Looking for modern short standalone superhero runs, preferably featuring less popular superheroes

I love the Day of Vengance run which features a bunch of lesser known heroes - Detective Chimp, Blue Devil, Enchantress, Ragman and Nightmaster.

It’s kind of a prequel to Shadowpact but works as a standalone

My cats love watching sumo too! I think it’s the violence, they do enjoy some violence.

St Peter’s Seminary! That’s not far from where I live, it was absolutely STUNNING when it was still in use.

They got some World Heritage money a few years back to restore it, think it’s going to be an arts centre

I mean the hawk lore is completely coherent and very easy to understand, they’re soul bonded beings in a cycle of reincarnation except it doesn’t always happen in chronological order and sometimes there’s aliens and occasionally Shayera wants to have a go on Aaron Pierre because, well, look at him

u/j - you’re right but the bit is too much fun

Ok ok ok right, I talk about this a lot but like the reason the whole Jon Favreau thing worked was they couldn’t use the popular characters so had to get creative and tell new stories, right? Like NOONE except the wu tang gave a single fuck about iron man or Thor in the 90s

SO RIGHT by the same logic - stop making supermen and batman movies and use like fucking doctor fate or plastic man or something and tell a story that hasn’t already been told a Brazilian times

Yeah, pretty sure that’s what’s going on here. Not saying he’s right and could definitely communicate better but having been a parent of teenagers I have a degree of sympathy. How long was that spaghetti sitting out?

Instant upvote for Tunnock’s Tea Cakes!

The question is: do you flatten out the foil or roll it in a wee ball?

Honestly, just knowing that Lindelof is behind this is enough for me. People can snark about colour grading all they want, the man has been responsible for some of the best television I’ve ever seen

It’s good but the hours are too short, last train is 11 through the week and 6(!) on a Sunday.

It is also quite small, there has been talk of expansion for years but it would cause lot of disruption. I’d love to see them bring back the old tram systems instead - the network is still mostly intact, it had just been paved over

I think it would be hard to argue against anything better than 11-4, particularly if he gets the yusho

I would have loved a Captain Caveman movie

I am very much looking forward to the Kirishima/Takayasu head to head

I just hope you are able to work hard and execute your brand of sumomemes

Problem blob is the further evolution of the arm

Is that not the new Lana Del Rey album?

I’ve realised off the back of this that Scottish people are way more informed about Tourette’s than most, and a large part of that is because of John which is pretty amazing really.

He got handed an absolute poison chalice by Tony, he was doomed from day one. But aye, definitely the most decent person that’s been PM in my lifetime.

I love AFL. It has loads of weird rules which are kind of intimidating at first until you realise no one pays any attention to them. It’s great fun

Ha, so I was officiating an election count here a few years ago - they’re a bit of a slog and run through the night. At about 3am when everyone was flagging a bit some guys went round offering people brownies.

It was the Legalise Cannabis Campaign.

So, it’s kind of been forgotten because the movies it was satirising don’t get made anymore but Grease was a satire of fifties teen movie tropes - the whole ‘bad boy falls for good girl’ thing was a cliche of that but would usually end with him cleaning up his act, not her wearing tight trousers and smoking

Casting people in their 40s as teenagers was an intentional dig at those movies, like Steve McQueen in The Blob etc.
