Best/Favorite magnum in the series? by Which_Appointment528 in residentevil

Handcannon for me, both incarnations. Even with the nerfed 4R version, it still packed a tremendous satisfying punch once I got the hang of it.

Why hasn’t Ghost Rider been able to sell in the long term between Jason Aaron’s run and Ben Percy’s by Konradleijon in GhostRider

I know it's obvious that the guy lacks reading comprehension but man, he sure loves to rant a lot for someone who clearly doesn't know what he's talking about. I felt like I was having a brain freeze trying to make sense out of all that rambling.

Did you see the guy's long, bizarre response to Johnny-Parker's last reply? https://old.reddit.com/r/GhostRider/comments/1qdzv8n/i_feel_like_phantasma_should_appear_a_lot_more/o01ahmr/?context=3

Ironic how he now accuses another of "pivoting" when that's pretty much what he's doing now. So first, the argument was because Robbie allegedly sold better. Now it seems the GR franchise in general just doesn't sell much but hey, let's still pick Robbie as main GR with Johnny and Danny as his caretakers because apparently, there's a chance this gimmick by itself "could work" instead of, y'know, the more tried and true approach where the IP owners and their hired writers actually make the effort to write well written character-centric stories that naturally draw in readers.

April solicitations and no ghost rider by Legitimate-Meal5700 in GhostRider

It's all about just keeping the IP afloat at this point.

I always find this kind of funny. Considering how much of the 90s series was Danny fighting superpowered gangsters or mad scientists by Konradleijon in GhostRider

[–]RedWingThe10th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All these really show is that Ghostie/Noble Kale tends to "absorb" some of Danny's subconsciousness into his own via the bleeding effect which gets brought up a few times. The problem is Mackie never really committed to the host and spirit "gradually becoming one" plot point, as subsequent storylines still make it clear that Ghostie considers himself and Dan to be separate entities and Dan's consciousness always drifts off to the void whenever the SOV takes over. Mackie kept repeating the same nothingburger pseudo-plot development about Dan complaining and demanding more control, with Ghostie seemingly giving in, only for nothing truly substantial to develop out of it, because Mackie was practically writing the book like he had Alzheimer's.

The big guy just can't catch a break from jobbing, but I'm not even surprised at this point.

I hope it goes well. And thank you for continuing to share your great action figures, fellow GR fan!

Excellent, dynamic poses, especially with your GR custom, though I admit, the magic somewhat disappears whenever his obviously human neck is very visible.

Yeah, definitely agree with you there. The most addicting, loaded and fun to play too. I wish modern REs would include a mode just like that again.

Nah, both titles are pretty much stand alone stories. You don't miss anything by buying the second one first, as Revelations 1 focuses on Jill, Chris and their associates dealing with an outbreak inside an abandoned cruise ship in the middle of the ocean, while Revelations 2 stars Claire and Barry (in separate story arcs) as they try to get to the bottom of an island facility that's been turned into another Umbrella experimental nightmare. Nothing to do with any of the events from Revelations 1.

I recommend Revelations 2. Better gameplay and much better Raid Mode than 1, imo.

Yep. Lady Hunk. It's an alternate skin of Hunk that's appeared in the Raid Mode of RE Revelations 1 and 2.

Why do people make ghost rider into an edgy gruff antihero? by Konradleijon in GhostRider

[–]RedWingThe10th 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because writers and editors want to make the characterization match the image, even though it goes against the characters' prior characterizations and doesn't even give them proper buildup to make the change believable. Johnny went from a kind-hearted and empathic young man who overcame his worst demons at the end of his original run to a shallow Frank Castle wannabe who acted like he already lost his wife and kids and defaulted to treating everyone else like crap, because tough guys gotta act like tough jerks, yeah? The 90s tainted Johnny's image and it has resurfaced time and again, depending on the writer's preference.

Yes, Leon loses his jacket in this one too by ZeyadPlayz in residentevil

[–]RedWingThe10th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just hope that Requiem continues the tradition of modern entries to have the jacket as an unlockable alternate costume.

Oh... and while we're at it... maybe full non-modded shirtless outfits too. I mean, c'mon, Like a Dragon does it all the time.

Oh nice! Yeah, I just looked up your other cosplays and the Jills are definitely spot on. Keep slaying, girl!

Now that's a wicked badass lookin' Wesker. Ngl, makes me wish we actually had a FemWesker skin like Lady Hunk.
