This Week in Panels: Week 132
April 1st, 2012 by Gavok | Tags: panelsIt’s Sunday, so that means it’s time for This Week in Panels! Lot of good stuff came out this week.
Usually, I’d be accompanied by my usual crew of contributors like David Brothers, Was Taters, Space Jawa, Jody, luis and the others, but recently it’s been brought to my attention that none of them are real. They’re all figments of my imagination, linked to my amazing ability to make mathematical connections. Lately, I’ve been taking pills to help me with this problem, so I should be okay.
And go!

:smug:
Real ThWiP update tomorrow.
(Seriously, though. President Evil was fucking terrible)
Helluva first panel to use. I thought Marvel had actually revisited that reality wipe, for a second.
Now I’m trying to remember which character from Ultimatum experienced that horrible Fatality panel.
Also, why is that Superman panel so PRETTY? This must have been at the height of Image’s popularity for the colors to be so vibrant and dense…and for that gun/buckle set to be so HUGE. “Gun & Buckle” does sound like a cool name, though.

by Johnny Bacardi April 1st, 2012 at 04:56 --replyIf only they made more Doom comics or up to the point where they give daisy the bunny backstory.
by SomerandomGuy April 1st, 2012 at 06:02 --replyMy brain just went RIPSPLISTS.
by W4 April 1st, 2012 at 07:48 --replyHa ha ha, “Superman: At World’s End”! What’s worse than a clone of Hitler? TWO clones of Hitler!
by Dan Lokhorst April 1st, 2012 at 09:39 --replyFirst I was like “Say what?”, but then I was all “Heh, funny :-D!”.
I presume the intro was a reference to ‘A Beautiful Mind’?
by Space Jawa April 1st, 2012 at 13:05 --replyRIPSPLISTS!!!
by Joe H April 1st, 2012 at 16:35 --replyAH$HITTT!!
Please tell me that some of those panels were edited. They’re just so… :negativeman:
by Sparky April 1st, 2012 at 21:46 --replyThank you for reposting RIPSPLISTS!!! I had forgotten about that.
by Endless Mike April 2nd, 2012 at 08:43 --replyHow is Superman At World’s End not the finisher for this bunch?!
And having not read Dracula the Unconquered, I can’t decide whether that’s a playful swipe at Sims, or whether it turned out poorly.
by Ben April 2nd, 2012 at 12:16 --reply@Ben: Playful swipe. That’s why it’s last despite the alphabetical order.
by Gavok April 2nd, 2012 at 15:38 --replyThat Carnage Unleashed comic had one of the greatest plot points for the symbiotes ever conceived, and I will Internet Fight anyone who disagrees.
