Re: Is Superman Still Relevant Today: Analysis Video by Literature Devil

I wonder how much the "huge" demand was in terms of number of people, or just the same small number of people making the same requests over and over again. I mean, I suppose the idea is that the Snyder Cut has to be better than the version we got, but it's like saying getting in the face w...

Is Superman Still Relevant Today: Analysis Video by Literature Devil

So I came across this video by Literature Devil: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6YsDwg0HiY It's pretty long, roughly 90 minutes, but it makes good listening if can find the time for it. In essence, Literature Devil takes several quotes from different people and uses them to tackle the idea of hero...

Re: The Flame Hero's "Quirk"

First off, let me recommend Solar Oracle's Build Thread , which is an incredible collection of MHA builds that's ever growing. There's also a lot more skilled builders on here than myself, but Hellfire isn't actually all that different from other fire related superheroes. It's primarily a Ranged Dam...

Re: Jab's RoninArmy Build Dump

Did the JLU and other Batman DCAU characters make it over to this board? I'm specifically looking for some Beyond write-ups in 3E. Initial searching hasn't been helpful. Here's a link to Jab's other thread where he did builds of the DCAU, starting with Batman: The Animated Series . Just go from the...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Witchblade! The Darkness! Magdalena! Fathom!)

I'm a big fan of Christian (and especially Catholic) material in my fantasy material. I won't enter a discussion on the merits of the Catholic Church, except to say that working for the Church is my day job and I love my job. 'Nuff said. See, now I've got this mental image of you running Fight! 2nd...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Witchblade! The Darkness! Aphrodite IX! Magdalena!)

The Catholic church using the Spear of Destiny (i.e. the spear used to pierce the side of Christ as he was being crucified) seems more than a little messed up. In the real world? Sure. In a fantasy world where she uses it to fight demons? I've seen far worse mutilations of Catholic devotional pract...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Danger Girl! Crimson! Witchblade! The Darkness!)

Yeah, you wouldn't like it. There's some very uplifting and hopeful moments, but they're overall weighed down by some very grim ones, and Ellis indulges in his torture fetish just a bit too much. It was a mixed bag for me as well; overall it was intriguing enough to read to the end, despite the del...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Gen-13! Danger Girl! Crimson! Witchblade!)

Šejić is a curious one. He's obviously a Fetish artist with a capital "F", and clearly has a lesbian fetish as well. but I think it seems less seedy because he's actually married to a woman so there's some kind of "Well he's not just some loner creeper" aspect to it, as well. Pl...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Gen-13! Danger Girl! Crimson! Witchblade!)

Oh hey Crimson. I loved that series. there's a bunch of nuanced things in it. Like Ekimus not being an actual vampire but the father of all vampires (along with Lillith). He's actually from another humanoid race created by God before humans. St George being reincarnated to deal with the dragons (ye...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Freefall! Rainmaker! DV8! Danger Girl!)

Oddly enough, the thing I like most about Crimson was the idea that "Little Red Riding Hood" is based off of an event that created an entire organization of red hood wearing monster hunters. The barely boob-covering bondage gear was a bit much, but the red hood monster hunters is an idea w...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Freefall! Rainmaker! DV8! Danger Girl!)

But yeah, Danger Girl was clearly a lot of lighthearted fun, some action and cheesecake without being offensive about it. It was basically if the Sean Connery James Bond was the 'Charlie' of Charlie's Angels, and they'd regularly team up with an Americanized version of the Pierce Brosnan James Bond....
