    You can get Arnie Hammer to play Matter Eater Lad. You'd save a ton of money in special effects by simply having him bring his friends along.

    I think you and maybe a guest should do "What if manga publishers licensed alternate versions of their hits out to Western comic publishers other than Marvel or DC?" For an extra challenge, try never to use the same manga or publisher twice and/or give your reasoning to why the licensor would give the IP to this publisher over other ones. It'd be a good video to have fun with, I'd imagine.

    So for the Matter-Eater Lad, I think it should just be called M.E.L.
    And definitely deserves a 9 part build up, and in issue 9 (spoilers) he is confronted by *Wildfire* who's like: "Well Tenzil Kem, too bad your aren't ANTI-Matter-Eater Lad!" and then he punches him, in the face.
    Cause he can't eat him, cause Wildfire's made up of Anti-Matter.

    Reminds me of “Eat-Man ‘98,” and could be interesting to see a more gory version. Though, if you want to make it topical make “Matter-Eater Lad” be the star/lead in a foodie show, while leveraging the framework of “the Aristocrats” joke (of no pauses or repeats) where the point is to be as graphically vulgar and disgusting as possible.
    Great gag pitches, yet, sadly it seems like it is only a matter of time...
    Next will be UltraNPC who isn’t really there since they don’t exist. Followed by the Social Justice Warriors where all the characters are done through first person, but are occasionally shown in distorted reflections (preferably in a Doug McLean art style).

    The Aquaman pitch is incredible. Marvel You is exactly what I’ve always wanted in a Marvel comic and until it gets published I’ve been cheated of what I’ve always deserved and wanted from their heroes. I could see “Planet Thing” winning some Eisners and a Grammy.
    I have a pitch myself. A comic starring Lois Lane, Catwoman, Carol Ferris, Iris West and Mera. Where all these women come together and talk about their sex lives with their Superhero husbands/boyfriends while covering current events and politics. Think “The View” only with Superhero spouses/partners. And that’s the whole comic.
    It would be called “DC Superview” DC could make an entire 250 issue run on this book especially when the characters have actually done it so many times in the 80+ year publishing history.

    For some reason the Thing proposal sounds like the comic version of a 3D soft body simulator... and Marvel You made me feel so depressed. The supervillains getting counselling from the hero is such a Freakazoid thing 😆 and Red Skull + Bubble Tea sounds like a Japanese commercial 😂 And the wolvie story made me want to burn my house down.

    The matter eating lad story could be like a metaphor for an addiction to drugs, alcohol, or porn. He knows its bad to eat humans, but he can't stop. And since it's 2021, instead of going to therapy and getting better, he refuses to go to therapy, he asks his friends for help, and he only get worse. The plot twist is that at the end, it turns out he died in the bathroom and has been hallucinating the whole thing. Y'know, like Mister Miracle.
    The sequel to the wolverine/namor story is a retcon of Thanos, but he's an incel disguised as a Chad. After being rejected by death, he gets inspired by the Red Skull's vlogs and he became an incel.
    I can't wait for a shopping story about Wonder woman, and Steve Trevor tags along, and he's pushing the shopping cart, and pointing out things to buy, and he looks like an absolute idiot because he has no knowledge about shopping. Wonder woman and women who pass by give each other looks and shake their heads smugly at the bumbling idiot Steve Trevor.
    I have a great idea. Power Pack, but they all have Tik Toks. And they use their powers and they reveal their secret identities, but no one notices.

      Or you could just make a female centered comic with a permanent butt-cam placement on all panels so you always see her rear in closeup. It would be an artistic challenge to manage to show the events in a good way through between the legs of a woman. It would also by default sell because it is anti-woke.

    Up to about 9 mins in I was like o. O What the hell is wrong with you. Also; cannibalism didn't really work well for the Ultimate editions. Just ask the blob. Oh, right... scratch that. Does it really Matter, if he eats 'em Lad?
    I think a comic from first person point of view might peeve some of the gamers off. Especially if they've come to take 3rd for granted. Cyberpunk'd, anyone? Hat's off to Joe for the troll though. Bravo. Also, also... please don't give anyone any more bright ideas. You know if they can get out of work and get more cash in their wallets besides...
    Also, what if you get a Thing from Asia. Would his best friend be like "I want to play, with Mai Thing A. Ling?" (They already tried it with the hulk. Who names their kid Asmodeus; did she hate him?)
    As to the Amazon bit, you know Diana only loses because she wants a day off. Seriously, if she actually tried every single one of those women would cry enough tears to fill the Hudson. Maybe she just wants to save her island's bills on kleenex. Besides, there's always the invisible jet that never seems to need fuel, she'd be like- "So... does anyone want some coconuts, I'm off to sip Mai thais in Barbados." (Freely admit I don't know how that drink is actually spelled, but it doesn't discount the joke. I hope)
    On that Thunderbolts idea with the NFT's... you guys just really want to self insert into a comic, huh? o. O (Can't blame you - I personally can't wait until science gets to make me Wolverine)
    So... rebrand the Avengers as F.R.I.E.N.D.S.? Who'd play Monica, who do we want to be Chandler. I vote spider woman for Phobe, since Jessica would need the Buffet. Do we turn Jeeves into Gunther then, constantly getting left out the loop as the ironic 'straight man' for the day? OOoh. I likes. Are they mind 'scrubbing' bubbles? In the tea. Is it a truth serum, to get him to spill the beans. Cool. Beans to the rescue; once again the not so jolly green giant saves the day! * Oh, you wanna play it like, Change change change, change to fools... everyone about the fact he's turned good. Brilliantly ebil master plan Perch.
    (You know it's bad when you use an Alan Moore picture to get the eyes saying, that's just so wrong) Everyone trying to make a quick buck off Watchmen, so... who wants a rolex?
    I'd go D, for daring to be dastardly, and disturbed. And there ain't no rest for the wicked, and money don't grow on trees... maybe every high level comic requires developed insomnia to finish? ; )
    I think it's Xena's globes I'd rather focus on myself... but maybe I'm just odd like that. Good job guys. All of this made me smile quite a lot.
    * Side note; with Wolverine and Namor teamed, do we call it the no joy, no lucks club, or Captain Blue Balls, with Hot Fuzz included. (If they needed a wing man, shoulda gone to Warren. He's got all the moneyz they could want) Nightcrawler would be the in, and out, and in, and out. Though he'd pop off far too quickly to get the job done. At least we know why he's got the biggest set of blue balls.

      In all honesty, wouldn't it work better to just have deals that let them incorporate brands and get cash for it? Like have a female super hero use and name her bag from a famous brand. Or have your heroes drinking a brand of coffee. Fly past a signboard advertising the next mobile app game. I feel like there is cash to be made here, while at the same time not bother any of the readers with reduced content.
