To start the weekend, something a little OUTRAGEOUS!

[icon_uk]

The pre-credits sequence from the latest Brave and the Bold

I'm not sure if it's ever right to apologise to The Pruitts of Southampton, but

The episode itself "Sword of the Atom", sees the first appearance of Ray Palmer as the Atom in B&tB, but let's just say that Ryan Choi (RIP :( ) gets a much better end to his career as the Atom than his comic counterpart, but to say more would spoil too much.

And for legality, a couple of memorable Aquaman covers;

I love the exuberance of this one....



Can't imagine why this one appeals to me... ;)



(I love the fact it's an invese drowning!)

And this one, for the sheer WTF? of it!

BATB Aquaman is OUTRAGEOUS!

[speedingtortoise]

In my opinion, if DC could do one single thing to redeem their strange new reboot plans it would be to make Superman a complete and utter dick who pulls stuff like the cover shown here on a day to day basis. That would amuse me endlessly.

[aaron_bourque]

Some of us want the Real Superman, thank you.

[thatnickguy]

Well, DC didn't do it but we DO have that comic.

It's called Irredeemable. :D

[joasakura]

Oh my god. BATB is a precious, wonderful thing.

OUTRAGEOUS!!!

:squee:

[an_idol_mind]

I wish DC's reboot included making Aquaman more like his Brave and the Bold counterpart. I would buy the hell out of that book...especially if they called it The Outrageous Aquaman or I Shall Call This the Time Aquaman Got His Own Book.

[sherkahn]

I am on my way to the hospital. I ROFL and bust a gut. And my funny bone is all busted open from too much activity.

[retro_nouveau]

Not sure what you mean about Ryan's career ending in BATB. I think what happened was perfect, it should happen (more or less) like that for all heroes everywhere who pass the torch, that it was BATB!Ted that got the raw deal.

Garth takes one for the team. XD

BATB!Mera is looking more and more like (616) Medusa to me.

It's strange, I can't enjoy or even laugh at the bondage covers/panels anymore.

[icon_uk]

I was attempting NOT to reveal too much about the plot to leave what actually happens a surprise for people

[star_of_airdrie]

Okay, I'm confused - why is Verizon FIOS and/or Cartoon Network not showing these in metro Philadelphia? We didn't get the Wonder Woman one, this one isn't showing up either tonight...

Or do you have post-production, pre-release clips or do were those of us in The Cradle of Liberty deemed undeserving?

[lorriek]

I'm assuming BATB episodes aren't airing anywhere in the U.S. at the moment. Or am I mistaken?

[crinos]

They should just make comic Aquaman like he is in BATB. It'd would be awesome and this is as good a time as any to do it with the reboot.

Possible nicknames for Ray Palmer

Ray "The Boring One" Palmer"

Ray "Grandpa" Palmer

Ray "FUCK RAY PALMER" Palmer

[turtlefu]

As a huge fan of Ray Palmer, I have to say...

Ryan Choi is still 1000x more interesting than Ray.

Simone's series had far more character than any of the Ray stories, including the Gardner Fox years, Sword of the Atom, and the new Jeff Lemire attempted revival.

[shadowpsykie]

god why do i enjoy the campiness! shades of West/Ward/Craig!

[mistersandman]

The Jimmy Olsen cover is one of my all-time favorites.

[glprime]

And here I thought my imagination would give my blue Ford Focus the voice of Patrick Warburton, John DiMaggio sneaks in to contest the idea heartily. (It's been a long drive home, and I think up story ideas in the meantime).

[proteus_lives]

That's just wonderful.

If the DC-Boot-From-Hell could have any good outcomes, it's a reason for Aquaman to start saying "OUTRAGEOUS!".

[darkknightjrk]

Man, Mera and the kid's faces during Aquaman's singing made me think:

"Mom, Dad's singing to an invisible studio audience. Again."
"It'll pass, son. Just smile and nod."

[auggie18]

...given B:BatB's willingness to actually kill heroes and the mondo-hosing Aqualad's been going through lately, I'm actually a little disturbed by the fact that he doesn't show up in the rest of the skit after catching that dynamite.


I know it's a joke and they wouldn't kill B:BatB's Aqualad like this...


would they?

[pyrotwilight]

Well, they do have Arthur Jr. alive here, their had to be a trade off I guess,

[selke]

That is beautiful. And I keep hearing Kimber from "Jem" screaming "OutRAGEous!"

[ogrebear]

That was really funny aping of old sitcoms!

A little deeper and Aquaman could have been voiced by BRIAN BLESSED.

[icon_uk]

True (and I think Mr DiMaggio knows it too), though Mr Blessed is busy in my headcanon voicing Volstagg.

[cloud_wolf]

Mera's huge hair reminds me of how badly I want a New Teen Titans episode. But that's not going to happen, is it? :(

[icon_uk]

Thing is, of any cartoon series, this would be the one to do it. The slightly taciturn B&tB Bats meeting Dick's effusive, bubbly new girlfriend could be great fun!

[terabient]

OH FLUKE.

And the last cover is one of my favorites ever. Supes looks so pleased with the entire situation!

[fifthie]

God knows it's been said, but BATB Aquaman really does have one of the top five all-time beards.

[icon_uk]

And for once we don't mean Mera!

Bad-dum-Tish!

[cypherfdp]

Jesus, that Arthur Jr. hair.

[icon_uk]

At least this one grew old enough to have hair like that. :(

And it's sort of an homage to this Aquaman's look

[tacitoz]

OUTRAGEOUS!
And oh man, this reminds me of Superdickery. I'm so sad they aren't updating anymore, I got a lot of giggles from it. :c
And that video was so awesome...why aren't there more Superhero/villain sitcoms? xD oh BtBatB <3

[eyz]

Both Atoms!
I loved it!
Loved the little panels they shared around in the little time both where alive and the Atom.

[schala_kid]

Dear Arthur, DO NOT LEAVE YOUR KID WITH BLACK MANTA!!!!

Also I love Brave and the bold, they just blend in Golden Age and Silver Age with modern age and make it work! Plus Ryan is alive and kicking and I just adore his relationship with Aquaman.
