there's a very real possibility that this will make even less sense in tradehttp://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y298/hukl/godrobindick.jpg

this dude has no idea how to use ellipsis

i mean read that panel out loud and give each ellipsis a good 2 second pause and the dialogue gets even wackier

― am0n, Wednesday, 16 February 2011 21:21 (thirteen years ago) link
is the storyline that the Graysons stole someone's trapeze moves, and therefore they were justifiably kiled under circus law? And now Batman has to kill Robin under that same circus law, because he's a real stickler for following the law, even circus law?
― Philip Nunez, Wednesday, 16 February 2011 21:38 (thirteen years ago) link
Robin's... dick is exactly what I would call the rich man's climbing tool in the first image above. Am I wrong? Or does it look totally like a sex toy?

For my review of this I was planning on posting that first page and just leave it at that. Sadly, I have no scanner and GIS was coming up with nothing so I just posted two clips from IRMA VEP.

Wow. Does no one edit Adams' scripts, or did they just not care? I mean, the "jacking" thing is just...words fail me.

Close your eyes; remember the body you've just seen, then slowly undress it. #3. Reach out, and without touching, show what you want to do to the body in front of you #4. Put your right hand upon the shoulder of the body in front of you. #5. Rhythmatically move your body to the beat. #6. Physically touch the body in front of you in every way imaginable. #7. Lose complete mental control, and begin to jack.

Dear God. The combination of that incredible Bruceface and the "cross between Jon Hamm and Christopher Lloyd" comment almost killed me. This thread just keeps on giving.
It begs the question, just how deranged and incomprehensible would this have to get before DC would consider not publishing it? And the answer is, of course, they never would, because they know anything with Neal Adams name on it will sell on that basis alone. The quality or lack thereof is basically irrelevant.
― Pheeel, Sunday, 20 February 2011 01:02 (thirteen years ago) link
The fact that a recent Kevin Smith Batman story had the Caped Crusader admit to pissing himself would indicate Adams has a long way to go before anyone would try to reign him in. The obvious lack of simple copy-editing & continuity-minding speaks volumes too. But, please DC, give me more balls-out insanity of this variety than the mopey Rise of Arsenal stuff.
