Getting “Meta” With “Batman”

One thing I get to in this comic is the idea that “Batman” is a “metahuman”. “Metahuman” for those of you not up on “DCComics” lingo is “people with powers”. It has something to do with “Hawkman” metal or something, but it doesn’t matter. What is with “DC” and undermining the entire point of their characters? If “Batman” has powers he’s not “Batman”. If he kinda sorta has powers then there’s no point in saying he does. If “Batman” murders people like in “BVS” he’s not “Batman”. While we’re at it:

  • If “Superman” is a guy who constantly scowls he’s not “Superman”
  • If “Barry Allen” is some young isolated weirdo he’s not “Barry Allen”
  • If “Aquaman”… Actually who cares. Though “hook hand” “Aquaman” kicked ass

At least they’re not doing what “Marvel” is doing with “Secret Empire”. How long is that going to take to end? That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesdays-Thursdays. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Admiral Star has made quite a few enemies since she first appeared in the 200th comic. Those enemies seem to be coming together and wanting some payback. They include:

  • Special-Girl – They immediately got off on the wrong foot when Special-Girl tried to boss hog her as Trump’s Czar of Superpowered Bitches. This is settled when Special-Girl realized she was an associate (she’s actually her leader) of the at the time more famous Admiral A. Since “Admiral A” became a judge on “Talentless Americans Trying To Get A Crappy Vegas Show” (more on this later) they issues again. This time of who Slowku was living with. They eventually settled on “splitting custody”.
  • J-Pop – They also immediately got off on the wrong foot when J-Pop treated her poorly and talked down on her when she wanted to meet Admiral A. When J-Pop did meet Admiral A she rapped a sexual and politically charged verse for Admiral A. Admiral Star berated her for it and this became a viral sensation that landed her the job as judge on “Talentless Americans Trying To Get A Crappy Vegas Show”.
  • Admiral Fire – These two have always had a contentious relationship as Fire constantly questions her leadership. This intensified when Fire asked Star to help her get on “Talentless Americans Trying To Get A Crappy Vegas Show” to help fulfill her dreams of being a singer. Star used this as an opportunity to embarrass Fire by faking that she got on the show only to use her audition as a joke
  • Spiderous-Man – A minor issue was her and Slowku eating most of the ice cream at an ice cream party thrown by Freedom Female. Spiderous-Man then was going to have a segment on “Talentless Americans Trying To Get A Crappy Vegas Show” but Admiral Star put a stop to it because she thought it would be corny. She then this week pull a prank by having The Innovator say he wanted Spiderous-Man to join the Revenge Squad
  • (Perfect) Spiderous-Man – “Regular” Spiderous-Man is his man. He rides with him
  • Others? – We’ll see…

What’s Wrong With “Spider-Man: Homecoming”

  • The Vulture – Though Michael Keaton plays him well his whole deal doesn’t make any sense. With the tech him and his people are able to create there’s much easier (legal or illegal) ways to make money
  • Hacking – Pretty much all shows with tech people are guilty of this type of stuff, but still we’re supposed to believe some high school kid can hack into a suit created by one of the smartest people in the world. Get the hell outta here!
  • Zendaya’s Character- She’s annoying and then they reveal something about her that makes it SO much worse. It’s like “Robin” in “The Dark Knight Rises”. That still annoys the hell outta me
  • “Flash Tompson” – I give em’ credit for trying something different than the stereotypical “jock bully”, but this didn’t quite work.
  • Needs more “Iron Man” – Not really the movie’s fault, but yeah just give us “Iron Man 4”.

Again decent flick, but not particularly great. Tomorrow we swap out Admiral Star for Fiddy Fo’ as these guys discuss “handling a problem”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

I figured once Slowku and Admiral Star met they should hang out. Admiral Star now hosts this world’s “America’s Got Talent”. That show is known as “Talentless Americans Trying To Host A Crappy Vegas Show”. So it would make sense that she’s space for him to stay with her. Since he was living with Special-Girl she would have a problem with this. Of course having him go home to his actual family wasn’t even a consideration.

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesdays-Thursdays. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

“Sailor Moon” & “Goku” : Mutual Over-eaters

Pretty much this whole comic is about how “Sailor Moon” eats a lot.

sailormoon

It interesting because there’s an episode early on where she gains half a pound or something. “Sailor Moon” then tries starving herself and over-exercising to lose the weight. In the “DiC” dub they make a point to be like “you’re being ridiculous”. In the more accurate “Viz” dub people are almost like “yeah you’re gonna be a fat ass”. Overall, it seems in the “Viz” dub people are meaner to “Sailor Moon”. I actually think this make her more likeable and the show funnier overall.

Seeing as “Goku” is also known for eating I thought it was time for the titans of anime to meet. Since “Wonder Woman” is known to loves ice cream I figured an ice cream party would be the place.

Tomorrow Freedom Female and Admiral Star return along with Special-Girl. The topic of discussion is Slowku’s living arrangements. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

“All Eyez On Me” A 2pac Movie Crucified Much Like The Cover Of His Last Official Album

I’m as big a 2pac fan as any. So I went to see the biopic about him “All Eyez On Me” on Saturday. To say the least, this movie is getting A LOT of hate… I don’t get it. It’s pretty good. I’d give it a B. As a whole it is VERY accurate. There are tiny liberties taken for story reasons, but who doesn’t expect that?

pac

Jada Smith is whining about some tiny things they changed in the movie. This is weird cuz’ her character has a kinda big part and she portrayed very well.

The biggest complaint you can give the movie is that there’s too much to cover. You could make entires series about several parts of his life. More stuff happens in the last 9 months of 2pac’s life than pretty much anyone. Bottom line, the movie gets SO much SO right.

  • Almost every major thing that happened to Pac gets covered
  • A lot of famous thing you saw him wear is in the movie
  • The dude looks damn near identical to Pac rjoynesjr@gmail.com

There’s more to say, but I’ll stop here. Tomorrow Admiral Star, Freedom Female, Slowku, & Spiderous-Man talk are here. They talk about an ice part Freedom Female threw in honor of her movie’s success. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

“Sailor Moon” : The Trial Of “Tuxedo Mask”

When I first saw “Sailor Moon” many years ago I assumed “Sailor Moon” was somewhere around 16 years old. “Darian/ Momaru/ Tuxedo Mask” is definitely an adult. If his age is outright stated I never caught it. To be conservative let’s say he’s 20. This is kinda “iffy”, but okay I guess. The “DiC” dubbed didn’t hammer home that she was actually 14 and in middle school. In more accurate “Viz” dub every episode in season 1 begins with her stating she is 14. This turns “iffy” into pretty wrong.

tuxedomask

So you’d think they wouldn’t bring the age thing as all on the show, right? Nope! They go right at it. Right in the first episode where they’re actually dating. (This is also where “Rini/Chibiusa” appears… Ugh!). Then it seems like “Darian/Momaru/ Tuxedo Mask” comes to his senses and breaks it off. In the end it’s due to his future self “testing” them or something. It doesn’t make any sense though.

“Darian/Momaru/ Tuxedo Mask” is a pretty creepy guy. By day he somehow runs into the same 14 year old girl all the time. (Cough! Stalker! Cough!). When he does he acts like an absolute dick to her for no reason. Then by night he rescues her and is nice to her. That is until he discovers in a past life she was suppose to be his child bride or something. Then after “sorta dating” this same girl’s friend who’s also 14 he decides it okay to date her. All the negative stuff he always said to her goes away… Also they somehow take over the world in the future…

Wonder Woman : Can The Movie Live Up To The Hype?

So Wonder Woman is coming out on Friday. I’ll more than likely see it this weekend. So far the reviews are VERY good. As I write this is has a 97% on “Rotten Tomatoes”. My prediction is it will be pretty good, but not as good as people are saying. It seems like the other “DCEU” movies have made expectation so low it’s getting overrated. I hope I’m wrong though.

wonderwoman

On to the comic. So I made “Admiral Lightning” from the same island as “Freedom Female”. “Admiral Lightning” is my version of “Sailor Jupiter”. This explains why she’s so tall and strong. Also when I thought about Freedom Female’s origin I wanted the idea that other girls got to leave the island. The fact she wasn’t allowed to is part of why she does leave. There is a reason why she wasn’t, but I’m saying that for when I tell her origin.

That’s it for this week. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesdays-Thursdays. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
