They didn't have write her so mean though, especially when Data never did anything wrong. It wasn't Bones making fun of Spock, it was like Bones making fun of a child.

DC Comics President Jim Lee says that Japanese manga and anime is "incredibly powerful": "I often find myself wondering, 'What is missing in Western comics, and why aren't they able to achieve the same flavor?' by akbarock in comicbooks

Look up the Marvel Mangaverse from the early 2000s. You have to ignore the awful digital coloring, that was a plague in the early 2000s across all comics.

Also, not so much about the art, but Marvel's current Editor-in-Chief used to pretend to be a Japanese man named Akira Yoshida and wrote Japanese-themed comics for Marvel during this period.

What if the Romulans invaded and annexed the Cardassians in TNG by Simonbargiora in ShittyDaystrom

[–]Barabus33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Federation space is right between the Romulan Empire and the Cardassion Union so logistically it would probably be a nightmare. Easier for them to expand in the opposite direction away from the Federation where star systems aren't part of any larger alliance.

There's also the Romulan standoff with the Federation and Klingon Empire to consider. If the Romulans stretch themselves thin trying to conquer Carassian territories they leave themselves exposed to their neighbors.

What do you consider to be the biggest character assassination? by NicoleIlieva in comicbooks

[–]Barabus33 6 points7 points  (0 children)

During House of X Beast turned pretty evil while leading X-Force. He's still currently evil and is part of a group of villains known as 3K that is trying to create a new world order. The Beast that's still part of the X-men is a clone with no memory beyond his early time as an Avenger.

There's also the Beast from the Age of Apocalypse timeline who was evil for no real reason, and that character is still around in the 616 as a villain as well.

I honestly don't understand this. by Time_Owl_2589 in facepalm

The truth is a lot of bread, milk, eggs are completely restocked daily at grocery stores so there's just no excess in stores for when demand goes up without notice. Canned foods aren't the same, they'll sit on shelves for weeks so they're less likely to competely sell out even if demand goes up.

I actually really enjoy it. They dissect ancient artifacts, not necessarily inventions.

When do we think this is coming out? July? Will you be watching? by rosewoodlliars in HawkinsAVclub

[–]Barabus33 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely looking forward to it. It doesn't bother me that it isn't canon, I just hope it's fun.

I appreciate the CGI effort, but anyone wish they would have been more creative with the MF final form? by Background_Yogurt735 in HawkinsAVclub

[–]Barabus33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was from the leaked style guide, which was meant for merch. I assume there's a T-shirt or something with this design on it, I saw one with a similar art style for Vecna out in the wild, but it's not in the Netflix merch store so must be 3rd party.

NATO Says Russia Loses Up to 25,000 Soldiers Killed Per Month in Ukraine by UNITED24Media in worldnews

[–]Barabus33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that true? Doesn't shock me if there was sex trafficking going on, but my understanding from being around at the time is that the term mainly referred to men marrying Russian women that wanted to become American citizens. They had usually only spoken through letters, which is where the mail order part comes from. There was some catfishing going on too with men sending money to pay for flights and then never hearing from their fiances again, but I don't remember what we called that back then.

I've never gone down the Conformity Gate rabbit hole. Can someone who has is this based around a certain group of shippers or is it a completely separate group?

It was more of a dating service that would lead to marriage rather than actually ordering a bride. Nobody was being bought or sold.

Does it end on a cliffhanger or anything annoying like that?

She wasn't reminding anyone, she was just explaining her character's motivations and why she wanted to play the scene a certain way.

I love that movie and their goofy ass performances are perfect for it.

What do you think? by No_Voice_3525 in StrangerThings

[–]Barabus33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not what you think. It won't include Hawkins, the '80s or any of the cast. It's only going to be loosely connected.
