You know when there is a cool image on a comic cover, and then that scene actually never happens in the story?? Amirite?? 😎😁Well Art Adams gave us the iconic shot on the cover and then YES the same moment from another angle in the story. Iconic She-Hulk & Longshot moment☮️👍✨
i think i was late to this joke by a longshot but w/e
This elephant was hung up in the cafe I used to work at. Everyone said it looked sad and I was fond of claiming it looked like a god of death. (It was displayed without credit and nobody really knew where it came from, so if by a longshot anybody knows--do tell!)
I'm going for the longshot! Introducing Penguinja, my #ConceptRoyaleContest entry! He's ready for a fight, and it won't be very n-ice!
Traditional MMO with a subscription cost? Absolutely was my first. First MMO overall? Not by a longshot.
MapleStory gets to lay claim to that title. XD https://t.co/Li7tZhWJA6
...a straightforward answer–again in line with its broader message, does the morality of intention matter in the face of its impact?
The two heroes spring their surprise attack on Mojo, whose sense of singular importance assumes that Longshot has arrived with an army, as no...
...none are as wildly crazed and narcissistic as he. If last issue identified Longshot as something of a Messiah for his people–the Mojo is an Antichrist among ours.
With his selfishness resolved after last issue's awakening, Longshot has rebounded to the opposite end, taking...
...I purely enjoyed this series and all of what it had to say.
Nocenti is often the unsung hero of Claremont's Run–her time as line editor and Claremont's confidant underplayed in favor of putting attention toward Chris's work–but the Longshot series really highlights her...
...creator. Arize's ideology functions as a great counterpoint to Mojo's–whereas the former has made the world beautiful around him, Mojo sees beauty only in himself.
My takeaway, as Longshot finds himself overwhelmed with the beauty around him, is that Nocenti is suggesting...
...trapped in Longshot's orbit.
It's only appropriate that a series as obsessed with motives as this is makes the case of the road to Rome, with Longshot learning of the consequences of his actions.
More and more each issue, Longshot is awakening to not only his identity...
...who trips over a murdered guard and smashes his face and teeth.
Pup reappears and reminds Longshot to look over his shoulder sometimes before pulling Jinx from the latest brawl between Longshot and his demons.
Their desire, simply to return home, makes their morality far...
...questioning the nature of his existence, and in dismay asks Jinx how "we" were created.
His worries of being patterned after his creators are unintentionally confirmed by Jinx, who quoting scripture, informs Longshot that "we're made in his image". Longshot's developing...
The theme of purity of intention is also revisited in Longshot #3 as Longshot and his unlucky companion Jinx prepare to break into the ConEd plant to steal their latest haul of diamonds.
(As someone who has given ConEd my money, I am furious to learn of their diamond hoard.)
...same sense of purpose in the series third installment. It's not that the book doesn't have a lot to say; it just doesn't do it with the same grace & deliberate intention shown throughout its first issues.
Longshot #3 opens with a grim title–"Just Let Me Die"–and introduces...
...Hitch's stunt poses to his life and the man falls from the sky. The director's first concern, naturally, is to continue filming–surely there's cinematic use for the man's injury–as Longshot crashes into the ground just outside the dangerous set pieces.
If fame is corrupting, then it would certainly undermine the purity of Longshot's intention, which another inserted flashback reveals as an implanted mandate for his abilities.
Without luck on his side (or honed skill like Rita's), Longshot is bested by the actual threat that...
...supercharges him doesn't go unnoticed.
The first issue of Longshot introduced the limitations of Longshot's probability altering capacity, which again come into play as Longshot begins to feel his luck slip away ahead of Hitch's "million dollar stunt".
...to the efforts leading lady Kimberly Price forces herself through for the sake of continued relevance–she's no further options but to exploit herself.
It quite the literalization of this theme, Longshot's recall of a forgotten memory sees him fighting for his life, losing...
...of the ferocious band's leader.
Longshot's purity–and maybe even the faith Hester has in him–helps the man accomplish his mission, saving the baby from Gog and the sorceress Spiral.
The joy of success leaves Hester almost euphoric, declaring her love for the world and its...
