    as a big fan of a niche character: I feel you Devil Ray, I feel you
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    "I don't hate you for siding with my greatest enemy Jackson. I was just a little miffed about it."

    I feel bad for that kid but he is wearing a costume of a known pirate and murderer...

    That is a pretty evocative few pages. It speaks on the sense of perspectives that different people, even young kids, live their lives through. That social roleplay, too, and the implications therein. It's brilliant!

    The point being conveyed here is that the kid sees Manta as being a good guy, because only a good guy would save him from pirates.

    Setting up a pretty big "Don't meet your heroes" moment.
