Swears are a sledge hammer. Many tasks don't require a sledgehammer. But sometimes you need a sledgehammer.

I'm not even into magic and I'm offended

And, depending on where in the world they go, they may have to walk a lot to talk to people about the walk.

Since they don't appear to be on Hoopla your best bet might be trying an Inter-library loan for the "Marvel Masterworks: Golden Age Captain America" books. This page should have all the information you would need for the request, though check with your library for the specific method https://www.marvel.com/comics/collection/39345/marvel_masterworks_golden_age_captain_america_vol_1_trade_paperback

As a heads up, Marvel has only reprinted issues 1-20 and 76-78 of the original "Captain America Comics" series. You specifically mentioned Jack Kirby in your post, so if you're only interested in stuff he worked on you're fine, as he only did issues 1-10 and then left Timely until he returned in the late 50s or early 60s. But if you're interested in the entirety of the Golden Age stories then the only way currently to read pages 21-75 are to purchase physical versions (which is impossible for most people) or pirate them.

Thanks for this! I've been trying to be better at just this sort of things at my tables, so your videos are coming at the perfect time.

But you are trying to maximize fun, so if these types of skills help you increase the fun at your table then it's good to implement, regardless of whether or not it's usually viewed as a "workplace skill".

I'm intrigued, what kinds of things?

Not only am I going to pick it up, I'm gonna try and eat it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That's fair. I haven't watched the show so I wasn't sure what it entailed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I'll check those out. Thanks!

 

My dad has talked about potentially getting into comics, particularly the hulk as he grew up on the Lou Ferigno TV show. I'm not well versed in hulk lore, is there a run that matches the vibe of the TV show? Preferably something collected into a trade.

The only way iron man could win is if it's funnier for bugs to be beaten. But I can't personally think of a scenario where a billionaire with enough weaponry to destroy a city beating up a bunny is funnier than the reverse.

Unfortunately a lot of that stuff is hit and miss. For Captain America Comics specifically, Marvel has released reprinted and digital copies of issues 1-20 then 76-78. To read 21-75 you have to either get a hold of physical copies (very expensive) or pirate them (where many of the scans are poor quality).

For the ones available digitally, Marvel Unlimited is probably the best option. For not-technically-legal scans I personally used https://readcomiconline.li/ but I know other people don't like their UI (and I think the ads can be pretty bad but I use an ad blocker that seems to cut it all out)

 

It doesn't always work out, but I love changing limbo to something else on turn 6. Suddenly making the game shorter than my opponent expected just makes me giddy. (Chavez had also just got pulled over by my Polaris, I'm assuming they were planning on putting Odin in that final slot to get an army of tiger spirits set up)

 

Wish I had gotten a "before" picture, but with multiple instances of storm breaker being activated, my opponent had triple digits in both the right and left lanes. But with this they had also filled every spot on their side of the board. I had only just drawn my Valkyrie and realized that with it being duplicated by sinister London I could wipe out all those buffs my opponent had put in while my ongoing buffs from blue marvel would still apply. They must have been shocked when I snapped despite being massively behind in every lane 😂

Freaking Ego... (sopuli.xyz)
submitted 8 months ago by [email protected] to c/snap
 

Had to retreat before the turn ended because Ego apparently thinks playing green goblin when the opponent's lane is already full is a great idea.

Maybe this is my punishment for playing a junk deck 😂

 

I made a post recently lamenting my most recent cache containing M'Baku. Well, I recently put him in my kazoo/Patriot deck just to get some boosters. After the final cards revealed themselves I saw I lost and was getting ready to queue up a new game, when there was a flurry of motion on the screen and I saw the "Victory" logo. I hadn't realized that M'Baku had activated and went to just the right spot to make me win by a single point. I know that one instance doesn't suddenly make him a good card, but I found it ironic considering my recent post.

 

Guess I had to pull it some time

 

I noticed this when I jumped from 50 to 53 and thought I was just confused, but it happened again at 60 where as soon as I hit the milestone I was suddenly 3 levels higher. Anyone know why this is happening?

 

Machine world is the least bad of the three and even it isn't great. Weird world may be my least favorite in the whole game.

Skaar Deck (sopuli.xyz)

Considering that project pegasus let me play Infinaut on turn one, and then Skaar turn 4, I'm surprised my opponent waited so long to retreat.

Unfortunately my Mjolnir was destroyed when the middle location changed to Lamentis-1

 

Normally I hate this location but I'm currently trying out a deck with kazar and Patriot, so I was actually pretty excited for it.
