Their cunning plan is hilarious in its simplicity.

Also, how did Dr. Doom manage to make a planet that dwarfed Earth?

So I noticed that the title of this comic is Star Jaws... does it have anything to do with Star Trek, Star Wars, or Jaws?

I can sense some kind of internet meme brewing (then again I thought the same thing about Vulgar Scrabble, which I made to entertain myself at Starbucks about a week or two but my friend Albert insisted we make it into a YTMND... When I'm not at school with filtered internet I'll find the link, or I'll get the better pictures from another friend of mine)

So is that text altered or what?

That Robot is cute! I want him to be my butler robot.

Also I like the "They put the T.N.T. in space!"

as dmauro pointed out, the way they emphasize words makes it even better. this is probably funnier than the Hostess cakes comics.

Unfortunetly, I spend 89% of my week working 8 hours a day. After work, I spend another 89% of my week playing Gears of War until my hands cramp and I realize that if I go to bed right then I would be able to get 5 and a half hours of sleep before work tomorrow.

I spend my days off packing boxes for the move. Which is practically work anyway.

All the more reason to love Iron Man now.

Why didn't they just use a single nuclear device instead of 1000,000 tins of TNT? Since space travel is budgeted by the ton, this would have cut the costs of the mission by 1000,000 times.

Maybe Marvel Boy should think things through a bit harder before he asks that general for anything in the future. After all, he'll do anything he says, and that's a power which comes with great responsiblilty. That little TNT stunt probably just wiped out the entire United States aerospace budget for the next 50 years.

A live-action segment coincided with that comic on The Electric Company.
One of the villians was a guy who crushed cans with a giant hammer, in search of his lost pet frog.

I thought Iron Man: Extremis was pretty amazing stuff. I hear the Knauf brothers are writing the following arc. I'd suspect on their pedigree alone it would be good, but what do people here think?

That page is from Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's WE3, incidentally. Perhaps the most significant comic in recent memory.

I was simply joking. I have a lot of respect for it and it's a shame there are so many people who get put off by the (imaginative) swearing and crudity.
