I saw my old colleague Chris Cooper in the news — some half-baked racist woman tried to have him killed by cops in Central Part . I knew Chris when we were both at Marvel . He was a adorable guy wire , and I enjoy his company immensely . We definitely got slimly drunk together at a Marvel summit out in Glen Cove . I always like him a lot . He did one of the funniest things I ever pick up at my prison term at Marvel . Back then , Marvel would release a summer book call the Marvel Swimsuit Issue , which was exactly as awful as you think it is . What they used to call " devotee service " and " good girl artwork . "
Except one year Chris Cooper somehow get detention of it . And that year ’s issue was the gayest thing you ever saw . Like , gaydar installations all over the Northern Hemisphere just straight up burst into flames . Anyone who beheld that book from a distance of twenty feet became , by genetic examination , 3 % gayer . It was so fucking funny , it was so not what Marvel did at the prison term , and it was so well played .
Chris , wherever you are , I go for life is becoming more peaceful .
That ’s an incredible story from Ellis featuring some astonishing phraseology and word choices ( you ’d gestate no less from Ellis ) . " Anyone who beheld that book from a length of twenty feet became , by transmissible testing , 3 % gayer , " is absolutely hilarious . If you ’re queer what he means , here are a couple of the peg - ups from the series ' fourth issue . Here ’s Bobby Drake ’s Iceman making some ice for his swallow while in a speedo .
Here ’s the Human Torch get into barbeque time of year in his own special path .
extolment to Ellis for writing the alphabetic character support his friend and also for telling this amazing fib . Marvel ’s Swimsuit Specialis for everyone to relish , so the pin - ups are more than appropriate . Cooper merit serious acknowledgment for sneaking past Marvel ’s higher - ups and realize the issue as festive as possible . It ’s a fabled story behind an absolutely atrocious miniseries fromMarvel Comics .
