I hope Twice goes full Lobo and somehow the clones also can make more clones and they all end up fighting each other in a huge brawl.

Roland Jones posted:He clones himself, the clone clones itself, etc. I think you can even see at least one clone clearly making another on that last page. Oh snap, you just pointed out something to me that I somehow missed myself. I'd thought that Twice may have just 'upgraded' his quirk to the point of making multiple copies of himself at once, but if you look at the positioning of the various clones on the last page and their hand positions, they aren't just jojo posing for the moment, each of them are creating another one of the clones in a near-instantaneous chain explosion. That's even cooler, I think, that it's not that he can just spawn a bunch of clones now, he's just so confident and focused that the moment he creates a clone, they near-instantaneously create another one, etc etc etc, so it appears to be simultaneous to the naked eye.

It's neat that all three members of the League of Villains we've seen improve in this arc did it in different ways. Toga is the only one to actually power up her quirk, Shigaraki changed how he saw reality ("I'm touching a single person" to "all these people are one mass of dead") and Twice surpassed his fear and recovered the power we already knew he had. If all of them are getting something out of it, I hope this continues, it's more interesting than "I've unlocked this brand new power" over and over again.

GodFish posted:None on that either, he can make one clone of himself and one of his target. That clone does the same. No he stated he was limited to two clones at a time. The second is just weaker.

MonsterEnvy posted:No he stated he was limited to two clones at a time. The second is just weaker. Yes, but each of his clones of himself has the exact same quirk he does, with the ability to create two clones, the second of which is weaker. So long as each clone makes another Twice clone along the actual clone target, Twice can create infinite copies of anyone.

Maybe not mathematically infinite, even if just due to logistics, but certainly "an arbitrarily large number of clones."

Rhonne posted:My theory is that Deku is never going to be able to safely use his full strength without destroying his body, so he'll have to use the other quirks to compensate. I wish the movie had used another excuse for Deku to be able to use 100% of his power. Now every time he breaks or complains about it I'm just "GET MELISSA TO MASS PRODUCE THOSE drat BRACES!"

All he needs is for Hatsume to make him an ultra durable backpack to carry Eri around in and he's good.

If Twice created a clone of Gigantomachia, it would still be insanely durable. Now I want to see the league figuring out how to take Giga's measurements.

Remind me, is this the first time they've straight-up said Twice was a major supervillain before his breakdown? I always assumed he was a petty crook but it sounds like he was a known quantity before the whole clone massacre

Blockhouse posted:Remind me, is this the first time they've straight-up said Twice was a major supervillain before his breakdown? From what's depicted I'm pretty sure he never rose much above doing petty crime. But while one dude doing some thievery won't get you on most-wanted list, dozens of copies of the same dude committing crimes all over the place at the same time will get attention.

Just as significant as Twice's power boost (or recovery) seems to be his mental recovery, in that he appears to be acting with one voice and will again. Resolving his self-identity issue is a pretty major change for him as a character, and I wonder what it means for him going forward.

forget the puppets, chikazoku's going to need a gun to keep himself from harm now that twice has something to say "no" to his flunkies might look tough but all they are is dust and soon twice and toga will be the last living souls in that zone, and then chikazoku's surveillance cuts out and he's got no camera to see let's see him broadcast so raw and neatly when he's all alone in his factory far away

As far as I'm aware Alan Moore basically regrets Killing Joke because all the comics that are in it's style miss something that makes Killing Joke work better. Honestly as far as ideas go Joker being all about the one bad day that breaks someone is fine, and I wish people would do that instead of turning Joker into whatever loving crazy rear end in a top hat they need for the story to work.

PMush Perfect posted:This is the opposite of true. The only good thing to come out of Killing Joke (aside from some quotable lines and a few good concepts) is Oracle. Oracle (and Babs in general) is always the worst character in whatever team she ends up on though. She was always the least fun or interesting bat family member that wasn't beaten to death with a crowbar.
