I've compiled a list of the best, the worst, and the weirdest shark battles of the 20th century. Come dive in!

@lavidaenvinetas I still remember the Fantastic Four recruiting Triton to swim through space. Him explaining that space wasn't all that different from the ocean was so cool.

@the_snickman It's important that Shiloh be the one who did that, because Shiloh is a human. That the human Mister Miracle did something that the New God one didn't implies that humans will one day become the 5th World.

@the_snickman I would sooner compare Scott to Daniel, with Nebuchadnezzar as Darkseid and the lions' den as a death trap, but even Daniel isn't a very good comparison.

It's still a lot better than Jesus, though.

@SciFiArchives I love spaceships that look like cigar-shaped ocean liners.

@vrkurosawa @EverythingDCU_ It's too bad that you're right. Orion is evil, and Mister Miracle chooses the Matrix over reality. It's a slap in the face to everything Kirby wanted those characters to stand for.

[Days of Fiction Past @IAmCharlesCole]

@EverythingDCU_ This is a horrible way to introduce the New Gods to a new audience. Orion chooses hate over love, Mister Miracle chooses lies over truth, and Darksied has the personality of a stone wall. It's awful. Jack Kirby would've been disgusted.

@the_snickman @CcTom272 The problem I have here is that High Father was clearly not meant to be God. He's a patriach. He starts off as a judge like Gideon but trades the sword for a staff and becomes a priest like Gideon.

It's important to his character that he doesn't have all the answers.

@hutchdraws It's nifty how the bottom part of the Terror Drome has rooms for small-scale brawls while the top part is wide open for every action figure in the collection to have a free-for-all like it's pro wrestling.

GI Joe box art should have its own room in the Smithsonian. Pure American Overdrive 🇺🇸

@offfhandway I love Seven, but his pupils have always looked really strange to me. I prefer Ultras not having them.

@Peposed I'm looking forward to reading this! I remember watching the Herculoids meet Space Ghost for the first time as a kid in the Council of Doom multiparter. I think he also met Moby Dick and Shazzan in the same story.

THE WAR OF THE WORLDS BEGINS NOW!

When tragedy strikes the planet Amzot, Space Ghost must defend the Galactic Federation from the cosmic gladiator Zandor and his army of legendary monsters!

Don't miss SPACE GHOST VS. THE HERCULOIDS, from me and Jonathan Lau this September!

[Comic Book Addicts @comicbookaddt]

Looking forward to this from @Peposed Space Ghost VS. The Herculoids

@RaxRazing @dormant000 I would love an archtype built around games from the early manga.

[Days of Fiction Past @IAmCharlesCole]

@dormant000 It's fascinating to imagine what Yu-Gi-Oh would've been like if it focused on Digimon over Magic and Mon-Colle. That little guy might've taken the place of Kuriboh.
