Robin was never a member of the Fantastic Four.

I almost said "fighting crime" is his one true love, but knew nobody else would match it.

You guys all suck. I was hoping nobody would even remember that stupid ass "substitute Fantastic Four" storyline from the 90s when Wolverine slashed Thing's face open, and then Thing wore a bucket on his head because he thought the cut made him look too ugly, as if he wasn't already ugly beforehand.

Re: Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!

I'd argue that the "New" Fantastic Four were not actually members of the Fantastic Four. Wasn't the team formed by some skrull or something while the real Fantastic Four was kidnapped?

Congrats Jcheckel! I have no chance of catching up and it doesn't seem like a question that people would slam dunk.

  • S:25. Everybody loves Grant Morrison. Grant Morrison is brilliant. What did he write that made you stop and think “WTF is going on here?”

    This was way more varied than I thought….but I guess I should have remembered he had been confusing people for years.

    So is Batman R.I.P. going to be most sheepish? WTF. Final Crisis was a thousand times more confusing.

    I don't really know all that much about Morrison. I almost picked Animal Man because I've actually read it, but I switched.

    I thought there would be more love for Animal Man.. especially that homage to the Duck Amuck.

    Well, I haven't run a sheep game yet. But I've had evening classes that interfered with MNF while I was in fantasy leagues. And I managed to work in checking for last-minute subs and roster changes.

    You guys suck DP is really the point he went from doing off-beat yet semi-mainstream comics to taking a mainstream title and taking it completely off the deep end. What's the sheep answer going to be ... one of his recent superhero titles

    Track down his Doom Patrol run ... it's mind blowing (and I can't even imagine how much it blew people's minds in the 80s, especially since the title was a conventional second rate superhero team-up before Morrison got his hands on it)

    Re: Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!

    Batman & Robin was the only Morrison I knew off the top of my head, though I've read several of the others mentioned. I had quite a few throughout the game, where I only knew one or two correct answers. Surprised I ended up as high as I did, but that's the power of picking your slam dunks wisely I guess. Congrats to Jcheckel and thanks to ivelostr2 for running!

    That's pretty much the reaction from anything Morrison writes, but yeah Batman RIP and Final Crisis are generally the two biggest WTFs.

    I guess Batman was more sheepish though since everyone reads Batman, and not everyone likes the big events like the Crisis events.
