And look up who was responsible for it. Brian Bendis and Mark Millar. Mark Millar is one of those "realistic character"= make them a raging toxic asshole. Or just play the memes straight with zero nuance. See Hank Pym.
No he's the guy who took that and cranked it up to Hank being a serial abuser. Like Betty Ross and Janet were roommates at uni and she recalled Janet having unexplained bruises all the time.
The kinds of cynical writers who do that generally seem to have some level of Wildbow Syndrome. It really takes a spectacular writer to make that kind of setting work, and even then they have to make it just obvious enough that there's something sinister pulling strings to make everyone go so hard against basic human decency that power would corrupt them that much.
You talking about his attitude to criticism and not the rumors of ill health?
I'm talking about Wildbow's style of writing, I don't have much of an opinion on who he is outside of his writing, specifically Worm and Ward, and don't know much about him at all. I judge a writer's work by the work itself, and Worm is grimderp because he removed every character's basic morals, the kind even psychopaths and sociopaths have, making everyone capable of passing a Moral Event Horizon. So since he made Worm be a world where everyone fundamentally can become irredeemably evil, the setting would be considered grimderp in my perspective. Of course, my perspective could be skewed, others could think differently about Worm, but that's simply how I see the canon setting. 'Tis why I read so much Worm fanfic
The universal lack of moral rectitude, common sense, self control and his main characters all being born evil of his earlier works are still there.
The boys was from the guy who had Punisher shoot Wolverine in the nuts with an RPG. Who also hates superheroes. And created Preacher. Garth Ennis. 😅
And then she commandeers a Jeep.Funny thought, but since Taylor's forcefield applies to whatever she holds, when Leviathan arrives will Armsmaster tell her to hold him like a weapon so he gains the added durability, so you se Taylor waving armsmaster at leviathan who proceeds to wave his halberd at leviathan?
Juggernaut has done that in the comics both smart and dumb. None of the makeshift weapons survived the first swing. It grabs the item but doesn't protect it.Funny thought, but since Taylor's forcefield applies to whatever she holds, when Leviathan arrives will Armsmaster tell her to hold him like a weapon so he gains the added durability, so you se Taylor waving armsmaster at leviathan who proceeds to wave his halberd at leviathan?
is it because juggs did not want to protect it or consider it part of his gear? since the forcefield is explicitly stated to have covered the grabbed shadow stalker the defensive property should be possible to transfer over, kinda like siberian's invulnerability now that I think about it.
To be fair there's not a single power in Worm you can't find in Marvel or DC. I mean Panacea, Skitter, and Grue's powers are copy pasta of Elixir, Insect Queen/Spider-Queen, and Cloak's powers.
Ehhhh. Grue really isn't a copypasta of Cloak, except on a very superficial "they can both make it impenetrably dark in their vicinity" sense.
Juggernaut has to want to protect the item and have the requisite skill and knowledge to control the magic. I highly doubt she will gain the control, faith and magical skill in the two months before Leviathan arrives. I really hope Cytorrak has overwritten or deleted the Wildbow gene out of Taylor.
Shouldn't it be Simmy coming up in Feb?
Counterpoint: Cloak started with the impenetrable darkness power (which needed to eat things). Then shenanigans led him to discover he was the conduit for a dimension of darkness (and it's Dark Lord being why he needed to eat things with his darkness) thus the teleporting. Now this happened pretty fast. But like Grue he got more powah after bad stuff happened to him.
