Yeah, it was after that scene that I stopped buying Hulk altogether. A full on blow from Mjolnir to his skull and he just shrugs it off. Seriously...

You seriously should. They're both excellent reads.

Anyways it was really weird.

Indeed it was. Done to show us how far off the deep end he had gone. Even painted teeth over his lips lol

Yes he should! I had the individual issues and had to buy the hardcovers for posterity. I think DD is my favorite of the two but they're both great!

So you think Osborn painted his face to look like The Green Goblin, then? I think The Clown Knight's take was that this was more a metaphorical representation of his insanity and that others didn't see the green and purple, just how contorted his face and voice were.

I didnt take it like that at all...especially given the shocked look on their faces.

And here I was hoping it stood for
Ham
And
Mayo
Maybe
Even

I believe that his face is painted.

This is how I read it. Norman painted his face before donning the armor. Who knows, he may have been doing this for a while.

While I'm here, great reviews fellas. Brave & The Bold was the nicest comic surprise I've had in a long while.
Joe, you're right...the story did have an almost horror-comic edge to it that I'm attributiing to The Demon's presence. I think Straczynski, being the good writer he is, set the feel of the book intentionally to make the Demon's vibe permiate the story through plot and mood.
