Engineering Failures – Part 1

I think a better question would be why he programmed your robot dog for nausea too.

Today’s example of questionable coding has been brought to you by Mega Man #43 (January 2015) by Ian Flynn, Powree, and Gary Martin.

And so another year of blogging draws to a close on The Raging Fanboy. A big thank you to all my subscribers, both old and new, for continuing to visit. Please feel free to spread the word and encourage others to visit my little corner of the Internet, as it would be a nice surprise for my blog to experience an increase in traffic for the first time since 2012 by the end of next year. 😦

See you all in 2015! 🙂

Christmas Overdrive

If you think the anticipation and anxiety that regular people experience during the holiday season is bad, imagine having to go through it while possessing the power of super-speed.

Costume Hijinks – Part 9

You know, between this time and last time, I’m pretty sure that Supergirl‘s fashion sense died with Argo City and the rest of the planet Krypton.

Yeesh, just because you’re out to stop a dangerous fanatic, doesn’t mean that you have to dress the part.

Today’s fashion disaster was ripped from the pages of Adventure Comics #415 (February 1972) by John Albano, Len Wein, Dave Wood, Carmine Infantino, Gray Morrow, Win Mortimer, Bob Oksner, and George Roussos.
