    The AC on a Budget challenge

    He could simply add the +Wisdom effect to the Amulet. There are rules for that, after all. Not really. One of the things to remember about WBL is that being good at anything is expensive. It's always more efficient to either pump something as high as it matters or dump it entirely. AC is even...

    Batman vs. Punisher

    That's a good point, but you'd have to say "schway" and "twip," and no amount of money and fancy suits is worth that.

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    So many continuity issues, most notably the age problems. I was thoroughly unimpressed. The Dora the Explorer trailer was both better put together and more amusing.

    HULK: Strength and Power

    Uh, dude? He's always demonstrated ludicrous levels of power. In Secret Wars, he held up a 150 billion ton mountain by himself. He's punched through time. He's clapped away dimensions. He's injured Galactus. Decades ago! When he was boosted by Apocalypse, he stopped the Juggernaut, you know, the...

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    Sounds horrendously dull and contrived. Not to mention disrespectful to the Batman franchise. Anyways, I'd rather see a Birds of Prey movie. Or, now that I think about it, Nightwing starting in Bludhaven would make a great movie or two. Also: OP: Nick Fury has a super power. He's immortal.

    China has done it, it has launch its drone to the Moon

    But does it know how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

    Batman vs. Punisher

    The Punisher. Batman makes a difference. See No Man's Land? How about all the Robins, plus Cain? Batman helps people. He's a hero. Batman not only doesn't kill, in the(admittedly awful) Identity Crisis, he tried to go up in a fight against two people who were ludicrously out of his league(Y'all...

    China has done it, it has launch its drone to the Moon

    Will the Foil help me save a bunch of money on my car insurance?

    Quiet, you fool! These tinfoil hats protect our brains from the Reptoids, but that doesn't stop them from finding us if you do things like that!

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    Uh, no. Irresponsibility? like, fo' realski? Are we talking about the same Batman here? Your analysis of both 3 and 4 are utterly nonsensical. Seriously, you contradicted yourself and then you make a case for traits utterly anathematic to Batman's character. And 6 is just... no. And this is...

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    Given that the DCU contains people who can move ludicrously fast, are superhumanly intelligent, can read or control minds, walk through mirrors, turn invisible and intangible, or can break Gotham itself with their fists, and more, is it really paranoia?

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    No. No it really doesn't. See, sociopathy is actually a thing. It has a definition. A definition that is not "highly focused social relations" and "calculated risk behavior." And? He's in no way mysterious. He's an incredibly straight-forward character. Also, both his personal relationship and...

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    Metallo, Zod, Darkseid, and so on are "ridiculous conceits?" And? He has superpowers. He chose to be heroic with them. Uh, no. If anything, he was pushed into his role more than Superman. He had skin in the game, so to speak. Batman's career was originally about vengeance. Superman was altruism...

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    ...So Superman risking his life to fight Metallo or Darkseid isn't meaningful? You're trying to argue that someone making the right choice, at potential risk to themselves, isn't heroic because they're really strong or have super-smelling? What's next, this guy being totally unheroic because he...

    The AC on a Budget challenge

    ...If you can't solve every single problem with a single spellclock, you're not trying. ...And you do realize there's no restriction on frequency, right? No, it really doesn't. Metagame constructs. What is this, 2007?

    What flavor of Superhero do you like?

    Uh, what? Dude, he has no superpowers. There's never been any indication of superpowers beyond what any human can do in comic books. And, anyways, he doesn't win through willpower, he wins from being smart. And lucky. And shoving the idiot ball down all his enemies' throats. ...The Hulk can...

    The AC on a Budget challenge

    ...Yes, but if you're doing that, why not just get a spellclock or two and be done with it? Well, given that it's zero against anything that's actually threatening to the party at this level, I, at least, honestly don't see too much of a difference. Also, why in the name of the Burning Hate...

    And the most overpaid actor is...

    The fact that he's getting paid at all to commit that crime against humanity that he calls "acting" is enough to tell you he's overpaid. If he got paid a dime for his entire lifetime of work, he'd still be grossly overpaid
