im straight but in the most platonic objective way ever Phoebe aka the Butcher is one of the prettiest women to ever exist I'm not even kidding the way she's drawn is so ohhjsjfnggnxsfkf she's so pretty????

I’m so tired of people saying x character wouldn’t do something bad because they have trauma and therefor know better. Like, yes, stories making people become worse despite their past experience that should make them know better for shock value suck, but that doesn’t mean that someone having trauma automatically makes them a better person. Nobody says it out right, but it’s an implicit take I’ve seen.

Comic book writers really underutilize the way heroes unintentionally put their cities up as collateral in every single negotiation. I mean, you don’t see heroes negotiating as much as I wish you did, because comic book writers are cowards and also don’t have the time to research all the layers of bureaucracy that’d involve, but Slade nuking Blüdhaven fucking slapped. At least, conceptually. In execution, everyone kind of forgot about it immediately.

Nix is being facetious. Obviously, they know what we mean. There’s a lot of reasons to go to a new mantle. You’re given it by a friend. You find yourself with inexplicable powers. You’ve got something to prove. You’re going to find yourself. You don’t want to be powerless ever again.
