The Best Stuff In Comics: 2-2-15

This is where we present to you, the other best stuff besides the best covers, best story arcs, and best snack to eat while watching a big sporting event.

This used to be a VIDEO FEATURE for over one hundred episodes. We've changed the format to a text version as most seem to prefer it this way. And don't forget to take the poll at the end.

Each week we take a look at the other Best Stuff you might have missed...this week.

DEADPOOL #41

Best Possible Street Fighter Cameo

Deadpool's been in a little funk since becoming inverted and then reverted to his former self. He decided to accept a mission and one of the guys in charge has a hairstyle very similar to Guile from the Street Fighter games.

BATMAN #38

Best "You Should See The Other Guy" Moment

Jim Gordon needs to invest in some better locks. This is the second time Joker has made his way into his home to catch him off guard. Last issue Jim shot Joker but it seemed Joker got better real fast and left something behind with Jim before leaving.

Ouch.

Best Bathing Suit This Week

It also can be labeled as the Creepiest bathing suit this week. F

For some reason, Joker decided to go out for a swim. He's wearing an old-timey swimming suit. Looks really really creepy. Not a sight you'd want to see coming your way.

NOVA #26

Best Way to Dodge the Fact You Revealed Your Name to a Super-Powered Serial Killer

During Axis, heroes and villains were inverted. That means heroes turned into villains and vice versa. Sam Alexander spent some time working with Carnage, who had become a bit of a hero. Sam made the mistake of revealing his real name and now Cletus Kasady has come to visit.

HARLEY QUINN #14

Best Depiction of a Rough Morning

Harley lives a strange life. In this issue, we get a glimpse of what it's like when she wakes up. The one page alone is pretty revealing.

THOR #4

Best Reason Not to Tap Thor on the Chest with Mjolnir

Thor Odinson finally confronts the new wielder of Mjolnir. Obviously he's not too happy. Then he gets tapped on the chest. That's going to make things even worse.

Best Kiss Between Two Characters With the Same Name

So Thor isn't Thor anymore? The new character is Thor? Why are they kissing? It's not because of what you might think (if you haven't read the issue). There is a reason. You can see the former Thor is a little surprised.

SPIDER-MAN AND THE X-MEN #2

Best Creepy Attempt at a Kiss

Sometimes you just need to say no.

Sauron is attempting to kiss Shark-Girl.

Ew.

DEATHSTROKE #4

Best Way to Ride a Train

Let's make it clear, we do not condone, encourage, or support riding trains this way. You have to either have superpowers or be a bit unbalanced in the head. But look at how much fun Harley is having.

SECRET AVENGERS #12

Best Reason Not to Text While Drunk

M.O.D.O.K. has some explaining to do. Actually, that's exactly what he's doing. He's laying it all out for Hawkeye and Agent Coulson. We find out how Deadpool recently got involved in the series a few issues back.

There was absolutely no way I could not post a pic of drunk M.O.D.O.K. this week.

Best Poll of the Week

Last week the poll if you ever told someone "come with you if they want to live" in a Terminator-type voice. You can check out the rest of the results HERE.

This week, we want you to come clean about your duck-facing urges.

(Note: if you get a "session expired" notice, refresh the page).

That's all I came up with this week. Let us know in the comments below what other Best Stuff you dug this past week. Thanks to @djfanco, Mat Elfring, and Gregg Katzman. If you want to participate or felt we missed some other Best Stuff, you can @reply me on Twitter at @GManFromHeck by Fridays using the hashtag #BestStuffInComics and I'll think you're pretty groovy.

Let us know what you think of this format. Answer the poll question. Be sure to always look for the best stuff and try to use the duck-face only when fully required..
