More Barry Bashing
Ok, Sea of Green and Folded Soup have both upped the ante. I MUST come up with some serious Barry-bashing at this point. Unfortunately, the paucity of any really spectacular scans of Barry being an idiot, is making this very very difficult. I don't have any trouble making fun of Hal, because really, there is just an embarrassment of riches when it comes to Hal being an idiot.
I can even come up with a lot of pictures of Wally being an idiot. Or Guy. Or Superman for that matter. Aquaman certainly has his moments, while scans of Bat-dickery abound. But Barry? Dammit, this is hard!
Frankly, this is the best that I can come up with. And it really isn't Barry being idiotic, it is that ridiculous bunch that he's saddled with. Seriously, this is not necessarily the bunch of people that I would run to, if the universe is in trouble. The Teen Titans? Hawk & Dove? JIMMY OLESON??!!! I'm surprised that Snapper Carr isn't there. C'mon, Barry...you can do better! Granted, you have Hal Jordan"Mr. Walking Concussion" there with you, but still!
Bah!
I'm running to the Comicbook store and buying Green Lantern Corps #18. And then I'm taking the evening off.

AAAAQUAMAN IIIIN SPAAAAAACE ...!
Seriously, the Titans and Jimmy Olsen aside, WHY is Aquaman in space?!? That's even worse than Batman in space. Barry, Barry, Barry ... Did Iris forget to feed you breakfast that morning or something?
I went to the comic store, and Comic Store Guy said his shipment was late and wouldn't be in 'til tomorrow(!!!!!)!
*Sea screams maniacally and slams her head repeatedly on her desk.*
AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!
Barry should also get blamed for Wally's haircut. What's going on with that?
And who are the three people behind Hal next to Jimmy?
The dark-haired chick is Lois Lane. I don't have a clue about the two guys. I'm guessing the brown-haired guy is Doc Magnus (but without his trademark blazer and pipe?). That issue supposedly contained every character that debuted in Showcase, though. Would they happen to be Rip Hunter and Fireman Farrell?
Wow and I thought the villains we have on our blog game are bad. Mind you apart from mr unconscious (Hal Jordan) Barry doesn't have much to work with there.
I do enjoy the whole idea of your fascination with green lantern backsides. For me there's only John Stewart. You know the saying, once you go black.....
Ahyhoo if you want to check out the blog game its called "Who wants to be a Super Villain."
Its a lot of fun.
Sea, you've been having the worst luck getting your books lately! Sheesh!
I did rather wonder what the heck Aquaman was doing there. He's not the first name that I would think of, when there is some sort of cosmic kerfuffle a'brewin'!
The presence of Adam Strange does make a tiny bit of sense, and when he's not making an ass of himself, Hal is reasonably competent, but the rest of them? What the hell if Robin going to do?
Patrick, I don't know if Barry can be held completely responsible for Wally's hair. Teenagers, you know.
Synth-lin, welcome to the world of Green Lantern adulation. And yes, John is hot as heck.
Well, Rip's an easy pick. He's the freaking time master, after all.
The metal men are obviously cannon fodder. As always.
And once in Fantastic Four, it was revealed space travel is like swimming, assuming you don't decompress explosivly.
