I used to think that the Joker knew Batman's secret identity. Don't remember why I thought that, or how it was supposed to work with the Joker apparently choosing to keep Bruce's secret, but in my mind, it made complete sense.

I could see the Joker being crazy enough to know Bruce's secret and just not give a shit.

Because of the Spider-Man game on the PS1, I used to think that one of Venom's powers was that he could turn invisible. It didn't help matters that I played the PS2 Spider-Man movie game around the same time, and that game had a mechanic where if you were in an area with shadows, you'd become invisible to the enemies.

In my head, it was like... "Shadows make you invisible, Venom's costume is made of shadows, ergo he can turn invisible whenever he wants, makes perfect sense." And to be perfectly fair to 10-year-old me, it's not like the game's reasoning makes a ton of sense. Like, I get that it's supposed to be the video game-y depiction of Venom being "invisible" to Spider-Man's spider-senses, but the way they depict it, with the special sound effect and everything, with Venom disappearing RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU, it really does come off like a legitimate superpower that he has.

That happened in the Silver Age. In Smallvile he was already bald when they met.

The symbiote actually can use camo to go invisible, Flash used it a fair bit.

That was Power Girl's weakness for a while, no joke.

yeah that game had an excellent lineup, but they could not have picked more difficult characters for a beatemup
>guy who is just strong
>guy who just has nekode
>guy who teleports
and they were the coolest ones, so they had to make them awesome

That was so fucking retarded, even for comics.

>guy who is just strong
There's nothing difficult for that, basically every fighting game has one big slow guy.

Then you have the average all-rounder guy, then you have the fast character who is usually either a girl or a kid.

I thought the color magenta was 'magneta' and that's why magneto's name was that, because of his costume's color
I also thought the thundercats were the tigercats. i was dumb
seriously? wood and rocks hurt her?

Technically Clark's ship that brought the Kryptonite made Lex go bald. He was hit by the debris that left him catatonic and bald.

But yeah in the Silver age Lex was creating a cure for Kryptonite or some other goofy shit and an explosion caused him to lose all his hair thus his hatred for Superman.

yeah but it would be boring if everyone else got a special and all he got was doing-more-damage and presumably also taking less damage.

Anything non-processed hurt her, so she could laugh off bullets but if you smacked her with a branch she'd go down like a Green Lantern having a brick painted yellow chucked at their head

Various X-Men things I thought because of the cartoon.

>thought Cyclops' power was heat vision, and the reason his visor and glasses were red was that the heat vision kept them constantly red-hot
>thought Juggernaut's power was that he literally could not stop once he started moving even if he wanted to, and that was what he meant by being unstoppable
>thought Professor X's powers made him bald

I used to think that Babyface was an already established villain before Brave and the Bold until I did more research. He was created for the show.

Aren't Professor X's powers tied to his legs not working for some reason, and when he's been cured of being a cripple his telepathy stops working?

I can't remember. It was a one-off sort of thing, that ended up with Robin crushing Hal's windpipe and Batman having to do an emergency trachea operation with a straw.

That game made me love Dazzler

Yep, was Goddamned.

no

Why did they have that in the animated intro and the arcade game?

Attached: hqdefault (2).jpg (480x360, 21K)

They've done weird things with it, but it's not supposed to be linked. I know in the cartoon in the Savage Land he could walk, but not have his powers... for reasons.

All Star Batman & Robin.

Including a lusty WW, even more retarded Hal, and Superman who just wants to break everything.

That's likely what I'm remembering then

The original Green Lantern's weakness was literally 'Wood' so you could use the branch on him too.

In the Avengers brawler, when they died, they'd shout, "I cannot move!" I thought this meant that they had actually died, but locked consciously within their dead body, horrified that they aren't able to move, not realizing they are actually dead.

Jezzus!

That's so fucking stupid, how does matter know it's been processed. i thought she was just a kryptonian. all their weaknesses and strengths have to do with radiation
at least that made a little sense since he was flat-out magic back then, and it tied in with the chinese elements, so like, he was metal and the element wood beats it I think. and they explained it as having the power of nature in it..

>thought Juggernaut's power was that he literally could not stop once he started moving even if he wanted to, and that was what he meant by being unstoppable
That would mean he would never stop moving ever..
>thought Professor X's powers made him bald
this is why modern movies are being written by dumb kids like us.
>animal mascot with a mutation
weirdly gonna be wolverine's backstory originally..
in at least one era in the comics, his legs had been healed but he had a mental block on being able to walk, tied in with his powers, so in the savage land he could walk.. the show adapted that but not the reason

Power girl has been through many retcons, she turned into an atlantean for awhile too

he's believable as a gay silver age gangster villain..

I used to think that Wolverine had electricity powers thanks to the X-Men Animated Series intro

I imagine, because based Japan.
punches and kicks and sword slashes all made beams appear, why not claws?

If I'm not mistaken in Snyder's "Death of the Family" Bruce literally went to talk to Joker and made it apparent that he was Batman to "see if if Joker CARED who Batman was". It was pretty fucking stupid but it was implied that Joker truly doesn't care who Batman is

I thought only Iron Man said that, because when his suit runs out of power he can't move

"Ward" is an old fashioned way to refer to somebody who is essentially your son , it's like the inverse of "Guardian". As for stupid comic book beliefs, when I was young I didn't realise that Kryptonite came from Krypton, I thought it was some naturally occurring mineral that just happened to hurt Superman. I also thought that Superman activated his X-ray vision by narrowing his eyes (he always did that in the cartoon when he was employing his X-ray vision) and here's a weird one: I thought that Chicken Soup was Batman's favourite food, I guess because he ate it in one scene of "Batman Returns".

I used to think John Stewart was just Hal Jordan turned black by the writers, because I didn't know either of their real names just that they were both Green Lantern.

DCAU John Stewart was my first Green Lantern. You know how, for a while in Justice League, all he ever did with his ring was fly, move heavy objects, make force field domes and shoot green lasers? For the longest time, I thought that was all the ring could do. Never occured to me that John could, you know, make constructs of any object ever limited only to his imagination.

>the Joker apparently choosing to keep Bruce's secret
Well he is insane.
Well unless adamantium is somehow an electrical insulator and I forgot or never noticed, he would be able to condict electricity with his claws. Probably wouldn't be good for him since it's his whole skeleton getting zapped, but still.

Snyder ruined his run with Death of the Family. What a bullshit story arc.
Seriously, why would Batman go to a public place and reveal his identity to Joker like that? If you think he suspects you, at least wait until he breaks out again and ask him, or break in dressed as Batman and ask in case that Joker didn't figure it out.
Instead Bruce takes the Joker playing card to Arkham and puts it against the glass telling the psycho maniac "I'm Batman, and I live in Wayne Manor. Come blow up my house or some shit."
Fuck Snyder.

I thought Sherlock Holmes was a real person until a few years ago.

>thought Gambit's real name was Gumbo
Who the fuck names their kid Gumbo?
And your original interpretation of Cyclops is somewhat smarter than the actual reasons, depending on who you ask and how it's phrased.
That Juggernaut one is really stupid though. Not sure if it's dumber than thinking his last name was Bitch though.

>Probably wouldn't be good for him since it's his whole skeleton getting zapped
He'd probably handle it better than the average person. Since most of the electric flow is going through the metal his internal organs would all be relatively safe. Most likely he'd just get the soles blown off his feet.

What about his brain?

I think a few stories have played with the idea that he either does know, or knows how he can find out. But he doesn't because he frankly doesn't care. That would ruin the fun.

Now I don't remember WHAT stories have done this, but I think it's come up at least as far back as the 80's or 90's. So you may have seen one of those.

In Morrison's run the joker knows he's bruce but doesn't give a fuck,because he believes his true self is batman and not bruce

I always thought that Kalibak was Highfather's son, and that Mr. Miracle wasn't either's and that he was just a "son" of Apokalips.

>Because (no joke) they have eXtra power,. That's the explanation Xavier made in the fisrt issue,
>And it's actually stuck to the present day
That was in the 60s,Claremont retconed that by creating the X Gene,making that the real reason they are called x-men

>his true self is batman and not bruce
Morrison really cemented some of the worst things about Batman in the past 20 years.

>Still MAME hasnt emulated the correct sound

youtube.com/watch?v=1ZraT9YxMw4

Why is it called the X gene?

There's a running joke about Alfred' chicken soup, he always sneaks Thermoses intonyhe batmobiel just in case, and it's so good it jig just have magic healing properties. The secret ingredient is a bay leaf.

It's a product of it's time. in the 30's you didn't adopt kids, you'd go to the orphanage and get foster kids to work the farm\take care of your 10 brats, they weren't your actual children.

It's like Robin not wearing pants. In the olden days clothes was expensive and kids grew so gosh darn fast that kids weren't given pants until they were older, so Robin is pantsless. Now clothes are cheap, so Robin going without pants is freaking weird.

>In Morrison's run the joker knows he's bruce but doesn't give a fuck,

sounds pretty good

>,because he believes his true self is batman and not bruce

oh

When did Morrison start?

Because of Bruce Timm I thought Toy Man had a robot doll or puppet or something for a body.
For the mist part though I was able to distinguish between retarded shitvfrom cartoons and Canon frombthe comics.

It's basically origin of Pre-COIE Luthor.

Depends on the writer,

When I was 7 and just getting into superhero shit, I watched a lot of Teen Titans. I theorized that Slade was actually Bruce Wayne who turned to evil because he was jealous that Robin left him for his own team.
I’ll always remember this for how retarded it made me sound when talking to my dad about it.

Is one of them just the eXtra thing again, but applied to the part of their DNA that isn't normal instead of directly referring to their powers? Because that just makes it even dumber.
That would be very childish and petty. And as a result, hilarious.

But that DID sort of happen. It's not exactly turning invisible, he was able to change the symbiote to blend in with surroundings. It's just writers completely forgot about this.

He did give Batman a thermos of it for the Mr. Freeze episode in BTAS.

But it's technically true, even if we ignore Damian. They are all Bruce's adopted sons.

I thought Dr. Doom had lightning powers.

I blame the first Fantastic Four movie.

>When I was 7 and just getting into superhero shit, I watched a lot of Teen Titans. I theorized that Slade was actually Bruce Wayne who turned to evil because he was jealous that Robin left him for his own team.
Believe it or not, a lot of people believed this. Some might still do.

He started the BatGod thing (followed by Scott Snyder) and the whole "he can go 1v1 against Darkseid if he wants".

Is this Batman better or worse?

Attached: Batman_Just_Imagine_003.jpg (949x999, 180K)

eXtra Power Gene

Thought so too.
Some of the dialogue implied something like that.
Though I thought slade was just testing him

There was a Playstation X-men game that I used to play when I was a child, and it featured Beast, who after knocking a character down to the ground or wall with his punches/kicks, there would be blue/light explosions that surrounded the opponent when they got hit. For the longest time, I always assumed Beast had that kind of power where he hit his targets so hard, there were explosions.

Was it only when he did it?

Up until I started reading Ultimate X-Men, like, three months ago, I seriously thought Jean Grey was Rogue. I never really watched any X-Men movies or cartoons, just sometimes saw a scene or something, so the characters were just the same in my mind because they looked similar enough.
Oh, and Jubilee from the 90s cartoon too.

holy shit user, I never realized that him turning invisible was supposed to be his immunity from spider sense
Well, wait, doesn't he turn invisible right in front of you during the boss fight right before you go into the sewer? Like, you'll be whomping on him and then he just poofs?

DINGDINGDING
NEWFLASH, DUMBASS: GAY ISN’T A PEJORATIVE

>Because of Bruce Timm I thought Toy Man had a robot doll or puppet or something for a body.

not the biggest fan of dcau but i have to admit that's so much better than the comics

shut up faggot

I thought gamibt was brain damaged and that his french was gibberish like wolverines bubs. Also that he gained his powers by eating pink cards.

better

It's a pejorative to straight people.

As a straight man I would take offense and being called gay and would likely unfriend you on Facebook.

I know what you're doing you stupid faggot.

You know it's very possible many of these people have read more comics than you? Even if they weren't from Marvel/DC?

>thought Wolverine's claws came from his gloves

That was actually the original idea, his power was just going to be healing fast.

Are you Tony Tony chopper?

It happened in the comics as well, after House of M, he lost his powers, but regained the use of his legs.

Some of the enemies had grapple attacks, the "I cannot move!" line was supposed to be for when you got grappled. If you failed to break free, you might hear it as your character died.

"The X-Gene" isn't a Claremont thing, it's an idea from the 2000s, it may have been Morrison.

LMAO

Oh man! I never looked at that!

I'm pretty sure the X Gene was already a part of the mythos by the time Fatal Attractions came about. Maybe earlier.

Chicken soup is good shit though.

Honestly, this happening and the 90s cartoon's intro for colossus made me think that. Colossus walks onto a jobsite, and says he can demo the building by himself, and he demonstrates by walking in and suddenly silver and blue lights went off and the building collapses around him. My child mind equated that to him doing the UUUWAAAAHH! thing.

It was supposedly the savage lands that did that. Both magneto and charles didn't have their powers in the savage lands. Don't remember why charles could walk though.

The cause of mutation had been changed from "radiation" to "genetics" by then, but nobody was using the term "X-gene" in the 1990s, it's more recent than that.

I thought Hobgoblin was Green Goblin's son for the longest time.

In Ultimate Spider-Man, Harry Osborn was the Hobgoblin.

X-MEN WELCOME TO DIE!

The Japanese intros for the X-Men cartoon are pretty Wild.

>>never heard that rhyme up to that point, so I thought he wasn't kidding, that his weakness was getting hit with sticks or stones
Cannon balls are just big stones though...

doesn't that man have the baseball bat that knocked out Alan Scott in comics?

I legit thought that's why they killed her off in the X-Men movie because she didn't have a code name and she was useless mind you this is before I got into comics and I was a dumb kid

I know it's technically in elseworld but Batman Beyond had episode where old man Bruce Wayne is being tricked into think he's going crazy and he's like I knew I wasn't crazy cuz the voice said Bruce that's not what I call myself. I enjoy the idea that joker doesn't care about Bruce Wayne but at the same time I don't think the Joker realize that Bruce Wayne thinks of himself as Batman like that's just dumb

I'm pretty sure if you give Doctor Doom a taser he did say he has lightning powers

I think it's horseshit whenever comic book writers TV or movie writers make it so characters can 1 V 1 Thanos or Darkseid when they previously got their ass beat cuz those two are kind of like and bosses so it really takes away from the fun of oh s*** Dark Side came down let's get the Justice League. made an amazing episode in dcau where the villains teamed up with the heroes to fight dark side

Thanos is a terrible character and should not have been kept around the Marvel universe.

My introduction to the Xmen was because of the Capcom fighters. I was severely disappointed when I learned that they dont actually have finishing moves.

I thought love was only true in fairy tales

Until I was twelve or so, I thought that Superman was part of Marvel Comics.
I thought that because of DC standing for "Detective Comics", they only did stuff like Batman, The Spirit and such, and that Aquaman, WW, Green Lantern etc were also part of Marvel, because why would Detective Comics have characters that have nothing to do with Gritty Urban crime stuff?

When people refer to the company as DC Comics aren't they just saying Detective Comics Comics?

Yes. Like when people get some money from the ATM machine.

you know I look back on this and it's really a mystery how Yea Forums ended up filled with so many closet homos blaming their lack of sex on incel

What do you mean, "closet"?

There was a whole event where dryads and ents and shit started invading and Power Girl, Superman and Green Lantern were powerless to stop them.

>Even DC characters, the most busted pieces of shit can't even compare to CoDzilla.

>>did not realize Beast was human, thought he was the team's animal mascot with a mutation that made him super-intelligent

I'm convinced there was a version of the opening credits to that show where he literally transforms from human to animal

he sounds kind of like the Dick Tracy villain Littleface (I find it hard to believe there was never a babyface in DT)

no, he was always fictional

line of least resistance; the majority of the current is going to go through his bones to earth, unless his skin is superinsulated too

Came here to say this. Imagine my surprise to find out there wasn’t one, but thousands of Green Lanterns.
I thought Jay Garrick was just Barry with an older costume too.

Its ridiculous that the Green Lanterns only number in the thousands when they claim to patrol the entire universe.

Each of those 'Sectors' they assign only one or two lanterns to at most must be pretty enormous.

Worse, when I was in middle school I thought the ISS was on the moon.

dat ass is important enough to save

I thought this too and I only know because you unrepressed my stupid memory of it, thanks

Nothing really egregious, but as a kid I had a Beta Ray Bill toy. I didn’t know Marvel existed, I barely knew about Spider-man, and I thought BRB was obviously supposed to be the big bad of some cartoon. He was buff as fuck and had a skull for head, after all

Because Claremont is obsessed with the letter X

More like with the letters XXX

And lesbian sex
>And that time where Psylocke wanted to fuck Cypher even though she was 30 and cypher was 15

She wasn't 30

Back when the Green Lanterns were weak to yellow they might as well have been magic too. They were only held back by that and the fact Hal was such a stupid and pathetic sad sack

Only Kyle ever did fun things with his ring for the longest ass time anyway

Darksied always straddled the line between "Superman" and "Justice League"

That’s because once there wasn’t much of a difference between Superman and JL on a power/threat level

If you want to get technical, Gotham was a nickname for New York, so it's not completely wrong.

>It's just writers completely forgot about this.
Not all the writers. A handful remembered he had it and made pretty liberal use of it.

Yes and no. The company was renamed (from National Comics and a couple of other things in a merger) as DC Comics, but despite the "DC" coming from the pre-existing name of the title featuring Batman stories, the name of the publisher is in fact just "DC Comics". The DC in DC Comics doesn't actually stand for anything as an initialism, it's used more like an ideogram.

I know it's not what you meant but c'mon man it's Kyle we all know he plays with his ring you can't just drop the mic like that

Hal only really stepped up his game during around Rebirth but then Kyle training Simon totally blew him the fuck out

THATS NOT AN EXPLANATION

I don't get it. How is that related to this thread?

If you turn your head and squint, you could have easily cobbled together something like that from his first few appearances, that Bruce Wayne/Batman is pulling another Matches Mallone situation and feigning villainy under an assumed name, in this case for the purpose of putting the TT's through the ringer to train them into a proper heroic force. It doesn't fall apart as a theory until things start getting a little too intense later on.

Doesn't help that "Slade" in this continuity is a spooky literally-who with no meaningful connection to his normal portrayal as a world-famous mercenary.

>>thought Juggernaut's power was that he literally could not stop once he started moving even if he wanted to, and that was what he meant by being unstoppable
holy shit I thought this too, except he could stop himself from moving if he chose (but no other object or person could ever completely stop him from moving). that's why when I read in one of the Marvel guides as a kid that spider-man defeated him by making him fall in a deep vat of cement or some shit, I thought the reason Spider-Man decided to do that was the cement slowed him down a lot but since he couldn't physically be stopped because of his power he would just keep moving slowly through the cement and eventually get out, so Spider-Man had just slowed Juggernaut down so he could run away and that that was the only possible way to "defeat" the Juggernaut was to really slow him down.

>I thought NAMBLA wasn't a real thing, that South Park completely made it up.
This was me but with Wicca in Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost.

And in that it wasn't a religion, it was just "good, or at least not evil, witch"
And I'm pretty sure Sarah Ravencroft died well before Wicca was a thing.
But that's not what's important, the real Stephen King was the friends we made along the way.
Wait, what?

Thought Harley and Mercy had always been around since I first watched TAS. Was surprised to learn TAS was their debut.

Yeah that was definitely why I didn't think Wicca was real as a kid, because the Wiccans were portrayed as having magic powers in the movie.

Here's an actually really dumb thing I thought: In the Spider-Man 90s animated series, in the episode where Peter Parker first meets/dates MJ, she is referred to as a "blind date," and I had never heard that expression before, so I thought she was literally blind, but that the writers promptly forgot that the character was supposed to be blind. In the episode, Peter Parker is also reluctant to go on a date with her (at least, until he sees her for the first time) because he doesn't trust Aunt May's taste in women, but at the time I thought he was reluctant because he didn't want to date a blind woman, but when he saw her she has so hot he decided it didn't matter she was blind. (At the time btw everything I knew about Spider-Man solely came from that TV show.)

I used to think Juggernaut was a mutant until I learned it was magic

The show was better in your head than in reality.

Which was weird considering he was a Brotherhood member at one point.

I used to think of Doom as a typical villain, but he is actually very nice and sensitive and nice and smart and strong

For a short time after airing I thought this was real

but it might as well be since it's Jersey

Sometimes Juggs is a mutant, sometimes it's magic, sometimes it's the magic that brings out his dormant mutant power...

as someone who only knew Doom from the terrible Fantastic Four movie and a few scattered kids comics as a kid, I was really surprised to later learn that Doom was regarded as one of the very best supervillain characters. i had thought he was pretty bland, just an ANGRY dude who threw lightning at everyone.

All those poor people that will never know the glory of one world united under DOOM.

It was most commonly known as the X factor back then, I guess.

Like in MvC3?

I thought his powers made him go paraplegic

I thought Sentinels were Magneto's tanks due to color scheme and design.

It boggles my mind how there is no good live action version of Doom yet, but Thanos is being regarded amongst the top 5 greatest villains amongst the normies thanks to how great his live action depiction has been.

If Thanos can work, then Doom can sure as shit work. Too bad the MCU shitted itself before that could happen though. MCU is already making Captain Marvel the strongest character because of female power.

I played that Spider-Man Friend or Foe game with my cousin,he would always pick the Prowler and we called him the Purple Spider
I thought he was Spider-Man's cousin

The only Spider-Man villains i knew were Venom,Carnage,Green Goblin and Kingpin because i Just hás 2 DVDs of the 90s movie,I think i was afraid of Doc Ock because of that scene in Spider-Man 2
For a While i thought that if i bought the toy web shotters i would be able to swing around.
So i made my parents buy me a Venom costume and web shotters so i could be a superhero

Haven't played it much, but sure I guess?

Because I read Wizard magazine as a kid, I grew up thinking Bendis was a good comic book author.

They shilled for him? I remember Toyfare at least calling out some shit from Marvel back in the day.

Yeah, after end game my interest in the genre will wane. I might go see the new spider-man. Might.

I used to think Darkseid was pronounced "dark seed" because I'd never actually heard anyone speak his name before. Then he appeared in Smallville and I felt dumb.

>I used to think Darkseid was pronounced "dark seed"
...It's not?

Here are some things my 2-year-old niece told me

>She knows who Superman and Spider-Man are
>Super Girl is Super Man (Woman)
>Wonder Woman is also Super Man (Woman)
>Batman is Black Man.
>Superman just flies and punches people all day. He punches Black Man a lot, because he's a bad guy.
>Miles Morales is "Baby Spider-Man," and he's Peter's son
>She knows those Elsa and Spider-Man videos aren't real, but still thinks they should be a couple

>something this crazy and appalling existing in this world.
What's wrong with Marlon Brando impersonators?

if it makes you feel better, loads of people at the time did too. Doyle started to hate the character, partly because people kept sending him letters asking for Holmes' help solving crimes or offering to be his maid

I used to think Gotham was pronounced "got ham" because of all the "got milk" adds.

I thought this too until I saw the Superman/Batman Apocalypse movie.

>She knows those Elsa and Spider-Man videos aren't real, but still thinks they should be a couple
I could see Disney throwing money at the next Spider-Verse movie if it means getting a slice of that pie. Do you think they'd take advantage of the situation if that happened and make Elsa/Spider-Man a reality?

This looks like this was on the back of a fleers card.

I miss looking through my stepdads trading card collection.

All Star Batman and Robin to be specific. Never got finished but it was supposed to explain why we got the wtf we got at Dark Knight Strikes Again or whatever the fuck you call it.

And yet they found time to do the sequel to *that* with the master race or something. What happened to Carrie? Last I remember they were admitting thier love for one another or something.

Nope, it's just "dark side" but by mixing up the e i and d they can get a trademark.

I like the last persons improvements on the Spider-Man mythos

Speaking of arcade games I played the Capcom one as a kid which had Nick Fury in it. As a result, I thought the guy Frank was teaming up with at the end of the 1980's film was indeed some version of Nick Fury.

I vaguely recall this thread because some dickhead made a reponse to it, or a post in it, about how it was a sign of how Yea Forums had gone downhill or something along those lines

Apparently that's an unofficial war cry at Magfest but I dunno if they still do that nowadays as I've never been.

>thought Jean Grey had no powers, and that was why she didn't have a codename
I just thought Jean Grey's powers were too lame for her to have a codename. So she's like a glorified secretary.

But wasn't he ginger? If anything, Superman did him a favour

I only used to read my relatives Wizards books for the casting calls. My favorite Casting call was the Spider-Man article. I think they wanted Leonardo DiCaprio or someone for Peter?

It's been a long time but they always managed to find good pictures that made me imagine that I was looking at stills from an actual movie that was about to come out

I tought so too,especially since i tought that harry turning evil in the raimi movies was their own take on the hobgoblin.
It wasn't until two years ago that i started reading spidey's comics from the very beginning that i realized i was wrong and that he was the green goblin for a very short time.
[Spoiler]it's been two years and i only got the late 80's, venom showed up a few issues ago[/spoiler]

I've heard this was Kirby's intent but they pronounced it "dark side" in the Hanna-Barbera cartoons because of Star Wars' popularity and that's how it's been since, but I've never found an actual source.

And they say toxic fandoms are a new thing

I've tried to like his run but i just can't, i'm glad i'm not the only one, it's weird cause i've loved most of his other stuff, even the most divisive like new x men

I used to think that danny phantom was a real phantom until I realized that i am faggot and it was all the jizz in my ass making me hallucinate

>that glam rock construct
I love kyle

>she was 30 and cypher was 15
So? Age-gap is hot.

>a play on a kid's joke
>not recognizing the original joke as a kid

NANI?

I could see it happening as a sight gag, like there's an army of Spideys from 100 Spiderverses, you see a Caveman Spidey, Pirate Spidey, Giant Spidey, Zombie Spidey, and a Spidey hand-in-hand with Elsa.

If that happens, then I demand a Clone High Spidey, rendered in the art style as "Clone High".

Death Of The Family is literally everything wrong with cape comics and it made me drop Snyder.

Tolkien and his wife had to move and get a new phone number because of fantard harassment. I think they even unplugged their phone after a while.

when I first watched teen titans I didnt knew who slade was so i made a headcanon in my head were slade was actually batman teaching robin lessons and training him and the reason why slade wasnt in every episode was because somedays he was busy being batman.

When I was a kid a though Simpsons Bible stories wass the final episode. It ended with the end of the world and them going to hell. Now I wish I was right

Reminder that the Simpsons has been bad for longer than it's been good.

because of this type of shit, I used to think and still suspect that Kingpin is a low key super-strength mutant.

Dude is just way too strong, even if you buy into the "oh he's not fat, he's strong-fat. thats mostly muscle under a thin layer of fat"

of course she is. Women are the only ones who give a damn about panty lines. They judge each other over it and make a big fucking deal about visible panty lines.

See

I thought the exact same thing.

CRY FOR THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON

because of this show and a quote from some spider-man guide like "he looks really fat, but when you get close you see it's all muscle," I thought as a kid that was literally true that it was ALL muscle, like this guy's body was just a huge thicc wall of muscle with organs and bones in the middle, making him extremely strong

just sounded like a huge belch to me.
