Someone once described Star Trek as "serious sci fi" to me.

That person has literally no idea what they are talking about.

At least the half that's not cop show would be lingerie show.

It was totally a thing - Defenders of the Earth also did it.

Yeah, Marvel Heroes was like dogshit bad when it came out, but extensive patching saw it improve to be playable and even fun. But they were still rated at Metacritic of "dogshit bad" due to that initial launch.

They changed the name again this year, and they'll do it again next year.

Wolverine's got retarded aging and can barely get hangovers, and most importantly his injuries heal. All of them. Nothing is more horrible than still feeling pain from a 10 year old injury, and Wolverine never has to deal with that. That's the real superpower.

I mean, his entire character is a surly dick because he hasn't dealt with any emotional pain in the hundred plus years he's been loving up his own life, but yeah - no bung knee.

e: Time and Mind. Space seems like a complete waste because what's the difference between instant travel and being able to stop time and aging? Other than I can't teleport to space environments that will kill me.

I pretty much imagine everyone who lives centuries rather than decades actually will inevitably build up that much emotional baggage.

I would just use it to gift other people powers so they can be superheroes and supervillains of their own choice for real then sit on the moon watching it all play out for my own amusement while I teleport doritos and mountain dew directly into my toilet and deflect any criticism of my power use by insisting I can't intervene in events.

Its suppose to be gross and messed up. That is the whole point of it and how immortality is not a good thing.

It sounds more like having a miscarriage every morning is not a good thing, and wouldn't be fun even if you only did it for 40 years then died.

The title says "ranking all the characters" and yet notably absent are the new ones from the Street Fighter released just in time for the article. :colbert:

EX characters are non-canon and also not owned by Capcom.

(Side note: At the same time Iceman and Aquaman combine, so do Flash and Cannonball. I will accept no name for this Amalgam character but Cannonball Run.)

Speedball.

I met my first roommate on a BBS.

It was as awesome and as terrible as you're imagining.

What the gently caress happened to gen Y? That what everyone called my generation when I was younger.

The 'Y' was a placeholder until the 'characteristics' of the generation became known.

K so how do you explain Gen X still being gen X?

This is real stupid and makes zero sense.

It's the Bizzaro Comics strip where Alan Scott makes a boxing glove to defeat a bank robber and then the boxing glove has an existential crisis.

I'm a big fan of the reader's club for finding new stuff. I don't listen to the associated podcast, but I generally check to see what it's recommending.
