Hello, and welcome to Saturday Morning Panels, your new favorite Multiversity column! It’s a very simple concept: since none of us are up to watching Saturday morning cartoons anymore, we are instead going to share with you our favorite panels from the week before. It’s a bit like Comics Should Be Cheap, except with more pictures and less reading.
And, of course, spoilers are probably abundant.
We encourage you to play along at home and let us know what your favorite moments of the week were in the comment section! In the meantime, our picks:
Matthew’s Pick: “Black Dynamite” #1
Ah, yes, authentic Chinese Kung Fu. Everyone has their own way of getting in the mood.
James’ Pick: “Secret Avengers” #14
Who knew Taskmaster’s death would be so tearjerking?
Vince’s Pick: “Marvel Knights: Hulk” #2
One of the better Hulk transformations I’ve ever seen, drawn by my breakout artist from last year: Piotr Kowalski.
Michelle’s Pick: “Strange Nation” #4
Welp, consider my heart broken.
David’s Pick: “Alex + Ada” #3
Alex + Ada is a delightful comic that really took a swerve in this issue that was unexpected, but something I myself was openly rooting for as I read it, and it’s thanks to the charm that Jonathan Luna and Sarah Vaughn imbue the characters and their world with that I’m doing so. This panel, in which Alex’s friends are interrogating Ada (nicely!), is a pretty fantastic one, and I particularly loved this moment as the two women united in somewhat disgust over Ada’s perfection. You should really be reading this book.
