Billed as the most badass scene ever.  Probably pretty dang close.

What really fascinates me is just how good an actor Christopher Lambert is, while he is technically legally blind.

And don't forget the speech impediment.

I only have a few GA books.  This is one of them.  Sadly, I passed on a couple mid-issue mid-grade Captain Americas for this one, because it was high grade.

Facepalm assist

And what's with this? Thriumph? What the hell is thriumph?

 I can't believe I never noticed this.It's a Canadian comic,I have to look up if there's an American counterpart.

Also,facepalm assist 

Edit-I checked gcd,and yep,originally put out in the U.S.A. In November 1949 then here in around January 1950.Same cover,I guess quality control was off at Quality comics...

I think Tims is now owned by Burger King that is owned by Brazilian firm 3G...support your local mom and pops,they taste better and are likely healthier anyways.

(Full disclosure,my partner brought some home and groadie imho)

yeah I try to support local shops, love going to St. Jacobs in Waterloo in the summer and the local farmers markets in the GTA area but even then I'm starting to see companies pop up at the local farmers markets...not many local places around anymore in the GTA sadly...

Yep,Kensingtons sold out,all the good small stuff gets picked up on Dragons Den...Good for the people,creators,makers I guess.Progress,c'est la vie.

Most of the Byward Market sellers aren't growers anymore..just distributors,often times things imported from lands far far away

yeah exactly in the farmers market's a lot of them started off growing but then got into the supply chains and became distributors and sometimes you might be luck to get their own locally produced fruits or veggies but often now they usually get bigger and dive into distributions channels and use their names to help develop the model... 

I find the local stuff though from the smaller farms much better tasting and much bigger the zucchini's some of them grow... wow...   but true story...

Pervert!

But yeah,some of the zuchs I see,just from my friends gardens...whoah! They don't seem to get the mamoths in the grocers like that.
