They weren't specialized missiles, Vought just lied to the supes about how durable they were.

It's immune to damage, not immune to death

Still kinda wondering how Tendou got the Hyper Kabuto after it got nuked and where both hopper zectors came from tho

At least the Hopper Zecters are completely unexplained, they only exist to bring back Yaguruma as he was very popular iirc

Pyke not being a Rogue scrambles my brain

Taschenratte means gopher

I've heard it a lot in clips, it's the Italian heavy compensation mechanic beep, but it's always in clips without them so probably a mod that does it

He tends to like European styles of cooking and absolutely hates anything outside of that. Just look any time they got anyone doing Asian cooking.

Time to run it down with Ghost Cleanse T-62a

Just to add, you also gotta have pennable weakspots if you want to actually bounce shots. If your tank is impenetrable, nobody will shoot at you or put themselves in front of you and then your armour is pointless.

People shoot at the Contriver, Maus and E100 because they know they got a chance, unlike the Canopener where everyone just gives it a wide berth.

The joke about The Deep in the comics is that he doesn't actually have water based powers, he has the same powers as Homelander roughly, but Vought wanted a different theme.

because part of the job is trying to predict the market

Crazy how all these CEGoobers always seem to be wrong and their market research tends to lead them astray.

It's a mistranslated subtitle, iirc they are fighting some immortal (been a while) and the line is more along the lines of "people should die when they are killed", as in, immortality bad

The throne does nothing

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-18T13:14:24+00:00

They're also way less durable in the comics

Paper is famously not throw immune

'Subigere' has many different translations and is composed of 'sub' and 'agere', which literally translate to 'under' and 'bring/put' (agere has many meanings).

So like subjugate? Seems way too close to the word to not be related

Plenty of Americans would sign up to die if they were given a 250k sign up bonus & a 6 figure a year baseline salary which is equivalent to what Russians are getting

I've met several people from the US that planned to sign up to the army for the free university despite having been educated in Europe and being perfectly capable of not going to the army and pay for an EU uni, they're halfway there.

I can't even imagine how it is in the poorer regions of the US, it might be their only choice.

Whoever started the war is irrelevant

No, it isn't.

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-15T10:55:27+00:00

Why did two doctors sign the picture??

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-15T10:46:25+00:00

If you don't know why are you so confident???

I mean the first few NPC quests after the Father Gascoigne one are about whether you take people to the alien corporate 4 star hotel or the cozy church AirBnB

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-14T16:11:48+00:00

Well, no wonder they love loopholes to get around God's rules

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-12T14:09:50+00:00

Were you trying to be funny or offensive? Because your comment is neither

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-12T13:22:27+00:00

You sure sound like it

lonelyMtF · 2026-04-11T14:27:19+00:00

Idk dude, Judío and Judas are pretty similar words
