They have gone to far.....

[killer_from_space-migratio]

I think I may have some sort of explanation for this.

 

Back in the 1960's, DC editor Julius Schwartz remarked that,

"Everytime we stick a gorilla on the cover it sells twice as much."

or something to that effect. Hence all the gorillas in the DC universe.

 

 

 

Kids like gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys.

It's a attempt at marketing to the kids.

 

i was going to say it seems like something D.C. would do

 

DC did this back in 1999

(Hi Luxx!)

I thought they were just making variant covers with marvel apes.... Like the Cable #6 Variant??? Are they actually making a series out of it?

 

Believe it or not . . .

 

 

On the stands Sept. 3rd

 

So is that Spider-Woman monkey a Skrull monkey?

[fastballspecial]

Marvels looking for another Zombie hit.

 

The banana cover with Wolverine is hilarious though.

 

All be passing just like I passed on Ultimate Spider-man and Zombies.

Shows how I can pick them right.

I'm going to buy it just because......

They went 'too far' a long time ago...they just continue to drift off into irrelevance.

Agreed, most of the new stuff is pedestrian. if anyone had talent it be real easy to become a real player in the comics industry(much like the Brits did in the 1980`s) but they don`t pay good. thankfully they have the movies or they be out of business along time ago.

Man, am I glad I don't buy Moderns anymore.

 

Even you hardcore fanboys must be embarrassed to see this sheit.

(Hi Luxx!)

what a mess this bloody coding is :frustrated:anyways, yes the ape's have been in it for a while, my earliest dayes to 1963 with some classic DoomPatrol covers... ape's with brains on display!!

[Annihilus]

Wow. That looks pretty damn retarded.

Yah...but those were ape characters.

 

not characters redone as apes.

 

this is silly.

 

unless there's a Grape Ape movie that Marvel has the rights to or something like that.

I think it's funny.... What's the problem???

[llll-migration]

I think it's funny.... What's the problem???

 

Yes, I agree. It's a bit of fun goofiness. No harm done.

The problem is it's hard to tell Marvel's intended goofiness from their regular goofiness.....

Man you're such a tool.I can't disagree that this is absolute garbage. To even compare it to Marvel Zombies is a frickin' joke. Pat

The trick is my six year old will love it and I have been trying to get him into comics for a year now.

Hiyo!

 

Why dont you just go completely ape on the fact that their is a varient in the series of Captain America and let me rated your... ape varient reaction?

 

P.S.

I wish I could finally complete my own run of Ed Brubaker's Captain America with no original owner besides the store I got them from in NM/M condition. Missing few issues though and plus, need a second job to support submitting them into CGC to be rated as hopefuly such.

 

What a world we live in, eh?

 

Long live my ever growing DC collection! Marvel... suck on the dust that DC leaves behind them for you to breath from!

 

P.S.S.

I urge you (Marvel-lites) to check out DC's current Superman/Batman #51 issue, because it is way more orignal/interesting take than Marvel's upcoming... im going ape's because we have no brain/ideals universe!
