Wait, wasn't "Shitpiece" just a gag from the blooper video, or are you telling me that actually made it to the air in a children's cartoon?

It wasn't a blooper video it was this dr smoov video where he just does all the voices over the old cartoon footage. It was not on the cartoon. DoctorDelaware posted:The movie is a goddamn masterpiece. The movie does have one thing going for it over the comics as you have to provide your own hair metal soundtrack (James Roberts does provide soundtracks for the issues he writes that you can find on tfwiki, but it's mostly indie music not hair metal)

OK Octopus posted:If you can please help me, I'd really appreciate it. I read a panel on here once about loss and how it was like being told you could never see the ocean again. How it didn't matter that it was there and you had memories of it, you'd never get to see it. This from a couple pages and over a month ago, but I'd like to second this request.

Ooof. I was catching up with this thread just after hearing that my uncle had died. While I wasn't close to my uncle, my dad just lost his older bro, who had literally always been there since he was born. I thought based on OK Octopus's description that maybe it might be a nice thing to send him... But while it fits "touching", it sure ain't "inspiring". My mom died earlier this year, and that's exactly what it Nevertheless, thanks for your searching, redbackground! Much obliged. JESUS CAN WE GET SOME "INSPIRING" IN HERE, STAT, BEFORE PHYLODOX AND I MELT DOWN ANY MORE Gonna re-read those Batgirl panels, I really enjoyed those.

Fine, here let's all enjoy that harbinger of joy, Batman! But no really, here's an abbreviated look at Detective Comics Annual #3, a book I like a lot. Background: Batman's hunting a bunch of arms traffickers. Batman then proceeds to track down the father in disguise since Batman has a sore spot about fathers (btw I love that Batman's disguise of Matches Malone is just him in a mustache and it somehow still works). Later, Bats checks up on the lead from Aden (the kid) and the tip checks out... This next part probably belongs in the badass thread, but since the dirtbag didn't take the bait, it's up to Batman to step up for the deadbeat dad, so he goes full Iron Man. So anyway after bringin' the hurt and rescuing Aden, we get this scene: (Check the back pocket ) TwoPair fucked around with this message at 02:34 on Nov 18, 2014 |

How about this? It's the last scene of the last issue of the original run of Suicide Squad. A confrontation between Deadshot and Count Vertigo. Vertigo had earlier explained that a lot of his actions over the past several years had been driven by mental illness, which may have been the result of the experiments that gave him his powers but may also have been the result of aristocratic inbreeding... and that, on the whole, he's been feeling suicidal. He says to Deadshot, "if I ask you to... will you kill me?" And Deadshot says, "absolutely... so you'd drat well better be SURE before you ask me that." Later, after a mission, Vertigo takes Deadshot aside for an important conversation...

The Mega Man comic tends to play up how hard it is sometimes to be a sentient robot with feelings and a personality who is locked in their programming and has no free will whatsoever. Mega Man #43 goes into that a little.

That also fits in with how The Megas portrayed Needleman on History Repeating Red, as a robot who did not want to fight, but was programmed that way (and also corrupted by Airman's used parts).

Ever thought you'd be choked up by Thanos? From The Death of Captain Marvel (spoilers): Mar-Vell is dying of cancer and has sunk into his final coma. The spirit of his greatest enemy, Thanos, returns from the dead and takes Mar-Vell into a dreamworld. There he first starts a fight so that Mar-Vell can die on his feet in battle as he deserves. However, when the battle is over he reveals his true reasons for coming: he is there to help Mar-Vell accept death, and to travel with him into the next life.

Mega Man #43 goes into that a little. This scene is pretty jarring (in a good way), because a few pages before there's some funny scenes with needle man complaining about wiley's dumb plans, his stage and then getting pissed off when megaman confuses crocheting with knitting.

I realize he was a 'cosmic' character and those guys were poo poo on, but even as a kid (I was 8 when the issue came out) I thought that 'holy cow this fucker is capital D-E-A-D. No way they bring that back.' I also had a potty-mouth as a kid.

"Destroy Mega Man." What is Mega Man? It's a hardware module containing software that emulates an adolescent human child. If you're an inferior machine, design-wise - you know you can't beat him physically, he's made of better materials, literally sterner stuff than you, then you take it to the other level. Crippling Mega Man's software, making it unable to fight. That's got to count as 'destroying' Mega Man, right? It's a backup methodology for Directive B, and it's a logically valid one. Needle Man actually IS using all of the flexibility written into his core directives.
