If you hadn't told me the name of that comic I would've assumed it was some kind of glorious tribute to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

I'm failing to see how its her fault, considering the goo-skeleton things came looking for her and not her going out picking the fight.

Or is this another one of those settings where people go "gently caress you <hero> for fighting" and if they don't, they get "gently caress you <hero> for not doing anything" and there's no winning?

Do the writers actually call that move a "sonic scream" because that's pretty ridiculous.

Wasn't that the 'Armor War' arc where Tony basically went around beating up anyone he so much as thought had power armor based on his design?

In the Tower of Babel storyline the justice league gets taken out by normal goons because they compromised the batcave and stole batman's backup plans on how to take out mind controlled/rogue justice league members. He gets kicked out of the clubhouse for a while because of that.

Which I always found a little funny because he's the one who paid to build said 'clubhouse' in the firstplace :laugh:

Didn't one take on the "plans to be everyone" angle end with him confronted with this question, and he says something like, "I do. It's called the Justice League"?

That was one of the animated movies, I believe. Can't remember the name of it off the top of my head, but I distinctly remember that scene at the end of it.

The last few posts remind me, have there been any evil characters in comics that turned good/started over/basically stopped being jerks and... stayed that way? Without being dragged back into it or rendered non-canon by petulant writers?
I just have a thing about dudes realizing "this being evil thing isn't working" and trying to unfuck their situation, like Megatron. Though I'm sure that one isn't going to stick either.

People complain about Batman having a billion contingency plans but nothing about Punisher apparently having a black-belt in every martial art ever?

E for clarification, the panels are still badass, but I can't help but notice every time someone claims they practice <martial arts here>, there's a little blurb of "That's cute, I studied that too".

Then again, Yoda had to put some effort into it, while in Force Unleashed the player character uses them as projectiles. Then he pulls a Star Destroyer out of he sky.

Force Unleashed pseudo explains that as Starkiller being phenomenally naturally talented with the Force, though.
They get around this little continuity problem by killing him in the good/canon ending :v:

Cheese monks! They've already gotten through the prequels and are doing the original trilogy now. The 'jedi cheese' thing is on the third comic.

I don't know the issue, just been told it's from the Thor solo series post-Civl War. Thor is pissed that Tony cloned him. Also, Tony threatened to invade Asgard.





I'd love to post the whole thing :allears: and while some would say a one-sided beatdown isn't badass, I just love seeing Civil War Tony get his just deserts for some of the assholery he pulled.
