Re: Ronin Army Forums Shut Down For Good

I personally stay out of political threads on a game site. It never leads to anything good in my opinion.I'm too opinionated and my fingers don't always self-censor themselves. It's the main reason why I stay out of the political discussions on this site. :lol: While I want to encourage genuine dis...

I kinda like that costume. I think she needs to keep the sash. It's something pretty much unique to her that makes her stan...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Tigra! Mantis! Captain Mar-Vell! Carol Danvers!)

Yeah, that's a bewildering retcon. I think it was an attempt to integrate some of Movie Carol's background into the comics, with Marie taking the place of its female Mar-Vell, but ... that was clever* and I don't understand the mentality of someone who thinks this is an improvement. * And gave Caro...

Re: Emma's M&M2E Builds: SHAZAM!, KIMOTA!, Kamala Khan

Very nice Captain Marvel build. And I agree, DC's lawsuit was basically baseless, which was why DC had to keep getting it appealed to higher courts. Clearly Cap was inspired by Superman, but by the third story Cap had come into his own, going to Venus, fighting sentient frog troopers and giant alien...

Re: Film franchises that shouldn't have BEEN franchises

Highlander: the TV series, a good idea except for trying to justify both it and the movie co-existing. Roughly akin to saying there were two Hawkeye Pierces at M*A*S*H 4077, one that looked like Donald Sutherland and one who looked like Alan Alda. Highlander the film series... THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE...

Re: Film franchises that shouldn't have BEEN franchises

Terminator. It really should have ended at the first movie. I think T-1 worked as a standalone film, but T-2 made the story come full circle, ended on a positive note, and wrapped things up nicely. Some things just work better as two-parter like that. I honestly think they could tell Indiana Jones ...

Re: Ronin Army Forums Shut Down For Good

lol, well apparently even mentioning WHY BatgirlIII was banned was not cool, because RPG.net permabanned me for "Supporting GamerGate" by repeating what she said to get banned. I was just laughing about how and why she got in trouble, as she was ignorant of GamerGate itself! From what I g...

Well, all I can say is a heartfelt THANK YOU! and virtual hug to Ares for setting up this site for us. It proved to be a wise move with hindsight. ^_^ Though I haven't posted things in some time I still like reading my posts and others from way back. So many great posters and so much information pr...

Re: Solar's Build Thread - Boku no Hero Academia Update

Sero is basically what happens when someone gets Spider-Man's webbing as a power, but only the webbing. That said, me makes the most of it, and he has one of the cooler outfits IMO.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Wonder Man! Tigra! Swordsman! Mantis!)

Jeez, there's a scary though Englehart's Mantis Love vs Starlin's Thanos Love. One will take his pet character everywhere, the other will dedicate entire stories to retconning the defeats his character suffered while he wasn't looking.

Re: Mantis

-Englehart finally writes for Marvel again, and GUESS WHO shows up? Mantis features in Avengers: Celestial Quest , finally merging with the fragments of her personality- "freak, mother, prostitute (yes, really), mystic, and Avenger". She and the Avengers stop Thanos ('s clone, it turns ou...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Wonder Man! Grim Reaper! Tigra! Swordsman!)

It's kind of a shame about Swordsman, because that's such a good superhero codename, and I'm always a fan of weapon users like that. If anything, I'd love if guys like Swordsman or the Black Knight would go up against guys like the Silver Samurai and showcase that Western swordsman who attain enough...

Jab and I both use Smugmug.com, which I can't recommend enough.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Stalin! Avengers Builds! Wonder Man!)

I'd vote Image as well. Then Iron Man.

And yeah, the Avengers: EMH version of the Grim Reaper is probably the best the character's ever been, but despite a cool intro he never really amounted to much. Still better than the comics versions by a ways.

And having read some A+X and Uncanny Avengers, its amazing how quick these one true pairings.
