@Shiebs a twitter user.
Well obviously but it made it sound like she’s writing the comics in that tweet and I was wondering if she’s a Marvel comics writer or am I missing something

Just look how not hard it was to build from the fall of Krakoa something good instead of back to square zero
Who is Emmatalkscomics ?
@Deicide said in Official Egghead Thread:
@Shiebs I think a color spread after it is more likely. If I'm not mistaken, there were no colorspreads in the first chapter of a volume, and 1112 seems like Vol 110's opener. (Someone correct me if wrong)
Do you think the next Color Spread will be an homage/tribute to Akira Toriyama?
Do we think when the next chapter comes out we’ll get another Color Spread since there’s a break?
Anyone seeing the new movie anytime soon?
@Time-Control-Magician said in Movies that don't deserve their own thread:
They made a sequel?
Like I get the original was low budget but why?
Oh it gets worse, there making an entire shared universe off this
@Kitsune-Inferno said in Official Egghead Thread:
So what you're saying is that Prince Loki is going to fall madly in love with Luffy.
I’m actually very excited to see how Loki reacts to Luffy, especially now with the whole Nika sun god thing, and if he doesn’t like Luffy how will that effect the GiantPirates and the new giant pirates relationship with Luffy? Loki is the king of the giants, I don’t know how much the giant pirates respect that title though

@Shiebs Smoker feels to me like someone who would have made sense to join the SHs... in 2012. Not now.
I’m not sure Smoker ever made sense as a Straw Hat, he’s supposed to be one of the good marines in the civil war that will inevitably unfold
I guess Aokiji did it with the Black Beard Pirates so who knows but outside of giving the Straw Hats a logia I don’t know what purpose he would serve
Unless Vegapunk’s message to the world really rattles him that badly I highly doubt it
I am definitely wondering where and when he will make his grand return
I would expect Urouge to come back into play when enel does, they are the same race right?
Do you think the guy confronting Cha is the strongest member of the Po Bidau family?
Dumas is number 3
Proust is number 2
But I have a feeling that other guy is number 1
Unless it’s just Po Bidau Gustang or the princess Eurasia Enne Zahard
I wonder what Dorry and Brogy’s relationship to Loki is? He’s king of the giants right? Does that mean the giant pirates (or the new giant pirates) obey him?
Luffy used the number 56 on his bat this last chapter
You know what that means!
2.9 devil fruit theory is alive and kicking
Is the second season coming out anytime soon?
If they are bringing back old fighting games they should really bring back Bloody Roar
Do we think Elbaf is the next arc since the giants are literally here to save the Strawhats? Or will Oda pull another Drum Island/Punk Hazard?
And do you guys think Saul is at Elbaf?
Anyone know why they decided to give Black Tom Cassidy plant powers?
Is Scar King from something or is he a totally new character
Just backed the new secret project
Totally agree! I’m so sick of Hulk clones, SpiderMan clones, Wolverine clones and Venom clones
Glad someone said it!
We need new ideas
I’m very excited to see where this new cover story is going
I want all 10 plushies
Dragon Ball Daima is still coming out this year right?
Ryan Gosling needs to be donquixote doflamingo
Also super happy for Emma Stone, I’m a huge fan of hers

Also has anyone read 3 Body Problem?
I tried a few years ago but it is VERY hard sci-fi, and cares way more about the science than the characters.
A lot of the dialogue is
character 1:"ramble for a super long paragraph"
character 2: short rhetorical question
character 1: Ah yes I'm glad you brought that up, here's another super long paragraph"so I had a hard time getting invested in it so I didn't finish it.
Also lots of philosophy monologues.
Like this is an excerpt from the first chapter.
“That’s not very insightful.”
“Let me be more specific: The universe is a hollow sphere floating in the middle of a sea of fire. There are numerous tiny holes in the surface of the sphere, as well as a large one. The light from the sea of flames shines through these holes. The tiny ones are stars, and the large one is the sun.”
“That’s a very interesting model.” Wang looked at the giant copper sphere
again and guessed at its purpose. “But there’s a problem with your theory. When the sun rises or sets, we can see its motion against the background of fixed stars. But in your hollow sphere, all the holes remain in fixed positions relative to eachother.”“Correct! That’s why I’ve modified my model. The universal sphere is made
of two spheres, one inside the other. The sky we can see is the surface of the
inner sphere. The outer sphere has one large hole while the inner sphere has
many small holes. The light coming through the hole in the outer sphere is
reflected and scattered many times in the space between the two spheres, fillingit with light. Then the light comes in through the tiny holes in the inner sphere,and that’s how we see the stars.”And it goes on like that like 10 more times in that same conversation.
It gets a lot of comparisons to Asimov and that's a pretty fair assesment. But that said I have been looking forward to the filmed version because show, not tell, probably make it all more digetable, and it's supposed to be really good, I just couldn't get past the style.
Thanks Robby! I’ll just wait for the show then thank you!
I know Robby posted the video but I’m also posting the link here just incase anyone missed it

Getting good reviews
Apparently Warner Brothers is doubling down on live service games and getting away from single player experience games despite the bombshell that was Suicide squad Kill the Justice league and the gigantic success of Hogwarts Legacy
Dragon Ball Daima is going to hit differently now
Really hope it’s well done as his last project we know of, I wonder if he finished it
Sorry to see him go, he built the whole foundation of modern day anime/manga
A true legend
Is Dragon Ball Daima officially the last thing he worked on then?
Same age my father is next month, really sad
Are we going to see the Void history? Is that what Vegapunk is going to show people? I always assumed we’d see that at Laugh Tale

I still think Bonney's crew status entirely depends on Kuma's outcome. If he dies then I would give it a 90% because she has nowhere to really go after that (unless the Revos show up and she wants to go their way for some reason). If Kuma lives then she has a 0% chance because she'll always pick her father over anyone else, even Nika.
I don’t get why ppl think Kuma is still alive. Especially if Vegapunk is dead dead.
Because he's not dead yet. They've commented on how his mind should be wiped and yet he keeps getting up and moving and acting whenever he needs to protect Bonney. And they've now removed him from the action with the Giants. So unless Saturn or Kizaru manages to get back to Bonney and Kuma gets back up and jumps back into the fray to protect her, he's getting out of this 'alive'.
Basically, if Kuma makes it out of Egghead Island itself, then that counts as him being alive, even if he is still in his vegetable state.
You said he keeps getting up as if he has got up again.
He showed up, protected his daughter and then dropped dead. He’s been carried around ever since showing no signs of life.
The way I interpreted things were his special nature as a buccaneer allowed him to keep going but not indefinitely. It’s not like the shitting him down had no effect or didn’t work at all.
Kuma’s body getting out of this doesn’t point to him being alive after this. At best maybe he gets one more goodbye but I kinda doubt even that.
This is actually wrong. When Kizaru cut the lift in half and the pacifistas were about to shoot th
All I said was he protected his daughter and dropped dead. You just talked about that in detail.
Also it’s false to say any time Bonney is in danger Kuma acts. Kizaru was going to shoot Bonney and Sanji saved her. Not Kuma. When Vice Admiral Tosa was going to attack Bonney as they were escaping it wasn’t Kuma that moved it was the giants. So I’m not sure where you’re getting any time Bonney is in danger Kuma acts. He hasn’t moved for a while now.
As far as leaving egghead with any other Punks, Stella entrusted Bonney to Luffy knowing that Kuma can’t and is most likely dead.
Nah. In both of those instances, we are not shown Kuma in panel. As far as it has been established to us by Oda, Kuma will have moved to protect Bonney in those instances but Oda showed us someone else beating him to the punch (Sanji and Brogy).
If Kuma has already died, Oda would've made a much bigger show of it.
I imagine Oda would be the sort to leave Kuma a little bit of humanity to say some famous last words in the event of death.
Exactly. If Kuma is dying then he's doing so in a big memorable and iconic way, like sacrificing himself to take out Saturn, while telling Bonney that he loves her.
Nah he’s joining
You know who I’d love to join but never will is, Katakuri
