Dammit, how did it end 61-61. I blame Mitch McConnell. And Messi.

It must have been rigged.

MHWilliams
Bakugou regulary loses. He lost vs Deku in the first team challenge, I don't count him winning at the festival as a win...he clearly doesnt think its a win. To someone like Bakugou a victory like that is as bad as a loss. He gets the worst internship, He is the one who gets kidnapped and has to be saved by everyone damaging his pride massively and making him blame himself. He fails the hero exam forcing him to go to summer school. His only real victory has been the second fight vs Deku

ViewtifulJC Nice to see you are so approving of Idol Anime in the OP. A nice change. Welcome to the side of good, friend.

Pretty sad that the title choice involves a quote from a movie and not an actual...you know....comic book.

It only got used because the poll tied in the mins before I posted the thread. Its really sad that we have an op at all.

Also no one here reads comic books so picking a quote from one of them would be pointless, no one would get it.

I cut 10-15% of DC's votes, like they did with their lineup.

EDIT: Why is Marvel publishing a Witchblade comic lol
EDIT2: Doomsday Clock #10 was delayed to April.

You'll find that I wasn't arsed changing it and due to delays I am not picking Doomsday Clock anymore. Its not worth the hassle.

Whats this about witchblade?

4 minutes until the new Hellboy trailer comes out and 4 minutes until I question why they hyped it being like the comics and then did Del Toro's vision all over again.

imo it's good to see both sides can make absolutely embarrassing comics

speaking of, Jawbreakers released and you only really need two panels from it, we don't really need to make it a thing, just look at it and get the cheap laughs

That uh.... that sure is a thing. This year had to be the most offensive black history month in a quite while.
