This used to be a VIDEO FEATUREfor over one hundred episodes. We've changed the format to a text version as most seem to prefer it this way. And don't forget to take the poll at the end.

Each week we take a look at the other Best Stuff you might have missed...this week.

DEADPOOL #41

Best Possible Street Fighter Cameo

Deadpool's been in a little funk since becoming inverted and then reverted to his former self. He decided to accept a mission and one of the guys in charge has a hairstyle very similar to Guile from the Street Fighter games.

SPIDER-MAN 2099 #8

Best Lesson in Vocabulary

Spider-Man 2099 and Lady Spider need a place to go to work on a big item they acquired. They travel back to her time. Unfortunately, word gets to Norman Osborn and the two Spiders are attacked by the Six Men of Sinestry. Lady Spider tries informing them about the name they chose.

BATMAN #38

Best "You Should See The Other Guy" Moment

Jim Gordon needs to invest in some better locks. This is the second time Joker has made his way into his home to catch him off guard. Last issue Jim shot Joker but it seemed Joker got better real fast and left something behind with Jim before leaving.

Ouch.

Best Bathing Suit This Week

It also can be labeled as the Creepiest bathing suit this week. F

For some reason, Joker decided to go out for a swim. He's wearing an old-timey swimming suit. Looks really really creepy. Not a sight you'd want to see coming your way.

NOVA #26

Best Way to Dodge the Fact You Revealed Your Name to a Super-Powered Serial Killer

During Axis, heroes and villains were inverted. That means heroes turned into villains and vice versa. Sam Alexander spent some time working with Carnage, who had become a bit of a hero. Sam made the mistake of revealing his real name and now Cletus Kasady has come to visit.

HARLEY QUINN #14

Best Depiction of a Rough Morning

Harley lives a strange life. In this issue, we get a glimpse of what it's like when she wakes up. The one page alone is pretty revealing.

No Caption Provided

UNCANNY AVENGERS #1

Best Willy Wonka Reference

If you've ever seen the movie, and I'm assuming you have, you know the song. (HERE'S a version I really like).

No Caption Provided

THE MULTIVERSITY GUIDEBOOK

Best Cutest Version of Batman

Who doesn't want to see a cute version of Batman?

No Caption Provided

THOR #4

Best Reason Not to Tap Thor on the Chest with Mjolnir

ThorOdinson finally confronts the new wielder of Mjolnir. Obviously he's not too happy. Then he gets tapped on the chest. That's going to make things even worse.

No Caption Provided

Best Kiss Between Two Characters With the Same Name

So Thor isn't Thor anymore? The new character is Thor? Why are they kissing? It's not because of what you might think (if you haven't read the issue). There is a reason. You can see the former Thor is a little surprised.

No Caption Provided

SPIDER-MAN AND THE X-MEN #2

Best Creepy Attempt at a Kiss

Sometimes you just need to say no.

No Caption Provided

Sauron is attempting to kiss Shark-Girl.

Ew.

DEATHSTROKE #4

Best Way to Ride a Train

Let's make it clear, we do not condone, encourage, or support riding trains this way. You have to either have superpowers or be a bit unbalanced in the head. But look at how much fun Harley is having.

No Caption Provided

PUNKS: THE COMIC #4

Best Creator Cameo

AKA: Best Panel Featuring a Frustrated Joshua Hale Fialkov on the Phone, While Advertising THE BUNKER.

No Caption Provided

BATMAN ETERNAL #43

Best Reason to Think About What Kinds of Pics You Post on Facebook

Red Robin and Bluebird are talking about Stephanie Brown. Tim grabbed some pics off her Facebook page. Harper can't help but judge.

No Caption Provided

SECRET AVENGERS #12

Best Reason Not to Text While Drunk

M.O.D.O.K. has some explaining to do. Actually, that's exactly what he's doing. He's laying it all out for Hawkeye and Agent Coulson. We find out how Deadpool recently got involved in the series a few issues back.

No Caption Provided

There was absolutely no way I could not post a pic of drunk M.O.D.O.K. this week.

Best Poll of the Week

Last week the poll if you ever told someone "come with you if they want to live" in a Terminator-type voice. You can check out the rest of the results HERE.

This week, we want you to come clean about your duck-facing urges.

(Note: if you get a "session expired" notice, refresh the page).

That's all I came up with this week. Let us know in the comments below what other Best Stuff you dug this past week. Thanks to @djfanco, Mat Elfring, and Gregg Katzman. If you want to participate or felt we missed some other Best Stuff, you can @reply me on Twitter at @GManFromHeck by Fridays using the hashtag #BestStuffInComics and I'll think you're pretty groovy.

Let us know what you think of this format. Answer the poll question. Be sure to always look for the best stuff and try to use the duck-face only when fully required..

Dautermann's art on Thor was gorgeous. So was Acuña's on Uncanny Avengers.

Haven't read Batman yet but I am immensely looking forward to it. The writing on Deathstroke actually looks pretty good. Gonna have to pick up that issue.

Odinson thought mabye she was his mother, so, she proves it otherwise. It was weird, I love this book a lot, but that scene was a bit wackadoodle.

Also, is that Portuguese up there, why do shark-men speak Portuguese ...

Calm thyself down! (I love that line)

@indomitableregal:

As for the Thor on Thor action I think it was to prove she wasn't Thor's Mum. I can't see any problems with it, I'm constantly trying to smooch people with the same name as me!

(Ok, no I'm not)

C'mon! Try it you just have to believe!

@wheatstalker: I don't think there are "shark-men" in marvel, but only one Shark-Girl :) She is a young [teen ager?] mutant prom Brazil, she can shapechange her form from human to a sort of "were-shark" hybrid, and she usually prefer to stay in hybrid form at school :)

http://www.comicvine.com/shark-girl/4005-86424/

So I think that may be Brazilian and not Portuguese, but I don't speak neither of them, so maybe american writer had a slight mistake :)

Based on the text in that bubble you can't tell whether it's Portuguese or Brazilian. It's like British- & American English. Although the grammatical and phonological differences between Portuguese & Brazilian-Portuguese are slightly bigger than between BE and AE, the written languages are very similar, and both people, if educated, can still understand each other fairly well without much difficulty.

It says "Mother of God, please, NO!" and the writer has done it right except for missing two tilde marks (~). Perhaps that's a mistake by the letterer. Anyhow, it's as weird as it gets when it comes to kisses in comic books (and the letterer shall be excused for not being able to keeping focused right there).

@thatlyn_yoaeg_ill_rymmin:It's portuguese, I live in Brazil and it's portuguese, but there's a difference between portuguese from portugal and our portuguese. For example fila in PT-BR means Queue area in English and bicha means homossexual (in a unsophisticated way). In PT-PT bicha means Queue area in English. And it's hard to people from Portugal understand completely some people from Brazil, most from Northeast. I live in the interior of the State of São Paulo and sometimes I can't understand what some people of Brazil's Northeast say because it's too fast and they use some different words than we do.

The new Thor is clearly human based upon her thoughts, versus her Asgardian spoken dialogue.

She is a mystery Earth female (spoiler ahead) mostly likely Roz Solomon, a SHIELD agent who Thor has been pursuing romantically who is able to wield the Mjolnir after the original Thor found himself unworthy due to a Careless Whisper compliments of Jake Fury, thus making her the new Thor. Thor is now considered simply Odinson, according to Aaron et al.

@tg_54: No Thor's sister is Angela and Marvel released a new avengers team couple of months ago showing Angela and she Thor standing next to each other so the new she Thor is not a relative of Thor or even a Asgardian most likely Roz Solomon or Jane Foster .
