Yay, last part of the tour-de-force
that everybody will soon be talking about(in my mind at least), the
conclusion of the Separated Man saga. I've read some fantastic comic
book tales in my day. And I've also read this... Let's all sit back
and find out how the Teen Titans plan on defeating a giant foot, as
well as a giant ear... Personally, I'm still waiting for some of the
more... Shall we say, lewd parts of the Separated Man to make their
presence known...
Brave and the Bold #60(July 1965):
Summary: Oh, so the giant mouth isn't
just trying to blow Wonder Girl from the sky, it's also screaming at
her. Yes, it's screaming so loudly, that poor Wondy can't even
think... Luckily, she snatches a billboard and throws it in the
mouth's... Um, mouth? That shuts it up and and causes it to retreat.
From there, the Titans can't seem to locate the Separated Man(I'm
going to ignore Kid Flash falling into a pit of mud because it's just
too embarrassing...), who has gone into hiding... Even though he's a
giant freak... The Prof. tells Robin where his secret lab full of
Separated Man serum is, but as luck(or unluck) would have it, the
Separated Man's ear has overheard this and races off to get to the
lab.
"Holy earwax, Batman! How'd I miss that gigantic ear over there!?"
So wait, we actually have a water rescue scene and Aqualad doesn't even get a part of it???
Thoughts: Ah wacky Teen Titans comics
from the 1960's... What would I poke fun at without you? This comic
was everything I had hoped it would be and more! I will say that I
am a bit annoyed that the Separated Man didn't use his giant
genitalia at all in this adventure, but I guess there's always next
time. It was also kind of weird that the Separated Man never uttered
a word, when he was a giant, nor when he was just the ex-cellmate.
It's not often you see a villain who can talk, not saying a word.
Hmm, what else can I add to this one that I haven't already said...
Oh, I know! How the hell does Kid Flash lose a giant pair of feet in
a large, wide-open field?? I mean, sure, he fell in a mud bog, but
still... That was just sad... Hey, much like this comic!
I guess it's always been tough to be a fan of poor Wally West...
"I've read some fantastic comic book tales in my day. And I've also read this... " legit Lol moment for me.
ReplyDeleteSo... I don't get it. He separated then came back together to get the serums? Why? Like... that's the perfect opportunity to not have to be together... I... Um... okay.
Robin assuring someone they won't get extra jail time when he himself is a vigilante is hilarious. Also, if you went from underwater to land with super speed, wouldn't that fuck your equilibrium up completely?
We both know you're more than a BIT annoyed you didn't see his separated dong causing havoc. And that is interesting that the villain never spoke... And maybe he was mute?
