Don't know exact issue, but the fact that it's Batman and Cyclops (and Superman in the back there) tells me this is from the Marvel vs DC event in the 90s that was the lead up to the Amalgam comics.

I'm sure they're kicking around somewhere.
Thanks, i I've managed to find where it came from. Marvel DC All Access #4, a comic that never be repainted.

Was there ever a crocodile as big as 7 meters long even in the modern real world?

Post by Tyrannoraptor »

Has any crocodile (esp either the saltwater or Nile variant) ever grew that big before?

This is very simple to answer. Yes. In 1955, a Polish immigrant shot dead a Crocodile in Northern Queensland, Australia. The Saltwater Crocodile measured to be an astounding...

8.6 Metres!

The one ''VoyagerGoji'' posted is called Kry's The Savannah King

28.4 feet or 8.63 meters, weighing over 2 tons. He was shot in July, 1957 on the Macarthur Bank of the Norman River, Normanton, Queensland.

They have a replica of the beast. Here are pictures of the replica and some more details.

LoLong was nearly 21 feet in 2013, and there are pictures of another Crocodile estimated to be even bigger then Lolong in the Philippines. That still has yet to be caught which they assume did kill the little girl. So yeah there are still big ones out there but they get that way by staying hidden.

Really unlikely anyone's gonna know this one, but I'm trying to find a YouTube video I saw a few years back. It was an anime fight between a bunch of mecha set to music, I think it might have been for an anniversary or an event or a pachinko machine, something, but anyway it I think it was about 4 minutes long and pretty much self-contained, not like a clip from a show. I'm pretty sure it was 2D, but it could have been a fusion of traditional and CG. I think one of the enemy robots had like thorny tentacles it used, but the most vivid memory from the battle was one of the robots had a missile that fired from it's belt buckle, which led to a pretty unavoidably phallic pose as it deployed that might have been the thumbnail of the video. I'm pretty sure it wasn't any of the Mazingers, the Big O, or Getter Robo, I think it was a slimmer mecha.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'm gonna need details to be able to answer this in any meaningful way. If it's, say, Venus, I die. If it's Tatooine, I walk to the nearest cantina and hope I can barter for a glass of blue milk.

Alright, guys. Question.

Do you consider Nausica of the Valley of the Wind to be a kaiju film?

No, but if it will get someone to watch it then absolutely.

Sort of, it has what are consider kaiju, The Giant God Warrior. But they aren't the main focus of the film, like Gorath.

That totally depends on the fighters in question. Robin has speed and agility, but they mean crap if he has no weapons that can get past the Hulk's durability.

How do you pronounce Cthulhu's name? I always pronounced it as KU-THU-LOO, but apparently that's not how Lovecraft wanted it to be said?
