That was my own fault.
I read it in Wizard, because I had just finished the first GN, and wanted more, so I pulled out my stash of old WIZARD back issues, and the moment I saw “Preacher” I started reading.
trust me, I don’t know everything.
Preacher and Transmetropolitain are pretty good with the comedy.
The “DOOM COCK” scene with Starr and the scene with Cassidy where he wakes up in an alley screaming “Oh no! I’m a wanker, I’m a Wanker” are two classics.
Transmet is pretty much pure gold through out. Spider does so many drugs pretty much every page is hillarious.
God yes.
another lost soul won to the Machine that is Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Life.

Well, I just read Nextwave (still mainly new to comics) but I like a lot of the jokes there.
Anything comparable to it, fleshy ones?
The time I laugh the hardest in Nextwave was that little panel having Captain America telling Photon to go make him a sandwich.
Hehe. I myself laughed hardest when the the “unique robot intellect” was explaining how he was up with the Celestials for a year…and why he came back.
For me it has to be Quantum and Woody when they are doing the “Three Shakes” skit. I’ll see if I can scan an image.
You know what’s a great book that’s sort of similar in tone to Nextwave, is Doctor 13: Architecture and Morality. It’s quite possibly the best DC Universe comic since The New Frontier. I just read the Doctor 13 TPB and it’s mind-expanding and laugh-out-loud funny.
Like Nextwave, Doctor 13 grabs a bunch of no-name/obscure/forgotten characters and hilarity ensues upon their adventures and misadventures. Basically, Doctor Thirteen is an old DC character who is a skeptic of all things paranormal and supernatural - a mindset that obviously is hard to maintain considering he lives in a world that has people like Superman, the Spectre, and Wonder Woman.
The plot is about Dr. Thirteen and his daughter unraveling the mystery of existence while meeting up with crazy random characters like Genius Jones (cute little boy who can answer ANY question you ask him if you give him a dime), Infectious Lass (she can infect anyone with a disease), a ghost pirate with a flying pirate ship, and a talking Nazi gorilla. And more.
The writing is very witty and the art’s clean and crisp.
There were lots of great scenes in that book, but one of my favorites is during this one battle when Dr. Thirteen first encounters the talking Nazi gorillas. He starts talking about symbolism and then happens to fall down on table in the gorilla camp. Then in the next panel, he picks up a big banana, points it at his daughter (who has her mouth open), and explains, “Everything is a metaphor.”
Maybe you just gotta read it. http://www.amazon.com/Doctor-13-Architecture-Morality/dp/1401215521/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196312923&sr=8-1

The latest issue of Gold Digger. Brianna has a 4 1/2-foot-long powered cannon attached to her armor at the waist, extending from her pelvic area with a power cell slung beneath it on either side of the base of the barrel.
Penny: Could you change out of that, Brianna? I mean…you’re scaring me…really!
Brianna: That’s the problem, Penny! I can’t call a new armor from hyperspace storage!
Penny: Still…freaky Freud armor is freaky, Bri.
meanwhile, in the distance
Monty: Oi, “Kenny”. Y’see that weapon Brianna’s packin’? I think y’ve finally been defeated, 'eh?
Ryuuken (who weilds a 13-foot long, 3-foot wide blade): Very funny.
I was watching JL on DVD, and when it got to this scene, I just had to make a screengrab.
Guy Gardner mooning Batman…

Aww damn, I dunno where I saw it…
it’s a canon image, Batman and several other heroes are on the satellite, and Guy presses his bare cheeks against the window from outside.

Holy calamity, they made an audio book version of 52!! And it’s flippin’ hilarious. You can listen to two sound clips on that. Black Adam sounds like… Count Chocula.
