This Week in Panels: Week 147
July 15th, 2012 by Gavok | Tags: Batman, before watchmen, demon knights, panels, uncanny x-force, x-menAh, it’s nice to finally be done with a shitty weekend of closing at work and being ready to enjoy a week off where I do little more than relax and– it’s Sunday and I have to do a ThWiP update, isn’t it. Goddamnit! Fine, let’s get this over with.
Before I get into that, just want to note that I have my very first improv comedy gig coming up this Saturday. I’ll be performing during Anybody Vs. Everybody: AN IMPROV SHOW FOR YOU at the Creek and the Cave in Long Island at 5:30 with my crew, McFlight Club.
This week my posse includes Jody, Was Taters and Space Jawa. I obviously read that Versus issue and even I have a hard time deciphering what’s going on in the panel Jody picked.

And there we go. I’m currently doing a lot less posting for the time being due to my work on an upcoming massive CHIKARA King of Trios series that will be starting up next month. I’m trying really hard not to have any delays this time around… though we’ll see how that lasts. One of the matches that blew everyone away in 2009 was from the second night of that year’s tournament. Check out the full match here of Kota Ibushi vs. El Generico vs. Jigsaw (now Rubix in TNA) vs. Nick Jackson. It’s rad.
I liked the Dark Avengers panel preceding the one you posted, where Satana spits out that one magic glyph or word or whathaveyou as Doom has her throttled, and he realizes what’s happening…
Love Parker & Walker’s Satana.
by Johnny B July 16th, 2012 at 09:49 --replyIs it weird that I find the book that’s up to #177 so bizarre? It and “The Walking Dead” are the only two that are in the triple-digits this week.
by Meekrat July 16th, 2012 at 12:43 --replyWalking Dead #100 disturbed me enough that I’ve dropped it.
I don’t expect that statement to dissuade as much as it entices others but it is true.
by West July 17th, 2012 at 04:10 --replyWell, that avx panel is clearly emma Phoenix upper cutting Thor. I think. There is definitely fire there. In all truth I liked karate Andrews portion of this book.
West – agreed, it was disturbing. I read it, reread it, then I walked away from all other comics till the evening. (I woke up early to buy my digi copy and read it. Ruined breakfast for me too.)
That said, it was a tough read and only joss whedon has given me that kind of feeling for losing a character.
I have a sense of ongoing dread now for that book, and I cannot wait to see where kirkman takes it.
by Jody July 18th, 2012 at 15:50 --replyI find Damian Wayne oh so amusing.
