Each week we take a look at the other Best Stuff you might have missed in comics...this week.
There may be some teeny tiny spoilers below.
STAR WARS #13
Best Reminder Why You Should Always Let the Wookie Win
I'm sure you remember that one line in the original Star Wars movie about why you should let a Wookie win. They tend to pull out people's arms. Chewbacca gives us a nice reminder about how it would go.
BATMAN BEYOND #7
Best Batman Beyond Animated Series Intro Reference
How many times have you watched the intro to Batman Beyond. It was something different for its time. There's some themes that flash on the screen and we see them mentioned this week.
And here's the intro if you need a reminder.
GUARDIANS OF INFINITY #1
Strangest Ancient Language Discovered in a Marvel Comic
Drax and Rocket come across a hidden message.
The language looks like one used a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. It seems to have been flipped. The message isn't much. It's a matter of giving credit where credit is due. I'll let you figure out what the message is dealing with.
BATMAN AND ROBIN ETERNAL #9
Best Bat-Shark Repellent Reference
We all know that Batman always carries shark repellent in his utility belt. He's not the only one.
Best Reminder that Sometimes Dick Grayson can be a...Jerk
Dick Grayson and Harper Row have been trying to work together. He finds out she hasn't had the best life growing up and apologizes for being so tough on her.
DAREDEVIL #1
Strangest Place for an Office
Matt Murdock is back in New York City. He's now working for the District Attorney's office. They gave him his own office but, as he mentions, it's not like he needs a view.
TOTALLY AWESOME HULK #1
Best Reason to Make Sure Your Costume is Fireproof
Amadeus Cho is a Hulk now. After fighting a big turtle monster that could breath fire, he tries hitting on a lady at the beach. Guess he couldn't feel the draft that suddenly appeared.
Best Unnecessary Finishing Move
Later there's another monster to deal with. Looks like Cho and She-Hulk have it under control. Miles Morales wants to make sure the monster is truly out.
TEEN TITANS #14
Best Disappearing Act That Editorial Didn't Catch
The Teen Titans just finished a big fight. They're hanging out at Red Robin's place. You can see he's standing right there but suddenly the rest of the team has no idea where he went.
VISION #2
Best Reason Certainty is an Illusion
Can you ever really be certain about anything? Vision and his wife have a brief discussion on the idea.
ROBIN WAR #1
Best Descriptions of the Past Robins
Jason Todd, Tim Drake, and Damian Wayne were all Robins and are kind of like brothers. They have a great way of describing each other.
ALL-NEW X-MEN #1
Best RV For Superheroes
If you're on a team of heroes and one of the members is super-smart, what better way to travel than a RV that's impossibly larger on the inside and has a slushie machine?
SAVAGE DRAGON #209
Best Reminder Why Having a Baby with a Superhero May Not Be the Best Idea
We've heard about the possibilities of what could happen if Lois Lane and Superman tried having a kid. We get a good example of how dangerous that could be if not properly monitored.
CYBORG #5
Best Rowdy Roddy Piper Reference
Roddy Piper said a lot of things but it's great to see Cyborg quote him.
Best Thing We Always Want to see Cyborg Say
It's just something Cyborg has to say and always should.
ALL-NEW, ALL-DIFFERENT AVENGERS #2
Best Instance of Calling Someone a Jerk
There's been different times characters have been called out by others and called a jerk. Kamala Khan really emphasizes the point with Sam Alexander.
PAPER GIRLS #3
Strangest Vision After a Serious Injury
Something pretty bad happens to Erin. She then has a strange vision/dream that's pretty interesting.
HOWARD THE DUCK #2
Best Observation on the Silver Surfer
Without getting into the full details, there's strange female versions of Howard and Rocket Raccoon. They see Silver Surfer for the first time and say what we probably all think.
HARLEY'S LITTLE BLACK BOOK #1
Best Secret About Harley
There's one thing from this week's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer that got people excited--Wonder Woman. It turns out Harley Quinn's a big Wonder Woman fan as well.
Strangest Team-Up
It's pretty weird how Harley goes about making this happen and why she felt the need to knock out Wonder Woman and take her outfit off so she could wear it. You don't often see team-ups resulting in an exchange of costumes.
SPIDEY #1
Best (or Worst) Time to Take a Selfie
Spider-Man found himself fighting White Rabbit. After defeating her, he decides to take a pic and post it online as a lesson to other crooks. #busted
Best Observation on Doc Ock's Speech
Have you ever wondered why Doc Ock says some of the things he does? During a fight, Spidey asks him about some of the words he uses.
PREZ #6
Best Use of E-mail from a Cat
What if cats could use e-mail? What would they use it for? To send cat jokes, of course.
