thetoughestbean posted:Aren’t there multiple Clayfaces? This coupd be any one of them Yes, this one is shown to be Preston Payne. Nightwing figured it out by analyzing a piece of him back at the Batcave and I guess all the Clayfaces have different chemical compositions. Basil Karlo is the one that turned good.

Is that kinda title a trend in manga at the moment? Dorohedoro Dandadan Doron Dororon Feels like Keroro Gunsou running out of character names.

It's better than the trend where things just have extremely plain descriptive names.

Dorohedoro turned 21 years old this year so I guess it depends on your definition of a trend. If you want to go all the back to the 1960's you could bring in Dororo too.

Tell me you wouldn't be more likely to pick up a comic if it was called "This guy's power is that he's just really loving good at wrestling and he suplexes aliens to death" instead of "Muscle Man issue #001" or whatever.

Light novels getting super long titles is a rather recent phenomenon, it started in the last decade. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pi79l5k8gBM

Also, apologies for the double post. Trying Out Marriage With My Female Friend Ruriko and Kurumi are friends. After they have their coming of age ceremony (which in Japan is at 20 years old) another friend tells them that she's getting married (and also she's pregnant). Kurumi bemoans the fact that she has no one in her life, but she says that's because she likes to do lots of stuff (watch movies, go to concerts, read books, read comics, go to the museum, etc.) so she has no time to think about love, and besides no one likes someone who only thinks about herself. Ruriko has objections. (Read right to left.)

I think Super Stories would win because he's a guy who enthusiastically describes what he's doing while Newspaper is mostly describing what's happening to him. "I'm throwing a brick and throwing it hard at Newspaper Spider-Man's head!" "Look out! Spidey Super Stories Spider-Man is throwing a brick at my head! What can I do?!"

Newspaper Spider-Man takes place in a setting where trivial and absurd difficulties, like boarding an airplane, are dragged out across several months, Spidey Super Stories takes place in a setting where a lady dressed like Napoleon is socking you with a boxing glove within the first three panels. I dunno how they'd even encounter each other when they're on such radically different wavelengths.
