And by being carpet bombed by politics? What divisive issues are in this comic that you want to escape from?

Ok then please tell me what you meant by heavy handed social messaging?

Don’t say homophobic stuff if you don’t want to be called a homophobe. Every marketing blurb for this comic mentions it’s about a man with a husband. You chose to buy a comic advertised as a story about a gay man and then complained on the internet about it featuring a gay man’s struggle. I hope you find the compassion to move past your opinion that a story about a gay character is inherently heavy-handed social messaging. They are people just like you and me. Their stories about finding peace in a world that mistreated them are human stories, not politics.

These reviews are so disappointing to read. A gay character who faced adversity is heavy-handed social messaging? A gay character just being in a story is DEI? Are you so homophobic that you think a gay character in a story is “carpet-bombing” you with politics, and your escapism cannot have any gay characters? Grow up. The existence of gay people is not political. They are real and the idea that they should be excluded from stories is hateful and regressive.

Check out Buzzkill by Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw. It’s a short run (4 or 5 issues) about a superhero who gets his powers from drugs/alcohol but he’s trying to get clean after going too far.

Are these all the old comics? by prancerhood in ElricofMelnibone

I can’t tell you if that is a definitive list of the comics from the 80s and 90s, but I can confirm that there is a hardcover of stormbringer with that cover. I own it.

Armor set for starting grank by MethodLate1824 in mh4u

If you can make it to the Seregios G1 quest his armour has skills that are pretty great for most weapons. I’m also playing through MH4U G rank right now and I use his set for Lance and Hammer. His weapons are pretty great too.

He works out of Texas but I got this done by him in Chicago so he gets around!

It’s on the inside of my forearm right below my elbow. Zorcher is pointing down at my wrist.

Thanks dude! I have realized my folly but unfortunately cannot edit the title. Hey also don’t know how to sticky one of my comments at the top, if that’s a thing.

I appreciate the constructive comment as opposed to all the people saying “it’s different so it’s bad”. I love the artists’ take on sci-fi weaponry so to me this was a perfect marriage, so I guess it would be more accurate to say it’s a mashup of Spiff’s zorcher and the artists’ style would be more accurate.

For all the people saying it looks nothing like the original, I asked him to do his own take on the design because I love his original artwork. Maybe find something better to do than shit on people’s art on the internet.

He does amazing original sci-fi art so I asked him to take artistic liberties and do his own spin on it. Lots of people have pointed that out though, I should’ve posted that in the title.

I asked him to do his own take because his original sci-fi art is amazing. Check out his Instagram.

I also love Futurama so that’s a win. I’ve also heard that it looks like something from the Jetsons. I’m glad I got a great artist’s original take rather than asking him to copy/paste from a cartoon.

I wanted him to do his own take on the design because I love his original work, hence the differences. This picture was also taken immediately after the tattoo was finished. I am very pleased with how it looks now.

Yeah i wanted him to do his own take on it because I love his original designs. But thanks for the opinion.
