You've gotta use the UBB codes, rather than HTML.

"I had a great idea for a swamp monster! What if he was named Alec Sallis, and instead of being able to talk, he becomes a big monster that burns people who are afraid of him? That sounds like nothing else out there!"

Eeew!?!

<Wizard reader>Haha! Because, like, Grant Morrison comics are gay! Hahaha!</Wizard reader>

Popimage has its good points - many in fact - but the 'humour' section is not one of them.

That page is great! It's just like The Onion, except pathetically unfunny...

I guess they're taking the piss on Stan Lee, not Morrison. And that Wizard Reader talnk made me laugh. Cue South Park classmates.

If he's the Gay-Mariner, then why does he need to come out? Isn't it obvious?

And why is he carrying Sue? He should be carting around Grimm, Johnny or maybe even that sexpot Wyatt Wingfoot, for God's sake.

Why the fuck is the Torch saying the Gay-Mariner is going to turn "Invi-S-Ible?" What does he mean by that? And why is he saying it in that way?

C'mon. Let's get the annotations rolling...

Nope.
But now I got it, now.

Anyway <trying to get out of embarrassment>, we know he (Mr. Lee) can do things like that, given the opportunity.</trying to get out of embarrassment>

Same rules apply.

Now, that Gail Simone who does 'You'll All Be Sorry' at www.comicbookresources.com - that's funny-book mockery done... funny.

--If he's the Gay-Mariner, then why does he need to come out? Isn't it obvious? --

Because they thought 'gay' was only 'happy'.

--And why is he carrying Sue?--

Either to give him advice on hooking up with so strangely handsome men, or to throw her out so he can stay with the three of them.

--Why the fuck is the Torch saying the Gay-Mariner is going to turn "Invi-S-Ible?" --

Probably because in the original it was 'invincible' and that was the only crummy way to paste de 'S', which made it funnier.

--Nope. But now I got it, now.--

They joked about Stan making Swampy like Marvel's Man-Thing.

--Now, that Gail Simone who does 'You'll All Be Sorry' at www.comicbookresources.com - that's funny-book mockery done... funny.--

Agreed, but I liked this particular mockery. =)
