" @Gambler: this is kinda off topic but gambler where did you find that pic xD also i hate when X comic hero says he can't kill X villian even though he knows that if he does not people are going to die, it makes NO sense. "
This reminded me of something that annoyed me... I got 'Under the Hood Volume Two' recently, and Batman's actions in that make no sense whatsoever. It's one thing to not kill the Joker yourself. Fine, whatever, that's your choice dude. But not letting someone else kill him? Trying to actually save the Joker's life? Why?
Frank Miller + Prostitutes = Really? Again? Frank Miller + Ninja's = Common... enough already. Frank Miller + Ninja-like Prostitutes = …oh for Christ sake! Covering them all in seemingly random expressionistic swastikas = Priceless.
Point is...here's two cents, Frank! You're wasted up, buy yourself some new ideas.
" Accelerated health/Healing factors! It was cool and different in the begining, but it seems like everybody has one now (I got one for christmas!) "
i agree there are a lot of over used powers out there like how many people can move things with there mind or move faster than a speeding bullet.(all i got for christmas was a deer skin rug from my girlfriend)
I am so tired of reading about the cocky arrogant Doosh who cracks a few awefull rubbish yet learns to be humble Dark and brooding I can deal with but full of beans characters who play the comic relief in a silly desperate way make me want to invent the ray gun and evaporate my eyeballs
Women who go into an epic fight wearing little more than a thong *cough, aspen, cough*. Honestly, buy yourself a decent outfit to go fight in. If a rosebush can kick your ass, your clothes are too skimpy.
The overused "Someone isn't walking away from this fight alive" or just the straight up "Someone will die" in solicitations. It's like they use it just to suck people in and then once you finish the comic it's like, " Well, about thirty lackeys bit the dust..."
But no one important, and never anyone I hope it is. :(
The I see it coming "Care Bear Stare," moment. Where everybody fights the bad guy one at a time but its not tell the end that they all attack at once and save the day.
I'm praying this is not how Blackest Night ends because as its shaping up they even have Carebear Cousins.
i dont have these often, because alot of the cheeseball cliches are what make comics nostalgic for me to begin with, but....
one of the normal human stiff plot support characters, especially a pretty feeble, stiff and untrained one, every once and awhile steps up and takes over some of the hero's work for them. kind of defeats the whole point of the super powered hero character if you ask me, and to be totally honest the idea of characters like Ben Urich or Foggy Nelson or whoever saving the day doesnt appeal to me and is not the reason i read comics. i read them for the hopes one of these saps gets scrapped and the hero goes awol on the bad guy over it. lol.
horror movie characters surviving. its come to the point where you can tell who's going to survive before the movie even starts. its always 1 female especially if she's pregnant, cant go killing preggo's thats just wrong *rolls eyes*, 1 minority cause they dont want to come off as racist, and possibly 1 white guy.that is unless everyone dies in the movie which is always fun. I want the foul mouthed ignorent annoying character who everyone hates to live for once!
pregnancy in any show its an over used concept that writers just put in cause they've run out of idea's. and once the brat is born the show usually begins to suck cause it takes on a family first vibe.
a villain is getting away the hero has only one bullet left in his gun, he calms down slows his breath closes one eye lines up the shot and by some miracle managers to hit and kill the villain.
morals in games where the entire point of a game is to choose between good and evil
HOUSE TAKING 42 MINUTES OF A 46 MINUTE SHOW TO FIGURE OUT WHATS WRONG WITH THE PATIENT!!!! IF HE'S SO SMART HE SHOULD KNOW WHAT IT IS FROM THE FIRST DROP OF THE HAT!
a couple of dozen super heroes defeating billions and billions of Aliens who have somehow managed to duplicate every hero's super power and embue all of their super soldiers with them (yes this means you Bendis)
A bunch of cross over/tie ins that don't have sh..t to do with sh..t
Characters who can magically do everything, but can't really do anything
Jena Grey
The Hulk and Wolverine fighting...seriously...we don't need to see another single wolverine and hulk battle.
Super hero's who have no abilities doing things that would easily get them killed. (I don't care how trained you claim to be, no one can dodge a bullet and point blank range)
Everyone being able to beat up Galactus in some way shape or form. WTF?
" the universe is in peril and you are the only individual in existence who can stop it".
Part of me always imagines a superhero hearing that once and going, "F*&^ you, I wanna eat my cheerios", or "hmm, you know, if I let you all die from this thing, and since I'm immortal, I would never have to get out of bed to save the world ever again".
clear cut, morally absolutist characters in a comic. Where is the Training Day comic, where the rookie Greenhorn spends the day with a superhero who told a planet that Galactus was coming so that he could steal the planets wealth when no one was around.
comics where the heroes do nothing but beat the mortal s$%^ out of street criminals when it is the white-collar criminals are technically doing impersonal but wholly more damaging crimes.
resurrection of red headed Phoenix hosts. i like this less than killing a mutant just to resurrect them later, the traitor syndrome, the new power pops up for the story, the dsytopian future for mutant kind must be averted by doing the correct thing in the past thing, the Wolverine does something that shocks another X-man (usually he stabs someone, which must be very out there for people who shoot lasers from their eyes, walk through walls, fight demons literally in hell, work out in a room that projects solid holograms, ect), the new Summers or other relative reveal (Luke I am your father. No he's not I am...), and of course Wolverine quits and rides off on a motorcycle (he'll be back, in a page or two).
oh, did i mention when X-men writers make the center plot in the books... the resurrection of any red haired Phoenix host (or clone thereof) the main premise of the series, again....and again...and again...and...
Overpowering trendy characters that are linked to mega-event, and ultimately change nothing about the universe : Yeah, I look at you : Beyonder, X-MAN, Sentry....
