My Greatest Adventure #1 is out!

[eyz]

Wow! I didn't notice it had been announced before, but... Here's something nobody will probably care about
besides me and other fans of these characters or creator but..



"Weird Worlds" characters Garbage Man and Tanga are back in publication, "New 52" DCnU or not! This new title is called "My Greatest Adventure" which is actually a throwback to an old DC book were Doom Patrol stories ran in, many years back.

Here's the official solicit:

The adventures of Garbage Man and Tanga from WEIRD WORLDS continue – and now, these offbeat heroes are joined by the Robotman, who has a disturbing knack for self-destruction!

This anthology series is back, only now they ditched Lobo for what seems to be Doom Patrol's Robotman (sporting a new ugly redesign btw). Here's the previews for all three features:



Boy is this new design for Cliff ugly...



Won't it be a bit confusing for new readers to have two similarly designed "swamp creatures" running around the DCU?



Awesome, this means more Kevin Maguire and that makes me happy <3

Woah! must be behind the cut!

[eyz]

I know! I'm having some trouble with the code. It keeps taking out the "< cut > and < / cut >

I'm trying to edit it correctly! >__

[shadowpsykie]

heh just warning you before the mods do :D

[eyz]

I know my post had a problem, and I'm sorry!
I was trying to fix it at the moment.. (should have used the "preview" button.. *shakes fist*)

[shadowpsykie]

yay! its fixed *throws scooby snack * :D

[eyz]

*nom nom nom*

IDK why they wouldn't just put all of these characters on a team together, I would buy the shit outta that.

[fifthie]

Tanga's costume somehow manages to take almost* every single terrible idea in female comic book character costume design and makes them all somehow inexplicably fantastic.

*No choker

At the same time, I fear seeing Tanga drawn by someone else's than Kevin Maguire... Like only he (and the eventual 2-3 others picked for these covers) can master this character he designed..

[akodo_rokku]

Motto. I'm really fond of Tanga.

[ninjapeps]

they're probably pronounced different ways but "tanga" is the Filipino word for "stupid" or "idiot".

[kamino_neko]

It's also a word for several cuts of underpants. (Seems like pretty much everything between bikini and thong counts as a tanga.)

[lieut_kettch]

Technically, anything cut high over the hips in front and on the sides but still covering up the butt-cheeks behind is a tanga.

[kamino_neko]

That was basically my understanding of the term, until I did a search for them a while back, and half of what came up was a half a step away from being a thong, and half of the remaining sites just shrugged and gave me thongs.

[eyz]

Well, check out her costume. Take into account it's Kevin Maguire from the Bwahahaha-Justice League creating his own character.

Seems like something done for purpose for a character that doesn't take itself too seriously like 99% of the rest of the DC lineup :P

[eyz]

And it is also... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanga_%28clothing%29
But considering her costume, that's probably what Maguire went for on purpose :P

*sees cover*

"WTF is Ultron doing in the DCU and is he gol--oh wait thats Robotman :/ "

[drmcninja]

I know, I saw that too. I think the face could have worked just fine, but the rest of the body is just... weird. It looks almost fragile instead.

[eyz]

They should have given him a nose...and some clothes, not much... Just some pants over his robotic body.. And more normal body build instead of this one..

[eyz]

I mean, something like that would have been easy to add to that new design (pants+nose):


(that's just some quick doodles, you get the idea..)
