Marvel Super Heroes #2 preview

[sherkahn]

The economy is bad, things are rough all over and with the way oil and Europe is going, its going to get grim again soon. So look for a new sign of Hope and Change, as a new job position has opened up. CosmicBookNews has the guy who is ... headhunting... for the Big Important Job. Two pages behind the cut.






Sign me up! I have my bags packed and I am good to go, ready to start NOW! And I got my sister's cat, and it's priceless to her (but annoying to me). Can I go now?

Galactus understands PR. So now he officially graduates to the head of the Cosmic Villain list. XP.

[digicom]

But apparently not the Web.

@/galactus.righthand galactus.com?

[philippos42]

Wait, what?

I can see it now:

[halialkers]

Men of Earth! Galactus wants YOU! for the Cosmic Army!

Re: I can see it now:

[crinos]

Someone needs to make an poster of that, with Galactus pointing at the viewer ALA Uncle Sam.

[silverzeo]

So in all of the Marvel Verse, the citizens, let alone the ones in New York, are idiots?

[daningram.insanejournal.com]

Isn't that pretty much a given?

[cainofdreaming]

Where were you when they were hammering that point into our skulls for the better portion of the last decade?

Just asking because I'm seriously considering moving there.

[mullon]

You act like this is the only place he's visited.

[protogarrett]

Yes. If they were smart no one would live in a major city, much less New York where super battles that cause insane amounts of city damage and cost untold of numbers of lives happen on a weekly basis. If you live in the MU and you want to be safe you live in Montana.

Keep in mind these people were fine with Osborn being in charge.

[midnightvoyager]

I dunno. Remember what happened to Kansas.

[protogarrett]

...A tornado came and took Dorothy and her house away?

I have don't recall. Was Stamford there?

Either way Kansas still has a far greater population than Montana due to Topeka and Kansas City.

[midnightvoyager]

Am I thinking of the wrong state? Had Asgard plunked into it? I may be thinking of the wrong state.

*thinks* Oklahoma! Oklahoma. God, some state. I can't keep up with things. I am smart.

[zordboy]

In other news, Ricky Martin is gay, Paris Hilton is a tramp, and Madonna eats the souls of third-world-babies to stay young. What else is new?

[cmdr_zoom]

Yes.
Yes they are.

[pyrotwilight]

FUCK YEAH FIRELORD.

Sorry. Pyro moment there.

[icon_uk]

So that explains this then! :)

[nefrekeptah]

You know, I have heard from sources like Newsweek that the economy actually isn't as badly off as everyone thinks that it is - apparently, our economy is doing much better than it was before.

[darklorelei]

SUCKS TO YOUR UNEMPLOYMENT.

"My" unemploymeant? I'm employed.

[nefrekeptah]

Well, they are calling this the "jobless recovery".

[falseaesop]

This would be the perfect venue for Galactus's daughter to break through from net subscriber exclusive to dead tree continuity.

[pyrotwilight]

Galacta: My boyfriend is HOT and it pisses off daddy that I'm dating on of his former workers. WIN WIN!

Where you find food for a god
Search the universe for food
Gain insane technology
Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true
In the stars filling the sky like a sea
Where gain the power to fly
Play in nebulas and the Milky Way
Study Astronomy
Planets everywhere like grains of sand
The rewards are so grand
When your team and others meet

With Galactus
Yes, you can search the whole galaxy
With Galactus
Yes, you can watch Him eat all he sees
With Galactus
Come on now, people, make a stand
With Galactus, With Galactus
Can't you see He needs a hand
With Galactus
Come on, or he'll eat your motherland
With Galactus
Come on and join your fellow man
With Galactus
Come on people, and make a stand
With Galactus, With Galactus, With Galactus

[pallas_athena]

He wants you! He wants you! He wants you or your world is through!

[ulf_boehnke]

I bet it's Mephisto in disguise!

[terrykun]

Beat me to it!

It's the smirk. Totally the smirk.

[mullon]

Never trust a job where they don't say what the pay is up front.

[skalja]

Apparently Galactus wants only straight men and lesbians to apply. Or, more likely, Firelord is a jerk.

Does anyone else find the various Marvel Adventures incarnations of Galactus more interesting than 616 Galactus?

[neuhallidae]

Marvel Adventures Galactus can play cosmic baseball. Has 616 Galactus ever done it?

[skalja]

I've only read a couple of 616 Galactus stories, in which he has not.

And that is why Marvel Adventures Galactus is better.

[queen_marshed]

DUDE sign me ON.

[psychopathicus_rex]

So is 'MSH' set in some sort of alternate parallel to the regular MU? That is, I KNOW it is, but that one page with Lady Liberty seems to be underlining it, given that, y'know, she's got WINGS.

[sherkahn]

Yup.

[psychopathicus_rex]

It just seems a little odd to me that they're going out of their way to emphasize it with such a distracting detail, when most of the time, the line has been more of a funhouse mirror of the normal Marvel U - 'this is how things are in the MU, if you look from the right angle and squint reeeeeeeeal hard'.

[da_reap]

In it to WIN it. It would be like an internship to break into the World-Devouring trade! (And have you seen their Union? HOOO.)

[tsunamiwombat]

Marvel missed a golden ad opportunity by not making that a real website with a "real" application to be Galacticus' herald.
