1992 called and //unf//.
Jerry Seinfeld Explains Facebook’s Success in 1992!This small clip from Seinfeld does an incredible job of explaining why Facebook, and frankly all social media, is such an irresistible life-resource hog.
seriously they got the band back together (steel superboy and the eradicator, cyborg superman got goeff johns’d) and then //space doomsday from the future// showed up to kill present-day doomsday for his many crimes and to prevent present doomsday from slaughtering entire star systems in the future, and superman literally says ‘he may be a mass-murderer, but you (future doomsday) prove he can gain sentience and change and atone and also you just killed the eradicator SO NO MORE KILLING TODAY’.
he is seriously pissed off that space doomsday killed a kryptonian a.i. construct that is basically brainiac 1 and casually murdered a bunch of people while pretending to be superman in ‘92 and also is named //the fucking eradicator//. but having been told straight up that doomsday is a cosmic virus and will infect and manifest on and destroy populated planets everywhere if he’s not stopped here first, superman is all ‘whatever i don’t kill’.
like, fuck you, superman.
to be fair space doomsday is trying to destroy the earth as well, but superman could solve this entire kerfluffle by throwing present doomsday into the sun, or pointing out that his 30th century legion buddies have never heard of doomsday and seem to be being alive just fine, but instead he’s actually going to fight space doomsday on behalf of / alongside present doomsday, who, it’s worth noting, //killed superman that one time//.
meanwhile, and i’m so so glad i’m not making this up, space doomsday has just unleashed his //four doomsday clones// who thematically match the fake supermen from reign of the supermen, twenty years ago, so one of them is a cyborg and another is all covered in metal and rivets, and presumeably one of them is a whiny teenager.
it’s awesome. there are two issues left and i can’t wait to see how it ends. hopefully superman will take a kryptonite bullet meant for doomsday and supergirl’s skirt will finally flounce all the way up, distracting space doomsday just long enough for present doomsday to avenge his fallen enemy’s self-sacrifice by brutally murdering his own future self.
i fucking love comics sometimes.
This TV’s official movie page for Peterâ��s Friends - Released Dec 25, 1992
“and then in twenty years, i’m going to be directing thor. yeah! the comic book! and it’s going to be awesome. and you’re going to be sherlock holmes as an alcoholic american doctor, and you’ll be the smartest man in britain, and you’ll be an unpopular faculty member in a movie series about a boarding school for young wizards. as will i, actually. and emma.”
1992. Now that was a good year for Marvel trading cards.
SAM KEITH ART NO LESS!!!
when marvel studios gets around to doctor strange it is going to be glorious. this is because the core premise of doctor strange is ‘what if tony stark was a wizard?!’

Toys of Yesterday: Kenner’s Batman Returns action figure line - TOMOPOP
THIS IS AN ACTION FIGURE OF MICHAEL KEATON. YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID. also, he is wearing a superfly turtleneck with an abstract 90s print and a stylized bat symbol.
also, he’s batman.
virtual toy chest - batman returns series 1 - 1992
eighteen years ago this was the shit.
ryan had air attack batman, i had arctic and deep dive batman. i loved the clear arctic helmet with the pointy ears (hope he doesn’t need to look left or right in there) and the bright yellow wetsuit with the ridiculous sled. the mini batwing backpack with the machine guns was pretty cool too, and of course you can’t beat bat-o-flauge.
