I saw Joss Whedons “The Avengers” last week. Did I like it? Let me just say, I may end up marrying it. Yes, movie-to-man marriages are highly controversial in many ways, but love always finds a way. Keep in mind though, that nothing is decided as of yet. For one thing I want to keep my options open for Nolans forthcoming “The Dark Knight Rises“. Everybody knows you can only marry two or three movies in a lifetime. I’ve already exceeded this limit by at least 20 or 30. Safe to say that’s way too many and people are starting to talk.
Meanwhile fellow web-cartoonist – the exceedingly talented Mr. Brendan Boughen – suggested this might be a good time to cash in on the temporary electric buzz surrounding the Avengers by featuring them in a comic ( this was by the way only his exact words in opposite land). Of course I had no patience for such ideas at the time. Unfortunately I suffered a minor black-out and woke up a week later with this comic all done. What happened?
On a serious note, when the special edition Blu-ray of the comic comes out, you will hear the commentator track state that the original title was “Caught in a trap I can’t walk out Because I love you too much baby “. This is a downright lie!
When you’re done reading Anyone for Rhubarb? I highly recommend checking aforementioned Brendan Boughens work out on Cartoons by Jim. http://cartoonsbyjim.com/ It’s not very funny …in opposite land!





I like how when Red Skull is done, they’ll all have red skulls.
Could this be the sinister purpose behind Red Skulls plan!? He truly is an evil mastermind:)
I just love how utterly confused the Red skull looks.
I don’t think this was at all how he imagined things would play out:)
I think Hollywood could learn a thing or two from you Christian! As horrified as I am about this strip, I have to admit it’s a keeper!
This could very well be part of the plot for The Avengers 2. Fingers crossed!… I’m glad you liked the comic despite the horrificness of it all:)
That’s some nice suspension of expectations there
Thanks. People tied down on assembly lines heading for giant saws will do that I guess
I n the bottom left corner Captain America’s mask appears to still be in one piece. What gives?
Haha…You’re right, it does seem rather weird. I’m hoping some kind of wild conspiracy-theory will spring from this.
Somebody’s going to have to figure out how Captain America didn’t die!
Haha…They have done it before, hopefully they can do it again. I’m thinking doppelgänger, alternate dimension or perhaps even a time-altering device – could be a magical top-hat of sorts.
for some reason the last few comics only load halfway, even if I hit reload a bunch of times.It always stops at the same place. so I can only read half of this one. I started at the beginning and am working my way to the present comics.. but it looks like Im going to miss some.. you might want to ck and see if its on your side?
Thanks for the heads up. I’m not detecting any problems on my side though. If anybody else is experiencing something similar please let me know.
