I miss Z-Bots. Just neat little tiny action figures. I want them back with fidget functionality.

I’m team no lips. I believe that they were originally a design conceit from Battle Fever J to emulate the cowl look of his designs like Skullman. They wanted/needed to have full helmets, so they just molded the mouths to them.

I’m not sure how to properly articulate it, but Scud the Disposal Assassin and Chainsaw Man feel like reflections of each other to me in the sense they’re both about foolish, inexperienced children trying to navigate life while drawn into hellish machinations.

Controversial opinion: I think Monsteropolis is a a great name for the nondescript city in the original Mega Man games considering all of the things you face are malfunctioning utilities. Wiley didn't design the majority of that stuff, it just looks that way.

The designs of the original Mega Man enemies were surreal and cartoonish looking, like something out of a children's drawing.

Hey! Another ttrpg designer friend pointed me in your direction! I like your idea for the mission structure. I’m doing another toku-themed ttrpg with a focus on switching forms called Alter Arms

A lineup of henshin hero archetypes including a humanoid Android, a masked hero, a mutating hero, and a magical girl

I want the Clark in My Adventures with Superman to have this encounter. I think it’d be a neat arc for the younger take. I like to think this is the angriest he’s ever gotten: at the Wizard for giving Billy Batson his powers.

In a contest to see who is a better spy family, the Smiths from American Dad would have the edge because they’re more beholden to cartoon logic than the Forgers of Spy x Family. But more importantly, any given person they would need to run subterfuge on is most likely one of Roger’s personas.

In Gunn’s new DC, it’d be neat to see Doc Magnus portrayed like in 52, where his development of artificial intelligence came from his interest in alchemy and mental instability. I also think that Dave Batista could bring some vulnerability to the role.

Since Paramount+ currently has the Transformers, I see no reason we shouldn’t have a one-off episode of Lower Decks where they meet the Scavengers.

My headcanon is that Bludgeon is the cybertronian equivalent of a weeb, but he’s dangerous the same way a dude who obsesses over buying swords and believes in chaos magic is

The Tick is about a nigh unstoppable, over-excited hero in a world where everyone’s jaded to superheroics One Punch Man is about a nigh unstoppable, jaded hero in a world where everyone’s over-excited at superheroics. If they switched universes, there would be no conflict and they would *thrive*

Chainsaw Man does what great horror does and not forget that it’s okay to be funny

why did Prince Adam need to keep a secret identity in the 80s? It couldn’t have been to protect his loved ones; they’re all living weapons ready to throw hands at a moment’s notice His dad is basically King Arthur and his mom Flash Gordon. Was he just embarrassed that he needed magic to compete?
