Friday Night Fights--Inborn Talent For Spacial (Sic) Geometry Style!!

It's man versus machine--and Chris Claremont vs letterers--in this week's Friday Night Fights!!

The X-Men are trapped in Arcade's Murderworld!! Nightcrawler is stuck in a room with crazy, run-away death dealing cars!! Cyclops shows up to help!!

Let's watch!!

Oh, Chris Claremont, you know how to over-explain anything!!

Spacebooger thinks that Tom Orzechowski deserved combat pay for having to fit all those words into tiny caption boxes...

Editor Roger Stern allowed the phrase "spacial geometry" to be used instead of "spatial geometry" in X-Men #124 (1979), by Claremont, John Byrne, Terry Austin, Glynis Wein, and the poor, beleaguered Orzechowski

Now is the time to go and vote for my fight. Why? Because Cyclops knows exactly where every one of you are, and can blast you (although you'll probably escape by the time Claremont finishes explaining it). So go and vote!!

Bruce Banner--Knee-Biter!!

So then there was that time Ben Grimm was trapped in Murderworld and had to fight robots based on every version of the Hulk ever...

The best part, of course, is Puny Banner Robot trying to get in on the action...

Tony Stark managed to get ahold of the island's robot works and sent Ben an army of his own to help out...

Pirate Thing vs Clown Hulk?!?! SOLD!!

From The Thing #3 (2006), by Dan Slott & Andrea DiVito. Man, that was a heck of a series...

These All Make More Sense Than Aliens Vs. Predators

To hell with Amalgamations, alternate worlds or other stuff...these are just straight up Marvel/DC crossovers I want to see:

**Nightwing Vs. The Circus Of Crime

**Killraven meets J'onn J'onzz

**Kid Eternity Vs. Thanos (and throw in Nekron, if you must)

**The Mandrill Vs. Wonder Woman

**Batman Vs. Arcade. I can't tell you badly I want to see this one...

Hmmm, this list is mostly DC heroes vs. Marvel villains. I'm not sure what to make of that...

**Black Bolt Vs. Sonar

**Ka-Zar vs. Grodd

If you don't want to see all of these, you are dead to me...

Synchronicity Is Beautiful

Do you know why I freaking love comic books??

Because by some ridiculous coincidence, this week saw new comics that simultaneously featured this:

And this:

Now, some of you may wonder which is cooler: a robotic T-Rex in a tophat & bowtie screaming "I...LIVE...AGAIN," or a big purple toy dinosaur brought to life by Franklin Richards eating Arcade. And the answer? Neither, because both are infinitely cool.

Thank you once again for saving my sanity, comics. And specifically, thank you Landry Walker and Marcio Takara in Incredibles #10, and thank you Jonathan Hickman, Neil Edwards and Andrew Currie in Fantastic Four #580. You guys rock my world. (And anybody who is not reading both of these comics is out of my will...)
