Re: Jab’s Builds! (SNK Gals Fighter! Bikini Karate Babes! Lethal Legion!)
Brighton in England had a rollercoaster on it's pier called 'Zyklon' (which means Cyclone in German) until people pointed out the whole Nazi gas thing, it was quickly renamed Turbo.

Re: She Hulk Attorney at law
Like most of these shows it was okay, not great but entertaining enough to keep me watching until the end. TBH the only show I've enjoyed enough to watch twice has been Hawkeye, though I am looking forward to season 2 of Loki. It's a bit weird to me that the most exciting moments in the show were no...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Luisa! Isabela! Bruno! Criticom!)
Sonork is Kronos read backwards, whether that was on purpose and means anything within the story I don't know. Also, the overly sexualised bikini warrior's power is literally blue balls? That just makes Sonork's name even more hillarious - the devs just used their own name backwards. Oh yeah, I mis...

Re: She Hulk Attorney at law
It was great to see that character back, it does make me wonder what the tone of his own Disney show will be, I'm hoping for a mix of this and the more gritty Netflix version. I couldn't help but notice just how much unnecessary damage Jen caused during their brief fight, weirdly I found myself thin...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (The Zoo! MyS-TECH! Alien vs. Predator!)
The few times I played this game in the arcade I remember choosing to play as the Hunter Predator, I can't remember why though.

Re: Jab's Animal Builds (The Kraken! Jellyfish! Insects! Giant Ant!)
I only recently watched a clip of bees killing a Japanese hornet that had entered their hive. The hornet is pretty much armoured compared to the bees so they cover the hornet and vibrate their wing muscles causing heat which roasts the hornet to death.

Yi Yang has since appeared in the Wolverine comic as part of the 'Unkillables' group so it's very possible Night Raven survived as well.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Charnel! Requiem Sharks! Motormouth!)
Motormouth now has two kids (who have psychic abilities of some sort) called Bert and Vicky (Albert and Victoria) who she apparently named after pubs

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Washington! Eliza! Thomas Jefferson! Aaron Burr, Sir!)
Unfortunately yeah, most Marvel UK characters aren't great (putting it politely) but I don't mind some of them, or at least they have the potential to be decent with a good writer/story (Dark Angel, Knights of Pendragon, Super Soldiers, Genetix etc.) Of course there are some lesser known British cha...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Sally Jupiter! Nite Owl! Rorschach!)
I never read the books and barely had any knowledge of the story before watching the movie. I liked the movie but I'm sure I read that it was generally disliked by the fans of the book. Reading these bios it seems the movie was quite faithful to the source material so what was it about the movie tha...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Whiplash! Masters of Silence! Ironheart- Riri Williams!)
Despite not liking teen sidekicks (which Marvel also used to be against) the idea of a teen with the smarts she has isn't a terrible idea in of itself, it's more how she acted towards others and how others acted towards her. I understand that someone may have a pre-emptive strike attitude but she tr...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Mandarin! Temugin! Spymaster! Whiplash!)
Yeah she's a terrible character, hopefully in any future appearances the more shitty aspects of her personality will have lessened but I wouldn't bet on it. She's actually going to appear in the MCU soon (both in the Black Panther sequel and her own Disney TV show) so we've all got that to look forw...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Madame Masque! Coldblood! Scarecrow! The Mandarin!)
I liked Iron Man 2. While I found the Shang-Chi film to be pretty mediocre I thought Trevor Slattery (the Mandarin actor from IM3) was one of the better parts of the movie.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (The Ghost! Count Nefaria! Madame Masque!)
I feel the same about retcons TBH especially when they make established characters look like assholes and/or changed long established lore (though as stated above on rare occasions it can work as in the case of Iron Fist) And yeah while it can work (such as with Blade) changing established character...
