Shogunaut looks like one of Kirby’s Celestials.

The Die Hard comic will not meet the expectations of the people who love the movie. But it will meet the expectations of those who hate the movie.

Frogs are the new gorillas.

They still can’t get Robin’s costume right. Marshall Rogers showed them the way. All you have to do is unlace his doublet and draw the fabric to look a little more Elizabethan. Then color his legs light green.

Of course, Robin’s costume was Dick’s costume, and based on the Grayson’s performing costumes. (Am I remembering that right?) I have no idea who this new kid is.

So, that doesn’t look anything like Obama. It looks like a generic “black guy” face.

According to The Beat, DubipR hit the nail on the head. Apparently Archie Comics was showing the covers to #800-605l

Archie’s going the route of Big Love.
He’s going to marry Betty, Veronica, Cheyrl, and Big Ethel… just get her off Jughead’s back. Do we really know the laws of Riverdale about bigomy? Could be legal there for all we know.

I’m pretty sure they’re doing 3 issues of “what if Archie marries Veronica” and then 3 issues of “what if Archie marries Betty.” They just haven’t really let it out about the Betty part since they know everybody would realize that it’s just one of their normal wastes of time.

Archie's getting hitched? Perpetual kids grow up so fast these days. Sniff. "Click Rush" -- what an awesome name. He doesn't even need the "Gadget Man" business. Also: As one of the three people who read Adam Beechen's Hench, I'm interested to see what Danny McBride does with the property. I haven't seen Eastbound & Down or The Foot Fist Way, but I liked him well enough as the support player who would not die in Pineapple Express.

I dunno, like I said when I first heard the news about Archie #600, as soon as I see the word “Proposal” spotlighted, I think that that is basically a hint that the story is not “Archie marries the woman he proposes to” but rather “Archie proposes to Girl X, but will he actually MARRY her?” And in fact, my first instinct was “I bet he proposes to Veronica but ends up either marrying neither or marrying Betty.”

But we shall see, I suppose…
