Phoebe hasn’t appeared in a while, so lest I break my contractual obligation, here’s some Phoebe. The joke, by the way, is one I borrowed (stole) from my wife, who hated this early stage of pregnancy. She sometimes joked about a shirt exactly like this one. Leave it to Phoebe to turn it into reality.
Check out the NEW VOTING INCENTIVE: GREEN LANTERN PUCK?
So one reader recently stated that he thought Puck should (for reasons unknown) be given a Green Lantern power ring, and I thought the idea was too ridiculous to pass up.
Though this particular incentive pic isn’t available through voting on TWC anymore, you can purchase the pic from the STORE! It’s only a buck for a set of five voting incentives! That’s what I call a deal!
Phoebe; best shirts on the world. 🙂
It’s not the shirt that makes the woman. It’s the woman that makes the shirt.
Touché. After all, who but a girl like Phoebe would wear shirts like that?
And no offense, but I think it took Phoebe a few years to finally hit her style stride. I mean, except for the expose bra straps, her look was kinda plain.
Then again, it WAS the 90s. :/
Hey, as long as she hits her stride eventually.
I meant in universe. Her original run look was kinda plain. Then again, what person in their late 20s/early 30s wears the same stuff we wore in college?
Oh, Shazam!
As in “Billy Batson and the magic of…”? Always seemed goofy to me that DC Comics had a superhero named Captain Marvel.
To be fair though, Captain Marvel was created BEFORE Marvel was called Marvel. He was also not originally a DC hero; he was created in 1939 for Fawcett Comics, which ceased publishing publishing Captain Marvel in 1953, because a “Cease and Desist” order from DC, due to copyright infringement, alleging that Captain Marvel was a copy of Superman. Even though Superman’s powers came to resemble Captain Marvel’s powers after a few years, and not vice versa.
However, Marvel managed to trademark their own Captain Marvel between 1953 and 1972, when the Fawcett Captain joined the DC cast. So, DC called his book “Shazam!”, being the word Billy Batson uses to transform.
Though, due to “Shazam!” being the name of his book for so long, his name was changed with the DC reboot TO Shazam. Which creates a problem, since he can’t say his own name in the books, since the word transforms him to and from his super powered identity. Regardless of what the DC writers say.
But I digress.
I have to admit that I’m nerdy enough to have known all that stuff. I sometimes just like to complain for the sake of complaining. But as long as we’re dealing with Shazam and not Kazam starring Shaq, I’m happy.
To be honest, I didn’t know any of that until I met a guy who was really in to Golden Age comics. I actually thought his name was “Shazam!” as well, and learned about how much Superman took from Captain Marvel, despite the original idea for Captain Marvel was heavily based on Superman. But when you consider that MOST of what we associate with Superman (the majority of the powers, the personality, etc), it’s amazing that Fawcett acquiesced to DC. Then again, they probably didn’t have the money to win the lawsuit.
Not only that, but there is also a Captain Marvel (Mar’vell) in the marvel universe
WAY too frickin’ confusing.
Greetings, Superheros! Stan Lee, here.
Now that the conundrums have to resolved over at brand Ecks, it’s time for the Mighty Marvel Bull-Pen to reveal our new champion; Captain DC!
Phoebe gets her digs back in her own way: Fashion!
It’s the only way she knows.
You may be nerdy, but only true alpha nerds know and can recite the full acronym that is shazams name.
I don’t. I should, because I’ve heard it recently.
Now what was it the characters in Misfile said about Empire Waists?
