  • Biollante: probalby, but 59 percent is considered a "blow out" in political terms, some people are on shaky ground right now, there was evne a conservative pollset that worked for Bush warning people that if Republicans are against things like gay marriage in the near future, they would endure catastrophic losses, I don't know if it's this political cycle, but the paradigm shift already happened a while ago

  • 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???

Hahaha thanks so much for scanning that.  That was great.  Love how the art is so dead on, gives it greater impact.  XD  I'm sure some fangirls will be happy.  Reggie's hamburgers/hotdogs joke made me LOL despite being so tasteless, and the bit with Jughead's nose poking Archie in the eye was great.  Too bad Pops is a homophobe, but I liked the piece of parody with what he said as well.  And Archie going from a womanizer to a mananizer was perfectly appropriate.  lol

There's an Archie parody ("Anarchie") in an issue of Anarchy Comics which is very entertaining. Also, of course, many Tijuana Bibles and similar...

Hello all (and by all - I am sort of referring to some of the older readers)  - not to exclude younger readers, but this topic is about....

Underground Comics! 

As a broad collector of comics (a "Panelogist" if you will :)  ) - I collect many different comics:  from Archie to Zap.  Recently, I picked-up an underground comix price guide and was surprised to see an Archie spoof in the back pages.  It is very adult in nature and features Veronica as a Vampire (of sorts...).  Additionally, I have the MAD Archive 2-volume set from some years back and it has an Archie spoof (Starchie) in it.

My question (and point of the thread) is - let's list any Archie parodies or spoofs we come across.

To respect the fact we have all ages here - maybe we can refrain from "detailed" descriptions, but I would certainly like to see what is out there.

The Price Guide I have is simply called "Underground Comix Price Guide" - it has a lady covered in comix on the front cover.  The Mad Archives are from DC.




...Frank , someone your age remembers NATIONAL LAMPOON magazine , right ????????? ??
( It was more " a magazine that had some comics stories " than " a comics magazine " so I tend to doubt that Comics.Com would cover it :-( . )
  Well , an issue about late 1972/early 1973 had a memorable Archie parody , in B&W...( I've mentioned it here before . )...

...It was called " Junkhead " :laugh: :angel: , by Dean Latimer and Ray Schultz , and it was in the October 1972 NatLamp .
  BTW , that Goodman Beaver strip was print-reprinted in one of the last few years' print issues of The Comics Journal ( Essentially finished now as a print mag/rag :'( :tickedoff: !! ) , when they added reprints of PD stuff every ish :smitten: !

I used to read MAD mags. when I was younger in the 90s and 2000s. They make fun of anything and everything. There is a MAD animated segment on Cartoon Network and I expect them to poke fun of the Archies, except to go by PG-rated guidelines. Underground comics captions and images are widely available on the internet.

In 1988, Marvel's comic book satire series "What The..." did an Archie spoof called "Four Pages with Starchie".

And one bit I just remembered.  In one of the very earliest magazine-sized MADs, there was a spoof called "Wrestling", and the good guy in the ring was one Kid Kindyouth, who looked exactly like Archie.  But his opponent, Offensive Herman, didn't look like Reggie or anyone else from Riverdale!

You can actually find a reprint of the HELP parody "Goodman Goes Playboy" in an issue of The Comics Journal from a few years back. I would give the issue number but my HUGGEEE box of TCJ mags is in storage. I'm sure a quick Google search could help you if you wanted to search it out.

And I never cared for Cherry (Poptart). Larry Weltz did some interesting underground work in the 70's, but Cherry in the 80's never did it for me.

Haven't read much Cherry, but the Cinnamon Poptart page I think was one of the funniest things I've seen in a comic book.  LOL.

"Bi-Curious? More like BI-FURIOUS!" Hee. Totally dead-on version of a typical "Archie" joke.
