Re: Black Panther Movie
But I also believe that the gender, race or orientation of the character does not warrant any special treatment one way or another when it comes to enjoying, analyzing or supporting the work. And I disagree. I consider representation a quality added to a work. It will not redeem something that is o...

Re: Black Panther Movie
Wow, this was a great movie! I have my quibbles and nitpicks (an Egyptian panther goddess more or less makes sense as a patron in an African nation. Hanuman considerably less so, for instance) but I can't say there was really anything I'd call a straight up flaw, really. They even managed to make th...

Re: Kursk
Oh, yeah, Brit is pretty much the most boring character to ever bore me in Invincible :| And about Kursk... -Kursk is another one-note villain, an enemy of the Flash-Expy Red Rush, who got hired on to beat up Invincible one time. It didn't work. He's popped up in many background scenes, usually for ...

Re: Jab's Builds! (Elle Driver! Bill! Pai Mei! The Black Panther! Killmonger!)
Over the years I have softened my position about Wakanda as a "Mary Sue nation". At the time it as created (and even now still) black people had a dearth of power fantasies aimed at them. It still doesn't make sense that it is how it is, but that is true of many such power fantasies, and m...

Re: Jab's Builds! (Dino-Riders- Diplodocus! T-Rex! Brontosaurus! Kill Bill!)
Yeah, a "Reach" weapon is a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE advantage in a real-life fight, effectively keeping you permanently out of range. It's why guys with longer arms are deadly in boxing, too. Hard to replicate in M&M without just doing what I did with Sagat- because he's so tall and powe...

No bestiary can be truly called complete without Terror Birds and Hell Pigs in it.

Re: Jab's Builds! (Pharah! Genji! Reinhardt! Doomfist! Dinosaurs!)
Is this set also going to include ancient megafauna in general, or only dinos and similar?

Re: Jab's Builds! (Pharah! Hanzo! Genji! Ana! Reinhardt! Doomfist!)
If the Doctor points and laughs at archaeologists, because he's a time-traveler, I wonder what he does to paleontologists. Gently pats them on the head and tells them like little children playing with clay how neat their bones look even if they belong to 5 different species. Not a good idea. Last t...

Re: Jab's Builds! (Bastion! Soldier: 76! Tracer! Orisa! Lucio! ZARYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!)
Funny how a lot of the pictures just portray Symmetra with standard comic-book hottie looks, making her look like a white model painted darker, while in game her ethnicity is pretty marked.

Re: Jab's Builds! (Oberon! Taserface! Widowmaker! Bastion! Soldier: 76!)
As far as artwork and memes go, at least for a while there was a quite a bit of stuff portraying Soldier 76 in the "dad" role, often with Mercy as "mom" and younger team members, most often the dorito-gremlin version of D.Va but sometimes also others, get the "kid" role...

Re: Warehouse W: 2018 Re-opening - Overwatch: Soldier 76, Ana Amari
I think that the design team really nailed Ana's look: you can clearly see that she was a beauty when she was younger and she still looks extremely dignified (or as Reinhardt says "as lovey as ever"). While the game is of a genre I really don't enjoy, the character designs are truly top n...

Re: Jet Stingray & Magma Dragoon
Wow, I had no idea! The idea of doing a Boss Fight wearing RIDE ARMOR is awesome! Those were always my favorite bits about the Mega Man X games- just tanking around in this super-suit that punched the crap out of guys, and WALKED ON SPIKES. Yeah, it is pretty metal. The hidden path to the boss figh...

Re: Jet Stingray & Magma Dragoon
The trick with him is to get behind him when he's about to toss out that huge Area Attack of his, and blast/slash away. Another trick against Magma Dragoon is that it is possible to arrive at the fight with a Ride Armor! That extra tool you can use to fight him, his shotoclone fighting style (when ...
