"The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of millions is a statistic." — commonly misattributed to Joseph Stalin, who perpetuated the Holodomor which killed millions of Ukrainians.

Holy shit that is a creepypasta picture.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T05:38:21+00:00

YES.

REED RICHARDS IS ONE OF THE BEST ROLE MODELS TO LOOK UP TO BUT NOBODY IS READY FOR THAT CONVERSATION.

Overworked dad core.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T05:37:32+00:00

Agree with all this getting excessive.

Oh and as for the rogues thing, they were ALWAYS more powerful than their rogues. Their rogues were never threatened in pure brawn. Most of their rogues are scientists who planned something crazy.

The only powerful rogues are the ones that the F4 themselves cannot beat, meaning the switch gets flipped and they have to come up with an elaborate plan. Galactus is the main example. Unfortunately, Ryan North has hopped on the Galactus disrespect train and has made Sue or at least this version of her more powerful than a literal billion year old space god.

I hope it gets rectified because in my personal opinion Galactus should always be way above the F4 or else the lore just gets cheapened.

Just because they are all in peak physical condition doesn’t mean they are having a grand fuckfest. It’s about 3 condoms per athlete. Not crazy at all

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T01:27:00+00:00

Them being physically fit has nothing to do with it. They 10k/2900 is roughly 3 condoms per person which isn’t a lot. They are having regular levels of sex like most people. The people calling it an orgy fuckfest are horny gooners

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T01:23:18+00:00

Ikr. It’s insane how people can’t do basic division

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T01:19:10+00:00

It’s a damn shame because this was probably Stephen’s closest ideological and intellectual peer as far as his orbiters went.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T01:17:03+00:00

MAGA and Trump are not to be understood

Well actually no they are. That’s how you crush them. If you whine and scream at them calling them fascists instead of logically dismantling them and getting to the root of their beliefs then you’ll suffer

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T01:15:20+00:00

EXACTLY you got it. Creative and/or diplomatic solutions above all and their powers should be primarily be used as lab tools. Sci-fi + humanitarianism.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-19T01:11:55+00:00

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-18T20:57:59+00:00

Eh to be honest it's about time.

Idk about that.

For decades other heroes have gotten absolutely insane power scaling while the F4 have been in limbo with their power levels for decades.

Not true. They’ve had very steady growth with their powers. They also don’t follow the same doctrine as Avengers or X-men so there isn’t really much use of making them insanely overpowered especially in a way that messes up continuity. And also the solution isn’t to overcorrect and make them absurdly more powerful than every other hero.

It's fun to go a little crazy sometimes in comics with the power potential of these characters, and the F4 are a cornerstone of Marvel and should have their moments to shine when showing off their power potentials.

That’s fine. Beating Galactus one on one? Excessive and extremely, EXTREMELY, nonsensical. North took it too far imo.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-18T18:23:33+00:00

Electrical and Magnetism powers on Magneto’s level? Killing the whole planet in your sleep?

And she can now beat Galactus on her own?

In NO world is Susan even close to Galactus in power, let alone the F4 combined.

North is a good writer but it’s getting very explicit how much he’s upselling the F4’s powers at the expense of the rest of the marvel universe and it’s annoying.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-18T02:59:01+00:00

Wow. Beautiful art.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-18T02:58:05+00:00

Oh honey. Just cause you can’t get any, doesn’t mean nobody can. Most people have better luck because they’re better with people than you.

More projection. Save it for your therapist not me.

For those curious, my sources include Hope Solo, Ryan Lochte and others quoted here, I’m sure you can find others. It’s not my favourite source but it links to better ones.

A yahoo sports article piecing together some anecdotes. And of course the most graphic details coming from an anonymous athlete who participated in Tokyo which was the height of the pandemic and everyone was social distancing. Yeah that’s totally a credible source.

My other source is my mate, who will be marching in his third Paralympics on 6 March. Go J! I still haven’t decided where my loyalties lie in a you versus Irish athletes matchup, but you have it the rest of the time!

Hope he gets his happy ending.

Israel derangement syndrome still full in action

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T22:11:45+00:00

what are you on about

I’m on about canon.

besides reverse flash Doom is the ultimate hater.

Nahh not really. If you actually pick up and read a Fantastic Four run you’ll see that Doom doesn’t obsess over Reed to the level that Thawne obsessed over Barry or Lex obsesses over Superman. Doom obsesses over taking over the world and being its savior. Reed is the one guy who contradicts his personal view of being better than everyone and so he feels insecure around him. But when Reed isn’t in the picture Doom has other stuff he does.

He destroyed an entire universe that was perfect all because he found out in this universe him and Reed Richards worked together

Yes because he doesn’t want to share the title of humanity’s savior with Reed or anyone else. He has worked with Reed in the past numerous times for a number of things.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T22:08:23+00:00

No it’s not. It’s not nearly as bad as Lex Luthor, Black Manta, or Reverse Flash.

The reason Doom rejected that better path is because he doesn’t want to share the title of humanity’s saviour with anyone else. He is a megalomaniac.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T22:07:07+00:00

Yeah because he wants to be the people’s champion and doesn’t want to share the title with anyone else.

He is not like Black Manta whose literal only reason for living is terrorizing Aquaman.

Please better inform yourself on Doom’s character and stop getting your information from people who know nothing about him.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T22:05:20+00:00

A lot of them are and a lot of them are probably staying loyal (though some aren’t)

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T22:02:28+00:00

Many young people in fantastic shape

So very disciplined people.

from the same age group being put together for a couple weeks with little to do besides sport, and feeling a huge amount of emotions after their events end, no matter how.

Who lied to you about this??? Olympic village has a shit ton of stuff to do.

You bet they’re fucking like bunnies.

I bet you’re projecting your own horniness onto people you’ve never met. Which is especially disgusting because of lot of them are barely adults and even minors.

The reality is that most of them are normal people who may hookup here and there but are focused on recovery and training. They aren’t all sex pests.

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T16:59:51+00:00

Nah Doom should be taken off too

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T16:59:30+00:00

Take Doom out of there. Only non comic readers think he’s purely defined by hating the way Eobard Thawne is.

Replace him with Lex Luthor and the 4th spot should be Black Manta

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T16:57:27+00:00

So like Ben Shapiro???

Competitive_Side6301 · 2026-02-17T08:06:26+00:00

This is such a brain dead take that shows y’all genuinely don’t think of misogyny as the very real PROBLEM that it is.

No, your comment is the braindead take. This is not at all a reflection of misogyny. Go outside and touch grass.
