In lieu of Free Day Friday (didn't have time this week 😭) I offer a very silly comic I drew

Premise: in Jak 3, is Damas's "death scene", it's fairly obvious that just his legs are pinned because 2003 software constraints I guess. Brain said "what if they'd brought him into Jak X without retconning the end of Jak 3 at all?" And this is what resulted

GT Blitz on pre-recorded video: "This is it, folks! The holy grail of tracks: the Arena of Death!"

Keira: "I'm sorry, Jak. I know it must be hard, being back in Spargus after losing your father."

(Her speech bubble is only partially visible because Jak is distracted when the footage switches to live)

Sig and approaching Wastelanders: "Hey! Let me see that camera for a sec."

GT Blitz: "We'll be right back folks-"

Sig (pulling camera lens towards him): "Jak, you better have a really good reason for running of to Kras now, of all times!"

Sig on the tv: "Don't run, kid. He's already there."

Keira: "Um...Jak?"

Jak: "ah...should've called, I guess...Still. What's he going to do? Call my da-"

(Door slams open)

Damas: "YOU."

Jak, Keira, and Daxter: "I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!"

"MGB-GT" (Tork), live in Toronto on July 12, 1986; footage courtesy of assneck2007.

Q: “During the early dates of the 1986 Monkees tour, you performed one of your new compositions, MGB-GT. Will this song be included in the next Monkees album? Peter Tork: “I don’t know. I would like to. We’ll see. That was then, this is now!” Q: “From what sources do you draw your songwriting inspirations?” PT: “Sometimes just a phrase or a word catches my fancy. Then I hear a musical line. I try to figure out what kinds of sounds are coming out. Basically I just go by the sound. Then I try to find words that sound like they belong there.” - Blitz!, November/December 1987 “As far as I’m concerned, a lot of what I like is not commercial. But I’m bored silly by some long, long guitar or drum solo. I don’t know where anybody would get the idea that I’d rather be a bore than to have things concise. I’m an artist, and an artist must tear his work down to the bare bones. There is no room for exces in real art. As far as I’m concerned, excess is self-indulgence. That is, the narrow, limited, individualized self. Not the greater, glorious self that we all partake of. […] I love a good hook! I don’t write them very often, but I love them. I don’t intend to be self-indulgent.” - Peter, Blitz!, May-June 1980 “MGB-GT,” of course, went on to be included on Stranger Things Have Happened; more on that next month during a special series shining a spotlight on the album.

JZA70

Big single turbine transforms the car into a powerful one, making it the fastest Supra for city riding.

GT-R, Silvia, 180SX and RX7

It is hidden behind,

Yes, there aren't that many, but this

JZA70 Supra is also a popular car as a tune base. In the case of the Supra, tunes that aim for big power are popular due to its character. This 1992 Supra is also the original

It is the highest speed specification that squeezes out so-called top power, changing from a twin turbo to a big turbine. A large intercooler installed in the front section efficiently removes piping from the turbine.

It is pinged. It is important to keep the intercooler piping as short as possible to minimize resistance, and this is done well in the case of this Supra.

I received big power again

For this reason, a metal reinforced clutch is installed.

It has a heavy steering feel, but once you get used to it, you can ride it around town without any difficulty. Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to fully open the accelerator and try out the full power, but the accelerator response was good and it wasn't difficult to handle even at low speeds. Finishing of the engine room Even just looking at it, I could feel its high level of perfection. The crossed legs of the coilover

The surroundings also feel good.

The interior has a nice steering wheel.

It has been changed to Italvolante, and the center console has Blitz's twin SBC and turbo timer built in, but it doesn't feel like a big turbine is installed. The exterior also catches the eye with the air scoop on the bonnet and the air intake for Turbo A, but the rest is just a book.

The traditional form is being utilized.

PIC CAPTIONS

●The special all-stainless muffler produces a thick exhaust note. When you step on the accelerator, you can experience the intense surge of torque that only a big turbine can provide.

●The air duct for Supra's Turbo A is installed by modifying the bumper. The cooling efficiency of the large intercooler installed inside has been increased. An air scoop is also installed on the hood.

●The original twin turbo, which emphasizes response, was changed to a large single turbo with big power, and the engine room has been seriously tuned and is beautifully finished.

[paladin-of-nerd-fandom65]

Hi I got more questions about the starburst duo!

1: what’s their favorite video games?

2: what is their favorite anime and/or cartoons?

3: Chris has a brotherly/uncle relationship with Kon-El/Conner, what’s Jake’s relationship like with Kon-el?

4: you know how in some movies and tv shows a pair of best friends would get into a fight and act like: “your not my best friend anymore!” And towards the end they get back together, has that happen before between the two of them?

5: what’s the rouge galley for the both of them?

Silly question :p

6: on a scale of 1-10, how likely are they gonna aim for the crotch against a dude villain/goon? Speaking of that what’s their reaction seeing that stuff in movies like how in the first kung fu panda movie Po got hit in the tenders?

(Cracks Fingers while grinning wildly)

Back for more I see, my friend? Very well then…

1) In no particular order, they’d like (in spite of Dick and Lois having some second thoughts in allowing them for playing M Rated titles)

Mortal Kombat

Blitz The League

Cuphead

Dark Souls

Asura’s Wrath,

and perhaps their all time favorite,

The Rockband series (out of them, The Beatles Rockband being their top one. Chris can do both Vocals and Bass while Jake does Drums and Harmonies)

2) Dragon Ball…basically all of Dragon Ball. Whether it’s The OG, Kai, GT, or the upcoming Daima, they’ll be lined up in their best shirts that are either patterned after Piccolo’s outfit or have the Z Fighters on it with their snacks by their side on the couch and engage with an all night marathon of episodes and films. Their favorite character is unanimously Son Gohan

3) Those two get along as good friends though from Jake hears about Conner courtesy of his Uncle Tim and ‘Aunite’ Cassie, whenever Conner inevitably screws up with trying to win a girlfriend off the streets with his egotistical charms and attitude, Jake gleefully takes the chance for snarking about that screw up, much to Conner’s conniption.

Aside from that though, the two make it a sworn oath on working together for making sure Chris is safe and secure from the threats even he’s too great to handle, whether externally or especially his own internal ones including tendencies of low self esteem and fears of abandonment. Conner and Jake are there for him no matter what

4) Much to even their own surprise, not exactly. Yes, there have been moments the two have gone separately from each other before reuniting in full but the thing is, they never had said to each other that they’re no longer friends. They’re never actively taking pot shots or any sort of bad mouth each other even during their lowest points in their friendship.

In fact, it’s because of their close friendship, it’s how they’re able to communicate the message of “Hey Man, I really like to hang out with you but I don’t if it’s the right time right now. Maybe a little later? Still love ya as a friend btw” with little to no words whether it’s face to face or via phone texts. They have mutual respect and understanding of those moments and take their time.

Once they have a chance though, like say in the middle of a crisis or few, they’ll rush to each other’s aid and make up for it once it’s all said and done. Even in a hypothetical Civil War between all the superheroes which has the two in opposite sides would have a similar pattern between them.

5) I once answered this in a earlier ask but I feel like it’s the perfect time for a sort of expansion to that list. Some names here would be old classics while maybe one or two would be OCs of mine for villains.

General Dru Zod (Chris’ birth father and somewhat arch nemesis due to his….very tough love approach to put it very very mildly think of their relationship akin to say Omni Man and Invincible)

Mr Victor Zsasz (Jake’s own Gotham based arch enemy due to a particular case involving street orphans and urchins forcibly fighting a gladiator style tournament to the death and Jake facing Zsasz face to face at the climax of said case, a duel involving a rather brutal beat down since Jake’s powers were shut down briefly that includes a sharp blade and that old damned crowbar)

The Gordanians (Since Jake’s mother is Kory aka Starfire, it should be pretty self explanatory and easy to understand his dislike for these particular aliens)

Deathstroke the Terminator (Similar enough reason to the Gordanians only in this case it’s via what he done to Dick throughout the years as a Titan, whether it includes the forced apprenticeship or other misdeeds)

The Court of Owls (not only due to both Mar’i and Jake being offsprings of the ‘Gray Son’ but they also can sense Chris somehow being a unique sort that distinguishes him from the other Kryptonians (I.e. his unique physiology courtesy of his birth in the Phantom Zone and being a host for the Nightwing entity) that they can claim for themselves, an evolutionary step in their arsenal of Talons)

Cinderblock (The big dumb concrete lug frequently challenges Chris and Jake for a challenge in Bludhaven’s streets which they’re all too happy to take. He’s fun for them to take on)

Xa Du, The Phantom King (As the main ruler of the Phantom Zone himself, he naturally sees Chris as an obstacle to his own path of universal domination)

(And time for some OCs I have in mind)

NKVDemon (an ex-Spetznaz and apprentice of the KGBeast though his goals and methods are far more grand and widespread in comparison than his mercenary teacher’s. While not a cyborg like KGBeast or enhanced like Deathstroke, he’s dangerously intelligent, at peak human condition and utterly ruthless to the core)

Lion Master (a constantly bullied street orphan who ran to join a traveling circus where became the apprentice of an old kindly lion tamer, it all truly went downhill during one performance at Ivy Town when due to a simple mistake on his part, the kid ended up causing the old tamer’s unfortunate demise in front of the crowds, leading to him being kicked out of the circus he called home and the lions ordered in being out down. Not willing to see the felines he can call his friends meet their ends, the orphan frees the four big cats. Now with nothing left to lose and returning to the streets once more, the old tanner’s apprentice turns to a life of petty crime with his four kings of the jungle by his side and at his beckon command; competing his transformation into the Lion Master. Has a beef yet also somewhat a bond with Skybird due to their own connections to the circus yet Skybird and Nightwing ‘Phantom’ always foil his crimes)

La Llorona (‘The Weeping Woman’ herself; the Duo once encountered her during a vacation their families were taking in Mexico. A one time antagonist who they actually were able to communicate with in order to help her find peace with them but certainly a memorable one)

The monkeys and undead guardians of El Dorado (Ling story incredibly short, Time Travel shenanigans had Chris and Jake land in the a time lopping ancient city of gold with these monkeys and zombified warriors attacking the intruders almost every step of their way within their adventure to escape)

Vla-Bol (A Kryptonian juvenile delinquent who led an equivalent of a street gang doing all sorts of petty crimes and ruled their city streets/Hallways with an iron fist. At first, The Kryptonian High Coucil had Vla drafted into basically boot camp under the command of an ancestor of a certain Kryptonian General, Grand Admiral Gro-Zod. Unfortunately for Vla, despite or maybe because of taking the Admiral’s teachings and philosophy to heart, he went on committing plenty of bad conduct and failed to hold back his fury during war time as a Private. For this misconduct, Vla-Bol was banished to the Phantom Zone at the age of only 14 years, swearing vengeance on the House of Zod for this indignity. It just centuries later and once he finally is able to leave the Zone and find planet Earth, there happens on being a descendent of the old Admiral, Lor Zod aka Chris. Vla-Bol is an utter show off and Grade A jerk who flaunts his powers without any hesitation or second thought. Powers that are surprisingly deviant from standard Kryptonian ones as while yes he can fly, lift extremely heavy objects and exhibit super human speeds, for one he relies on Moonlight to fuel them. Also, in place of heat vision and x ray vision, Vla-Bol instead can make copies of himself composed of shadows and summon dark energy from the Zone itself, capable of leveling entire city blocks at the palm of his hands)

(*Phew* I think that should do it lol)

6) Chris: 3, Clark taught him well enough to not resort to dirty tricks in fighting his opponents

Jake: 10, Being raised in Bludhaven by Nightwing and having Red Hood as an Uncle….it’s pretty obvious he would fight dirty like they can lol

As for their reactions, both of them would giggling at those moments.

Okey Dokey, I’m pretty sure that’s a plenty for my answers, Anon

If there’s any suggestions to add or constructive criticisms, please Reblog/Reply. It’ll be very appreciated ;-)

Highest Individual Scores in IPL 2025 Matches

1. Yashasvi Jaiswal – 124 (RR)*

Yashasvi Jaiswal has been in sensational form this season, and his unbeaten 124 stands out as one of the best knocks of the tournament. Opening the innings for Rajasthan Royals, he took on the opposition bowlers right from the first over. The most impressive aspect of this innings was his composure — he rotated the strike efficiently and capitalized on loose deliveries, hitting clean boundaries with ease. Jaiswal’s ton not only helped his team post a huge total but also reinforced his place among the top Indian batters in the league.

2. Heinrich Klaasen – 115 (SRH)

Known for his power-hitting in the middle overs, Heinrich Klaasen unleashed a storm during Sunrisers Hyderabad’s home match earlier this season. Walking in after an early collapse, he anchored the innings before shifting gears effortlessly. His 115-run knock was laced with monster sixes, elegant boundaries, and calculated aggression. Klaasen’s ability to clear the ropes against both pace and spin made this innings one of the most complete performances of IPL 2025.

3. Ruturaj Gaikwad – 110 (CSK)

The Chennai Super Kings captain stepped up in style during a crucial encounter. Ruturaj Gaikwad’s 110 was a masterclass in timing and placement. Unlike the typical high-strike rate T20 innings, this knock had a calming influence — he paced his innings to perfection, ensuring his team stayed in the game throughout. What made it even more special was that it came under pressure, where others were struggling to find rhythm.

4. Jos Buttler – 107 (RR)

Jos Buttler rarely disappoints in the IPL, and 2025 has been no different. His 107-run blitz was a reminder of his world-class ability. Opening the innings, Buttler was ruthless on anything short or wide. His range of shots — from reverse sweeps to straight drives — kept the bowlers guessing. This knock not only helped Rajasthan Royals dominate the match but also gave the crowd a thrilling display of power and precision.

5. Shubman Gill – 105 (GT)*

Leading Gujarat Titans with maturity and confidence, Shubman Gill’s 105* was a classy innings full of elegance. He played the role of an anchor, keeping the innings steady before accelerating in the final overs. Gill’s strokeplay was effortless, often finding gaps with minimal risk. His understanding of the tempo of the innings stood out, showing how well he’s grown into the role of a consistent run-getter for his franchise.

What Makes These Innings Special?

The beauty of these high scores lies not just in the numbers, but in the context they came in. Most of these innings were match-defining — built under pressure, delivered with skill, and crafted with situational awareness. Whether it was a fiery counterattack or a well-paced anchor innings, each knock showcased a different flavor of T20 batting.

Moreover, IPL 2025 has been about intelligent cricket. Batters are no longer just going for blind slogging. They’re reading conditions, targeting specific bowlers, and using matchups wisely — a true evolution of the T20 mindset.

Conclusion

The 2025 IPL season has already treated fans to some jaw-dropping individual scores, and there’s surely more to come. With the league now at its halfway point, more fireworks are expected as players eye the Orange Cap and teams push for playoff spots. Whether it’s the young guns or the seasoned pros, one thing is clear — the art of big scoring is alive and thriving in IPL 2025.

Top 3 Best Batters in IPL 2025

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 has already lived up to its reputation of delivering entertainment, drama, and world-class cricket. But among all the dazzling performances, the biggest headlines are often grabbed by the batters – the ones who light up the stadiums with massive sixes, stylish boundaries, and match-winning knocks.

Why Batters Dominate the Spotlight in IPL

T20 cricket is a batter's paradise – small boundaries, powerplays, and flat pitches often make life easier for the men with the willow. However, thriving consistently in a high-pressure tournament like the IPL requires more than just big hitting. Technique, temperament, and adaptability are what set the top batters apart.

The best batters in IPL 2025 have not only smashed runs but also led their teams from the front, often in crunch situations.

1. Virat Kohli (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) – The Run Machine Returns

Runs in IPL 2025 (so far): 475+

Average: 59+

Strike Rate: 145+

50s/100s: 5/1

It’s hard to talk about IPL batting excellence without starting with Virat Kohli. After a relatively quiet 2024 season, Kohli has roared back to form in IPL 2025 with vintage dominance. Opening the innings for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), Kohli has anchored several innings, combined aggression with elegance, and reminded fans why he’s one of the all-time greats.

His century against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede was a masterclass in controlled aggression, while his 72* in a tough chase against Lucknow showcased his nerves of steel.

What sets Kohli apart this season is his adaptability. He’s taking calculated risks, rotating strike well, and building partnerships – exactly what a senior pro should do. RCB may still be struggling on the points table, but Kohli’s batting is pure gold.

2. Ruturaj Gaikwad (Chennai Super Kings) – The Calm Conqueror

Runs in IPL 2025: 460+

Average: 52+

Strike Rate: 138+

Captaincy Impact: Strong leadership + consistent scoring

Ruturaj Gaikwad is no longer just a rising star – he’s a proven IPL performer, and in IPL 2025, he’s also grown into the role of CSK captain after MS Dhoni’s surprise mid-season step-down. Leading from the front, Gaikwad has shown maturity beyond his years both with the bat and in his decision-making.

Whether it’s setting a platform in the powerplay or stabilizing the innings after early wickets, Gaikwad has done it all. His sublime stroke play, composed demeanor, and effortless timing make watching him a treat. His 89* against Gujarat Titans was one of the most technically beautiful innings of the season.

Under his leadership, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are sitting comfortably in the top half of the table, and a big reason for that is Gaikwad’s consistency.

3. Travis Head (Sunrisers Hyderabad) – The Explosive Game-Changer

Runs in IPL 2025: 440+

Strike Rate: 180+

50s: 4

Highest Score: 103 off 47 balls

Travis Head has been an absolute revelation for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) this season. Known for his aggressive intent from ball one, Head has provided some of the most explosive starts in IPL 2025. Whether it’s a powerplay blitz or a counterattack in the middle overs, Head has the rare ability to dismantle any bowling attack.

His knock of 103 (47 balls) against Rajasthan Royals was pure carnage – hitting both pace and spin to all corners of the ground. What makes Head so dangerous is his fearlessness and ability to go big regardless of the match situation.

With Head firing at the top and building crucial partnerships with the likes of Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen, SRH is looking like a serious title contender.

Honourable Mentions – Other Batters Making Waves

While the top 3 are a class apart, here are a few other names who have impressed in IPL 2025:

Sanju Samson (Rajasthan Royals) – Leading from the front with flair and fire.

Shubman Gill (Gujarat Titans) – Consistent but needs a few more big knocks.

KL Rahul (Lucknow Super Giants) – Reliable but slightly slow at times.

David Warner (Delhi Capitals) – Showing sparks but struggling with consistency.

Ishan Kishan (Mumbai Indians) – Dangerous when in form, but still looking for rhythm.

What Makes These Batters Stand Out?

The Top 3 Best Batters in IPL 2025 aren’t just leading the run charts – they’re winning matches, handling pressure, and playing with style and substance. Each brings something unique:

Kohli: Classic technique with new-age aggression

IPL 2024: MS Dhoni or Sameer Rizvi, who should be CSK’s finisher? Sidhu makes his pick

Former India cricketer turned commentator Navjot Singh Sidhu understood that CSK need to give opportunities to Sameer Rizvi and back him as the finisher for the franchise. MS Dhoni turned back the clock with his blazing knock of 37 runs from 16 deliveries against Delhi on March 30, Sunday. However, touted as one of the best finishers, the former CSK captain couldn’t guide his team to a win as CSK suffered their first loss of IPL 2024 against DC by 20 runs.

Answering to a question by Indiatoday.in on Star Sports Press Show, Sidhu said that a talent is nothing without opportunity. He felt the team needed to give that confidence to Rizvi, on whom the franchise shelled out a Rs 8.40 crore in the IPL 2024 auction.

“Talent is nothing without opportunity. You have to give youngsters opportunity. One is giving opportunity and the other thing is the player accepting the challenge. You have got to give Rizvi that confidence,” Sidhu said.

He heaped praise on Dhoni for his ability to bring the best out of the players and instilling that faith to make full use of their abilities.

“The same player isn’t that strong in the other team, but when he comes to Dhoni, he becomes a completely different player, how? Because a good leader is the one who walks behind him and ignites faith,” Sidhu added.

Rizvi announced his arrival in the biggest cricketing extravaganza with a massive six off Rashid Khan’s delivery during the match against GT at Chepauk. The uncapped Indian player smashed a quick-fire 14 from 6 balls to make a crucial contribution to the team’s total.

However, the youngster couldn’t replicate his performance in the match against DC as he was dismissed for a golden duck during CSK’s stiff chase of 192 runs. Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja shared an unbeaten stand of 51 runs from 23 deliveries, but their late blitz wasn’t enough to help the team cross the finishing line. Sidhu acknowledged that Dhoni has got nothing to prove and will look to unlock the next gen's potential.

"A drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of vinegar. So, therefore, fitting people in their rightful place is what is most important. Dhoni is an asset, when he bats and finishes. Jadeja and Dhoni, one plus one is 11. They are multiplying their strength. Dhoni has nothing to prove. The biggest strength of a leader is that he builds future leaders. He will actually unlock potential for the youngsters."

Sidhu talked about the importance of finishers in the sport and how their contributions in the death overs could prove to be a make or break for the team’s result.

“The bigger challenge is not batting at No. 3 or No. 4, the bigger challenge is when you bat for the last six overs, the last 7 overs. That is the time when you are really tested, why? That’s when you are going to be scoring 1 ball, 3 runs. 1 ball, 2 and a half. This skill is in a very few people. I am telling you, it's not easy to be a finisher. You are not getting accolades, but it’s the quality of those runs, which actually helps the team win or lose,” Sidhu said.

CSK will look to bounce back as they face Hyderabad in their next match of the season on April 5, Friday.
