Barack Obama, John McCain, and X-Men - Comic Book Speed Round for 10/13/08

[americanhottie3333]

i agree with pete a 100%. emma is a cold hearted bitch (who should just be writen off already).

[DEATH2REDNECKS]

heh. Alex is scared at Pete's rage.

[deemar325]

You guys don't do the stack anymore?

[ComicBookClub]

Nope, we're all over here now.

[charmedbro2]

Gotta agree with Pete. Die Emma Frost, DIE!!!

[pobra17]

if you guys were running for... something, I would totally vote for Pete! Oh ya and Green Lantern Corps kicks major ass.

P.S. Comicfan69- McCain would be the giant douche and I guess that would make Obama the turd sandwich, but seriously, McCain is a total douche

[chicksinbras]

hey guys.

funny,funny episode

so...i don't know why people aren't on board for green lantern corps. the whole story arc is leading to the prophecy of " the darkest knight"...i agree with Justin..EVERYONE get on board

ha im not even gonna get into politics..thats how fights are started..to me..were always choosing between a douche or a turd sandwich

well..cant wait for the next episode

your fan,

Matt of 2814 (Comicfan69)

[maerdaporue]

let mr pet talk!!!!!!! please!! and quick question.... the macbook... is from alex?

[MakenZero]

Man if comicbooks want Obama win wow that's crazy haha. Poor Pete he was abused in this you guys are meanie!

[nativeII]

I grew up in a time when terrorists called themselves Cobra, a time when Autobots had to stop Orson Wells from eating planets, a time of Bonkers chewy candy..Sometimes all we had was laughter and only one man was the stand up comic of comics..Ambush Bug. Please review..You owe it to him and yourselves.

[Bomtungle]

Pete, just kiss Justin. We all know you love him really!

[Bojac]

About damn time you guys mentioned Green Lantern on the show. I can't recall you guys ever even mentioning ring-slinging before.

[tccb]

i support Truthiness :D

[scottkicksyou]

Will you review JIMMY OLSEN, tomorrow?

[PulpMagnet]

"give me my four dollars back!" LOl

[WoWplyr19]

i predict pete will leave soon

[fanboy2177721]

You give it to that "cold hearted bitch" Pete!

[TheRighteousOne]

LMAO @ "over the internet" comment...

Also you guys should post the name of the beer on the description with the comics names..

[StepsonOfTheClapper]

Catman '08!

[amazingdavidman]

Pete has real problems. REAL problems.

[ejulpboy]

Pete's right about the Emma story, no way would she yell out like an angsty junior high student at dinner, it undermines her character's appeal to make her that obviously insecure...plus how many times is Logan going to have that same "talk" with people? I love Emma, but that story was lame.

Justin is right about the rest of the book though, big props to Skottie Young for his writing on Juggernaut.

[BaiLong45]

Pete's rant on the White Queen...HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

[BigBangBear]

I'd vote for Catman. Good to see that things have returned to normal (aka Pete getting enraged) after the time of relative peace in shows when either Justin or Alex were absent.

[BigDTxgmail]

Justin, I understood your comment about Pete being a "log cabin republican" even if he didn't. Very nice.

[amazingdavidman]

Pete understands very little, but is great for irate comedy!

[Josh5674]

Sure, you could vote for Catman... if you want to throw your vote away.

[nomadikk]

Are you guys drinking Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout?

[ytj92]

The fact that Pete hates Emma Frost so much only shows that the character is being written well. From my presumption, she is suppose to be seen as a bitch

[WeeklyComicReview]

exactly!

[LaJaDiSc]

How funny would a drunken speed round be? Empty bottles strewn all over. Lamp shades askew. Loud slurred arguments. Who will pass out first?

[gatsbyman]

Hahaha. Pete's so passionate. What a badass.

[listo65]

lighten up pete damn! crack a smile or two, your not performing brain surgery

[superguy04]

I wanna vote catman

[DoctorGenome]

"Are you guy's done being stupid?"

Great stuff. Hope you guy's review YOUNG LIARS sometime soon. It is such a good comic, and needs to have the word spread, or the trigger happy execs at DC/Vertigo will pull the plug.

[RoyalTenenbaum]

I love all the bickering

[srwapo]

I liked the last two issues of The Twelve when STUFF ACTUALLY HAPPENED. The first six issues were just a long and laborious setup. They had their good moments, but can have been cut down to three or four issues. This series feels just too long and would have worked better as 8 or 9 issues in total (unless, of course, the last four issues make the slow pacing worth it).

[maxsant74]

we should call this "Angry Reviews"...incredibly funny

[atomzzk]

A cold hearted bitch still have some feelings Pete! :P

[Hexy69]

Very nice speed round. Pete was right all along.

[Yankeemetfan06]

I should report your episodes, FOR AWESOMENESS

[bakbak5]

LOL I picked up both issues of Obama and McCain

[namelessronin]

liked both as well. just didn't like that both comics were so biased to the left. the media needs to stop that kind of crap.

[ejulpboy]

Especially Fox news, lol.

[namelessronin]

yo, u must live in bizarro world. c'mon, CBS, NBC, and ABC vs. FOX? stop kidding urself.

[prodigy00073]

Great speed round guys !!! Can you review more vertigo stuff?

[comicbookfanboy]

The Political comics should have been The Super Presidents. You know like the old SNL cartoons The Super ExPresidents.

[tccb]

it's weird to me that they have Presidental Candidate comics, don't Politics invade enough of our lives from every other medium that they can't leave the sanctity of our comics alone....i guess if KISS did it everyone thinks they can too *eye roll*

[tsujikiri7]

yeah but people need to be thinking more about politics right now considering how much trouble this country is in. especially since the main reason we're in so much trouble is that people don't pay attention and let bush and his cronies wreck our economy

[thefunnyfatguy]

Great speed round,lots of comics. Thanks for posting my Marvelboy,you guys keep on rockin'. Pete is right on the money about everything he says. Everyone else is forever wrong. Yes,he is a spawn of satan,but an honest spawn. Pete for president.

[blowshimselfupdude]

I'm really glad Pete has a level head. More and more Pete seems liek the best guy on the show. He seems to really represent the everyfan. And now he's able to say "hey this comic is biased" without even beeing and ass hole liek Justin and completley saying his political views. Pete could be for Obama and still think the comic is biased. And I really respect that. Way to go Pete.

[PattyCsU]

Yeah I agree, I havn't read the comics but I'd also be a bit peeved if the two comics had a bias to the left considering the election is just around the corner and I support Obama over McCain its good to see Pete probably thinks the same.

[tehquestion]

I can't believe I agree with Pete over Alex and Justin for once but yeah... as much as I like Emma Frost, Manifest Destiny sucked.

[bitlerbitler]

I love the way your different opinions smack each other in the face right in front of us every week. "Listen why this sucks." "Shut up." "You're right it's an amazing comic." Yet in the end, I never think you will kill each other as soon as the camera stops.

[iampeluche]

X-Men: Manifest Destiny was good, I liked all 3 stories. Great show, as always. Peace.

[drterrett]

Pete, you are a great guy for putting up with Justin.

Justin, you make me laugh. Keep it up!

Alex, right there with you on Final Crisis Revelations.

Love the show, love the books, love the symmetrical lamps.

First Post!

[travdog8]

EMMA FROST! DIE! LOLOLOLOL

[agenstuall85]

PETE'S A COMMUNIST!!!

[blowshimselfupdude]

McCain doesn't support communisim. He supports Capitalism. Obama supports Socialism which is eseentially a watered down Comunisim. So know your facts. Or defend your statments with truthyness.

[agenstuall85]

damn dude you must have sat there for a while thinking that up its a joke i meant nothing more i never even mentioned john mccain chill out

[blowshimselfupdude]

No it took me like 5 seconds. Ignorence just annoys me.

[agenstuall85]

does humor annoy you?

[blowshimselfupdude]

No. But there was no humor in your statment. Why would you say Pete's a comunist? Nothing he said would even justify a joke about that. Unless your just ignorant and don't relise John McCain supports comunisim. But I'm not telling you who I support. I'm just saying your being ignorant.

[agenstuall85]

if only there wernt d-bags like you out here taking all the fun out of everything

[blowshimselfupdude]

What? How? In what way was what you did fun or funny. It wasn't. I'm all for the whole ether A) calling something a comunist for no reason becasue thats hip now like playing a driving game "christ this guy keeps passing me he must be a comunist" or B) Useing communist for a political coment. You really can't make a political commentabout comunisim and it be funnny. Now this is all of course assuming that you were sayign it in reffrence to the Obama McCain comics thing.

[agenstuall85]

dude im telling you you are reading way to much into it lighten up bro we all got to share this world man i mean i never even mentioned either canidate make sense please
