magilla Gorilla to clear Magilla's name after he's framed for murder. If you remember Magilla Gorilla, you know how wacky that entire sentence is. If you don't know who Magilla Gorilla is, I don't know how you can make sense of anything in this paragraph. (I don't know how ANYONE can make sense of the rest of this entry, but it is a real thing that I read and am now sharing with you.) But I will tell you this, I mentioned it to @thatgirlnevershutsup and she sent me a copy of the comic and it is as hilariously AMAZING as you might expect.

SPOILERS below the cut, but trust me, you want to read them because they are hilarious.

GRAPE APE also appears, as Magilla's ungrateful protege! Magilla has a junkie sister! He is a SERIOUS ACTOR. Mr. Peebles is his agent, who gets murdered. RIP Mr. Peebles. The reason Dick is in Hollywood is to meet with Mr. Peebles re: making a movie out of his life story, with Magilla playing John Grayson. In the end, the movie is made, with GRAPE APE playing young Dick. MAGILLA WINS AN OSCAR FOR THIS. I AM NOT EVEN KIDDING YOU. The amount of sheer batshit wtfery cannot be overstated. I say again, it is AMAZING.

Comics: At least one writer has done something repulsive with every character

“How can you still like Harley Quinn when in one of the terrible New 52 comics she blew up a bus of children?!”

“Louis Lane was portrayed as a pedophile multiple times in the Silver Age as a joke.”

Some characters still just suck though

Do you think the only reason Magneto never gives Xavier what-for about lusting after his students is that Xavier will bring up the time Magneto put Scarlet Witch in a princess slave leia style outfit before knowing she was his daughter?
