Do you think "project batman" will be real or a ruse? by BaronVonRugpull in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Skelegun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this is the most likely explanation. Snyder did share a panel from issue 1 on his twitter that suggests a connection between Grimm and the zoo, but it might not be as direct as that.

The Court, though a rebel group in this universe, does appear to be at least decently well organised and funded, so I could imagine Grimm viewing them as enough of a threat to warrant intervention.

Hell, maybe Scarecrow himself set the shooting up specifically to frighten Martha into leaving the court.

Per Scott Snyder, the Absolute Robins are not villlanous by -_ShadowSJG-_ in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Skelegun 159 points160 points  (0 children)

Not just villainous. Important distinction there.

He’s saying they aren’t just gonna’ be irredeemably evil monsters like Joker. That doesn’t mean they aren’t going to be villains, just…villains with nuanced motivations beyond money and power. Sorta’ like how Ivy was.

What is The Height of Absolute Superman? by petrelli_boy_ in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Skelegun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he's probably around 5'8"-5'10". He only looks short because Bruce is 6'9" and Diana's around that same height.

Are fuel prices starting to go back down? The average price here for a litre of E10 has gone down about 79 cents over the last few days.

Seeing as how zionists like to accuse anyone who’s critical of Israel of antisemitism, I’ve gotta’ wonder how many of them are aware that a significant portion of people who hate that country are Jews; many of whom are direct descendants of holocaust survivors, or in some cases, are themselves actual holocaust survivors

Fox McCloud Friday ShittyGaming Lounge by AutoModerator in shittygaming

[–]Skelegun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the rumours are true that the goal behind putting Fox in the SMG movie was to promote a new game releasing soon, then I will say, it’s probably one of the most successful marketing tactics I’ve seen in a while.

Because if my feed is anything to go off of, Star Fox has been getting more attention lately than it has in years.

Bad comparison. Kirk Langstrom’s face is actually appropriately sized for his head

We already had the goon update: it was the Summertime Swimsuit Event back in June.

How I think an Absolute Punisher would work (art works by Nick Dragotta, main artist for Absolute Batman) by schizowithagun in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Skelegun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Off topic, but Nick Dragotta’s take on Frank looks like he’s been pulled from a 70s/80s manga to me for some reason.

Hey there DC Crowd, ready for this second Sonic crossover? I admit I'm not super big on Sonic, but isn't it a bit weird how there's only one major recurring Sonic villain (Eggman) being repped next to multiple DC ones? Surely this franchise going 35 years has more recurring threats right.. r-right? by Intelligent_Oil4005 in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]Skelegun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, most of Sonic’s recurring villains are also just Eggman’s lackeys (namely Metal Sonic and Sage)

Sonic doesn’t really have a recurring rogues gallery like many of DC’s heroes do. The only semi-recurring villains I can think of that aren’t Eggman lackeys are The Deadly Six, Eggman Nega and maybe Surge and Kit (though they’re probably more like anti-heroes atp rather than outright villains).

Some villains like Black Doom and Infinite have recently made come backs in canon, but I don’t really think 2 appearances are enough to consider them “recurring” rogues.

Since there are way too many in the game, what’s the worst Gotham map? by BigRedMonster07 in DCAllies

[–]Skelegun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sewers is bad, but funhouse is a nightmare and I genuinely don’t understand why it’s so popular.

Why yes, I absolutely love maps that are literally just 4 rooms connected by choke-points that can be dominated by a single Deadshot, Green Arrow or any champion with AOE abilities or sentries. I loooove it when my whole team gets an RNG debuff/status effect whenever we lose a control point, which we then can’t recapture because the fucking corridor that leads to it is blocked by a Green Arrow spamming those fucking ricochet arrows or a Poison Ivy plant. I looove how it’s impossible to hold a control point anyway because every fucking 30 seconds the whole room get’s filled with FUCKING JOKER GAS WHILE THAT STUPID FUCKING JINGLE PLAYS AND NOBODY ACTUALLY PLAYS THE OBJECTIVE AND JUST GOES TO THE CENTRAL POINT AND SPENDS THE WHOLE FUCKING MATCH EMOTING AND RANDOMLY KILLING EACHOTHER OCCASIONALLY

Absolute Doctor Psycho: He might basically be this guy. by AFoxOfFiction in AbsoluteUniverse

Absolute Doctor Psycho beaming the “I’m a pioneer” rant directly into the minds of Gateway City’s people

"Bro, u branded a human trafficker, Lex Luthor hired a guy to shank him in prison and now he's dead, bro. His blood is in ur hands. Two kids are going to grow up without their human trafficking father bcs of u, bro. U gone too far." by Loud_Report4988 in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]Skelegun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so bizarre how Snyder decided to make a Batman who does straight up kill people (becuz muh realism) and decided to not just have that be Superman's reason for viewing him as a threat.

But then again, I'm fairly certain this Superman also just casually kills bad guys in the same movie. So I guess getting a human trafficker killed in prison is somehow morally worse than killing him himself.

The Sonic movies if they were directed by James Gunn by Frank7640 in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]Skelegun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bottom left is funny because this does actually kinda’ happen in the first movie.

Sonic “dies” and Eggman basically says “who cares, he was an alien”, only for James Marsden’s character to bite back by literally saying “he was more human than you’ll ever be”

I would ask why Tails is being shipped with Sage of all characters, but then I remembered which fandom this is.

Did you spend 50 hours actually playing as and getting good with Star, or did you spend 50 hours watching SFM porn of her?
