Not every hero can reach the heights of Legacy.

I feel this episode fulfills my desire to have C&A write an issue that was poorly received. There's just something beautiful about hearing Adam go, "I hate when comics do that, it's perfect!"
Barring the name already being used, of course, I can't believe they didn't name Xander Groovitation "Moonrock".
Okay, but I'm so mad they came up with "groovitational pull", because now I wanna use it. XD
Brian Jewett, I am very disappointed you didn't say "It was Tuesday." :(

There is a DC character with the alias Moonrock https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Rick_Jensen_(New_Earth)
AAAAHHHHH!!! :-o They didn't tell us Wipeout's future! :-(
I know they did it on purpose and all, but dropping comments early in her segment about how she'd show up again as an adult but then not elaborating... :-\ So... evil.
And completely expected. X-D

Yeah, I'm really interested to know the contents of that limited series. <.< Someone put it up for voting!
This was such a fun episode! I really liked all the digs at ambitious-but-rubbish comic-making, and the poorly-timed homages...delicious. It was kind of reminiscent of the Vertex episode, in a ‘why it failed’ sort of way

The genesis of the second most meme-tastic of all Sentinels characters, shortly to be exceeded only by Soothsayer Carmichael. It’s Xander Grooviatation, Wizard of the Citadel Etcetera! You can have my apology but only if you show up to collect it in person.
I meanwhile would love to have a literal space Odyssey. I don’t think anyone’s ever made a comics character named Odysseus have they?
Everybody makes a cosmic guitar; nobody ever makes a cosmic sitar.
Another new character concept: Zeitgeist, a Kid Eternity type whose summoned minions are a decade incarnate.
The long-awaited return of the “and then they died” joke …
I could imagine that Rime and Ultra-Violent from Peyton City could be reboots of Drought and one of the cut members of Fahreheit-X. It’s weird with that name that nobody has temperature powers.
Lol, Galeforce blows but Tornado s…I’d better stop there.
I want a Fahrehheit-X deck in which the Weatherman is a 1-HP non-character target, or maybe a non-target card.
The idea space of -Man type heroes is really depleted by Legion of Super-Heroes, which does it on purpose. It makes me kinda sad that there isn’t an LSH-type deck in Sentinels. So I think I’ll go make one, on BGG as a deck and here as a bunch of SCRPG characters.
Brian the Wolf Hunt became a Lord this month! I wonder who elevated him to the nobility, and what lands he became entitled to.
Wait, so you’re telling me the Thorathians don’t hold a famous Golden Bonespur tournament where the highest ranked members of the Magic Bonespur prestige class all compete to prove themselves masters of Bonespur comic? Looking at you, Magic of Incarnum!
My headcanon on the final fate of Voss: his brother refuses to sentence him to death, but gives him an ironically worse sentence: surgical removal of his second heart, thereby severing him permanently of his powers. Bonus points if the only way to do that surgery is the same technology that does gene binding.
