"I'm not in danger, because if I was Superman would be here" is a hell of a sentiment from Bruce. Lovely stuff.

Costume would be somewhere between the t-shirt, street clothes look and his original. Leather jacket with an S or we riot.
Conner should be a super popular hero - charismatic, cool, bit of a...
I think there's a difference though between not liking a character and not having your take on them as a writer. I always felt that Gunn's thing was that he wouldn't take on the job if he didn't have...
I live in Glasgow so...yes :D we can't move for memes about it.
DC One Million had some great ones. There's Flash beating himself in a race, as noted above, and Kyle Rayner holding down a supernova. Even Superman 1M was impressed at the willpower.
All Star...
I wonder if Rumbles would even exist without Toriyama. The man's influence simply cannot be overstated. Every account you hear of him from peers paints the picture of a kind, generous and supportive...
Didn't Optimus Prime have a sword in a few of the movies?
**ignore me, it's been said already
In one area. It doesn't make her inferior to Superman in general, which is an implication I took issue with.
Again, not arguing consistency or power scaling, but just the intention of the panel, which I think is very clear in context. I think King writes the power stuff poorly (Harley being able to steal...
Whether you agree with the power scaling, the intention of the panel is clear - it's not saying Wonder Woman is weaker than Clark across the board, just that she can't outrace bullets in this...
You need to apply some reading comprehension here. She specifically mentions Clark's power with reference to bullets, as in, faster than a speeding bullet. That's all. He's not saying Wonder Woman is...
Yeah, I think Duncan tends to go for an incapacitating move first before a full head chop. Angel can tank these well enough to leverage his superior strength to knock him out. Angel's just too...
edit: never mind
I don't know if Gunn was joking there, but Mr Smith Goes to Washington is one of my all-time favourites, so if that factors in I am /very/ happy.
Clark fighting against embedded corruption at all...
Earth Green - The Guardians of the Universe went Full Fascist about 100 or so years ago and the universe is in the grip of their Green Lantern Corps. Perfect order across the stars, no emotion. Earth...
Not a God, but a Titan, Prometheus. Someone who defied the gods to aid humanity, and who in some versions of the myth molded humanity from clay. Prometheus is also something of a trickster deity, so...
I do like the idea of the Condiment King basically being a poisoner, using super concentrated ingredients found in condiments to carry out his killings. Mustard? Mustard gas. Soy sauce you've...
Wonder how many other 90s guys who got more than their talent deserved will pipe up...
Mark Millar has made a...I wouldn't call it a heel turn, as I've always thought he's a piece of ****, but a more blatant turn to the comicsgate side of things.
Railing against "cancel pigs", who...
Millar has been trading in alt-right adjacent stuff for a while, like his friendship with anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist David Icke and spreading "soros controls the world" stuff on Twitter.
He...
You might be thinking of the French term L'esprit de l'escalier, or spirit of the staircase - when you think of the perfect response when you've already left.
Steppenwolf can at the very least catch arrows fired by Amazons, something he did at least twice, so his combat reflexes are above Thor and Thanos, who I don't recall having any particularly good...
Its been a while since I've seen Heroes, but I dont know if Peter ever had super speed and time stopping at the same time. I think the speedsters arrived in Heroes after he could only do one power at...
A few head canons...
Every few years, Diana has her powers temporarily removed so she can train with some of the best vanilla mortal martial artists on earth. Powerless she'd be in the top 3...
I dunno, I think in America especially there's a strong "support our troops/veterans", pro-military culture. Lex having Teschmacher boost the profile of the Authority while painting Superman as a...
