A nice tribute to the work of the talented special make-up effects creator Rob Bottin (particularly on John Carpenter's The Thing).

Sociopathic monster that pretends to be a friend to children has gotta be one of my favorite horror archetypes.

Comrade Namor

He teams up with Bruce Banner and most of his alters on an explicit mission to destroy capitalism, starting off by bankrupting the too big to fail Roxxon Corporation (whose CEO is a literal minotaur FYI, the shit kind.) 'Humans' as referred to there is about the destructiveness and unsustainability of how we treat the planet and each other. It's not a genetically loaded term here. Also, he just cooked Bruce a clam chowder. It's nice to look after our friends.

This is an in universe advert from the 90s where he declares war on any company that doesn't respect the planet, AKA all of them. Interestingly he uses inverted Marxist language to threaten from a position of strength - 'the oceans themselves as capital' is so huge a concept. No doubt he was pushing the limits of what critique capitalism can subsume into itself.

It's also strategically fascinating, IMO. Declaring war on countries is a historical Namor tactic with no winners. Corporations have no sovereignty to protect, no allies to call on, and you can't lobby for tariffs on Atlantis.

Except they may as well, because as ever, Marvel presents a liberal fantasy of human improvement and progressiveness. Corporations do what they do with the aid and permission of states, and neoliberalism can't exist without the free market. Marvel itself is profit-first and will never take any action that hinders that (intentionally) - but they will present the 'illusion of change' especially if the message itself is profitable to publish. I'm not saying anything new here, of course, but I think it'd be intellectually dishonest to not point out that the desired and eternal status quo isn't just restricted to the pages.

BEE TEE DUBS, if you haven't read Immortal Hulk, it's amazing. Al Ewing is a master and really pushes the limits of what comics can do, plus the Hulk says trans rights and fuck capitalism!

Alex Ross's 2018-2021 cover run on the Immortal Hulk series (2/2).

so here’s the thing

[razanulhoque]

Been re-reading my omnibus of Immortal Hulk (one of my all-time favourite Hulk runs), and Betty Ross's transformation into this Red Harpy creature was just gnarly and quite unique. And I wanted to draw something new, so I wanted to take a crack at her!

I wanted to try and get that "monster in the woods" type vibe with this piece.

[but-a-humble-goon]

Every single fridged and long suffering superhero girlfriend ever watching Betty Ross rise from the dead, transform into a monstrous embodiment of the rage that's been building up in her for years and then rip her superhero husband's heart out and eat it and being like 'hollup, let her cook.'
