Animal Cruelty

It's Sunday, I'm hungover and there's only one thing that's going to make me feel better and that's the classic joy that is the torment of animals in comic books! We've been here once before and it was my pleasure to share with you the fun of Superman throwing a whale and Batman tackling a lion. It's not always about the big and impressive though. Yeah, we all know about de-aged Batman wrestling a bear and you can't deny the awesomeness of that but what about the other end of the scale? Why not think small? I suggest that all people of a nervous disposition look away now.

What's in the bag? What could Kim have given Killer Croc to deal with Batman. A bomb? Laser guns? Jeph Loeb?

Those are the most painfully cute puppies the world has ever seen. But he isn't going to do what I think he's going to do, is he?

Badass [Bad-as] Slang: Vulgar, Adj;
1. (of a person) difficult to deal with; mean-tempered; touchy.
2. distinctively tough or powerful; so exceptional as to be intimidating.
3. Killer Croc + (Puppies x Altitude)

For all those no-good hippies sensitive types out there I can assure you that Robin successfully "broke left" and caught the puppy. However Batman just let the other one die because this issue of Gotham Adventures was written by Frank Miller. On the next page Batman punches a prostitute in the face.

I kid! I kid! Lazy bloggery I know, taking a pop at both Loeb and Miller. Sorry. I'm just messing with y'all. Both puppies survive and go on to lead fulfilling lives on a happy farm of some kind, possibly one made out of marshmallows and rainbows. I'd never show you anything that involves the messy death of cute, fluffy animals.


Apart from cats. Cats suck.

Sunday Morning Awesomeness

Blatantly pinched from Scans Daily:

I present to you the manliest thing you are going to see all day.



Tony Stark in his pre-cretinous days. Shirtless and mulletted forging robotic fighting suits with a cybernetic hammer as guitars wail in the background. Shortly after filming this intro sequence, Tony went off to wrestle a vampire-bear on the surface of the moon.

And if that's a little bit too manly for you, let's bring it back down with Wonder Woman rescuing some puppies.



Damn, that is equally badass but in an entirely different way. You know that as soon as she's got those puppies to safety someone is going to get their head kicked in.

I know what can calm us all down! A panel from Thor: Property Developer!


I say thee must have filed all relevant forms with the appropriate departments! Have at thee, paperwork!
