Re: Has anyone read Legendlore?

Onyx path just started a new LegendLore Kickstarter. Is anyone familiar with the comic that it is based on? Kinda sounds like a Woke version of the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon from the 80s. Can't say I'm familiar with the system. But it's funny you should mention the D&D cartoon, just the othe...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Hulkling! Iron Lad! Patriot II! Kate Bishop!)

She's from the US. There are characters who most people don't realise are British though (Spider-Woman (Drew) and Blade) Oh you mean like how everyone forgets that Jessica Drew is actually blonde. I just checked her bio on MarvelDatabase, it says she's brunette but dyes her hair black (and previous...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Quicksilver! Salem's Seven! Wiccan!)

Kang is also Rama-Tut (an early Spider-Man villain), the Scarlet Centurion (never really explained, apparently either a "branching timeline" version created by a paradox AND/OR an interim identity between Kang and Immortus) At least when The Scarlet Centurion isn't his son, who actually t...

Re: What's new with the big two: Marvel and DC Comics discussion thread.

So Diamond just shut down due to the Wuhan Flu, which means comic shops will have zero new product on the shelf. This could very well end the western comic book industry.

Well will you look at that. Another case of Marvels boomers missing the point with an application of "well met fellow teen"

OH GOD WHY?! Oh it's so much worse then you think. :lol: Everything one could do wrong in an issue 1 they do wrong. It's amazing in how bad it is, the badness is so offensively bad that the badness of it is a work of art in its own right. We are talking about a property that not only fails across t...

Re: What's new with the big two: Marvel and DC Comics discussion thread.

It is used very frequently as a specific insult against nonbinary people, which the character is apparently supposed to be, because of the common perception that nonbinary people are just trying to be unique for attention. They are not; they simply have a different experience of their gender. It's ...

Re: What's new with the big two: Marvel and DC Comics discussion thread.

That's easily one of the worst things I've ever seen. It's just outright horrifically transphobic and insensitive. How exactly is it transphobic? don't get me wrong, this is the most "well met fellow teens" boomer misfire ever, but how is it transphobic exactly? Snowflake is an insult. An...

Re: Yellowjacket (Hank Pym)

Yellowjacket is the version of Pym that sucks least. I have always liked that costume, even if the entity contained therein is an abomination of a travesty of a....a...PYM!!! :evil: I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. There is.... another. Hank Pym sucks, he's insecure, his powers are visua...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Way of the Warrior! Felicia! Michael Jordan! Shaq-Fu!)

If you are looking for suggestions on comic book characters to stat, I've got a few suggestions of characters you've missed. - Dynamo 5 - Noble Causes - Shadowhawk - Powers (lots of dead heroes in that one just waiting to be statted out) - The JLA, Destiny version of the JLA - Backlash/Wildcore - Th...
