Praise Thor!

This is probably the first topical strip I’ve ever done on Montgrave. Usually my jokes are about things that happened ten years ago or more but this was just to goofy for me not to do a comic about.

Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t have a particularly strong opinion about Ryan Reynolds because typically he is featured in movies that you couldn’t bribe me into watching. The last thing I saw him in was Wolverine and I don’t feel like anybody in that movie should really be held personally responsible for the awful decisions that must have been made since day one in order to allow such a travesty to unfold. I can even accept the fact that, well, to put it homoerotically, he is just pretty and ripped enough to actually look like a superhero is drawn. But I mean COME ON! Hal Jordan? Really?

Either they’ve decided to turn the ever-stoic Hal Jordan into a wisecracking frat boy or we’re all about to fall victim to the horrific display that will undoubtedly be Ryan Reynolds attempting to act. Seriously. I mean did somebody at DC just sign the wrong slip of paper? David S. Goyer was working on a Flash project back in 2004 where he wanted Double R-Dog to play Wally West in what would have been a totally respectable move…but Green Lantern? Kinda a dumb decision guys.

Well, since what’s done as done I think at least we can be thankful that his name is off the market for the role of Superman which will be opening up soon when Brandon Routh’s contract expires. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for Sam Jackson (If you doubted that casting for one second you’re probably racist)!
