That Superman woulda been far better off if he threw Luthor into the Sun after Superman I?

so what you're saying is you want red son superman. full on above the law dictator.

 

[Anubis]

I'm not saying that's what I want.....I'm just sayin'......that's what I would do.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

He'd have to investigate to be sure of all that stuff, too. Also, that would actually turn him into the Big Brother to humanity that Lex perceives him to be, which leads to concerns about humanity becoming too complacent and relying on him too much to nurture their utopian lifestyle and stuff.

 

[lixdexia]

I'm not saying that's what I want.....I'm just sayin'......that's what I would do.

yeah, you'd be a villain then.

 

[Anubis]

Guy can see through walls. Not that much investigation required. Also, it doesn't require the public to know about it. A few poppy fields get hit by a wildfire. A couple of boats sink with tons of heroin on board. A few trailers filled with kidnapped under age girls form Bulgaria are snatched off a boat and found in the middle of times square.

Maybe a crazy Dictator slips and falls in the shower. You wouldn't know wtf I'm doing.

 

[chamber-music]

Doesn't Black Lightning deal with metropolis street gangs?

I still got old Steel comics in which he dealed with trouble in the hood

Pookie and them have the plenty of heroes to cater to their needs, though. You're forgetting that like 1 in every 3 people in the DC universe is a superhero or supervillain, too. Superman's got plenty to deal with, plus he's gotta bang Lois sometime.

Clark is from rural Kanas so its probably straight missionary and lasts about 3 minutes

Has Superman IV: The Quest For Peace taught us NOTHING?

yes that Jon Cryer's is even more annoying than he is in Two And A Half Men

Awesome, so you'd be a patriarchal dictator and your own personal secret police?

 

[Anubis]

I don't wanna rule the world. Who wants that headache? I just figure if you're in the business of solving problems, how about you solve some real problems, cuz clearly the rank and file ain't doing the job.

"i don't want to rule the world, i just want the world to follow my rules."

 

[Anubis]

Yeah, cuz child prostitution is totally a grey area.

 

[lixdexia]

Yeah, cuz child prostitution is totally a grey area.

child prostitution? no. drugs? absolutely.

 

[Anubis]

Well, I wont destroy any shipments meant for Amsterdam.

 

[lixdexia]

Well, I wont destroy any shipments meant for Amsterdam.

so then you'd be a dictator who plays favorites.

 

[Franklin Richards]

He prefers the term Benevolent Monarch.

 

[lixdexia]

i like to call a spade a spade.

 

[Anubis]

It's like this. Heroin, Coke, hell, even Marijuana, are big business. Especially in America. But more importantly, the distribution is a catylist to violence. People fighting over territory they don't own, to sell stuff they shouldn't have. Eliminate the catylist, and that's one less thing for people to kill each other over. Oh, people will find something else to kill each other over, but it wont be that. Now, if the country legalizes such things, then hey. I got no problem with that. Not my business. But if it's illegal, and I'm a so called do gooder, shouldn't I, like, make sure that illegal s**t isn't being brought in to places where it's illegal? Otherwise, what's the point of being a superhero? Might as well just do whatever the hell I want and screw everybody elses problems.

exactly, who's to say it won't be something worse? nice to see you paid attention in history class when they went over prohibition.

Now, if the country legalizes such things, then hey. I got no problem with that. Not my business. But if it's illegal, and I'm a so called do gooder, shouldn't I, like, make sure that illegal s**t isn't being brought in to places where it's illegal?

yeah, that's what superman should spend his time doing, hunting bootleggers.

Otherwise, what's the point of being a superhero? Might as well just do whatever the hell I want and screw everybody elses problems.

fighting darksied and mongal. then maybe see if there's some humanitarian aide you can help out with like delivering some food or water. after that you go home, keep your fascist views to yourself, and let people live their lives.

 

[Anubis]

I think I'll stick to throwing people I don't like into space.

 

[Drz]

missing Sentry, eh Anubis?

 

[lixdexia]

I think I'll stick to throwing people I don't like into space.

oh, so you're going to be the sentry?...yeah, do whatever you like then. can't really make that guy much worse than as was no matter what you do.

 

[fifthfiend]

A few poppy fields get hit by a wildfire. A couple of boats sink with tons of heroin on board.

Or he could do something actually useful, instead of destroying one of a devastated, impoverished region's few viable cash crops.

 

[fifthfiend]

A few military interdictions are stopped by inexplicable mechanical failure. Several tonnes of opium end up in the hands of people who can process them into pain medication for the many people around the world who desperately need them.

 

[fifthfiend]

A number of banking executives who will never, ever be prosecuted for their massive acts of fraud turn up with their necks snapped.
