DO YOU HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUND OF ME PATTING MYSELF ON THE BACK.


The Stuyvesant University shirt is like the perfect fan shirt. At first glance it looks like a legit school t-shirt, just for a school that you may not have heard of. If you look close though, you notice the missing leg and if you are really ambitious you can translate the text and realize its some sort of spoof.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

I wear the OSI shirt constantly. Even cut the sleeves off so its easier to work out in. Its just too perfect.

I'll have to retire the Spanakopita one soon because its almost worn out.

Edit: I forgot about the Shallow Gravy shirt. That's another I wear all the time.

I wear the grey OSI one all the time too. I like the white OSI one in the spirit of the GI Joe logo, but I don’t wear that one as often. I also wear the black guild of calamitous intent shirt all the time. I think those are my favorites. I already wore out the spanakopita one

Someone saw that shirt and immediately started asking which part of the area I was from and he absolutely judged me when I told him the shirt was from a cartoon.

This is the only shirt I've seen on someone else in the wild. I've gotten a couple of comments on mine but I've only seen that one particular guy in a Target.

There was a guy that lived in my neighborhood who I'd bump into every now and then at CVS or whatever and we'd inevitably be wearing the same Venture Bros shirt. It was always a nice lil part of my day.

Have a SPANAKOPITA! shirt and wear it around pretty freely. People have only recognized it a couple of times, but it fills me with joy and strength all the same.

I was wearing that in public once at a diner and when I paid the bill the guy who rung me up asked about it. I explained that it's from a TV show and he muttered something about "there's a lot of that kind of stuff on TV nowadays". If I discovered that guy was super into qanon now I wouldn't be surprised.

I still have my GCI logo shirt which I love very dearly because I wore it to a goth club years ago and got it pretty much ruined with glitter and such, but I found it a few months ago and was able to clean it and I lost enough weight to fit into it, so I'm gonna keep it around as long as I can. I also still have the RIP 24 memorial shirt which I have yet to wear. I wish I wasn't so poor when the shirt clubs happened, I would gladly spend all of that money 5x over now for them.

Been doing another rewatch and I'm on the first Blue Morpho episode. They mention that 21 uses skills he learned from his high school home economics class to make the Morpho and Kano suits fit, but didn't he get abducted in middle school and then get his GED later?

There's a two continuity errors I can think of.

1) When Dean meets Triana in S01E05, he refers to the plot of Ghosts of the Sargasso, but that's the next episode (S01E06)!

2) In "Any Which Way Buy Zeus" Red Mantle / Dragoon mention they used to Arch the old Captain Sunshine. However in Season 7, they are told all their archs have died and they have no one left to settle a score with. Unless Captain Sunshine died in the meantime and it wasn't mentioned :shrug:

1) always figured they've had more than one encounter with Ghost Pirates

2) possible that the Guild only checked into living arches that weren't retired like Captain Sunshine 1 was

Garry doesn't say that, the announcer does. Which means it is for a cartoon that took liberties that include white washing him so he never was a super villain henchman.

No one knew the old Captain Sunshine was the butler until Red Dragoon points it out in "Zeus", so it's possible that the Guild (and the world at large) has assumed him dead since his retirement.

Exploration is ill-advised.
Entirely possible that the original Captain Sunshine had died between episodes, also possibly that the Guild hadn't bothered updating his status and assumed him dead, or otherwise no longer a qualified arch. The Guild does seem to respect retirement, though they're otherwise pretty arbitrary about who does and doesn't qualify as a valid arch.

I imagine it comes down to how much they think it might piss off OSI in a way that might lead to retaliation

Also now I'm remembering how loving depressing it was seeing Action Johnny in that episode

And that his arch is probably the healthiest remaining relationship he has is especially so. Although at least it has Johnny in much needed rehab.

Of course, the funny thing is that level 1 arching probably covers what amounts to a casual visit with some horseplay.

I almost want to see a full level 10 St Cloud with Lakitu cloud and lighting rod or something, rifle just doesn't fit him. I could see him playing a wizard though.

A time skip actually could be really fun.

I'm only willing to see a level 10 st. cloud if it's a dream or something. Also, it seems weird that the Monarch had to babysit st. cloud through a level 1 arching when St. Cloud had previously done an arch before to steal the please please me ball.

That was inspired by sheer passionate hatred for Billy. Like the Monarch, specifically nemesis-targeted villainy comes naturally to St. Cloud. And also like the Monarch, he has to put in much more effort to pull it off when he's trying to play by the Guild's rules.

He didn't have to. It was a part of the big villain program. It was entirely designed to make his arching better.
