Marvel Drinking Game

[Ben Urich]

Some things happen so often in Marvel comics that, well, it'd be remiss if there wasn't a drinking game to go with them. Who wants to get wasted?
Here are my ideas:

- Read any comic featuring Psylocke. Do a shot every time she mentions that her knife is "the focused totality of [her] mental powers."

- Read any comic featuring Daredevil. Do a shot if his love interest dies.

- Read Ultimate Spider-Man. Do a shot every time Peter gets unmasked.

- Read Nextwave. Do a shot every time Warren Ellis spoofs something. Keep in mind that Dirk Anger is supposed to be Nick Fury.

- Do a shot whenver anything from Grant Morrison's run on X-Men is retconned out.

- Read any Bendis-written Spider-Man book. Do a shot for each word in Yiddish. (Oy counts, too).

- Read Astonishing X-Men. Do a shot for each time Wolverine gets the best line.

- Read any Bendis book. Do a shot each time there's a weak action scene.

Wanna get super wasted?
- Read a book drawn by David Finch. Do a shot each time the art is so bad you want to claw your eyes out.
Yeah I don't like David Finch's art.

Okay, those are mine. What can you all come up with?

- Whenever wolverine shows up as a "guest" in any comic
- Whenever Prof. X gains/loses use of his legs
- Whenever you see a superheroine/villainess who looks like she should fall over from being so "top-heavy"
- Whenever a supervillain says something along the lines of "I'm unstoppable" or "nothing can save you now"

 

[The Question]

Another Astonishing X-Men one: Do a shot every time Logan sounds like Spike from Buffy.

 

[iloveclones]

Whenever Spider-Girl reminds us that her full name is May "Mayday" Parker.

Whenever Peter Parker thinks about how he loves Mary Jane "more than the air he breathes" (or some variation)

Whenever Luke Cage tells us his skin is unbreakable.

Take a shot knowing what you know about Wanda now!

Play all these games to be in the right frame of mind when someone gets it in their head to show us Aunt May and Jarvis making out. Or worse.

Another Astonishing X-Men one: Do a shot every time Logan sounds like Spike from Buffy.

Oh, God. I never realized this. He does sound like Spike.

-Do a shot for every late book this month.
-Do a shot every time Spider-Woman is in a scene just to provide an ass-shot
-Do a shot every time Dan Slott uses continuity better than everyone else.

-Do a shot for every late book this month.

I already have my commemorative bottle of Ultimates MadDog 20/20

-Do a shot every time Dan Slott uses continuity better than everyone else.

I'm already wasted.

Holy crap, if I followed any of these, I would be dead from severe alcohol poisoning.

Okay mine:

Take a shot every time Iron Man's armor solves everything through equipment never seen in a book before.

Take a shot every time the heroes in a Bendis written book have their fight won for them by someone else who shows up at the last second.

Take a shot every time Marvel cancels a well written book. Two shots for every month they allow a book with TERRIBLE writing to continue.

Take a shot everytime Spider-Man has a LIFE CHANGING EVENT!

 

[KevanG]

Take a shot everytime Spider-Man has a LIFE CHANGING EVENT!

You know if you started from Amazing Fantasy #15 when he first appeared and continued until today, you would more than likely have consumed enough alcohol to kill half the planet

 

[Doc Destruction]

True, but it's really ramped up recently.

 

[Darthphere]

Take a shot everytime they mention Gwen in a Spider-Man title.

 

[Elijya]

Do a shot every time a character reminds us of their origin/motivation (i.e., whenever Spider-Man talks about responsibility, or the X-Men mention how people "hate and fear" them)

 

[iloveclones]

Doc, that's a great avatar. Where did you find it?

 

[kytrigger]

Do a shot every time Dr. Doom refers to himself in the third person.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Doc, that's a great avatar. Where did you find it?

Myspace somewhere

 

[Darthphere]

Also, as a collector of some sort, please dont spill your alcoholic drinks on the comic.

 

[bored]

-Do a shot for every time Bendis writes at least half a page of one-to-three word sentences, and nothing else.

-Do a shot for every time you notice something that was clearly taken from the movie.

-Do a shot for every pop-culture reference in ANY Ultimate title (for health purposes, avoid Bendis-written books).

-Do a shot for every time it is revealed that Deadpool is wearing women's undergarments.

 

[Darthphere]

For all the non alcoholics here, do a shot everytime Thor shows up in a comic book.

lol

 

[DBM]

Do a shot every time Dr. Doom refers to himself in the third person.

Nice one.


Do a shot for every panel in a Bendis comic that has nothing but a close up of someone talking. (We're going to be trashed half-way through one issue of USM)

 

[Roughneck]

do a shot for every cover that has nothing at all to do with the story.

 

[Darthphere]

Take a shot for every extra muscle Rob Liefeld draws.

 

[Gilpesh]

Take a shot whenever something huge affects the entire Marvel Universe.

 

[kytrigger]

Take a shot for every extra muscle Rob Liefeld draws.

Does that include extra fingers too?

 

[Darthphere]

Does that include extra fingers too?

Sure why not.

 

[bored]

-Do a shot for every issue of "New Avengers" which prominently features Wolverine on the cover, only for him to either appear for a panel or two inside, or not at all.
