"Back."

The saying goes, "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago; the second-best time is now," but for the TVA they can do both!

Probably even longer than that actually. Isn’t global warming fun kids? 🤦‍♂️

I definitely want to see Kurt throw down with Death’s Head, but he’s probably going to have to be leveled up, have accessories and get REALLY creative given how capable DH is, not to mention the home field advantage. Should be fun.

Ok, so maybe it won’t be so easy. How would that even work though? Time works differently in hell, no matter what version you’re using. Maybe it’ll be some sort of brick joke and he’ll end up there after this whole thing ends?

As someone who always played as Kurt in the arcade game, I can vouch that he kicks robot ass. Still, sounds like Sat’s not in too much trouble so she might get out before Kurt gets there anyway.

I don't think I ever had an opinion on Death's Head prior to this, having read basically zero comics starring him, but now I really want to see Kurt teleport a Buick into DH's chest cavity. Or maybe a Cybertruck, put one of those gas station paper towel dispenser, "Starfox on the Super NES graphics" looking things to some actual use.

Much as I love Death's Head, he has been a bit of a dick lately, 'cause he's gots to get paid, son. For why, I've never been able to determine: what does he need the money for? I don't think he drinks or gambles enough to blow through it all, he can't spend that much on capes,...wait, he needs three franks a month to keep Jeff on life-support so he doesn't explode! No, wait, that was Scud the Disposable Assassin.

Not sure if you have a Scud figure or not, but I’d love to see him & DH interact here if possible

Hmm, I always thought they looked like Deloreans. That’s the whole gag- you get to be Marty McFly, and who doesn’t want that?

H said...

I’ve been reading Scud lately- it’s sorta all over the place, both in a good way and a not so good way. I like that they do a dream-casting for the characters, even if I don’t agree with a lot of the choices (I think I see it more like an animated series and they see it as a live-action movie).

H said...

Also, I think they answered the whole ‘why does DH get paid and what does he do with it’ thing somewhere. It was something fairly mundane, like ‘might as well, while he’s freelance peacekeeping’ and using the money to replace and upgrade parts and weapons.

Yeah it is actually, and basically everything falls apart by the Cosa Nostra storyline. But before that it’s pretty fun & relatively straightforward.
