Guy Goodbody posted:I seriously hate The Great Ten so much. DC is making a new all-Chinese superhero team! Great! But they can't just be regular superheroes, oh no. After all, China is bad and foreign, those are it's two defining characteristics, so Chinese superheroes have to be hosed up and weird. China is one of the bad guy countries, so their main villain is going to be the Chinese government itself! But China is also like a totalitarian state, so there wouldn't be superheroes without the Chinese government's say-so, so they'll also be like slaves of the government. But we want the superheroes to be good guys, so some of them don't like their position as slaves to an evil organization. There you go, that wraps it up nicely Also, one of their heroes is a woman who's super powers is literally that she gives birth to children.

Lurdiak posted:I don't remember that one. A sect builds an empathy machine that makes everyone feel what the person near them is feeling. This is predictable pretty disastrous of you're standing next to John Constantine.
