Okay, Batman, that’s enough. Come along now, and stop making bad jokes that Green Lantern himself won’t make.

Thanks for making this, Marco!

Welcome, DCnU: Justice League #1 Roundtable Review

by on Sep.01, 2011, under DC, Reviews

This is it: the DC Universe as we knew it since 1985 (or at least 2007, if you’re really pendantic) has come to an end. In its place is a brave new world known as the DCnU – where DC starts over with a blank slate, and where everything can be told anew in a different light. 2011 marks a new era for DC, and this is where it begins: Justice League #1. Comicgasm editors Ade and RJ tell you what they think of the very first comic of the brand-new DC Universe.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

Ade: So after yesterday’s Flashpoint #5 review where we saw how the DC universe ended and it’s all BARRY ALLEN’S FAULT, THAT ASSHOLE, let’s take a look at Justice League #1. DC marketed this issue as a good jumping-on point for people who find that years of continuity too confusing for casual fans, and the comic book meant to be less confusing for newbies starts… in the middle of a chase scene. This does not bode well for the comic that introduces the new universe to new and old fans alike.

RJ: They started with a classic Green Lantern and Batman can’t work with each other bit. It had a promising start; Hal showing off constructs left and right, being too cocky for his own good while setting up Batman as an urban legend. Johns can at least write Jordan well. But let’s not have him go anywhere near any of the Bat-family anytime soon.

Ade: I swear, when I was reading Batman’s lines, I seriously thought that this was the same Batman in All-Star Batman and Robin. It doesn’t help that Jim Lee’s doing the art, too.

RJ: Let it be known that while we do not dislike All-Star Batman and Robin, we do think that it’s a stupid book.

Ade: … dude, I HATE All-Star Batman and Robin.

RJ: But it’s hilariously stupid! Plus it gave us the “Goddamn Batman” scene. (continue reading…)

Blue and Gold Filler: Chocos!

by on Nov.02, 2009, under DC, filler, Story Time

We interrupt your regularly scheduled filler for a super special B&G filler! Blue Beetle and Booster Gold – best comic book couple duo ever! Yes, B&G is totally more fabulous than B&R!

THIS IS PROOF, PEOPLEbng not gay

And coz I love you guys, I’m posting a whole 22-page comic book in this here filler post! Story Time! From the pages of Martian Manhunter #24, we go down memory lane to the 1990′s incarnation of the Justice League. Most people in the DCU remember the 90′s JLI/JLE as the embarrassing era of the League, and they’re probably right. But most old fans would agree with me when I say that the JLI/JLE is the most amusing era of the league. We will never forgive DC for giving us Identity Crisis. Never.

Warning: This post eats dial-up users, click at your own risk.

Comicgasm facts!

by on Sep.24, 2009, under Bloggy stuff, Blogpeoples, filler, Local, MISC, Real Life stuff, WTF

Apparently we made it into the finals of the Philippine Blog Awards 2009 <– Click here to see us in the list!

While I honestly don’t EXPECT us to win, I do HOPE!

Such is me in my blue lantern shirt:

6140_1181680694802_1011746117_30581594_141387_n

But hope isn’t enough of course! Comicgasm would have never made it into the finals if it weren’t for us being awesome in one way or another. We sure ain’t gonna win if we just sit back and scratch our balls while staring at the sky as w usually do. Sure we delay posts 80% of the time – but really, what made us into the finals I wonder?

So I sought to describe Comicgasm and I learned that we are awesome because of a few things that we are. Some of these are essential truths that make up the fabric of the universe itself and cannot be defied! Deny them at your own cost.

COMICGASM FACTS:

-The name of Comicgasm was derived from two words: comics and orgasm. Therefore, whenever we post, someone has an orgasm.

-Contrary to popular belief, there is explicit nudity & visual sex scenes in DC, Marvel & Archie comics. Comicgasm simply chooses to keep those pages to ourselves. (See Justice League: Cry for Justice #2 and Archie #601)

- It is a well known fact that only three organisms in the world have pleasure when they have sex: Man, dolphins & Comicgasm.

- When Darkseid hits you with his Omega ray, you don’t die. You just Comicgasm.

- Chuck Norris counted to infinity twice – but only because he was trying to measure the amount of testosterone in Comicgasm.

- Superboy-Prime thought Comicgasm was stupid. Therefore the Legion of Three Worlds exists.

- DC & Marvel once disapproved a superhero idea inspired by Comicgasm’s awesome claiming the character was too powerful. Instead it was turned into a joke. We now know this as the Chuck Norris Facts.

- The modern Marvel comic book series no longer mentions the Infinity Gems. This is because Comicgasm has paid Marvel not to reveal where we get our awesome.

- Disney bought Marvel so they can finally have enough money to pay Comicgasm for Walt Disney’s cryogenically frozen body.

- The Nick Fury character was based on Samuel L. Jackson. The Samuel L. Jackson character was based on Comicgasm.

- The Green Lanterns recite an oath from the guardians. The Guardians recite an oath from Comicgasm.

- Comicgasm confronts the Guardians of the Universe with a Poke’ball and shouts “I choose you!”

- A member of Comicgasm has in fact met, sat down and chatted with Neil Gaiman – without knowing who he was. (and got him addicted to calamansi juice – see proof here.)

- When Alan Moore once got writer’s block in coming up with a character for his novel, he read Comicgasm. Inspired he created Dr. Manhattan.

- Comicgasm designed the costumes of Power Girl & Black Canary and hates the design of Wonder Woman’s costume – saying it ain’t revealing enough.

- When the Hulk gets angry, he gets bigger. When Comicgasm gets horny, he gets BIGGER.

- Comicgasm was supposed to be superhero – but we refused to wear spandex. Not because we don’t like spandex, but because we ALWAYS have a hard-on.

- Comicgasm won a hard-on contest with The Thing.

- Comicgasm won a staring contest with Daredevil.

- Comicgasm has retractable claws but no healing factor. We don’t need it. We like bleeding awesome.

- Comicgasm owns Dominic Ochoa’s long lost twin brother.

AND THAT’S IT. I finally know what lead us to this place so far!

If you have any more Comicgasm facts, pls pls COMMENT! XD
