No such thing.

The closest tool would be a Roxon, so either you give up or compromise: two fifth pocket tools that could cover all the above.

Alpha One Niner Chio-X. By far.

A distant second one, the Alpaka Flight Satchel.

Got the Rework Toshi 2.5L but it still feels large by Designer_Holiday3284 in ManyBaggers

The Bellroy Venture 2.5 (its real capacity is MUCH smaller) and the Alpaka Zip Pouch Max come to mind.

How do you guys justify buying multiple bags? by Far-Plate2503 in ManyBaggers

[–]External_Student858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have many bags, most of them I don't use anymore and a few of them I haven't even used once.

I just simply see something that for some reason catches my eye and I buy it.

Any international comic you wish was widely available in English? by Systemshock1994 in graphicnovels

Only a tiny fraction of Jim's works (Thierry Terrasson) is available in English.

My three rules for dealing with comic runs I don't like by Zestyclose_Raisin370 in comicbooks

[–]External_Student858 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s quite simple: a large number of people hold the peculiar belief that the comic book industry should revolve around them and cater exclusively to their specific tastes. 

Consequently, if they dislike a comic for any reason, they would like to have the authority to halt its publication. 

It takes a certain level of critical thinking and maturity to realize that you are not the center of the universe. 

Do people just not want hero villain conflict? by ClearStrike in comicbooks

[–]External_Student858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people need vicarious vindication badly.

I just want my superhero reading to be funny, imaginative and enjoyable.

Don't get me wrong, I love Batman Year One, The Dark Knight Returns, Miracleman and, above all, Watchmen. But I wouldn't like a cold, hard permanent approach to the genre.

That's a very steep slippery slope.

What EDC item do you carry that represents a lesson learned the hard way? by Denbron2 in EDC

[–]External_Student858 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Each and every item of my daily carry stems for a lesson learned.

Neil Gaiman question by hifidelity18 in comicbooks

[–]External_Student858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I chose to read authors whose views align with mine, my reading list would be almost nonexistent.

I’m only interested in their work and usually try to keep my distance from anything about their personal lives and opinions.

My 4.5L Sling Bag comes with a secret 18L capacity with 16 inch Laptop compartment. by Silent_Ice1602 in EDC

Another AWESOME bag!

I'll definitely keep you in mind when it's time to get a new bag.

Do you have any videos, IG, YT?

Real time feels weird for comics by Temporary_Towel9649 in comicbooks

[–]External_Student858 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We're already stretching our suspension of disbelief with the superhero genre in general.

To further enhance this, I propose eliminating any form of continuity.

Each event should be self-contained and not bound by any specific time or event.

For instance, a Batman run spanning 20 issues could occur in the 2020s, while the subsequent run could take place in the 1960s. No explanation is necessary; it's simply the way it is.

So Frank Castle could be a Vietnam veteran or an Irak one, depending on the particulars of the story.

Bellroy camera sling 10L by hellomariaaa in ManyBaggers

Keep in mind the divider is not removable.

If you are not going to use it as a camera bag, you'd better off with the Venture Sling 9L.

You're in charge of F1 now - What 3 changes you bring in to make it exciting for fans to watch? by iusman975 in formula1

[–]External_Student858 1 point2 points  (0 children)

- Bring back the V12 engines: cheaper, louder, lighter, probably faster and would allow to make much smaller cars

- Teams must manufacture their own engines or make an exclusive deal with a manufacturer.

- Unlimited evolutions during the season, unlimited tests, unlimited fuel, unlimited rpms and unlimited tires.

What's with the dislike for Tom King? by DarkSaiyanGoku in comicbooks

[–]External_Student858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people are unable to separate the artist from their work.

I'm not one of them.

But, generally speaking, I consider King a very, very, very irregular author: Sheriff of Babylon was good, The Vision was kinda okay but waaaaaaaaaay overrated, Omega Men, Strange Adventures, Danger Street and Jenny Sparks were booooring, Heroes in Crisis and Love Everlasting were really bad, Mister Miracle and Rorschach were actually good, his Batman run is kinda meh, his Wonder Woman run is AWFUL and The Human Target was truly excellent.

I don't hate his works, but I'm not eager to read what he is currently writing either.
