Right, but Hal probably wears a sweater and slacks and some white New Balance sneakers under his projection. Jon's probably got a camo t-shirt and cargo shorts. Kyle obviously wearing an anime tee and jorts. But, Guy. Guy always goes commando.

Hey, Kyle likes to class it up with a button down anime shirt

What's the advantage of making a green robot to shoot a green beam at the enemy, as opposed to shooting the green beam yourself? :spergin:

You're the reason animated GL just shoots green beams or occasionally makes a box instead of doing something cool.

I heard this was explained in an issue (but that might have been fanwank.)

But it was because Kyle's ring had a tank of energy instead of a 24 hour unlimited level of power.
So if he blasted someone that used X energy.
But if he made a construct that had a cannon, that cost X energy and every time it blasted it didn't cost him as much energy. So it was efficient and cool looking.

Spokesman: We thought that when Bill asked for the armour to be outfitted with tranquilizer darts and knock out gas, he was just trying to be less lethal.

Oh god. I remember that crossover event. The thing that stuck out was they were soooo careful that it was Even Steven: Marvel wins one, then DC wins one, then Marvel wins...

Although I will admit Hulk v. Superman in the desert and Batman v. Cap in the sewers was cool. But too short.

I know a GL's ring works on "willpower" but to me it seems easier to think of it as belief. It's like tricking someone with "what weighs more, a ton of bricks or a ton of feathers?" Even if you intellectually know the weight is the same a GL might have an easier time putting their willpower into making the ton of bricks be more effective because they believe in it more. If Kyle is an anime fan and has seen all the times a giant mecha has fired off crazy destructive beam attacks then he can put more belief into his attack whereas Hal would be better make an F-14 fire off missiles because he intuitively knows the payload and effect of the real thing.

Not gonna lie, the second thing I would do as a Green Lantern would be to make a construct Bruce Lee.

The first thing I would do as a Green Lantern would be die because I am a frail weakling.

Which is why I would make a Bruce Lee. Because my imagination knows Bruce Lee could beat up Doomsday. Therefore, Ring Bullshit makes it better than "Giant glowing fist, I guess?" and also it's Bruce Lee :neckbeard:

I really loved the later JLA/Avengers storyline, especially the Cap/Bats fight which is the two squaring up to fight, sizing each other up and then Batman saying,"Okay you'd probably win .... eventually...." and that was the end of the fight.

If I remember right, it was that when Thing popped in to give them something or other he made some comments on the cave and stuff in his typical Yancy Street style, was really casual, and left. Batman made an observation like "a little rough around the edges..." and Cap was like "That is one of the finest men I know, don't you dare say even a word against him."

Except for the first two panels here, which are very emotional and intense, every panel featuring J. Jonah Jameson holding a coffee cup in Silk #1-7 has the coffee sloshing out. Excellent bit of characterization, I felt.

Edit: drat, they're invisible right now, but hopefully they'll come back soon?

Edit 2: Maybe this will work?

Something witty yet inspirational about the Cleveland Indians

This is even more hilarious when it turns out Falcon is picked solely to fulfill a minority requirement. This leads to two fantastic moments:

1). The Beast reacting to Gyrich claiming they don't employee any minorities by pointing out he and Wanda are mutants, Vision is a synthezoid, and the Black Panther IS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF HIM

2). Falcon reacting to the decree by putting on a Steppin Fetchit accent on the next 4 issues and mocking the whole situation to the point where Captain America has to tell him to stop it.
