Brief bit on 52, Week 17

Bombasticus asks:

Wonder what was going through the heads of those Kobra guys that
the luthor-wolverine was slicing. i know what was going through their
torsos, hyuck hyuck.


AFOB replies:

*Sigh* Claws and disemboweling are sooo 1993. Making fun of claws and disemboweling is sooo 1997. Finding complexity and nuance in "claws and disemboweling" characters is sooo 2001. Don't these people realize the new trend is to take claws and dismboweling back to basics and pretend the past 20 years never happened?

Meanwhile, speaking of Lord Naga's l'il buddies, I don't imagine I was supposed to root for the Kobra goon squad during their little set-to with the Luthor Schmuck Brigade. The fact that I did is a measure of the accretion of disappointment that I've built up about this series.
