Like Dasoldskool said,

These images were taken from the into to a flash game called Blue Beetle Attacks.

The old link is:

Seems DC has since removed the game...

Read this about a month ago and absolutley loved it.

There are so many pages where if you look hard enough you start to see all sorts of eerie faces among the leaves, water drops, clouds etc. Its he subtleties that really made this book for me! Great choice!

@conor and @josh: Part of what makes Love and Rockets such an amazing series is the evolution of its content, particularly with Jaime's work. It starts out filled with sci-fi and supernatural events, but Jaime and the readers soon became more interested in the characters' personal lives and not the events surrounding them. The series followed this and left most of the sci-fi stuff behind. I'm sure you've heard this before, but I just wanted to reiterate that the start of Love and Rockets does not paint the whole picture.

Anyway, no comic is for everyone! Love and Rockets is one of my personal favorites and I'm just glad when people give it a try! :)

"I'll get crap for this, but I barely made it a few pages into the first Love and Rockets collection before I decided to walk away.  "

 Very shocked to hear that, but whatever floats your boat Josh!

 What have the others' reactions to Love and Rockets been like?

@RoiVampire

Yeah, that akes more sense. I just suddenly thought I'd struck gold looking at the image and got a bit too excited. Not that the return of Clint as Hawkeye isnt awesome enough!

Look at Hawkeye's Arm - looks like bucky's arm.

I think Bucky will be taking up the role of Hawkeye and Steve is still Captain America, just with the new costume.

I'm officially excited by this, lots of my favorite characters seen in that picture. Part of me wishes for a much smaller team though but if that's the roster I'm sure it will be great.

I'm looking forward to some simple good guys versus zaney bad guy, no strings attatched fun.

Super fun,

Loved the "He's not even fighting anything" line.

Keep thinking about it and laughing to myself (trying to hold it in), which is super awkward as I'm sat in a quiet library right now...
