Episode 80: Me Ka-Zar, You Jean

One thought on “Episode 80: Me Ka-Zar, You Jean”

1. X-Men #10: Another interesting example of finally seeing the first appearance of a character I’ve known about, and boy, “Not Tarzan” sure has been changed since then. We’ll see how fast things evolve to what we know today.

   Thor #114: Did you notice the “Thor Tingle” in this story?
   “I sense deadly menace nearby!”
   “My enchanter uru hammer begins to tingle!”
   “It tingles more than EVER now! There is danger behind me!”
   Thor Tingle is officially a thing. If you experience Thor Tingle for more than 30 minutes, consult a goddess of healing and administer Golden Apples.

   So what happens if the Grey Gargoyle touches the Absorbing Man? From my extensive research into comic book science, the results can be any of the following:
   * They both turn human without their powers.
   * They both turn to stone, immobilized.
   * They merge into a single rampaging stone monster.
   * They hold hands and as new besties skip to the local soda shoppe for hot fudge sundaes.
   BECAUSE SCIENCE!

   Tales to Astonish #66: Hank and Jan have a cat. Yep, marriage is right around the corner. Any day now. Aaaannnnnyyyyy daaaaaaaay….. nooooooow….

   The Wasp was doing some pretty great stuff in this issue. I could have done without her being captured (AGAIN), but after that, she was great!

   For the Hulk, I double-checked. Two issues ago, he was still using pronouns “I” and “me”. Last issue, still using “me”, but a bit of “They can’t stop the Hulk!” This issue, it was all third person. “Hulk is mad!” “Hulk’s friend is dead!” “Who shoot at Hulk?” “Hulk not gonna pay a lot for this muffler!” It was very gradual, so we’ll see if it’s settled, but it sounds like they’ve finally reached “primitive Hulk” speech. That took longer than I thought it would.

   Until the Absorbing Man becomes the mascot for Bounty paper towels, make mine Make Ours Marvel!
