Cringeworthy Comicbook Moments: Jessica Brings Up An Unfortunate Part of Ms. Marvel's Backstory

Possible trigger warning for discussion of rape

From the sequel to Jessica's solo series Alias, she's beginning to give birth to her and Luke Cage's baby. He feels that this is a good time to bring up her friend Carol Danver's last pregnancy, much to the discomfort of everyone of the room.





And I swear that I'm not posting this just because of that Todd Akin guy's moronic comments a few days ago.

Carol, this might not be the best time, but is your superhero outfit really the best thing to be wearing in a hospital?

And it just occured to be that getting mysteriously pregnant is something that she has in common with Power Girl, who pre-Crisis (I think) she was impregnanted by the universe for some reason (yeah, really). Since this was shortly after she slept with Hal Jordan, he naturally decided to act like an ass and start yelling at her for denying that it was his baby.

"Tell us about how your relationship with Karen Page panned out, Matt."

"Tell us about the time you killed Bullseye after he blew up a housing project, Matt."

Wow, Daredevil really does make this way too easy.

"Tell us about the time your identity as Daredevil was made public knowledge, Matt."

"Tell us about the time you kicked the shit out of the Kingpin and declared yourself Kingpin, Matt."

"Tell us about that time Typhoid Mary set you on fire in public, Matt."

Yeah, far, far too easy.

"Tell us about the time you were possessed by a demon and tried to take over New York City with the Hand, Matt."

Way to damn easy.
