Just a Thanksgiving get-together

[catey]

There are a lot of excellent parts (the Carter/Ollie fight, how Powergirl punches a drunk Wildcat out of the window) but I only posted the Batman ones . I know it's not thanksgiving yet, but this was such an nice issue  that I couldn't resist posting it.

These are 7 pages from Justice Society of America # 54.



Oh, gotta love that smile. He could have  shaved, though, but I guess he doesn't care. After all it's not like he wants to be there.


Actually, it's Pieter/Doctor Mid-Nite who covers the monitor duty. With Dinah, which makes the situation awkward because she's just ditched him to be with Ollie, who's also attending the meeting (actually, he's the only one not wearing his costume). Batman tries to take over monitor duty but he's forced to go back to "enjoy" the food. Which of course, puts him in a bad mood.





Barging into a JLA/JSA meeting AND messing up PowerGirl's hair? Oh, guys, you're so gonna regret this.
33 minutes of super beating can really last a lifetime.





And just because I like the food+Batman theme, here is one of the rare bat-related pages from BiggerThanCheese.



Gotta admit that I'd cry too if I had to eat brussel sprouts...

Why wouldn't they take the breadsticks? Breadsticks are awesome! And they're free!

[proteus_lives]

Maybe Bats knew they forgot the cheese sauce.

[grazzt]

Because everyone ends up fighting over them, of course. And with superheroes, a fight over bread sticks can end up doing serious property damage.

When you say Carter/Ollie fight..I hope you mean fist fight because..That is one of the things I've ALWAYS wanted to see. Other than that..Batman makes me Lol here.

[catey]

Batman separates them before they could punch each other. Too bad.

I think there is a two-pages fight in some Hawkman issue. Ollie accuses Carter of being a creepy old dude who lusts after a poor innocent 20 years old (Kendra). That he's just obsessed and knows nothing about love. Of course, Carter punches him hard after that. I can post the scans if you want.

[big_daddy_d]

Awesome.

And on a sidenote..as much as I love GA, doubt he's one to talk about lusting after young women. As for Carter..he's stingy..couldn't let Roy have her. Gotta go after every woman with a Hawk in her name. Just sayin.

God, getting food on yourself during a meal is always icky.

I'm always amused at the dickishness of the JLSA and JLA having a kids table.

Poor Courtney, getting stuck at a table with Jakeem and Bart. And I always laugh when she looks at Captain Marvel and says "YOU should be at the kids table."

Hmm, who's the vegetarian pizza for? I presume Diana and Jennie?

[curlyjo1]

I believe Doc Midnite's been said to be vegetarian before. Can't recall exactly when right now,though.

PG's Breasts

[autolychus2]

I'm not one to comment on this usually, mainly because I don't care, but dayum! Her breasts are bigger than Diana's head in this. I don't know why I needed to point this out. Maybe it's the Thanksgiving theme that had me thinking about breasts.

Also, Bats was just so ... Bats in this. I loved it.

[roibenrye]

Awwww I love superheroes being a family. Even if Batman's always right. XD

[greenmask]

Personally I would just eat the meat and gravy off the walls. Pizza is delicious, but it is no full roast.

[pyrotwilight]

Or you know had Dr. Fate do a reversal spell? Hmm.

[greenmask]

Not being a DC person I did not know that that was possible!

I guess they just wanted to give a couple pizza guys a Thanksgiving treat. Aw, heroes.

[pyrotwilight]

Well, I'm not sure if it's ever happened but considering he's a master sorcerer well, it'd at least be possible.

[greenmask]

Mary Poppins could do it with a click of her fingers, I am pretty sure that an "accomplished sorcerer" (thanks wiki!) could re-form a dinner.

Auh, I really want some roast!

[grazzt]

Actually, I'd put twenty dollars on Mary Poppins in a fight between her and Dr. Fate.

[mullon]

Oh Batman, you're such a humorless prick.

[retro_nouveau]

Heh, I could almost see this being written by Giffen and DeMatteis, and drawn by Maguire.

Aw, I so miss Bart as Impulse. Yeah, foul language is going to be even more out now that Barry is back. XD

I know who the veggie pizza is for. Wonder if she has to share with anyone else.

Love superhero parties. I think Terrific should set it up every year just to show Bruce that it can happen. No matter how many years it takes. XD

[catey]

Diana? Really? I thought it was for Buddy/Animal man? He's a veggie, right?

[pyrotwilight]

Indeed he is.

[retro_nouveau]

So Buddy who channels animals and Diana who talks to animals split the green pepper, onions and olives. Now I wonder what Vixen and B'wana Beast like on their pizza. Although I actually still can't see Diana of Themyscira looking for nuts and berries while Conan of Cimmeria, Kull of Atlantis, and Fafhrd of the Snow Clan are roasting a carcass on a spit.

[ar_feiniel]

Seriously, why to people even eat brussel sprouts anymore? They're gross.

[victory_or_death]

Actually, I hate asparagus. *BLEAH*

[liliaeth]

I like them, it depends on how they're cooked though.

[terrykun]

Batman doesn't like breadsticks.

[grazzt]

Or chocolate ice cream.

[jelly_ace]

I think I saw a scan of this somewhere here, although I'm not so sure...

Batman telling I told you so must be in the top 5 of the most annoying things in the multiverse.

[zordboy]

And the thing is, he'd probably do it all the time.

[likeaminx]

I love this comic so much I wish I could marry it.

Also I don't get the brussel sprout hate. I think they're awesome.

[brandiweed.livejournal.com]

Brussels sprouts seem to be one of those green vegetables that are notoriously easy to cook badly.

[queendork56]

They are awesome!

[zordboy]

The thing that made me laugh the most, for that whole Thanksgiving scene, is that the two supervillains think that, maybe if they just sneak away quietly, nobody will notice they were there ^_^.

And oh Bruce. You probably invited them to crash the party just for the sake of saying "I told you so" to Michael afterwards. hehehe.

[auggie18]

I love the Bart/Jakeem interaction. They need to have more teen heroes just hanging out with each other. And by teen heroes I mean actual teen heroes, not just whoever is in the Titans at the moment.

[tacobob]

Mmmm. Turkey Lover's Pizza.

[crinos]

I just love the look on the villains face when they realized how totally fucked they are.

BTW, whose the three eyed blue guy in the dashiki?

[zordboy]

Is that the Warlock of Ys, or is that the other guy?

[crinos]

I think the Warlock of Y's is the red guy.

[curlyjo1]

I love the look of "Holy crap, how many of them are there?!?"

[jcbaggee]

Fucking adore this JSA issue.

Also, Batman should really just randomly yell I AM THE NIGHT!! more often.

[another]

If I were a pizza delivery guy and Batman opened the door, I think I might have a stroke.

[zordboy]

Batman might not like that very much.

[catey]

It would totally be worth it, though.

[dimwit90]

I loved Bart's little thumbs up in this! Well I also loved everything else but the statement stands :)

[aaron_bourque]

Did I lose more time that I thought? Is it near the end of the year? First that Christmas thing, and now Thanksgiving . . . wait.

Is the calendar running backwards? OH MY GOD THAT'S IT

JULIAN DAY HAS ESCAPED FROM ARKHAM AGAIN!!!!
