The Best Stuff In Comics: 5-25-15

This is where we present to you, the other best stuff besides the best covers, best story arcs, and best ice cream soda.

This used to be a video series. It's not anymore. Each week we take a look at the other Best Stuff you might have missed...this week.

PLANET HULK #1

Best Catapult Ammo

You have to be careful when flying over the "Planet Hulk" region of Battleworld. They don't care much for the Thor Corps flying overhead and we get to see what they have to fire in a catapult.

Gross.

Best Hiding Place

When gladiator Captain America wished for a moment alone with Arcade, what better place to hide from the guards than inside the mouth of Devil Dinosaur?

ARCHIE VS PREDATOR #2

Best Reason Ninjas are More Believable Than Magic

Betty believes the reason the Predator is attacking is because of a curse. Veronica believes their attacker is a ninja. Why?

SECRET WARS: BATTLEWORLD #1

Best Explosion

We saw some of the fight between Punisher (with Doctor Strange's soul) in this week's Best Battles. Here's a pretty great-looking explosion from that battle. THOOM-BOOM!

TEEN TITANS SNEAK PEEK

Best Reason to Watch How You Talk if You’ve Hung Out With Batman Too Long

Looks like having a conversation with Tim Drake is kinda like those awkward moments when you're talking to someone via e-mail or while texting and it's hard to decipher the tone.

MOON KNIGHT #15

Best Accessories to Wear With a Fancy Suit

Moon Knight is a man with a few different looks. Lately he's been sporting a nice fancy white suit. How can you accessorize such a look? Since he was a former mercenary, Marc Spector can figure something out.

CONVERGENCE GREEN LANTERN CORPS #2

Best Green Arrow Impression

This seems like a given. I'm sure it's been done before, right? It has to have been done many many times. John Stewart does his best Green Arrow impression.

A-FORCE #1

Most Touching Goodbye

When you live on Battleworld, there are certain rules or laws that must be obeyed. If you break them, you get banished. In the first issue, we see a touching goodbye between Loki and Ms. America.

DEADPOOL’S SECRET SECRET WARS #1

Best Word Balloons Appreciation

Deadpool apparently likes balloons -- word balloons that is. He can appreciate a lengthy use of them since he's aware of being in a comic and all that stuff. He just needs to be careful how he expresses his appreciation.

Best Retro-Fight

With this series dealing with the other Secret Wars, we get a fight that brings back the nostalgia -- except with 100% more Deadpool in it.

CONVERGENCE JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #2

Best Worst Mr. Freeze Pun

We've pretty much heard all the horrible Mr. Freeze puns there are to hear. Just his appearance can almost make you cringe when you think about them. Poor Mr. Freeze, he's not even in this and the bad puns are still coming.

WOLVERINES #19

Best Sign Things Aren't Going Your Way When Fighting Mr. Sinister

The "Wolverines" have been having to deal with Mr. Sinister for a while now. They thought they were done with him but...

UNCANNY X-MEN #34

Best Awkward Moment During a Conversation

Mystique is having a talk with 'Cyclops.' Of course she's going to egg him on. First she takes on the appearance of Emma Frost to try to distract him. Then she goes for another familiar form.

'Cyclops' says he's just there to talk. So taking on Emma or Jean's form didn't have any affect. Mystique tries another.

No Caption Provided

Yup.

CONVERGENCE THE NEW TEEN TITANS #2

Best Looney Tunes Impression

It doesn't matter what universe or timeline Beast Boy is from. Some things, like his humor or demeanor, remains the same. While searching for a captured Cyborg, he takes on a certain form.

Best Kiss

One thing you can give Convergence credit for, we get some moments that are just right. It's too bad some of the stories didn't get a chance to really explore and revisit the characters from these timelines.

No Caption Provided

As a bonus, we get a little extra Dick Grayson butt shot.

LOKI: AGENT OF ASGARD #14

Best Reminder Why Odin Married Freyja

Odin and Freyja have been bickering quite a bit lately. Part of it is now who is better suited to rule Asgard. Of course with the incursion and Secret Wars coming, it's not too relevant. But Odin is reminded why he married her when she brings him to her secret stash of weapons.
