1. “Anything you can do I can do better”: Taskmaster is using his copying to duplicate/mirror the guy’s shot and the bullets meet midair (dumb, comic book, nice art though).
2. “Here’s what happens if I’m aiming”: Taskmaster isn’t purposefully duplicating/mirroring the guy anymore. He’s choosing the angle and trajectory of the bullet.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I didn’t read the second line as meaning that the first shot was a lucky accident or something.

That's how I saw it as well. Tasky is just mirroring where the other guy's gun is pointing, the timing of the trigger squeeze etc exactly , so that the bullets would hit each other.

Yeah, it wasn't an accident, but he didn't need to consciously do anything, just rely on his photographic reflexes (and perhaps the limited short burst of super-speed, to make sure the security guy wouldn't fire first).
Nobody can really replicate that - at least not in the same fashion.
Well, maybe Cassandra and Shiva, if we assume their body-reading abilities are basically the same thing as Tasky's photo-reflexes "condition".

Didn't Tasky's alleged daughter Finesse have the same abilities? And I was pretty sure Echo had the same copying thing....

I'm beginning to see why Sharivan was such a huge fanboy of that guy 👆
Originally posted by StiltmanFTWYeah, it hasn't been that long since I've read it. 😠 Have you checked the new colorized ongoing?
Andrea was the sharpshooter.Rick was the mad hatchetman 😉
Was thinking more about TV Rick. He shot Gareth's fingers off when he was like 30 feet away, in the middle of night, in a pitch black room AND first try. Lol
Originally posted by StiltmanFTWYeah, of course they have. Adlard started from issue 7 onwards.
Ah, so they're just beginning yes? First trade, Moore's run? They haven't got to Adlard-era of TWD yet?Thanks.
The show is still going, yes?
Yup, although I've stopped watching around season 8. This year's will be the last and it's going to have 24 or so episodes.
Why are people making this so complicated? Let me guess, because Alberto made the thread. He asked who could replicate the showing, not break down every bit of the showing. I'm guessing since people are dissecting the ft so much, they can't think of someone who can do it. Can someone make two bullets collide the way TM did? It's a simple question. Yay or nay.
