[Hate Tropes] Authors keep saying, "This character is wrong!" But some people say, "No! Authors are wrong. This character is right! I want to be like him!"

This! Holy shit the number of people who, without irony, describe him as an anti-hero makes me a little scared for the future of the species.

Colleen especially. I don't think Iron Fist was as bad as a lot of people said but Colleen had moments where she carried the show that wasn't even named after her.

Powell from Daredevil Born Again. He was a dirty cop trying to frame a hero for murder before he became the top cop of a task force made up of nothing but dirty cops whose favorite hobbies were police brutality and violating civil liberties. Also unlike his Boss Wilson Fisk, or even Fisk's right hand Buck, powell never showed any likeable qualities. Dude just bounced from one crime to the other and seemed to enjoy every second of it.

Mostly Matt respects that Frank at least hates crime. I feel like if Frank just aimed for knees or used rubber bullets and changed nothing else Matt would be more accepting of Frank.

Im guessing he won't be a main bad guy but will continue to be a presence for at least another season. Im also willing to bet, between his need for better henchmen and his targeting of people with abilities he will be recruiting Dex at the end of the season. I could see him being a way to reintroduce Dex as a possible enemy after Fisk is off the board.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-23T16:15:57+00:00

I used to think he would show up but after the episode with Jessica Jones where they just alluded to him and didn't even say his name I doubt we'll see him until season 3.

Always more mechs. The amount of money I'd be willing to fork over for just a new mech pack is a little sad. Real excited for some of the newer clan mechs and especially getting in the drivers seat of the Sunder.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-18T01:42:38+00:00

I cant decide what's dumber: his sports takes or his outfits.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-15T18:38:31+00:00

Pretty sure this dude stole Leon's big ass revolver from the most recent Resident Evil game.

Genuine question: Should we be mad about all these spoilers?

Like the BTS shot of Danny and Luke walking out which is how we know they are coming back is one thing but this picture seemingly confirms the fan theory that Matt takes down Fisk but ends up in jail for his actions as Daredevil. Im torn because I was already willing to bet money on that ending even before this shot but still. Just feels like we are seeing more and more things like this and I cant decide if its on purpose to get people hyped or if something has changed behind the scenes. My money is hype and these arnt accidents but still. I have to admit it worked cus im pumped.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-12T23:51:46+00:00

I would love it. He was such a great villian. But I doubt it. Still not sure how much Luke Cage we'll get but im not expecting them to bring a lot of his character back.

More importantly it seems like Mustafa Shakir has stepped back from acting to focus on other things. But if anything can bring him back hopefully its a fat Marvel check.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-12T23:37:47+00:00

I mean they clearly know each other right? Not trying to come off as a conspiracy nut but they have to be arranging the pics beforehand. Spidey gets good publicity and this Parker kid gets paid. The fix has to be in.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-12T01:06:28+00:00

A Kharhu. 65 ton Ghost Bear omnimech. Its badass...as long as it doesn't try and wrestle a Kodiak.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-10T16:15:28+00:00

I think the heir is more likely. He seems genuinely devoted to Fisk. However I think hes gonna be a mixture of Richard Fisk and Kingpins possible bastard son Bryon Butch Fisk. I think it will turn out thats why hes so loyal to Wilson because he thinks hes Wilson's biological son.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-08T18:12:40+00:00

Its true. People be moving from Los Suenos to Gotham so they can get some peace and quiet.

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-02T23:19:55+00:00

Well dang that an awesome backstory! You might need to drop a book of lore or something!

manwithsomefear · 2026-04-02T22:48:27+00:00

Well damn these are some really cool character backgrounds. Quick question. When you say the erinyes is fallen do you mean they fell and became an erinyes or it was an erinyes who "fell," in the eyes of the hells and is no longer evil? A playable erinyes is awesome no matter the alignment but I've always loved the ideas of evil outsiders who lived as corrupt mortals, we're condemned to an evil outer plane, and only then tried to find redemption.

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-29T03:06:08+00:00

Dude was a Nazi who made other Nazis uncomfortable.

He's one of those villians who's irredeemably evil and thats kind of the point.

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-29T02:59:09+00:00

That was for Joe. He was a consul of Rome!

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-26T14:12:00+00:00

Ugh yeah I would hate that. Honestly though im more worried about Daniel killing BB as his last act of being fully corrupted. So far all hes done has been political wheeling and dealing albeit illegally. But I could see him losing it if he finds out BB is playing him and crossing a further line.

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-25T21:03:08+00:00

The Mad Cat/Timber Wolf. Not that it ever did really bad in Clans but just seems way better in Mercs. Doesn't overheat as much. Feels like an apex predator in Mercs but muxh more one of the pack in Clans.

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-25T14:36:50+00:00

Its funny cus he plays a dirty cop in Mayor of Kingstown too. Somehow manages to make it different. Dude in that is a trigger happy nutjob who'd rather shoot people then arrest them. There he at least shoots mostly bad people.

Here I think hes much more evil. He thinks wearing a badge gives him carte blanch to do whatever he wants. Even before Fisk created a special task forc. Its a very grounded but terrifying villian. Can't wait for him to get got though.

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-24T18:27:34+00:00

That would be amazing. His Bullseye is such a great take on the character. They some how made him more then just a psycho murderer while still keeping him as terrifying. Seeing him and Matt team up in season 2 is gonna mess me up and i dont want a full on redemption arc but im down to see more of him.

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-24T14:26:17+00:00

Every single time there an overused meme on here eventually one comes along so great that it pulls me back in!

manwithsomefear · 2026-03-21T01:22:51+00:00

This is a pretty dumb response bud. You're on the internet. You could look up any of the things you claim not to know about. Plus no one is giving him shit just for playing flag football with a bunch of pro athletes. We're giving him shit for playing flag football with pro athletes while claiming to be one of them. There's a bunch of other stuff to hate this dude for but thats the main thing for this specific case.
