A Break from Audiosurf Courtesy of an AIDs warning!


Alright, I've been playing a SHITLOAD of Audiosurf. I will probably write a separate post about what I label as the game with INFINITE replay value. For now, I can easily say though that this is the FIRST PC game I have bought since Monkey Island 4 (2001?) which attests to my love for this product. Anyways, I'll talk about that another time.

As for this Flash Comic, I just wish to note:

1) The Flash is sooo scary! I have never ever seen the Flash like this. If I saw this dude coming in like the Koolaid Man asking for sodas and passing out AIDs information, I would hide. I'm not kidding. Do you not see that angry expression on his face as he dunks that kid's basketball and orders another kid to bring him a soda? Goddamn.
2) Why is she shaded so oddly in comparison to the kids? He's not the GODDAMN Batman.
3) Is that the world behind him in that last panel? It's only showing a single country. Phillipines or Japan? What are you saying, Flash? WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

Okay, only two of those three comments make sense. Toodles!

"You may think it's not your problem..." - Comic Books on AIDs and Homosexuality

I don't know about you, but my favorite superheroes don't just serve the community with fists and super powers. NOPE. It is also a well-known fact that many superheroes can also protect and serve the country through the power of WORDS. In fact, I would be an extreme Asian supremacist without the work of our greatest superheroes. Over this week, I will post some friendly public announcements by my favorite superheroes.

Ah, Jon Stewart, the BLACK Green Lantern, is spreading the word regarding homosexuality and AIDs. Notice the lack of super powers (except for the flight and glowing ring). But wait....


....here's the exact same ad, but with Hal Jordan. * gasp * He's a WHITE Green Lantern and basically saying the EXACT same thing. Hell, all the background characters are the same. It is fascinating to see DC and the public service organizations use these two characters interchangeably to tell the same messages. Intriguing, indeed. Notice, that Jon Stewart (the Black one) has a darker background for the bottom panel.
