If you dig up your back issues of Crazy Magazine (Marvel's answer to "Mad"), there was a feature during the last 3-4 years called "Teen Hulk". I think it was spelled "Nertz" back then, and usually happened whenever the hero had back luck (which was all the time.)<BR/><BR/>I'll claim my No-Prize now. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552592499429040671.post-30616313574404740962008-03-16T03:04:00.000-03:002008-03-16T03:04:00.000-03:00he first used the phrase (to the best of my very extensive x-knowledge) in the original wolverine mini by Claremont.Sazyskihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02225971874891905046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552592499429040671.post-19714961900280789052008-03-15T19:02:29.066-03:002008-03-15T19:02:29.066-03:00@daniel woburn - holy crap, that's awesome. I just thought it was a made up word for their battle cry. From google define:<BR/><BR/><B>defenestrate - Historically, defenestration is the act of throwing someone or something out of a window.<BR/></B><BR/><BR/>Knowing that now and having him say that while coming through the window makes that scene that much better. Nice catch Daniel.Kirk Warrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00458175001451977684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552592499429040671.post-82398262614210271902008-03-15T13:42:00.000-03:002008-03-15T13:42:00.000-03:00what makes that Defenders panel even more funny is that "Defenestrate" means "break a window".Daniel Woburnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552592499429040671.post-80552369606653903482008-03-15T11:23:00.000-03:002008-03-15T11:23:00.000-03:00I'm actually enjoying this "old" New Warriors story a hell of a lot more than the "new" New Warriors story. Which should tell you about the nosedive that book took after its debut. Another random question...how do read that huge stack of comics AND post reviews within a day. It'll take me 3 or 4 days to get through the same stack!Brother129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552592499429040671.post-45911069905975158802008-03-14T23:11:00.000-03:002008-03-14T23:11:00.000-03:00The guy in Last Defenders is Blazing Skull from the Invaders.<BR/><BR/>ZOMG, I almost died when I read what Dr Doom said to Stark. I'm waiting your CBM every week, but sometimes I think I should spare me some awesome moments like this for when I'll buy the trades.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
