Warren Ellis sez so, so it must be true. ;)

[pennywisdom]

Warren Ellis is always correct, except for this occasion.

You see... Mark Millar doesn't lick goats. He makes love to them.













Can you name the comic I just in-joke referenced?

[Tobias March]

well it's true....

[PatrickG]

Oh. C'mon.

Millar punches foxes.

[Charles RB]

Mark Millar invented colic.

[Azrael52]

Yeah, and he caresses chickens.

[Shade]

Yeah, and he caresses chickens.

Oh honestly, who doesn't?

[Azrael52]

Hmm, good point, Shade. Though, I never said anything was wrong about that.

[Kevinroc]

And stuff like this is why I say Civil War is fun.

[Azrael52]

Try telling that to the South.;)

[Kevinroc]

Try telling that to the South.;)

They shouldn't have had slaves. :p

[Azrael52]

Even in S & M joints?

[Charles RB]

Even in S & M joints?

Especially not in S&M joints. They should have masters and other masters, for that is the way of freedom - and if they don't embrace freedom like we tell them to we'll beat them up.

[Azrael52]

'Cause that's the American way?

[Jack Zodiac]

And stuff like this is why I say Civil War is fun.

No, stuff like this is proof that books can still be fun in the midst of a depressingly involved crossover. If it weren't for this and Cable & Deadpool I'd be a whole lot less enthusiastic about Civil War. These books show us that comics can still be fun, in spite of mountainous continuity.

Double post much?

[Jack Zodiac]

All the time.

[Jack Zodiac]

All the time.

And I think the Wolverine issues are fun, in a very "action" sort of way.

It's Wolverine underwater wearing an Iron Man armor. With claws.

So goofy, it's fun.

And Mark Millar's dialogue is so over the top, I find it fun.

[PanzerMega]

Great cover.

Nextwave is sweet.

[Arawn]

Yeah, and he caresses chickens.

By definition anyone that has ever used a dry spice rub on chicken, caresses them. So I must be a chicken molester myself since I almost always use a dry rub when I bake, broil or grill.

[Azrael52]

Yeah . . . I always rub myself while I cook, too. Careful with that dry rub, though.

[David Bedlam]

And people say they wash their hands after handling chicken for hygine reasons.

Do goats taste nice? Is that why Millar licks them?

[Azrael52]

Couldn't it just be, like, I don't know, a compulsion disorder, say?

[Jack Zodiac]

Goat's gamey. The joke's about Millar being Scottish. All Scots lick goats. Warren Ellis is British, and all Brits hate Scots and vice versa.

[The Xenos]

Hey, I trust Machine Man on this one. If his robot brain says Mark Millar licks goats, then I believe him. Plus I never cared for Scotch. Give me a brandy or vodka drink anyday.

[Cam63]

Yeah, and he caresses chickens.

...and pulls trouser snakes.

[David Bedlam]

That's not surprising.

Scots wear skirts and no underwear beneith it, for easy access. Perverts.

[Azrael52]

...and pulls trouser snakes.

Um, are thos indigenous to your homeland, or . . . OOOOOhhhh!

[Alan Lynch]

Hey, us Scots are British you uncouth such and such. And it's the Welsh who enjoy farmyard creatures in a most unnatural manner. Ellis is talking bollocks.

[David Bedlam]

Alan has a point.

The Welsh like sheep.

The Scots like booze.

The Irish like secratianism.

The English like having feeling of superiority over the first three, while drinking booze from Ireland, living in a house heated by Scottish oil and eating lamb from Wales, all the time knowing in the back of their minds that if the Welsh, Scots and Irish ever ganged togther, the English would be doomed.

[Weetomuncher]

I bet most English people are too scared to watch Braveheart ever again!

FREEDOM!!!

[Weetomuncher]

We Scots are all brave.

Grant Morrison once stuck his head in a cage with a live haggis and lived to tell the tale.

[Azrael52]

Link, please.

[David Bedlam]

Ah, the fiendish man eating haggis, terror of the highlands!

It's back legs are longer than the front, so it's able to run up hill better.

*Plays the More You Know theme*

[MartinRedmond]

If he thought it could get him a job in Hollywood, I'm sure that sell out would do it.

[Jared_Humpherys]

I thought it was between the Irish and the Scots.

I mean, didn't Garth Ennis write that "All Scottish People Are Bastards" song in the pages of "Preacher" just to joke with Grant Morrison?


edit: IIRC, the lyrics were something like this:

"Do yeh come from Glasgow?
Do yeh come from Perth?
Do yeh come from Scotland
'Cause yeh dinnaeh come from Earth!

All Scottish people are bastards!
All Scottish people are bastards!
All Scottish people are bastards!...."
