They also made a crack at Plastic Man saying that Mr. Fantastic would choke him by extending a part of his body… Do they not know Plas can shape his body into ANYthing?!? I understand they mainly like Marvel, but they should probably brush up a bit on their DC knowledge… (as they also mis-dated The Killing Joke as 1978… Whoops!!)

That’s just Kevin’s schtick, making as many jokes with sexual innuendo as possible.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the guy – but I can’t say I’m shocked.

So is Kevin Smith suggesting that we shouldn’t listen the the voices of older men that we hear in our heads? Oddly, this comment reminded me not so much of Firestorm, but of the television version of SHAZAM, where Billy Batson traveled around with a guy who called himself “Mentor.” Now THAT was creepy.

It’s getting a second season and decent ratings, so somebody likes it. I usually lasted 10-15 minutes, after watching the 11:30 Walking Dead rebroadcast and the Talking Dead. I was too tired to do anything else, but after a bellyful of these guys being ignorant “experts” and all around dicks in plainly staged “reality” situations, I’d turn off the TV altogether. It was a good dig, though. I never considered the ongoing gay subtext. Maybe latency, Midwestern values, and Doreen Day were what drove him to drink.

ComicBook Men Sucked! Who gives a Rats Ass what Mr. Smith & those Co-Hosts say, even in jest. That has to be the Worst Show on TV. I watched the 1st show & that was it! so the 3 people that actually watched it, might have been mildly amused.
