    :dry: Anyone else feel a tad shameful at all these fat jokes?

    Nah, 90s kid totally took that bad out of it :D
  • Leather Rebel Justice  - Its more like mega man was drawn without being meg

    The physical jokes are all comparisons to real physical traits the character wasn't suppose to have. Most were fat jokes but the idea of the silver surfer having to do sit ups to actually look like the silver surfer isn't the same as telling a fat person in real life to do sit ups. The same joke would be reversed if a character called fat man was drawn skinny.

    Not for evil henchmen, but Phobos sure did well with the legions of Hell, until a space marine showed up with only a pistol

    and I think 90s Kid kicks ass, but mainly because Nirvana was a local band LOL

    For some reason I'd always get The Defenders mixed up with Defenders of the Earth as a kid.

    The phobos moon contains a portal to hell, created by the evil scientists of the UAC!

    Edit: curse you, Dinger, for beating me to the Doom refence.

    Wow. I can't believe I'm saying this, but this almost makes Liefeld's work look good in comparison...

    [i]Almost[/i].
  • Deimos1984rd  - Inflated much???
    avatar
    Wow they've all really let themselves go...especially silver surfer. I love how war machine looks squeezed in that wide armor, great review, I like the 90s kid.




    Phobos....heh. :whistle:

    Noooo Mr Thunderstrike, I expect you to DIE
  • YigSnakeDaddy
    Now that was a fine example of great literature.
    Also, I feel sorry for your poor eyes, Linkara.
    I don't expect good art for nobodies like Warmachine or Thunderstrike, but Silver Surfer looks just horrible.
    And Futa-Borg-Nebula is pretty fucking wtf :s

    good job linkara

    Well, those were pretty cool too.
    Flash Gordon! The Phantom! Mandrake the Magician! Some black dude! And a bunch of annoying kids!:0
  • Phelous  - They should have just sat on her
    avatar
    Oh no! Poor 90's Kid!
    Those sunglasses make you look like an anime character...
    I'm probably just thinking Vash the Stampede.
    Though they are all pretty "good" I think I liked wide load machine the best.

    90's kid dubbing over star trek: priceless!

    Dr. Strange really sounded like he was channeling Dr. Orpheus at the beginning. XD

    Also, those are some badass blind guy shades.
  • UraRenge
    Weird.

    I would've thought that Wong wouldn't let Strange's house be such a mess.

    another great review, great cameo of the 90s kid :D

    where can i order a catalogue for an henchman?
  • Sugarbaby  - Holy crap!
    avatar
    Just 'cuz you're second-rate never-wases that remind folks of way better heroes doesn't mean you should let yourselves go like that, for cripes' sake! :0

    Boss review as always, Link, keep 'er comin'!

    (P.S. Who the hell was the artist for this comic?? He SUCKED! And I thought Liefeld and Friends were bad... The colourist wasn't much better -- if you ask me, the heroes weren't the only ones in this comic who were second-rate, oy...) :X
  • Cluzic
    Fat Silver Surfer amuses me greatly. It's like the artist failed at drawing shitty 90's style over muscled superheros and ended up with shitty fat superheros instead.

    Not that the story was anything amazing, but I think the artwork is what really kills this comic.
  • FullmetalNinja25
    avatar
    I'm not defending this comic (at all) but in the first shot of the Silver Surfer his stomach isn't bulging it's part of his (abnormally) large forearms. But on another note Jesus Tapdancing Christ these guys have small heads! :0
  • NowCompleteWith  - Dude....

    The 90s kid has to take over one day. He just has to do so. It's so fucking funny any time you go all 90s on it, that something truly horrible from the 90s. Deserves the 90s kid's undivided attention.

    Oh yeah: WHO DREW THAT COMIC? It looked like Mike Mignola's style. If it were aped by people who believe tiny head syndrome or THS for short, is a good thing! Seriously, the Silver Surfer has been through so much, that he does not deserve an ass that massive. NO ONE DOES! NO ONE!

    Great vid linkara i dont realy read comics because i live in germany and theyre kinda hard to find but sitll love your show keep it up :cheer:
  • Bonkers  - what a shitty piece of artwork...
    avatar
    but what a great review. Honestly, very funny and entertaining (more then the Daredevil review to be honest) and a lot of funny quotes.
    Some of the best parts:

    the sunglasses part (hopefully you won`t get eye cancer)

    Silver Surfer who needs to visit the weight watchers

    the advertisement for the Mars (sorry Phobo`s) store for supervillains
    Somewhere, Rob Leifeld cries tears of joy (should be a catch phrase for the Dark age)

    the magnificient bastard clip

    your entire explanation about body sizes for comicartist (something a lot of artists seem to have failded back in those days)

    the South Park reference with the underwear gnomes.

    and well... every reaction to every stupid thing, as well as your short explanation over the Defenders (aka JLA for Marvel, but with less structure).
    I can`t wait for the "conclusion" of this "great adventure".

    Now my opinion to the comic itself:
    Okay, the story is so far not the worst you ever reviewed. I mean, that would be Amazon Attack or Superman at worlds end. (Or Captain Planet because of lack of intelligence)
    But this story has really the crappiest artwork I ever watched so far.
    I mean, the obese Silver Surfer, Warmachines first picture (his arms aren`t "just" attached there, they are shrinking into his body in an ankle not possible this way), the entire "overmuscuared" characters and so on. They don`t look "normal", even for Rob Leifelds art in Youngblood No. 1. Honestly, Youngblood had in my opinion a better art then this.
    And the characters... yeah, Silver Surfer wants to save us for a "magnificent villaines and master strategies"? I mean, not only that this woman reminds me of her actions (and your voice) more of Wonder Womans mom in Amazon Attack -but at last with a plan, even if he is stupid- but Silver Surfer? When did he show up during the last events to help?
    I thzink they just took him, because they had no other characters there. That or they wanted to create a connection to the old Defenders but failed miserable.

    And Warmachine and Thunder Max...
    who are they?
    Let`s be honest, if they were DC characters, they would be killed during the next possible event and no one would shrug.
    Okay, that`s mean but... based on DCs policy of killing characters and Marvels tendency to somehow always bring up some "not common known" characters/heros during their events, I think you can make a joke like that.
    And well, the story itself... as I said, not the worst so far, but still stupid. the entire exposition of the villain as "genius" is destroyed by the way her henchman are attacking the heros (and well, when this three can defeat her, she just has a very bad reputation), let`s not forget her plan and... well.
    Oh well, next week I will see how this thing ends.

    Looks like someone was projecting his feelings of inferiority over not being able to stay away from candy.
  • JohniBoi
    All right! More over the top Dark Age fun! Just What I like! I hope this means you'll be doing the DOOM comic next? ;)
  • tinman_xl
    I remember when we all were 90's kid, and I remember looking at the bad 90's comic book art and not seeing it for how crappy it was...
