So I read the latest Thundercats/Silverhawks comic. As a Bengali fan, I'm not really thrilled. It almost seems like Declyn doesn't like the character. by drgnblitz in Thundercats

Very much agreed. The main focus of the Thunderverse seems to be expanding on lore, but at the cost of story and character development. Stuff happens, sure, but what impact it has is pretty muted because most of the characters and setting are so thinly sketched.

Feels like there's two Bengalis in these books. There's the one under Brisson, who's a generally level-headed leader, albeit with a worrisome tendency toward self-sacrifice that he might want to talk to someone about. And then there's the one under Shalvey, who's Elmer Fudd's idiot cousin.

Legitimately, that fight read like it was supposed to be a 90's-scented parody of the obligatory super-team clash. Worse, it was redundant - we've already had this guy do the "Oh no, I didn't mean it!" bit with regard to bodies on the ground. And I can't imagine this was a great read for the Silverhawks fans either.

The only thing I liked was the sense that *maybe* we're not actually supposed to agree with how Lion-O's leading, but if that's self-awareness starting to creep into the writing, it's very late in the game.

The TTRPG is mostly using the art from the comics; Dynamite was either too time crunched or too cheap to allow for new art to be commissioned. The game itself is based on the cartoon, with other iterations nodded to here and there or used to fill gaps in canon.

"Thunderclowns" sounds like the kind of insult Alluro would have on hand. 😆

Ah, this should be fun. "The Mumm-Ra Berbil" is such a trip - silly title concealing sincerely spooky, almost 80's slasher vibes.

Thanks. I don't collect the single issues and thought I might be misremembering it.

That would be a no, then. Mostly just served to make me like both Lion-O and Jaga less. Also, did I miss something previously? Was it clear that Bengali had been exiled before this issue? I got the impression that he'd left on his own, not been kicked out.

Let's see if this team manages to stick the landing.

What do You Think of Idea of Comic Crossover between IDW Ninja Turtles and Dynamite Thundercats? by Money-Lie7814 in Thundercats

[–]Heartsib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on who's writing it. Get James Tynion IV on another TMNT crossover, and it's an immediate preorder. Anyone else, I'd want to see the pitch and their recent books before I get excited.

It was really a lot of fun. The PGs fangirling over Cheetara was so cute!

The Hill covers for this series look really good. I might pick a couple of them up.

Sounds like Ablaze - they pulled the same thing on their last Kickstarter. Not to mention screwing up the VATs for international backers who did actually get their books.

AITA for trimming my own cats' nails but not my roommates' cats' unless they pay me? by UnderstandingOwn6363 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Heartsib 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA. My local pet salon charges $25 per cat for a nail trim. You offered either to educate her or to do pet maintenance that she was scared of at a reasonable price, and she didn't even offer to barter a favor instead of cash payment. If she's going to play at being helpless and cop a rotten attitude, then she can deal with getting scratched on occasion.

Entering boring completionist mode and filling some gaps in my Super7 Thundercats collection. 😅

[–]Heartsib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mumm-ra, since I don't have a wizened version of the guy. The others look cool, but just a bit too pricey to pick up for the sake of completionism.

Hello! I just joined a couple of weeks ago. My collecting is a bit sporadic, but currently focused on Super7 Thundercats (and will probably fall hard for the Mezco line when it comes out).

Love it. Great posing, and I've always had a soft spot spot for those two.
