You Have One Bullet...

Argonus · 08-22-2011, 04:32 AM

You have a gun that has one bullet.. that bullet can kill ANYONE in any comic book (or fictional) universe...

.. who would you use it on, and why?

My assumption is that they can NOT come back from the dead (so no Captain America/Superman resurrection bullsh!t. Dead is dead).

When I'm writing copy this late, I think up this crap.

Edit: Ugh.. I just now realize this is similar to a thread I did a couple of weeks ago, but... this time, the motivation for the death has some rationale behind it.

I'd shoot Superman. The DC Universe's heroes have voiced their paranoia about Kal-El someday possibly "taking matters into his own hands" more than once (and no, I don't just mean Batman).
There are enough heavyweight heroes.. they could pick up the slack his absence would leave.
He'd kill Batman on Day 1, though... just to get that out of the way.

You crazy man...kill Supes...nah...

One bullet huh?

I think I'd shoot Barry Allen, IMHO, there was NO POINT in him coming back, and he hasn't made any impact since his return. Wally had been the established Flash for 20 years and more, what was the point in him coming back?

I don't read as much DC these days, but the GL Corps can pick up any slack that whiny b!tch Boy Scout would leave behind.

Naw, I have nothing against Supes... it's just a discussion I've seen members of his own Universe having (both in comics and in various cartoons over the years), so it's always been an interesting thought.

I thought for sure starting these threads was something I had dreamt, since I was on a writing craze last night.

Would've been the first dream I've had about Statue Forum... which would have resulted in my walking into traffic.

I would shoot Uncle Ben oh wait......

Easy pick for me. Deadpool would end in a heartbeat. He's the most useless, moronic character ever created (if you consider any of Rob Liefield's work to be "creations") and he just plain annoys the sh!t out of me. I actively avoid anything with the word Deadpool attached to it. Totally irredeemable character and the comics world would be well off without him.

Deadpool would have to go

risingstar · 08-24-2011, 10:26 AM

The Joker. Bang.

Close second - Daredevil. Put comicdom's biggest whiner out of his misery.
Distant third and fouth -- Green Goblin and all symbiot related characters.

I totally agree with you Rich!!
I love Wally West as the Flash (except when Waid gave him kids).

Aunt May: old biatch needs to go already.
