  • Steveinthecity: When Thor pulls the hammer back to throw, his momentum stops. He has always been able to float or hover once airborne, and he'll remain until the hammer comes back to him.  I guess the winds keep him aloft.

  • Biollante: ok so shouldn't Joe Quesada know that? lol  It made him look a bit stupid imo.
    May 21, 2012, 07:57:37 AM
  • Jabroniville: Yeah, that's odd- Thor usually has the Hammer out in front. Though I don't think it's ever explained how he can throw it while in mid-flight and not just plummet like a goof. I wish artists would stop having him do things like that :)
    May 21, 2012, 07:23:13 AM
  • Steveinthecity: @Biolante:  Thor uses the hammer to fly. He can throw his hammer during flight and float in one spot until the hammer returns to him. Don't know what Joe Q. was thinking there. I've never seen Thor fly on his own.

  • Biollante: Joe Quesada was drawing Thor on some Disney promo, and he drew him flying with his hammer on his side, now I'm not a Thor junkie, but isn't that actualy inaccurate, doesn't he fly by being dragged by his hammer???

  • Biollante: I'm just glad he's giving back to his fans by revisiting Blade Runner and Alien with Prometheus, I'm sure he's going to deliver too, his legacy as a film maker is on the line since those are his more iconic films

  • Biollante: aesthetics*
    May 20, 2012, 10:58:08 AM
  • Biollante: gonna be hard for anyting to catch up, Ridley Scott is pretty much the top of dark visual design imo, and he drew a lot from Moebius for that film, most fillm makers are not really connected to aestheticas of good fantasy film making in the same way

Archie Comics Boys vs girls hockey
« on: January 24, 2012, 05:23:32 PM »
In a comic I saw, I remember Betty, Veronica, Ethel, and Midge play hockey against Archie, Jughead, Moose, and Reggie. What comic was it? Can anyone tell me what it is?

Were they playing hockey with brooms for a charity?

That's unfortunate.  I want to see Betty and Veronica break Archie's face.   :angel:

All I remember is that it was penciled by Bob Bolling.  I can try to find it, but that would involve searching through literally tens of thousands of stories in my collection.

I know there was one with the classic "Sexist Males Storyline", where the girls' gym class was getting less money from the school, and so they challenged the boys to a contest. The boys were being unusually sexist, as is the norm for these kinds of stories, and the girls decided on a "Broom Hockey" match, because "who knows more about brooms than A GIRL!" The girls beat the boys and earned a fair share of the school's money, and Ethel "swept Jughead off his feet" in the end. Is that the same story everyone remembers?

Just once, I'd like to see a story where the men just CRUSH the women in a contest like that. Just to be different :). I know the boys occasionally got small victories (Jughead once won a cooking contest after Betty triumphantly won the Bucking Bronco contest, so both groups were tied), but it's such a default here to have the males be sexist and then lose with great embarassment. In comics and in cartoons.

Well, then find the comic with the classic "Sexist Males Storyline" and contact me, okay?

Fine, don't but so curt with everyone :P.

Luckily I actually wrote down the issue in my own personal "Archives" so that I don't have to go looking for every good story I've read.

Here I have it:
Archie's Pals & Gals #17- Archie offends the Prince at Ronnie's. Archie photographs pets (including Wendy's Tarantula). Midge's diet. Ron & Nancy break up Chuck & Archie team. Broom hockey (boys vs. girls). Jughead's Yo-Yos (Reggie gets kicked in the butt at the end). Arch & Ron get ludicrously hot & heavy. (I'm pretty sure that's the one where it looks they're totally about to break the Comics Code in one panel- edit: just re-read it, and yeah, it's one of those oddly-drawn late-80s strips, and Reggie interrupts Arch & Ron on the sofa with a phone call, and Archie goes "now where were we? Oh yeah MMMMMM" and basically throws Ronnie back onto the sofa with a kiss)

Yep, that's the one.  :)

Completely agreed.   :angel:
