  • Steveinthecity: I wonder why it's always readers that catch mistakes with art, powers, plots, continuity, uniforms, etc. and not the creators and editors?  I hope they're not secretly laughing at us. ;)

  • 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

    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

I THOUGHT "brunet" means brown-haired.

But no, I am so WRONG.

Brunet actually means a dark-haired MALE!!! (Like Reggie, of course!)

My apologizes. :embarassed:

That's news to me. I have always understood Brunette to mean a brown haired person, either male or female. You better check again...I think you're still considered a brunette. My dictionary says the origin of the word is French and BRUNET means brown...also there is male and female versions of the word...
Brunette: female...Brunet: male.

Brunette is female, and brunet is male.

Just like blonde is female, and blond is male.

If blond is male then why do I see in the Archie comics sometimes Betty being refered to as a blond not a blonde? Maybe I'm misreading

You're asking this regarding a company that frequently misspells you're as your?
