The Periodic Table of Comic Book Elements

Ender, Duke_of_URL brought this Periodic Table of Elements to our attention. Of course adamantium is missing, and chemical X doesn't belong in a table of the elements of the comic book universe, it's mostly a collection of golden age and later comics. Modern comics are sorely underrepresented, unfortunately.

You, Sir, are a geek.

Whoa! Cool.

[funkhauser]

I walk by that guys office twice a week.

Slashdot hits home. It's scary.

Re:Whoa! Cool.

[Wanker]

If he's his own sysadmin, you should walk over there now to hear him cursing while his server gets slashdotted into oblivion.

Post MP3's if you get 'em. :-)

Thulium?

[PopeAlien]

What about thulium

All it says there is GLUG! sorry no comics yet for this element..

I wonder if I should rush out and make a thulium comic and take my place in history. Hm.

Probably not.

State of education at Univ of KY

[dolphin558]

LOL Instead of doing research on important groundbreaking issues in Chemistry, the Wildcats of KYU are goofin off with comic books while "experimenting" with the chemicals around the lab. LOL

BOOM!

Looks like that server needs an injection of dontcrashium... :P

Holy spelling mistakes, batman!

Did you type that with your nose there, Mr. chrisd?

Where Is Explodium?

[EXTomar]

Explodium: The element that most bad guy armies make their crafts and mecha out of. It is cheap so they can make a million of them for every one good guy unit. The problem is that they have this property to explode in a colorful and violent way(which films incrediably well). The Zion(Gundam) and the Empire(Star Wars) invest heavly in this element and base entire fleets off the stuff.

Slashdotium

[quantaman]

In its native form this element is deposited on computers all over the internet, is largely harmless and considered fairly trivial. However the presence a web site known as "slashdot" causes this element to ionize and it is than attracted to this site. This ion permeates quickly through broad band and rapidly builds up at this site creating a large positive charge. Often small web sites linked to this "slashdot" will serve as an outlet to these ions and they will accumulate on the smaler site until it reaches critical mass. At this point the web site collapses under the weight and the rate at which the ion transfers slows down noticeably, eventually the process is complete the ions will slowly migrate back to "slashdot". Invariably this process will repeat its destructive cycle indefinitely.

The obvious concern: 'Si'

[Nathdot]

The comic listing for silicon should be:

* Every comic book drawn by a man that has a female character(s)

If you've ever read Jim Balent's 'Catwoman'... I mean come on... How the fuck am I meant to believe she shimmies up buildings with the slightest of ease. I have trouble believing she walks upright without a back brace.

Re:The obvious concern: 'Si'

[radja]

maybe she has a strange mutation that has turned her nipples into small suction cups...
