The Best Stuff In Comics: 3-23-15

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.

HULK #13

Best Name for a Horse

Deadpool's riding on a horse. We can only assume he gave it this name. Why this name? It's Deadpool. What further reason would he need?

SUPERMAN #39

Best Reasons Not to Want Super Taste Buds

We all know Superman does pretty much everything in a super-fashion. You would think being Superman might be cool but imagine having super-taste buds and eating something like a hot dog...

ALL-NEW CAPTAIN AMERICA #5

Best Reason Not to Trust a Mercenary

This should be so obvious. If you employ a mercenary, it's obviously they only care about one thing--cash. So if you're paying them a crazy amount to do something, there's always the chance someone might come along and offer to pay them more to do something opposite. Taskmaster shows where his loyalties, or lack of them, lie.

BATGIRL: ENDGAME

Best Use of an Emoticon

This was a bit of a 'silent issue.' When executed properly, they can be pretty clever. In the midst of Joker's attack against Gotham City, we see what Batgirl is thinking when her equipment doesn't work quite like she hoped.

Best Smile

Sometimes, no matter how rough things get, the solution is to simply smile, even if you're surrounded by a bunch of crazy people. Hmmm...sounds like a place we all know.

ALL-NEW X-MEN #39

Best Reason to Master Mathematics

It's real easy to get the wrong idea here. What we need to take away from this is, there isn't a good reason to hate Mathematics. You must overcome your hatred and fears of what many consider the unknown. Once you embrace and master the beauty of Mathematics, you will be able to overcome many obstacles. Yes, I taught Mathematics for many years.

Star-Lord and Drax need to appreciate what Math can do for you. After all, Mathematics all makes sense. It all adds up...

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #16.1

Best Classy Way to Say an Old Phrase

You may have heard the expressions that goes something like "Opinions are just like ___, everyone has one." Spider-Man comes up with a classier way to phrase it when talking to Tombstone.

Just another reason to expand your vocabulary. Don't rely on profanity.

THE PUNISHER #16

Best Ad on a Taxi Cab

Advertising can be the key to having a successful business. Paying for a giant billboard might be one way to reach a lot of people. You just have to make sure it's in a visible and busy location. That's why many use ads on the top of taxicabs. They move around the city so many eyes can come across them. Tony Stark must realize the beauty of taxicab advertising.

PRINCESS LEIA #2

Best “I Have a Bad Feeling” Moment

I'm sure I don't have to explain this one. I hope I don't have to explain this one. But not only do we get a "I have a bad feeling about this" quote from Evaan, it's actually interrupted by an "I know" phrase from Leia as well.

THE UNBEATABLE SQUIRREL GIRL #3

Best Battle Suit

Squirrel Girl needed to come up with a maneuver better than their Chestnut Epsilon move. She does come up with one.

Best Kit for Crooks

The bank robbers don't seem to be your typical crooks. Besides having matching outfits described as looking like "a mime doing Zorro cosplay," the have a pretty handy kit that almost helps them out in this situation.

SILK #2

Best Excuse for Coming out of a Manhole

Silk had to do some fighting down in the sewers. It got pretty gross. But what do you say when someone recognizes you and wonders what the heck you're doing?

That's it this week. Let us know in the comments below what other Best Stuff you dug this past week. Thanks to @djfanco, @TylerWeiss92, and Gregg Katzman. If you want to participate or felt we missed some other Best Stuff, you can @reply me on Twitter at@GManFromHeckby Fridays using the hashtag #BestStuffInComics. We'll give you a shout out and I'll think you're pretty groovy.

Be sure to always look for the best stuff and always be sure to try to keep smiling no matter how many crazed individuals you find yourself among.

What about the Galactus sign language symbol!?

I actually learned something this week @g_man all this time I thought Squirrel Girl was a girl with Squirrel powers. When it turns out she's a bunch of Squirrels in the shape of a girl! May have to pick up this book after all...

The bank-robber distraction kit was pretty cool too.

Now to ride off into the sunset...

"Hi Ho, Magnum PI the Horse! Away!!!"

The Silk one is my favourite.

HA I love these

~MiB

Kit for crooks!

CINDY IS THE NEW NINJA TURTLE!

@cave_duck: No she was wearing a suit made out of squirrels. You should be reading the squirrel girl unless you're trying to punish and rob yourself of happiness.

Lot of great stuff this week,i dont know much about her but Silk might make a great turtle, and who is the artist for Batgirl because he or she is awesome

That squirrel armor though.

Now I feel kinda bad for skipping out on that BG issue... but then again I have zero interest in Endgame and have no idea how much of that I need to read to understand that single tie-in.

Love that Silk art.

The Endgame's Barbara Gordon is looking even younger than Babs Tarr's!

I thought batgirl had blue eyes not green. Other then that good stuff.

Oh the pop culture references in Silk! That one is pretty funny, though lol

@machomustachio: I always link to the issue page. Just click the issue title.

Tony+The Best Stuff In Comics= FUN!!

Another pop culture reference in Batgirl ...

I'm very impressed with Peter Parker's vocabulary.

Some how I've become "old" but man emoji is something I don't get. Whatever happened to awesome simple smilies? Still their use in the Batgirl: Endgame one shot are really nice.

Silk keeps making me want to give it a try.

I shouldve picked up Silk.

Silk looks good.

Sorry, Tony but I miss the video version of this. You were so fun to watch. Still, thanks for this.

@g_man: oh cool, thank you

From where?

@g_man: So using the comments is bad? I never use twitter anymore. >.<

@deadpool25mm: Squirrel Girl 3.

Batgirl: End Game was cute. I love silent comics.

I miss the video version. Tony's a pretty funny guy

Batgirl's smile is terrifying.

Squirrel Girl and Silk were awesome. Silk's first issue was just okay but her second was so fun. And I want dat Batgirl!

So how much younger did she actually get in Batgirl? She looks 13 or 14, max...and is acting that way. Art is good though.

Silk is surprisingly good. Was not expecting the wit or decent story/art when it was announced.

Squirrel Girl is just silly. Good for those looking for that, but it is no more revolutionary than other true Independant comics, just unique for Marvel (IMO). Are they trying to make this "in-continuity".

Good stuff all around for the most part, a little something for everyone.

@outbreak666: Maybe I should bring back 2-Minute Time-Out?

In replacement for Donatello LOL
