  • 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

  • PTF: It's a magic hammer. It doesn't have to make sense. :)

  • 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???

Hey I just read that story hadn't realized it was redrawn...

Maybe the updating of Mrs A is better than I thought, maybe its an Archie that I read a million times and I'm to atttached to the first Archie comics I owned. Maybe messing with Bob Bolling art bugged me, more then the updating, maybe I'm a grumpy old man and Archie comics does know what they are doing... 

Naw, even Archie makes mistakes, I heard one of the biggest of recent years was listening to people asking for a SHIELD tpb they still have a ton of them in their warehouse....

I think it's funny that they feel the need to update Mrs. Andrews but they kept Archie's dated wardrobe the same. It's jarring seeing the redrawn Mrs.A next to the original Mr.A.

It's funny.  For all of the PC messages that Archie comics espouses these days, they can't seem to accept that a middle aged woman just might be allowed to have some gray hair and gain a little weight.

Yeah, tell me about it. And this is the same PC Archie that introduced Brigitte, the token fat teenager that never tries to lose weight.

My gosh, Archie Co. is being so nice to its old artists and their work. ::)

All for today's little readers who couldn't care less.

And BTW, what middle-aged woman wants to be fat and graying? ;D

At times I have to wonder if anyone ever proofreads these "updates" as some are too obvious to those of us who are dedicated fans...

Betty mentioning an iPod in a comic with 1950s or 1960s artwork.
Veronica mentioning Fergie in a pinup with 1960s artwork.
A mention of "21th" century items.

The updated pinup particularly annoys me because I certainly wouldn't consider Fergie a positive role model for kids.
