How can there be more character development in GLA than in all of Marvel's "big" lines? Because it's the GLA, that's how. GLA thread.
Can anyone storytime Issue #1? I have 2 and 3 but I missed the debut. Also, Goodboy's secret identity a cutie

... Okay, you've got me there. SI was okay. But everything else I've read from him was hot garbage except for SpOck, no I'm not kidding, Superior was actually really good and I'm glad they are keeping Otto's mind alive in robots for now, the Superior Spidey will make a comeback someday dammit
That's ok from a fetish perspective, but not as qt as new Bertha.
Isn't he a mutate, not a mutant?

>Big Bertha's regular form got fat somehow (how does that even happen?)
I think it's because while she can make herself fatter at will, she can only become thinner through copous vomiting.
And she just decided to... vomit less?
This book really appeals to a lot of fetishes.
Makes sense. Vomiting is super bad for your teeth.
I'm afraid I don't have time to post the whole thing myself, but if you want to read it (or if someone else wants to storytime it), you can find it here.
>One of their new members is a teenage black girl with blue hair and a fursona, who turns into a blue male werewolf
>It's not cringeworthy as fuck
>Vomiting is super bad for your teeth.
Never heard that one before, why? Stomach acid fucks up teeth or something?
Yeah, it breaks down enamel like ten times worse than soda. Whenever you vomit you wanna scrub your teeth quick.
Pretty much exactly why. Brush your teeth after a vom

This comic satisfies all of my fetishes
They are sort of a free reign deal to write for. You have "rules" and trammels with the "big boy avengers" but these guys? Do whatever the fuck you want, as long as it's funny and they get their noses rubbed in what schmucks they are regularly.
That is something you can relate to, too. They are actually fairly competent, but flawed. And variously only marginally successful. A lot of people in general and those who read comics do have at least something going for them, but it never really gelled. Not even at the level one could expect with some level of ability.
Maybe I'm projecting? Probably. But I can relate to it. I'm not a dumb guy, but my flaws and poor decisions mean I'm not doing what I could be.

What the fugggg
So how Immortal is Mr. Immortal really? It was said that he would outlive all gods and the universe, but it seems he was killed in Secret Wars?
>Doorman is an avatar of Oblivion
>the embodiment of nothingness
>one of his powers is the creation of constructs
Shit seems backwards.
>in a robot
Oh user I'm so sorry
Is her fursona male or something?, i need to know
That's because Darkforce no? I understood that it came from Oblivion picking his champions from Darkforce users, so darkforce powers are incidental while the real Oblivion powers are death sense, immortality and free travel to the afterlife.
Dunno if there's an actual "erasing" power out there, but it would make sense, and also be horribly overpowered. I think Maelstrom had something like that?
Truly, we are the Marvel's Great Lakes Avengers™.
Yes, her fursona is male. Her brother's fursona is a pink two-tailed fox-girl.
I'm not sure why Mr. I is so worked up, he was patient enough to wait it out until 2099 so he could ask Squirrel Girl to kick Deadpool out of the house after he became a NEET with them.
Everything involving Good Boy has been hilarious so far. Plus she/he has that perfect sheen of patheticness and imperfection to be a Great Lakes Avenger.
So I bought this at my LGS just the other day and the LGS guy was straight up talking about how Doorman is the superhero equivalent of the Spot. He's stupidly, brokenly powerful, but chooses to use his powers for really stupid things, like teleporting his friends through locked doors and shit. None of this info was solicited, the LGS guy just started talking about it, I guess he's a huge Doorman fan. Took me forever to get my receipt.
Tl;dr Doorman could go cosmic, he just can't be fucked and would rather chill around with his GLA bros. Besides, he seems smart enough to know that the more you hang around Galactus and co, the more likely it is you'll wind up in some huge cosmic battle. Not really ideal for a guy who just wants to punch thugs in Detroit.
The first half of his She-Hulk run and his run on The Thing were fun. is right too.
>I think Bruce Banner died. I can't keep up
I fucking love the GLA. They have the correct reaction to Big Two bullshit
>Wait, didn't Dr. Doom turn our planet into Battleworld for a while?
>Who cares, let's go get some churros
OP here. Anyone got issue 1? I'm still not caught up on it.
I'm not sure why Oblivion is mad, every time we saw the GLA after he became an angel of death he was doing his job just fine.
Apparently Doorman was lost in the Darkforce before the start of the current run but I have no idea why.
hnnngg I love genderbender, but this should have never been given an ok.
It'S GLA. I don't think Marvel gives a fuck what happens in GLA as long as it stays away from their "super serious donut steel" events.
That said, she's easily the weirdest of the GL Avengers now.
>teleporting guy
>immortal guy
>flat guy, fat lady
>Iridescent blue wolf who's literally just a giant walking Deviantart furry drawing
She's an adorable character tho
>Is it okay to take stuff from bad guys? I need a new pair of sunglasses.
>it seems he was killed in Secret Wars?
He could have easily been left alive floating in the void of white space.
>Big Bertha's regular form got fat somehow
That IS Big Bertha's regular form.
Her supermodel form was her "regular" non-hero form I thought. What happened to that? Does she just not model anymore? I am confused.
She gained weight being out of the superhero game.
I think she's a plus size model now.
Remember the 4 issue run o GLA? By that point it already showed that Bertha was pissed at people glorifying her model form and being disgusted as her blob form, which she found to be the more beautiful because of what she could do in it. She didn't like that her weak model figure was what girls wanted to be and not the superhero that happened to be a fatass.
Theoretically, Doorman and Immortal could've survived the Incursions. The universe did end, so there's a chance that he became an alcoholic because the pointless suffering Deathurge put him through was for nothing.
>Mr. I sees the dn of everything in Secret wars
>Finally receives the final answer of the universe:
>"Richards>Doom"
>Mr. I just goes into a bar the moment Molecule Man puts things back together again.
And speaking of D'urge, I wonder if he still hangs around Immortal. I don't read Squirrel Girl so I don't know if he has made more murder attempts on her squirrel.
So is this run actually worth picking up? I loved the original GLA but I was hesitant to give a modern run of it a try.
Bertha and Flatman are kinda hurt by the "current year" diversity mentality, and the blatant Deviantart Furry should tell you all you need to know, but Doorman and Immortal remain just as enjoyable.
The furry could still be a good parody, but up to this point it sill feels like it's being played straight.
Overall it's ok, but it doesn't feel cynical enough, like the Slott run of GLA or Superior Foes of Spider-Man.
But I though that was the joke?
"She is in reality a super model, but her super power is to be super fat."
If she is just a female Blob, what's the joke here? "People got pissed at me being thin so now I'm always fat?"
... I think I get the joke in a meta level since I'm like 90% sure the current internet would hate on her original character concept.
We still don't know why she got fat in her base form.
>The furry could still be a good parody, but up to this point it sill feels like it's being played straight.
This is something I was concerned about. I was worried about the furry but I didn't want to judge too soon.
On the other hand, she doesn't like Deadpool fetishizing her larger self, either.
