Why Superman is More Important Now Than Ever...
Superheroes have defined popular culture and storytelling ever since Superman made his major debut in Action Comics only a year prior to the start of the second world war. Soldiers used Superman stories to live out fantasies of punching that damn supervillain in the face and foiling their evil scheme. Ever since Superman's creation, Superman has been defined as a figure that stood for the little guy, and stood up against injustices. For decades, Superman has been a incredibly powerful symbol of hope, until recently. Due to how popular media has represented Superman, people have developed a misunderstanding that Superman is a "boring" or "tired" character, that Superman is just a lifeless ...

Psychosis is Creepypasta Perfected
Просмотров 3212 года назад
Psychosis is a short story written by Matt Dymerski, which slowly shows the process of a man's paranoia and delusions slowly taking over him. As the pieces connect he realizes that he truly is the last person with his own free will. Though Psychosis seems to have one true ending, it's important to take a look at the big picture, because when you do, you will realize what truly makes this story ...

Halo Reach: Heroes Missing in Action
Просмотров 1293 года назад
Halo Reach was the last Bungie Halo game before they moved onto working Destiny. Though it's multiplayer was a mixed bag for me, the campaign is an absolutely phenomenal story that deals with not only war, but the idea of never giving up in a dire situation, themes of sacrificing yourself for the greater good, etc. In this video I try to explain why I love Halo Reach so much and how it creates ...

    Superman has always been my favorite for a lot of reasons, when I feel down not strong enough or struggling in my life I’ve always read superman comics. Started a lot after my mom died so superman to me is more he’s hope itself

    My absolute favorite Superman moment is from the comic Superman Red and Blue (#5), is Superman flying up to the earth, looking down at it and saying “I love you” and then peering over to his most heartwarming smile and then saying “I’m so proud of you”

    On the glasses disguising Superman. I bought some glasses that look like spectacles but they're actually just photochromatic sunnies. The first day wearing them I had multiple people ask me if I'm new in town, I live in a town of under 2000 and I have a big beard and one arm.

    Superman is a symbol of hope and represents the best of humanity. I really hope and cross my fingers when James Gunn's Superman comes out. That the ideals and what makes him such a great character comes back. It would be satisfying.

    Just the thought of someone not being able to tell what's happening or not happening and descending into madness is such a disturbing concept regardless of if the protagonist was right or wrong. That's what makes Psychosis such a good story

    Luther showed who He was. He had all of Superman abilities for 24 Hrs. He could have made a source of unlimited energy or fixed world hunger or found a way to repair Our Ozone. Instead what did He do he went on a rampage to prove He was better then others. He never would have let anyone have that power and risk someone challenging Him.

    I will always be a Superman fan, I latched on to him as a young boy. His ability to fly, his suit colors (Superman is why my favorite color blue.), the fact that he will always be there to save you, and have the power to back it up. I have great respect for Batman, but I choose Superman and his red cape.

It’s a good thing we have good characters like Superman to show us the best we could be especially in a world that’s so cynical and wants to see the person next to them fail.

    Whats so Funny About Trust Justice and the American Way is a great comic. Unfortunately, and I always say this, the Animated adaptation ruins it by botching the ending. The whole point of Superman's act was that it was just an act. He was not actually killing them. Just temporarily incapacitating them. And by the same metric, he was not actually acting as "the surgeon" permanently ridding them of their powers. Which is what he does in the animated version, where he says he has depowered them all permanently. Even Black, he mentions in the comic, that the heat/x ray vision trick he used to depower him was only temporary. He leaves them all for the proper authorities to decide what to do. i think the only act he actually does- is he frees Bunny, their living ship, from them, as he somehow communicates with it and finds that they were keeping it against it's will. I think it may have been the same with the creatures that make up Menagerie's powers And that always bothered me, because it really is a decent adaptation, all the way up until the end, where they totally ruin the message.

    One of my favourite Superman mini stories is from Red and Blue, it’s the “You are special, I’m proud of you, I love you” comic with it flipping between shots of John Kent and Clark from a baby all the way till John dies before flipping between shots of Superman saying those same words to the people he helps day to day. Final shot is Superman flying out into space and looking on Earth going “I love you, I’m proud of you.” It’s so beautiful
