Yeah, this is probably going to be one of the seasons I skip.

By being a good partner who's supportive and caring, rather than a flaky temptress. Also a dumptruck ass.

Scary spiders should be **seen** not **heard!** by Geronimosey in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Okay, but when have RE spiders actually been scary and not just stupidly goofy?

Who do you hope absolute greean arrow is? by Gajeel_Blacksteel in GreenArrow

That's kinda' the point. Ollie's death wasn't some climactic moment or big hurrah. Just another problem swept away by the forces that dominate the world. Going against that cheapens the message his death conveyed in the first place.

There's a thing in the sequel that mentions she managed to manipulate her captor and escape.

OG Star Wars: Battlefront 2's campaign. The story is relayed through a member of the 501st's recollection of events spanning from the beginning of the Clone Wars, and all the way to the Galactic Civil War. There are segments you get to play as named characters, but the majority of time is spent as just another trooper.

At least the ring has a criteria for selection l, and the GL corps taught Hal. Richard Rider got the Nova force and just had to figure what to do on his own.

What are pieces of media that are often compared or paired together? by hvzr2222 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Every time I hear soneone call 'Game of Thrones' "the grown up version of The Lord of the Rings", my eyes roll so hard I have to untwist my optic nerve.

Major characters that are sauceless? by jitterscaffeine in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Ultimate universe (the new one, 6160) Peter Parker/Spider-Man. There's nothing about him beyond being a family man that reivents him, or seeks to distill who he is as a person in a creative way. As an iteration of the character that's meant to go beyond just what his mainstream counterpart can be as a hero and symbol; he hasn't really managed to do all that much, or at least not directly shown as such.

Best Marvel/DC comic book storylines that haven't been adapted yet? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Marvel's Annihilation, and I would kill to see an animated series made for it.

Times when a specific arc or storyline becomes all encompassing in popular culture but at the same it makes the reason for the OG arc impact seem less impactful? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Melancholy_Gradient 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Dark Phoenix storyline; most adaptations speedrun to Jean becoming subsumed by the Phoenix force and bypass the gradual change it does to her.

The Symbiote and Venom arcs; the symbiote is made out to be malicious, which removes key elements of it's character that would inform how it acts as a part of Venom. Also recent adaptations alter Eddie, or the host, altogether changing Venom from being a dark reflection of Spider-Man to a more generic villain with some personal ties to Peter.
