The gently caress Blade was always british. Guy showed up talking like Shaft in Tomb of Dracula.

If it turns out the book is about literally everyone on the planet wanting to gently caress this character and her having to deal with this problem, like an experimental horror film, then I guess it's a good cover.

Considering their history I'm surprised "Never team up with the Punisher,

or Deadpool" didn't make the list.



Then again, I don't think I've ever read anything with both Moon Knight and Spider Man

Moon Knight is just non-murderous enough most of the time that you might need advice. Punisher's a wanted mass murderer and Deadpool is also a wanted mass murderer, as well as a known supervillain and mercenary.

The best version of it was Cable in Cable/Deadpool. Cable's tech virus arm thing holds back his psychic powers. By removing the virus, Cable becomes godly powerful, though he knows it'll eventually kill him, so he becomes a benevolent dictator of the world in hopes that he'll be put down and seen as a martyr. That was cool.

That was cool, but I think it's slightly different than like, a cyber belt you take off when you need to get SERIOUS but after 90 seconds your plotium core overheats.

Darkseid is the kind of dude that the mere existence of makes it hard for me to believe the DC universe can exist in a recognizable shape compared to our own. There's a guy out there who's basically the Space Devil, is theoretically powerful enough to mop the floor with every hero on earth, and he's pretty publicly known. You'd think that'd impact society a little.

I mean you can make the same argument for a character like Galactus, but his stories actually do have people flipping their poo poo and re-evaluating their worldview when confronted with his existence.

In any other book, the Kingpin thinking he could become President simply by kidnapping the real one would mean he was having a stroke.

The sad thing is, Chameleon tried to pull something very similar to that in Obama meets Spider-man. And that was a regular story, not some all-ages or early reader stuff.

Male circumcision has no real upside so it's kind of a stupid thing to do except in rare cases where infections necessitate it. It is not comparable to "female circumcision", which is a misnomer because men don't get their glans cut off.
