Ugh, this guy's gonna be a problem.

There is no sinking ship. Fake news!

Can Trolley Man at least multi-track drift?

Still saves more lives than Homelander

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 18 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (1 children)

Isn't Homelander a villain though? I thought he was supposed to be a villain.

Edit: NM I didn't realize Homelander was from The Boys. I honestly thought he was the guy in Guardians of The Galaxy 3

Edit 2: Apparently that character's name is Adam Warlock.

SpoilerHomelander is the villain in the boys.

Anyone who drinks milk on-screen is always a villain.

Counterargument: Luke Skywalker.

[–] Pieisawesome@lemmy.world 1 points 21 minutes ago

At that point isn’t he? He created Kylo and then left everyone else to figure it out.

Not really a hero’s move

Hiding that piece of info behind a spoiler tag chef's kiss.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Ahh, kk. Never seen it, but I guess the two characters seem similar in that respect at least.

Issue #1 or 5? You decide!

This got a bonus chuckle from me.

I want more of this. Reminds me on the anime Darker than Black, where those with power always had to fulfill some contract to use their power, else they'd die.

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 hours ago

Man, this anime is so underrated. I like it a lot. I question the artistic direction on the second season, but at least the ending wrapped up the whole show nicely.

A little correction, nobody really know what happens when a contractor doesn't do that side-effect thingy. It is never mentioned if they would die, nor that it's even implied. The way I see it, they'd simply develop strong impulse to do so.

It's close to the second ghost rider (and maybe the first, been awhile since I dug up my old comics) who didn't have powers until innocent blood was spilled (though typically it was the villain who spilled it).

The Dave Chappelle bit about Bill Cosby being a superhero.... but he rapes.

And here was I thinking that this character was so terrible that it caused Stan Lee to spontaneously spring back into existence in order to make that opinion known.

How democrats unironically viewed the election.

Libs on this platform are obsessed with the trolley problem. They referred to it a lot to prove that genocide is ok and it being a deal breaker is stupid.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago

USA voters in the recent election never had a choice between genocide and not genocide, though, so your rambling seems pretty delusional.
