I'm a pansexual transguy trying to figure myself out. Expect a lot of information and pride going on. I am always happy to educate and learn.
Oh my gods Jeffrey Combs!!!! I love you!! I haven’t heard your voice in forever and then I am watching an Avengers cartoon and….. YAY!!
So I am watching avengers: earth’s mightiest heroes on netflix as per ro3ebud009’s suggestion and I see a character pull out a bow and I know it has to be Hawkeye and I start bouncing up and down saying “please be a snarky bastard, please be a…
It is all kind of interesting to me because I have never read any Marvel comics or been exposed to any Marvel shows (only seen a couple movies) but I have been obsessed with DC for a while so I keep expecting the justice league or something and it is hard to get into a different mindset…… And I probably wouldn’t be watching if Hawkeye didn’t exist, he is an ok substitute to fill my Green Arrow hole for now.
Mmk, I like cohesiveness, it is one of the reasons I love DC so much. Everbody knows each other or at least of each other and it makes it really easy to pick up comics from someone else and start reading because you already have the background and references laid in. If you ever get the change I suggest watching Justice League Unlimited (the unlimited bit is important, Green Arrow isnt’ in the first justice league cartoon)
That’s actually part of why I am glad I started by focusing on Avengers — because their lineup changes so I get introductions to a wider range of characters and, at least in the old comics, they always give you background of the character. And at least when I read the event, I’m again meeting a lot of characters, although part of that is that I’m reading other series that have issues that are a part of the event, so. But yeah. Again, I don’t know how it compares to DC at this point. Someday, once I feel settled in Marvel, I’ll jump into DC.
And I will take that advice! And remember the Unlimited part.
I just finished episode…. 4 of earth’s mightiest heroes and I had to stop myself from yelling ‘Shut up robin’ at Bucky because I am pretty sure he has the same voice actor as Robin in teen titans.
Oh pfffff. I can’t say I noticed (it’s been a few years since I’ve seen Teen Titans) but I honestly wouldn’t be surprised. And I have to admit that Bucky made me laugh and roll my eyes a bit because at least what I saw of him from the few comics I’ve read, he was not nearly so stereotypical boy sidekick-y as they made him in the cartoon.
But I’ve also mostly just seen him in older comics, so his design could have easily changed since the 60s. Oops.
It is also kind of amusing seeing a bunch of different characters and recognizing where DC and Marvel have stolen from inspired each other

See I didn’t really grow up with either universe, but just with general knowledge, so. I think the only difficulty I had with getting into Marvel was that I someone didn’t put together that everyone (Spiderman, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Avengers, etc.) existed in the same universe. I guess I thought they were in separate ones. So. That was interesting to get over, haha. But otherwise I was fine. Once I get through the Marvel stuff I want to become well acquainted with, I’ll check out some DC stuff, so I’ll be sure to ask you what you suggest for someone trying to get into the DC universe.
Other than evidently I should check out Green Arrow as the fill in for Hawkeye, haha
I didn’t really discover comics until the last few years of high school and I learned everything from a guy who was beyond obsessed with Batman, so thus, DC. I am more than used to every one being in the same universe and it has always seemed to me like the DC universe was more cohesive than the Marvel one. Sometimes Green Lantern will just pop over to Gotham to ask Bats a question but it never seemed like the same happened in Marvel stuff.
I don’t know, from what I’ve read it’s pretty cohesive. I mean, The Avengers for example has its lineup change, so a lot of heroes go in and out of it, including Peitro and Wanda who are mutants, and in more modern comics there was the Civil War event which affected everyone and had them all interacting and such. I don’t know how it’s cohesiveness beyond what I’ve read is, and I don’t know how it compares to DC. But here is definitely overlapping of the various groups.

Oh, no worries
Hawkeye is definitely a snarky bastard
I just got certified to teach archery yesterday (to add to my existing love of archery) so he was already within my area of interest…… and YAY SNARKY BASTARD!!!

Respect [pronouns] whether the person they apply to is around or not, at that. Refer to the person how they want to be referred to at all times, not just when they can hear you being a decent person.
