The 4th Wall Four

 

This is a team concept that has been discussed in the comments and I thought that is was time to put it together.  The first three members of this group were easy to pick, but there is a wide choice of funny animal characters that are known to talk straight to the audience.  Bugs Bunny was the one that made the biggest impression on me, so he got the nod.

Ambush Bug previously met She-Hulk in STF #3928, and Deadpool in STF #285...

On the back of boxes of Post Pebbles cereal, Bugs Bunny and other Looney Tunes characters were shown cosplaying Flintststone s characters.

Let me guess: their arch-enemy is Foxbat.

Hmmmmm! Could be. :-)

Love the fact that AB is reading this very comic.

Bugs’ inclusion also makes sense, considering how 2/4 of the team are Marvel/Disney properties, and since DC, a WB subsidiary, publishes Looney Tunes comics, Bugs sort-of counts as a DC character. (Otherwise, if another superhero character was warranted, Freakazoid could fill the role.)

This would be a good team for member rotations. Badger could be fun.

Never read She Hulk although I see her a lot in other comics - does she do the 4th wall stuff while in shower :D

Love that AB is diving into this exact comic!

I don't know about Badger, but (as Anon@10:19 points out) Freakazoid would make for a good "non-Big Two" fifth member.

There's still uncertainty about whether there will be a Season 2 for She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, but if there is one I hope we get to see Deadpool as a client. ("Don't worry, folks. I know better than to use an F-bomb here. Remember 'Once Upon a Deadpool'?")

@Bob Greenwade: Mercifully, no.

I'd rather see Keyan Farlander vs. Maarek Stele.

I remember seeing a Superman cover of him in a barber chair reading the Superman comic that had him posed the same way. LOVED IT!!
This series could get as hot as Blazing Saddles' end!!! What a book!

It was a Jimmy Olsen #110.

Yes, I was going to nominate a Superman family member of some kind as they have done this on multiple coves over the years. I love an old BA Flash cover where he warns viewers of what's inside. Good times.

I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of Animal Man.

Carycomic said...

He had an unbreakable appointment with Jimmy Olsen's barber for a much-needed "hare" cut.

Carycomic said...

P.S.---wouldn't it be funny if that same comic book was being read by Mickey Mouse and Howard The Duck from STF #1552? ;-)

Cover of the month!

Deadpool would also treat the group to some cherrychongas, courtesy of another fourth-wall breaking friend of his who loves to throw parties. Her initials for her full name are P. D. P.
