If you'd have known of it from the beginning you'd have brought it up. You discovered it the same as I did, skimming through the issues. I'm pretty sure I saw the change in numbers (and thus them representing years) before you -which is what I mentioned that I wanted to upload-
So don't get all "I was right!!" with me, son.

Hence why you should know your god damned comics before start swinging your dick around.

That stance, unless supported by other evidence besides "it's 17 years later and it says EARTH 2020, it obviously means the year eventough it's a typical Earth designate from Marvel!" is a strawman stance.
You've simultaneously proven that you don't know what a strawman attack is, while using a strawman attack yourself.
Don't throw big words around if you don't know what they mean.
Originally posted by Kris BlazeI remembered it saying Earth 2020 and uploaded the scan. I interpreted it as meaning the Earth designate, based on the way Marvel cosmology usually works and the fact that it was written the way the alternate universes usually are. You interpreted it that way based on the fact that it's 17 years later after the events of 2003.

Once we started skimming throughout the issues we discovered that the number changed and it just happened that what you assumed was correct but not due to knowing what we both later discovered, unless you just happened to not mention it for the lulz.
So it's not a matter of "I know my Thor stuff and you don't!" but more of a matter of "we neither payed too much attention to the number detail, we each interpreted one thing differently and it just happens that upon closer inspection, we discovered that one of the others' interpretation is correct".

Interpreted it? There was no need for interpretation. I knew that it was in year 2020. I've read v2 a gazillion times. I naturally assumed that anyone stupid enough to try and get into a Thor-argument with me, would know their stuff. I did not need to start skimming things, I presented arguments in an order. You're claiming that I did not pay attention to the details, this is not true. I thought you would take my initial argument and leave it at that. When you claimed to be in possession of scans that proved yourself wrong, I posted them before you. Then I decided to get another scan.
End of story.

The implied meaning of the 'strawman stance' was that he is arriving to a conclusion based on insufficient evidence. True, I didn't use the definition that you're mentioning, but what I meant to express is still pretty clear for anyone reading the discussion.

Did I, at any point, imply that the story doesn't take place 17 years later -which is said in the very scan I uploaded- ? Did you at any point mention anything other than "It was written in 2003, and it takes place 17 years later, Earth 2020 means year 2020!" as an argument ? In fact you said it three times. Saying that you had knowledge of the fact that the the Earth # changes throughout the story -which was a very important fact- but choose to not say it makes you a liar.
In fact, in your first post, you weren't even sure that your interpretationw as true:

This is just sad.
And done.

Originally posted by willRulesyeah thor was pissed off in that issue.
Also in Avengers vol 3 issue 63, Thor dents Cap's shield and repairs it by the end of the issue.
...though i guess if i were a 'god' that was getting smacked around by a pretty-boy/alcoholic/womanizer [tony stark], i'd be pissed too.

Originally posted by john allerdycelets put it this way... krona's base power during that mini was sufficient to *easily* destroy entire universes.
What level of power should Krona have been at, at his height during the JLA/Avengers series?
then he went and added the following items to his arsenal:
-the IG
-the UN
-a cosmic cube
-eye of avalon
-casket of ancient winters
-the wand of watoomb
-the spear of destiny
-book of eternity
-medusa mask
-orb of ra
-artifacts of the demons three
-GL battery
ie. he should have been among the most powerful characters ever seen in comics [theoretically.]
Kris, Phil, just ask me when a question about Thor arises. You'll save yourself some time. Although that little discussion was amusing.

I got a question about a comic book, I think Whirly told me of. I can only remember the basic plot really, it was about an alien attack on earth and scientists finding some sort of serum that gives a small percentage of humans superpowers but they die because of it after a while (like roughly a year or so) and it was apparently about them fighting back against the aliens for earth. Does anyone by chance know that comic?
Bumping this cause no one knew or cared the first time around.
PLEEEEASE help me cry
