"You dented it! You dented the invisible force field that is invisible and therefore I cannot see to tell if it has a dent in it!"
I have read Adventureman #1 twice now and I think this might be my new favourite thing.
I need to make some extra moneys so I can start getting commissions of the Baroness Bizarre, because look! The arms! The sword! The hat! The horns! I love it.
Reed, of course, overcomes Doom by inventing his own version of the machine and out-thinking Doom's "rigid and predictable" strategies by growing new structures, exploring new possibilities and connections.
Read Fantastic Four 1234 this weekend.
Grant Morrison's DC work is obviously greater, in both senses of the word, but I think it's interesting that he's able to hit on a lot of his themes and deliver a near-evergreen FF story in just 4 issues.
Nate seemingly dies in the process, not to return for many years.
It feels like a metaphor. An analog for the 1st/most well-known superhero has infected everyone, and only by exposing them to something new can the infection be broken.
I still wonder if there's an Ellis influence on the final issue of X-Man.
It features a Superman parody, teased a few issues earlier, but in this version, the alien infects the minds of everyone on Earth, and Nate Grey has to spread his consciousness across everyone to remove it.
Ellis leaves and Steven Grant handles the last few issues as sole writer and immediately does an Authority pastiche and idk if it was supposed to be a tribute or a joke or was always part of the plan but it's pretty funny
only late 90s comics fans will understand the pain of running head first into this fuckin war on drugs propaganda in the middle of your comic
