✅ Some #SteveGerber runs that I read/reviewed/rated. And the average rating (out of 10).

✅ Bear in mind that many are NOT exclusively Gerber, so other writers affect the averages. (Particularly true of Shanna and Morbius.)

I just finished #Defenders #46 and, consequently, the bizarre “story” of Elf with a Gun. In brief, Elf with a Gun was a random Elf who showed up in a few issues and murdered someone. Then, in #46, he got run over by a truck. I thought to myself “Somebody *has* to have written about this.” And I was right. Here’s a fuller explainer of Elf with a Gun and some nice bits about creator #SteveGerber:

I swear my replies to all of your threads won’t be #SteveGerber -related in some way but this time it can’t be helped! I have to go with the #Marvel / #Image crossover in which Gerber and #ErikLarsen conspired to steal #HowardTheDuck from the corporate giant and replaced him with decoys, with the assistance of #SavageDragon and #DestroyerDuck . Read about it here:

indiependent.co.uk/marvels-how

Between Gambit and Spider-Man posing for the cameras Howard the Duck is chomping on a cigar and saying, “You got a problem with that?”Savage Dragon and Destroyer Duck are jumping through a window with impractical guns blazing.An Image Comics parody of the cover to Howard the Duck #1 entitled “LEONARD THE DUCK” with the tagline “WHIRLED IN A TRAP HE NEVER MADE!”

CAPTION 1:
“BECAUSE YOU DEMANDED IT…THE REVISIONIST FIRST ISSUE OF IMAGE'S DUCK OF A DIFFERENT COLOR!”

The Duck on the cover looks remarkably like Howard except he wears glasses and a brown suit instead of red and, oh yes, he wields instead of a sword a bathroom plunger. His girlfriend also looks similar but instead of a redhead she is a brunette. The “guest star” too looks like Spider-Man but with a crab on his head.

CAPTION 2:
“AMID AN EMPIRE IN RUIN LEONARD PLUNGES INTO BATTLE AGAINST THE AGING SPIDER-CRAB!”

So here you have Nebulon yelling all mad at an equally angry Bambi deer, just because it tapped his dimension-spanning power, and snatched him away from his battle with The Defenders. Or, just another day at the #SteveGerber run on #TheDefenders.

Two panels from The Defenders v 1 # 35. First panel is Nebulon yelling all mad at an equally angry Bambi deer, just because it tapped his dimension-spanning power, and snatched him away from his battle with The Defenders. The second panels display the very angry deer head.

Today's #ShakeYourCLZ #random #comicbook generator. That time Steve Gerber sued #MarvelComics over the rights to #HowardtheDuck and needing a fundraiser for legal fees, convinced #JackKirby and Alfredo Alcala to illustrate his stories of an anti-corporate cigar-chomping duck commando vs. the evil GODCORP. Good times.

The cover of Destroyer Duck #2 by Jack Kirby and Alfredo Alcala. The marauding mallard, Destroyer Duck crouched on top of a building with guns at the ready. Medea stands behind, with her fearsome forks of fury. The dislocated spine coils slightly below.Splash page to DD #2:

"MOMMIE NOISES"

"It is the mistaken opinion of Duke "Destroyer" Duck that his mission to the world of pink primates has been accomplished. Ned Packer...President of GODCORP, Ltd. and murderer of Duke's best friend, the Little Guy...is dead. Holmes, the Little Guy's attorney, has filed suit against GODCORP, alleging everything from monopolistic trade practices to vivisection of sapient life-forms. So Duke builds a new nega-space transport for his journey home...unaware that death (or it's duly-appointed agent) has drawn a bead on his feathered skull!"
