A couple of other irritants:
1)
"Let's execute plan S." (Splitting up)
"Let's start operation H" (capturing the Hulk)
and so on

2)
Panel 1: A charcter says:"This door won't stop us for long"
Panel 2: Caption "Exactly 15 seconds later" (picture of crumpled door)

And what about all "carbon copy" that appear now and than!?!

Is 'Yodatalk' grammatically wrong in English? I ask because in Portuguese although the most used way to put words is the same as in English (most times at least), almost all Yodatalk isn't wrong as we can replace words in many ways without grammar errors. Sure there are a few rules, but in general the way yoda speaks is ok, and sounds very imponent/respectfull too..

About titles, I just guess that's the least thing they worried about, creating it "at the last split second" :lol: .

Man, don't even get me started. I am now boycotting cardboard because of Stan. hahaha Those characters must have had the lowest self esteem ever..."look what I can do mom!!" "Aren't you proud of me dad?" "look!! look!! Give me some attention and tell me how I'm the best superhero!" haha It kind of seemed to fit with less intelligent characters such as Thing or Hulk (without Banner intellect), but then Reed mentions that Ben has multiple degrees in one issue?! Kind of works with Torch and Spidey because of their age. Seems out of place with the adult geniuses though.

One of my favorite Stan-isms is the way his characters all exclaim how easy it is for them to do things. It's always like, "With my strength I can tear through this door as though it were cardboard!" or "How easy it is for me to fly up here using my transistors!" or "Defeating the Fantastic Four is child's play for one of my intellect!"

The phrases "...as though it were [cardboard, paper, etc]", "How easy it is for me to [insert action]", and "[insert action] is child's play..." must appear once per issue, it seems.

I can't stand the "Yodaspeak" titles. Observe the formula:
"When/Where" followed by "verb" then "villain."
TtA #79 "When Rises the Behemoth"
ToS #73 "Where Walks the Sleeper"
ASM #36 "When Falls the Meteor"
ASM #44 "Where Crawls the Lizard"
Just to name a few...
Ooooooooo, bad grammar makes it more dramatic!
