Oh hi guys. Remember the 90′s?

I honestly don’t know what spells the 90′s more than EXTREME! POUCHES! OMG BULGING! MUSCLES! BIG! GUNS! LITTLE! FEET! FLUFFY! HAIR! ROB LIEFELD! (continue reading…)

Yes, the internet is buzzing with all sorts of praise for Geoff Johns’ epic masterpiece, Blackest Night. Imagine the amount of money DC has been raking in. So it’s really so surprise that Marvel is going to get into the act as well.

Blackest Night Captain America! Holy shit! The solicit for this issue reads:

Blackest Night: Captain America #1 of 3

Written by ED BRUBAKER
Pencils by ROB LIEFELD
Cover by theblast
50/50 Cover by ALEX ROSS

The Blackest Night proves to be more powerful than we thought as it starts its Secret Invasion of Earth 616… also known as the Marvel Universe! Bucky has survived his first major trial as the new Captain America, but what happens when he finally confronts his predecessor? Join the new Captain America, Iron Man and Nick Fury as they battle Steve Rogers to the DEATH!

32 PGS./Parental Advisory …$3.99

Seriously, this is mind-blowing bullshit.

Also, if you haven’t figured it out yet, this is a spoof by the always-awesome theblast on Tumblr. But it’s so awesome we can only wish it was true. Also, I don’t know which comics to review this week since Fiel has dibs on GL and RJ’s MIA and I dunno what he wants to review. And I’m lazy to write my MCC post.

But James Robinson comes up with this page, taken from the preview of Justice League: Cry For Justice #2:

And I’m sold. Issue one was all melodramatic fluff with weird dialogue (come on, do people in real life really speak the way Robinson writes?), but this bit of humor redeemed it for me and I’m willing to give it another try.

And really, what the world needs right now is more comics chronicling Hal Jordan’s prowess. That’s a Flash Fact.

… Jeph Loeb writes this majestic piece of dialogue.
