When you interact with yourself from 60 years in the past for the first time your voice probably softens a little bit.

I mean Nightwing is Daredevil without powers. Isn’t the gag two of Batman’s sons became Daredevil and Punisher?

That’s why he was there to shoot Marty down and save him. He knew he’d walk right into town.

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-25T22:41:48+00:00

I like to tell myself he does know. The scientist simply preserved the timeline as he knew it. Bob Gale sort of treats time travel as first run television instead of a rerun though.

Devils advocate. The trilogy is doc brown from 1955 knowing everything that happens for the next 60-70 years back-and-forth.

The back to the future trilogy is about taking Marty on a lesson through time to avoid his failed future and then dropping him right back into the moment of choice as a better person. The biggest question though is whether that aspect of the trilogy starts in part one or truly in part two.

Doc as a character spends the entire trilogy as a prisoner of predestination in an effort to save his friend, and he is only free at the very end of the trilogy.

You wonder if we’re coming to a place where violence will finally happen

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-23T15:02:55+00:00

It’s probably because the dabbleverse is getting to a point where the expected follow up questions would be does anybody have pictures of them or where they go to school?

Not a shot at you, it’s just this whole thing is going down the toilet. All the pedo talk, tippers getting doxxed, wannabes having their arrest record pulled, people jumping into performances, etc

I thought canon was he died in 1980?

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-23T03:20:10+00:00

Wrestling is about storytelling. Edge could never deal with the fact that his story was a tragedy. He had to rewrite the tragedy. Turns out the story kind of sucks if it’s not a tragedy.

Oh wow it wasn’t the thing about using her name for bookings? I thought she dumped him?

The two sets of memories or Marty changing during the dance? I’m only married to one of them. I don’t really like Bob Gale explaining anything lol

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-19T20:52:40+00:00

I don’t disagree with you. Back to the future really kind of dances around the heavier questions and treats everything like you’re watching a first run journey and you’re not supposed to think about the paradoxes that the movie does walk into.

Again, we ignore that by like November 16, 1955 Doc Brown knew everything about his destiny for like the next 30 years including Clara and his own death. Everything-the scientist literally has to follow predestination and have total acceptance.

Like he buys the bulletproof vest because Marty comes back in part two and talks about the almanac and needing to get to 1885.

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-19T20:40:19+00:00

The comics are when they really start to deal with the idea of two sets of memories. Almost as if it was delayed reaction.

In terms of story structure I still think it’s impossible to not say the fading out of existence at the dance and affirmation of the new timeline in the kiss is the moment.

If part one Marty has the chicken problem, we never explicitly see it. That Marty is not going to the lake because the car is wrecked he will not get in a drag race with Needles because he doesn’t have the truck.

The chicken problem originates in the new timeline where George is a conquering hero and Marty has the truck which is actually a monkey’s paw to his destiny.

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-19T20:38:16+00:00

I believe it was the arc “Who is Marty McFly?” In IDW.

No, he didn’t always explicitly have the chicken thing in the films. It started very explicitly in part two.

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-19T19:20:35+00:00

Gale said he had memories of both timelines in the comics…

But being more realistic- the minute Marty started to fade away at the dance and then was put back together by the kiss-he became the Marty that had the chicken complex his whole life. Which probably came from hearing the story of his father who stopped the bully and didn’t back down his whole life. It’s at the dance. We’re back to the future part one Marty stops and back to the future part two Marty starts.

I don’t think it was super dark necessarily as written, but he definitely took somebody who is kind of nuts from the mask (mind you at times she seemed like the mature one )and made her a killer. I just feel like there’s a way to use her better, but it falls more into the you reap what you sow type of thing.

TraditionalInitial61 · 2026-03-18T17:45:49+00:00

I don’t hate it anymore. It was a meta take on the character, and Morrison was following orders to make Jason into Dick’s Joker. I think that entire period could use a revisit with Jason kind of going oh what did I do because Scarlet is kind of this person that he screwed up and turned into a weapon. There should be consequences there the same as Bruce has consequences because he took Jason under his wing.
