That's true, the animated version sacrifices a lot of detail that Murata renders.

Also,



if you need context to understand this or appreciate it, I pity you

I was thinking about it, Saitama has some spider-man bits on him. Never recognized from his acts, always broke and relying on sales to buy groceries, no one knows who he is because, despite fighting innumerable monsters over the years, he forgot to register at the Hero Association when he began, is in the lowest hero class despite all that, eventually is treated as a cheater and getting even less respect from his victories, is actually holding down his punches despite everything shown

Not much wisecracking, but there are definitely some details there.

Jason Aaron's continued efforts to get Thor in the most ridiculous fights possible goes on in Thor #6: Old King Thor and a Phoenix-powered Wolverine are fighting to save the world from Doctor Doom, who has over the years stolen/captured a bunch of powers like the Iron Fist, a Spirit of Vengeance, the Star Brand, and the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme. Doom just hit Thor with a Penance Stare which did a real number on him.

The OPM talk is good enough reason for me to repost my favorite badass moment.

Saitama is brought in for questioning because there's a bald guy going around brutally beating cops to death. The police chief doesn't think too highly of Saitama, especially after finding out he's part of the Hero Association because in his eyes, the Hero Association is made up of egomaniacs who are only in it for the glory. The police may not be as effective against bigger threats, but they do their job and don't make such a big deal of it.

The actual killer (a criminal who transformed into a monster) shows up at the police precinct and bullets have no effect on him. The police chief calls the head of the Hero Association for help, but that guy is a huge dick about it and relishes that the police need the Hero Association's aid.













In the next couple pages, we see that the head of the Hero Association sent a bunch of A-rank heroes and also made sure to alert the media. He wants everyone to see them save the police.

The only bad thing about the anime is that we'll never see the side stories, which are often as good or better than the a plots

Vote shit sandwich or the shit sandwich gets it!
The Phantom daily comic book strip, and this requires a bit of backstory.

Heloise is the daughter of the current Phantom. She and her brother have trained since birth to be able to succeed their father in the family business (crime-busting). Her brother is now off in who-knows-where to train further, while she went off to the US for school.

The Nomad is a notorious international terrorist; no one knows who he really is, but the Phantom recently found out the Nomad's identity: Eric Sahara. Coincidentally, Kadia Sahara (the Nomad's daughter) is Heloise's roommate at her boarding school.

The Nomad comes to visit his daughter at school, and takes Kadia and Heloise out to dinner. While they're eating the Phantom phones his daughter, and reveals to her that Eric Sahara is the Nomad. Heloise briefly considers telling her dad that she's currently having dinner with the Nomad, but decides against it since the Phantom got badly hurt recently in a trap the Nomad had set for him. Heloise decides to take matters into her own hands.

Coincidentally, since Heloise's family is close friends with another of the Nomad's enemies (President Luanda of the Republic of Bangalla), the Nomad comes to the conclusion that Heloise is a spy, sent to keep tabs on Kadia Sahara, and so decides to kill her.

Stuff happens, the Nomad knocks out Heloise, and loads her into his private jet, intending to dump her into the Atlantic mid-flight. Then, as the plane is lining up for takeoff, Heloise wakes up. And the Nomad finds out just how badly he hosed up.

As a bit of pop culture trivia. Leopardon heralded the era of Super Sentai shows having giant robots to control for the main heroes to pilot.
