If that portal sends Galactus to the Superfriends universe, does this mean Apache Chief gets to save the day?

It was necessary to trim it a bit to post here (since that scene takes up essentially the entire chapter), but I love how that chapter of Vinland Saga is constructed: it takes time to linger on the mood of the surrounding warriors - initially rowdy and betting on how long it'll take to send this shrimp packing (getting beat up was not Thorfinn's initial plan; he uses it as leverage after his initial request to see the king gets laughed off and they start beating on him) and getting more and more solemn as the punch count rises. There's a risk of being really self-indulgent when a character is suffering for their beliefs, but the "I have no enemies at all" line is a stunning climax to a long and well-constructed character arc and is one of my favorite badass moments.

JET JAGUAR, gently caress YEAH! I never get tired of how very, very goofy Jet Jaguar looks. Tokusatsu movies and shows are full of goofy stuff, but Jet Jaguar is a gem.

ManiacClown posted:Truth. Any badass-wannabe can give a beating. It's a true badass who's willing to take one he knows is coming, especially when it's for a good cause. EDIT: I have some thoughts about why it's an especially effective chapter. Zero_Tactility fucked around with this message at 03:02 on Jul 15, 2015 |

Requested in the Touching and Inspiring Panels thread, but probably more appropriate here given the last page. John Henry in DC: The New Frontier #3  (Full sequence in linked album)

muscles like this! posted:As a side note, I'm not sure how hard it is to find nowadays but I also recommend the author's (Makoto Yukimura) previous series Planetes. It takes place roughly 70 years into the future and follows the crew of the spaceship Toybox. Their job is to clean up the junk that people have left in orbit. Its fairly short but will also hit you right in the feels. Planetes is also extremely "hard" sci-fi as the characters have to deal with stuff like prolonged exposure to space causing health issues like low bone density and cancer. It's quite good; has a whole lot of existential dread related to living/working in space going on.
