This Week in Panels: Week 174
January 21st, 2013 by Gavok | Tags: Batman, demon knights, hulk, panelsHey, folks! It’s time again for This Week in Panels. Time to take the comics that Gaijin Dan, Jody, Was Taters and Space Jawa and I have read this week and condense them into a panel each. How would we describe these comics to the unfamiliar? Maybe it’s Spider-Woman making a plea for the Hulk’s humanity. Maybe it’s a group of Demon Knights seeing the one non-immortal member of their team after three decades of being apart. Maybe it’s a horse being on fire. Or maybe it’s a shirtless dude with a face drawn on his belly. I don’t know. Either way, it’s fun.
Let’s get it on.

Goodbye, Frankenstein. Your series was awesome to the end.
Now some mashup fun.
First question from Young Hank McCoy: “Ummm . . . what’s the deal with the floating lima bean?”
Is that Hinata? I’ve heard stuff about the manga, and it seems too odd to me.
Holy shit . . . flaming horse. Horse looks surprised by this development.

by Zach January 21st, 2013 at 13:48 --reply@Jason: Yes. Meek Hinata is slapping Naruto. I won’t spoil the reason, but I figured it’d be the panel most likely to get the attention of people familiar with the series.
