Didn’t || Harley also bite off his tongue form that same storyline after Joker stole her from the Suicide Squad? And yet Joker was still able to speak perfectly despite having no tongue? ||

@ice1517  
Well there’s three of them so…
 
Let’s what the War of Jokes and Riddles does.

 
one side has she-hulk, hercules and thor…
 
all tony’s team get is one extra member to make it “fair”

@OptimusPrimevil  
They really should have just had thor or herc swap sides and everyone else sit it out, only them and wonderman would even count in that contest,

@Thanotos Omega  
I know IM suits have a mode that can pump out insane power for a fraction of a second but even that would be useless if thor, herc and shulkie will be anticipating it.

@OptimusPrimevil  
what year is this from?

So there is really dumb Superman comic where Lois Lane tries to get interviews with the black community of Metropolis (with the loving name of “Little Africa), and she can’t get the interviews because she is white, so she has Superman put her in a magic box to change her into a black woman, and then she gets a bunch of racist shit thrown at her.
 
And then she asks Superman if he would still love her even if she is a black woman, and he actually fucking hesitates to answer, and he hesitates so long until Lois ends up turning into a white girl again, and he never mentions that question again.

@ice1517  
ah the “whatever comic age that takes place in”

@angrybrony  
The 70’s.
 
Also, I’m reminded of the Punisher story where he gets his faced damaged by the Kingpin in prison, and he gets plastic surgery to become a black guy. He then teams up with Luke Cage to beat up drug dealers.

@ice1517  
i know that one. linkara did a review of that one.

@angrybrony  
I guesses comics must have wanted to turn white characters black during that time then.

Also, I’m wondering something. Since DC is making a new TV show that ties into the Flash and Green Arrow called Black Lightning, I wonder if having a black characters and naming he something like “Black fire” or “Dark ice” would fly in this day and age.

@ice1517  
well they couldn’t do worse than “Ghetto Man”.

@angrybrony  
… is that real?

so what other marvel characters should appear in New Warriors?
 
@angrybrony  
is that Demon in the Bottle?

@ice1517  

 

@ice1517  
look it up, it’s a very real thing dc did.

@ice1517
 
@angrybrony  
And what I found was…
 

@Darth Prime  
RACIST

@Darth Prime  
I actually find that somewhat amusing.

Not sure whether I like what Alien Covenant does to the franchise or not.

@Dustcan  
Let me ask you this: did you see Alien vs Predtor?

K, I watched some of Villainous.
 
I like the paper-bag guy. I can’t stand the scene girl though.

@Darth Prime
 
Both of them.
