Green Lantern and Black Bolt

 

STF's greatest villain is back for his 9th appearance!  Can our heroes trust him, or are they due for a double-cross?  The answers are just 60 cents away...

  1. I don't what this deal entails. But, I have to wonder if Blackbolt will be able to keep his word.

    1. I'll bet it has something to do with whatever happened to Green Arrow and the Inhumans after STF #4428.

    2. Yep! It was quite intentional. ;-D

    1. 60 cents? I go back farther than that, try the end of the 10 cent era and the beginning of the 12 centers.

    2. And I remember when they went down from 25 cents to 20 cents (excluding sales tax) just before the U.S. Bicentennial!

  3. OK, this Mr. Universe character has run rampant long enough.

    Get Squirrel Girl and Grant Morrison's Batman on his case!

  4. Frank Miller's Batman might be more advantageous.

    1. Using Miller's Batman would give Mr. U an ally, in the form of the Comics Code Authority.

    2. Hey! That could be Mr. Universe's next opponents; Lobo and the Comics Code Authoritarian!

    3. I'd rather see Mr. Universe vs. Lobo and Spaceman Spiff!

  5. How about Lobo vs. Spaceman Spiff and Zen, Intergalactic Ninja?

    1. We'll split the difference. All three of those guys teaming up against Mr. Universe! Does that sound do-able, Ross?

    2. Only if Stupendous Man someday helps out Forbush Man against the Comics Code Authoritarian.

  7. You mean, like Carol Ferris' Silver Scarab-like alter-ego, the Predator?

    1. Ugh! Please, don't remind us. That pre-Crisis story arc needlessly pushed the Freudian envelope.
