Not this time, no.

My cdtm-translator got broken.

Oh well, guess it fell flat then. Explaining jokes just ruins them.

So you know Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star?

He pinpoint targeted a pressure point once by throwing a piece of hair.

Hair as a projectile weapon would make a pretty good anti bullet timer skill, because not too many people could notice one thin hair to even try and evade/block them.

Like Walter Dornez in Hellsing.

Pretty much.

Or Yura in Inuyasha.

Is this the worst plot twist ever?

Spoiler:
I'm reading a manga called Riki-Oh, by the writer of Fist of the North Star. It starts off as essentially Kenshiro in prison, exploding anyone he fights in disgusting fashion, disembowling people and strangling them with their own intestines, getting strangled by the intestines of other people he disemboweled... You get the idea. Eventually he breaks out of prison looking for his long lost brother. A central part of this plot, is a tattoo on Riki-Oh's right hand as the Star of David, and his brother with a Nazi swastica.

It turns out Riki-Oh and his brother's mother was a Jew captured by Nazi's. She was raped and gave birth in prison, and then was framed and hung.

So Riki-Oh meets his brother, who became totally deranged, kills him in a big fight, and his quest becomes finding out who his father is, and getting revenge on an underling who wronged his mother and is somehow alive and young 50 years later.

Which he does, to both plot points. He finds the underling, who is young by constantly replacing body parts from clones, and he finds his father.

And here's where the plot goes off the rails. His father... is a test tube baby... from the future... with an immortal body to go back in time and become past earths "God", rape the Jewish woman to give birth to twins with the Star of David and swastika tattoos, who are supposed to be the "children of destruction" to wipe out all life on Earth so they can live as immortal spirits forever.

This is the twist.

I can only imagine how freaking deranged the writer had to be to come up with this stuff. Drugs alone doesn't explain it, this must be a VERY sick mind at work.

That stun pod could one shot a lot of people

watch the movie, you would love it

I can't believe the original video of the pec bounce fight was deleted,smh

Any idea who this guy trying to blast Wolverine is?

It's from Infinity Crusade issue 5.

Shaman. And it was a ploy by him so he could astral project and sneak around on the Goddess

That scene ties into Alpha Flight #127 which goes into why Shaman let Wolverine “win”

😂

I know this forum too well; knew you would respond and tell me it was Shaman.

What the hell is that costume? Disguise, error or he really used to wear black costume?

Yeah it was garbage. That was his legit costume for a brief time

Funny enough, the good guy would have lost the contest if they left him alone, because he was not the most ripped, or well formed.

Plenty of KMC respect threads got copied & pasted, so no worries.

Hell, even reddit (they are enjoying their five minutes these days) use big chunks of our threads.

Any good pics of that Shaman costume, Mungi?

I tried to google, but I didn't like the results, as they seem different:

It was inevitable. No free image hosting site lasts forever.

We should've backed everything up, but everyone was too lazy for that.

Thanks 👆

Looks like they messed up the coloring in the main Crusade series, as the "V" symbol is supposed to be red as Shaman's face and the one on his back, right?

Stupid design, good thing it didn't last.
