Hey, everyone- check out Metamorpho's "trollface":


So the Justice League International is interviewing for new members in issue #24:
 
(Right-click & View Image on that shit so you can actually see to read it...)
-Classic stuff, right there.

I mean, comics used to be so damn charming... so character driven...
(Or center/wheel-click to embiggen)
-So much going on here: The great dynamic Sue and Ralph Dibny have, the classic nose joke/reference, Sue lusting over Captain Atom's hot bod (and hair, because let's be honest: It's spectacular), and the all but visual verification that Elongated Man uses is powers in the bedroom... to unforgettable effect. (Justice League Europe #2)


And then there was that one time The Justice Society pledged their allegiance to Hitler:
(America Vs. The Justice Society #1)

  1. that is one disturbing Joker looking smile from Metamorpho. and what's up with Power Girl? I've seen bull dykes in San Francisco that were more feminine then that clip art with PG. all that aside that was some pretty funny dialogue with those questions.

    1. Hey, now... watch it- that's Eisner Award nominee, Joe Shuster Award winner; Ty Templeton's art there! And Power Girl has had a few different looks through the years, this was during her more 'butch' phase. -Nothing wrong with that.
      I think a lot of it came from when she was significantly de-powered... she was overcompensating with her look and attitude, you know?

  2. and by the way in regards to Sue Dibny, if only we knew back then what DC would have in store for down the road.

    1. I know, right? Never could have thunk it back then... I actually really enjoyed Identity Crisis, and 52... I don't know why comic fans get such a stick up their butt about it. Well, I know WHY- but chill out. It's a story, it's all stories... and Identity Crisis was a really good one, I don't care what anybody says.

    2. well ya know people have been wanting comics to be more realistic. bad guys do some really fucked up shit sometimes that goes way beyond robbing banks or coming up with elaborate ways to kill superheroes.

  3. I have that issue! I got it in uni which meant I instantly identified with The Flash. Does The Elongated Man still use his twitchy nose? Is E.M. back in the DC52? Pass.

    A Nazi Spectre.... now there's a wicked Elseworlds waiting to be written!

    1. HA! Yeah, I could identify with The Flash too!
      Last I saw Elongated Man in DC he, and Sue, were ghosts at the end of 52... and yes, his nose was twitching! He's not in the DCnU as far as I know...

      The America Vs. The Justice Society miniseries was pretty sweet. It's a giant court-room drama. Batman is dead- and his diary is mailed to Clark Kent. In it Batman reveals they were all Nazi's and secretly working for Hitler all along! Clark HAS to go public with this- because of his own morals and whatnot- plus, why would Batman lie? Well- it turns out that... yeah, I'm not gonna spoil it. -But it was pretty fuckin' awesome. A lot of Golden-Age goodness in this one.

  4. Sholmo: Right? Funny shit King, especially the shit-eating grin Meme face of Metamorpho. Put the kids to bed 'cause that face is fucking scary! Better not be his O-Face;)

    So Sue used to lust after the Captain huh? I don't see how he could even compete with a dude w/elastic powers. Are you fucking kidding me? If he wasn't a super-hero, he'd be a fucking porn star. Can you imagine what kind of awesome/fucked up a porn staring anyone w/elastic powers would look like? Dayum!

    1. He can compete with his feathered-quiff! -That's how.
      But, seriously... that's how their marriage works so well. And why do you REALLY think Sue puts up with Reed, I mean- come on...
      Yes, the highly-anticipated Elongated-Man, Plastic Man, Mr. Fantastic three-way gay porn entitled Put It In Everywhere At Once From Across The Room is coming out soon! Northstar and Obsidian have already reserved their copies. ORDER NOW!!!
