The GoD List: Comics For June 27, 2012
space
Hunter Camp   |  

GoD List Banner

Each and every week “Pugs Not Hugs” MK2Fac3 and “The Nachos!” Henchman21 read a lot of comics. Seriously you guys, a lot of comics. Maybe too many comics. I mean, it is possible”¦ theoretically. They look forward to some more than others, I mean, who doesn’t? So, let’s take a look into the depths of their pull lists, grab some comics, and we’ll let YOU know what the top books to look forward to are for the week of June 27, 2012. Single issues and trades, they’re all here.

“Some days, you just can’t get rid of a bomb.” Truer words were never spoken. It’s these words that summarize what was so great about Batman (1966). A higher level of social commentary was beautifully woven alongside a campy nature that is enjoyable on both a childlike mentality, while also appealing to the ironic appreciation of many adults. Yes, enjoying the ’60s Batman was hipster before hipster was a thing. But not only was this movie, and show, enjoyable, these worlds also perfectly embody the message that was in every episode. This quote, specifically, shows that no matter what you do, sometimes things are completely out of your control. Yes, despite what your parents and teachers told you as a child, everything is not possible. For example, it’s impossible for me to make any sense in the opening paragraphs of The GoD List, a weekly feature about new comic books, not the brilliant wonders of Batman (1966). Perhaps some day, but not this day. Take that, relevancy.

Marvel’s ‘The Avengers’ Passes Elusive $600 Million Domestic Mark

The Movie God   |  @   |  

The Avengers Assemble

Barring any late mega-surges, it doesn’t appear that Marvel’s juggernaut The Avengers will pass James Cameron’s Avatar as the all-time biggest box office success. It will, however, do something only two other movies have been able to do: pass $600 million domestically.

For the longest time, Cameron’s other record-breaker, Titanic, sat untouched at the top of the mountain at just over $600 million (with an additional almost $58 million added after its recent 3D re-release). Then came Avatar, slaughtering every record in its path en route to a stunning $749 million domestic haul (with an additional $30 million or so tacked on with a special edition re-release, bringing it to over $2.7 billion worldwide).

Now The Avengers will join the most exclusive of all clubs, becoming only the third film to cross the $600 million domestic mark. Worldwide, the movie is now at $1.4 billion, also making it the third highest grossing film of all time globally.
