The Promotion

For the first time in the five years, the Burnmax Deadly Acid Factory whirred to life. After OSHA found out that none of the catwalks over the coverless vats of acid had guard rails, the factory had been shut down so fast they never even drained the tanks, which still burbled threateningly. Murderize wasn't sure if it was actually still dangerous. It made sense to him that Deadly Acid left out in the open would turn bad, like milk, but if the new boss wanted the mayor's daughter slowly lowered into a vat of acid, he wasn't going to say no to a paycheck. Times had been tough for henchmen ever since the new crew of masks hit town. His old crew, Mutilate and Comeuppance, were stuck in the Asylum now, and he was lucky to get a C-list criminal like Doctor Funkenstein to work for, even if the pay was worse and the bell-bottoms looked dumb and the free-love orgies had to be cancelled because there weren't any girls. Still beat working for Catboy.

The mayor's daughter, Barbara Whatsherface, was doing a good job of being tied up and screaming, though. Sometimes you'd kidnap a woman and she'd just cry or something and sticking her in a deathtrap got awkward. Non-consensual actors rarely stuck to their roles, not that Muderize cared, but the bosses always got mad when it happened. God forbid a big dramatic crime have victims who didn't resist being murdered in a fun way. "MMMMM! MMMMM!" screamed the mayor's daughter through her gag. It was real convincing, which was one of the advantages of using real victims and actually trying to kill them.

Doctor Funkenstein flipped the switch. "It's Alive! Alive! But soon, my dear, you won't be!" he said, which was a bit weak. He was clearly more committed to the "Funk" than the "enstein" of his gimmick. A tall lanky man in a purple suit and labcoat with a large disco ball for a head, Funkenstein was kind of a terrible boss to work with. Not deadly enough to be thrilling, not funny enough to be a good time, not quite thematically cohesive enough to get the good headlines. He'd been working on this rebrand for weeks, and hoped it would get him the success so many had expected of him two years ago. Murderize was unconvinced, but he wasn't paid to think. The mayor's daughter was halfway down. Murderize flicked his cigarette into an acid vat and unbuttoned his shirt. If the good guys wanted to save dear sweet Brenda or whatever, they were running out of time. Sometimes you actually got away with crimes and then you got to go home early.

CRASH!

Glass rained down from the broken skylight as the Wonder Five dropped in to save the day. Damn it.

Wonder Red landed on the catwalk before him. The founder and the leader of the group, he was still a dork in his red spandex onesie and motorcycle helmet. Wonder Red had hoped the other Wondernauts would change their names to be Wonder Blue and the like, but none of them did, and he just looked like a cosplayer who wandered into an actual superteam by mistake.

"Disco is dead, Doctor Funkenstein", said Wonder Red, "And so are your plans for world domination!"

"You're the one who's dead, Dunder Red", shouted Doctor Funkenstein, "For you've walked straight into my Saturday Night Deathtrap!". He leaned back, and lasers spewed in all directions from his disco ball head.

Muderize let the leaders have their fun. With hero teams as with villains, the henchmen were the ones doing the real work. Already Snakes flew into the mayors daughter, cutting the ropes with his teeth and he carried her off to safety. When Already Snakes flew off with your girl, you were never getting her back, so Muderize fired his Disco Gun (which was just a glock with glitter on it) at Animal Cracker, who cracked some birds into existence in the path of the bullets.

The birds disappeared in a puff of smoke, which hid Animal Cracker, but Murderize had fought these guys enough times to know AC liked to land an elephant on people, and ran out of the way. The elephant slammed into the ground, broke its legs, and poofed out of existence. AC dropped gracefully to the ground, and threw up a Gorilla Shield fast enough to block the second and third bullets Murderize fired, but not the first one, which grazed his arm. As the gorilla poofed, AC jumped behind a one of the acid vats. Shooting a giant vat of acid was a rookie move, so Murderize took cover himself. The two women members of the Wonder Five were busy with the other henches. Pink Moon had managed to pick out the rookies and was doing the "Oh no, I'm a poor defenseless girl what will I do" act, which every henchman fell for the first time. The smarter henches were left to Sorcera.

Murderize suddenly realized that a whole entire hero was dedicated to fighting just him. He tried not to get emotional about it, but if the Wonder Five had elevated him in their minds from henchman to miniboss, that could open up all kinds of career opportunities for him, especially having scored a wound.

Of course, scoring a kill, even against Animal Cracker, would do even more. He shook himself a little to get his head back in the game. AC had been hiding behind that vat for too long. He was up to something.

He barely had time to finish thinking before a murder of crows shot out from both sides of the barrel. He knew that Animal Cracker's animals got weaker the more of them he summoned, and that just the sound of a gunshot would be enough to dispel them. This was a distraction, AC wanted him to fire wildly at the birds from a distance. He was too smart for that. He waited for the birds to get close before firing, and made sure to aim his gun away from the acid tank while keeping an eye on it to make sure Animal Cracker didn't bail. Bang. One shot, and all the birds poofed into a big cloud.

A big cloud directly on top of him, obscuring his vision. Shit. He coughed, and tried to see which way the inevitable charging rhino would come from so he could dodge it. He didn't see it. He felt it, though. Hurt just as bad as the last time he got Rhino'd. He flew into a piece of machinery, and collapsed to the ground in pain. He blindly groped for his gun, but the only thing he felt was Animal Cracker slapping the cuffs on.

"I tagged you, though", said Murderize, as AC finished handcuffing him. AC said nothing, but there was no denying the nasty gash on his shoulder. "Gotta report that".

Animal Cracker sighed. "Yeah, yeah". Above them, the music stopped. Seemed like Doctor Funkenstein's Dancing Queen's Gambit had failed. He's barely lasted longer in a fight than Murderize himself did, even if it was against the star.

"You gotta tell 'em. Come on! You gotta tell 'em Murderize tagged you!"

"I'm not your PR guy, man"

"Come on, make me look cool and it'll make you look cooler for beating me. We both win!"

"You know how you could really win? By giving up a life of crime"

"Bro. C'mon. Bro".

There was a long pause. Socera broke it, swooping down with six experienced henchmen tied up behind her in magical ropes. Pink Moon was with her, carrying eight rookies in a net. "Yo, AC. You only got one?", Sorcera said, smirking.

Animal Cracker looked at Murderize for a moment, then at Pink Moon, before turning to Sorcera. "This isn't just a henchman, Sorcera. This is Murderize. He's.....he's a mini-boss". He pointed at the gash in his arm "Tagged me and everything"

Murderize looked down at the ground, trying not to let Sorcera see him smile

FOURTEEN PEOPLE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW BETTER

I was tagged by @lord-petyr, thank you! :D

ONE / name/alias: Kate

TWO / birthday: August 28th

THREE / zodiac sign: Virgo (isn’t that a bit useless since you already have my birthday?)

FOUR / height: I don’t know exactly but around 166 cm (5′4″)

FIVE / hobbies: I’m still not sure whether I count music as my hobby since I study it and it currently also makes me money and i have a very complicated relationship with it which I will not go into but... I guess, that includes concerts and listening to music... then watching TV shows and films, reading, writing, sometimes I draw stuff 

SIX / favorite colors: black, blue, silver, dark red

SEVEN / favorite books:  I don’t wanna repeat myself, some of my old favorite non-fiction: The Art of Asking by Amanda Palmer and anything written by Oliver Sacks 

EIGHT / last song I listened to: something terribly cheesy and summer-y from the radio at work (I have about 5 of those stuck in my head rn and what can I say, I don’t love it)

NINE / last film I watched: Baby Driver (worst film I’ve seen in YEARS, no kidding, one week ago I was home sick and watched it on Netflix for Jon Hamm in leather. I did enjoy that, tbh.)

TEN / inspiration for muse: walking, generally getting to any destination

ELEVEN / dream job: I’m interested in copyright law, intellectual property etc., so anything where I could use that and do something meaningful. I hate this question so much.

TWELVE / meaning behind your url: :))) it’s a play on the “I’m here to rescue people and generally establish happiness all over the place. I’m the Doctor, Doctor Funkenstein” line in Doctor Who S9E7(?). I needed a new URL and Twelve is the fictional character I (probably still) relate to the most. Also I like the general trashy rockstar/rebel vibe. And since it’s my nickname on many other sites as well now, I can’t really change it. 

THIRTEEN / top 3 ships:  I’m preparing myself for whatever season 4 of The Good Place is gonna be for Michael x Eleanor. Other than that, say... Marvey from Suits and Petyr x Sansa. 

FOURTEEN / lipstick or chapstick: Nothing, preferably

Work: I do that sometimes.

Fiction: Yes, please.

you keep talking about rose with scorn, about future regenerations having outdone her completely & acting like they are somehow disgusted by the romance with her. but what are you basing your opinion on? in those books or comics that no one really cares about? which weren’t even written by showrunners?! moffat NEVER made twelve disrespect rose’s memory. that comic of him picking on ten was written by a bloke who doesn't even like rose, which indicates that the stories reflect more on the writers' opinions than the character. and while in the comics thirteen is somehow unbothered by rose’s presence, in the podcast narrated by jodie, she mentions rose in a fond, wistful voice. bc, guess what, the author is doctor/rose stan and said that she believes that the doctor loves rose in ALL incarnations and that jodie understood at the same moment what a mention of rose meant. ¯\_(ツ)_/ ¯ matt and jodie also talked about working with billie piper, about bringing rose back. and do you really believe rtd will write his doctors making light of the romance with rose??? he clearly still has a lot of affection for the character and it's no wonder he decided to name donna's daughter after her (when it would have been easier to name her 'martha' seeing as donna properly met her). so… yeah keep talking shit about rose and even tenrose all you want, it won't change that rose was immensely loved by the doctor, by TEN. ten loved rose so intensely he gave himself to her. david said that rose defined his doctor, and i say she defined the entire rtd1 era. and you can accept that or stay mad idrc

"And you can accept that or stay mad, i dont really care"

no lemme be serious hold on.

"by TEN"

yo yall see this? just completely ignore mr. fuck the monarchy, queen killer, the lovely, the irreplaceable the impeccable ninth doctor himself christopher eccleston?? oh no i know why. its because nine flirted with black girl princess of the forest of cheem herself miss jabe? but you dont really care.

im sorryyy im trying real hard but you are fumbling your own argument.

what makes you think rtd2 era is gonna be rose centric? if it was rose centric - we wouldnt need ruby sunday. but because shes yt and has blonde hair - of course YOU would think that. i mean with 14 its gonna be rose templenoble centric but you dont care. it would be easy to name ANOTHER BLACK CHARACTER WITH THE ONLY OTHER BLACK COMPANION NAME THAT DONNA KNEW?? other than what?? LANCELOT?? MINNIE?? YOU KNOW IN REFERENCE FOR LANCE HER NOW DEAD EX OR MICKEY??? but you dont really care.

anon. i can't stop laughing. you wrote all of that just to out yourself as a racist doctor who fan. you had very key things to strengthen your argument and prove your case and you fumbled. but you dont really care.

"jodie understood what a rose mention meant" and she understood what a river mention meant as well and YET jack mentions rose but 13 mentions river. she dont mention any of her previous companions vocally. she actively avoids it. tegan even noticed that. now rtd has a lot of affection for the rose character because it revived the show he used to watch as a child. but you dont really care.

"loved her so intensely he gave herself to her" - yeah he gave his human alias to her now 12 has to go by doctor funkenstein and doctor disco and doctor caretaker and 13 got to go by jane smith in honor of sarah jane smith big oof - like damn that sucks. but you dont really care.

But also, the 12 whole entire era was built off of donna. like that was clear. cut. dry. print. but you dont really care.

"jodie believes that the doctor loves rose in ALL incarnations in a podcast she narrates" and yet, we see from big finish productions that the doctor loves river in all his incarnations too. but you dont really care.

yo that "comic picking on ten was written by someone that dont even like rose" anon now you know thats the ONLY ONES WE GOT CORRECT BILLIE PIPER EYE COLOR ON INSTEAD OF BLUE AND GREEN INSTEAD OF HER LOVELY BROWN EYES AND ROSE WASNT EVEN IN IT. IT WAS WITH TWO COMPANIONS OF COLOR. THE ONLY BILLIE WE GOT WAS THE MOMENT. AND THATS IT! AND THEN WE GOT THE NOVELLIZATION BY STEPHEN MOFFAT THAT EXPANDS THE MOMENT AS HER OWN CHARACTER AND NOT ANOTHER ROSE. LIKE HUH??? but you dont really care.

"which weren't even written by showrunners" girl neither was human nature/family of blood the doctor's wife, vincent and the doctor, and the lodger THE LODGER IS A MICKEY X TEN COMIC BEFORE IT BECAME AN EPISODE WHA--PFFT. but you dont really care.

anyway seems to me you dont really care about ten or rose or tenrose, you just using that as an excuse to be antiblack and silence anyone that dare point that out. just like series 3 does to martha. hm. interesting.

[bardqueenofgallifrey]

would you ever put in a reference to one of twelve's supposed nicknames into LoG? (like basil or doctor disco or doctor funkenstein)

I mean, yeah, I feel like I’m not against the use of Basil as a name for Twelve in AUs, tbh, and it’s not hard to work things like that in, I just haven’t worked out how I wanna do it yet

[unknown-companion-poems]

There’s “Doctor Disco” and “The Architect”;

There’s “Basil” and there’s “Doctor Funkenstein”,

“Sir Doctor” too.  Alas, I do suspect

That these names will be gone come end of line...

[patrickat]

Friendly reminder that Funkenstein was the name of the doctor who created him, not the monster on the dance floor.

[theophenes]

Mike’s dumb shadowrun OC ideas, summed up in terrible one-liners

“Runner” has some negative connotatins. I prefer the term “Freelance luchadora.”

“Necromancy is just archaeology with an interest in primary sources.”

“That’s Doctor Funkenstein to you. I have an MD.”

“Yes, the Heelies are smartlinked into the body armor.”

“The yo-yo was originally designed as a weapon. The flamethrowers, however, are totally my idea.”

“Rule 1 is that everyone is expendable. Rule 2 is that goes double for me, if it’s funny enough.”

“As a rule, I like to ask myself ‘What Would Queen Elizabeth II do?’”

“Any Troll can be large and intimidating. But me? I can be large, intimidating, and know seventeen recipes for fruit preserves.“

“I was damn good Butler for him. And yes, I’m aware of the irony, but his named was really Philip Johnson.”

“Renraku’s Red Samurai are tough. But the Black Ashigaru....they were friggin’ crazy.”

“Oni? Sure, I can work with that. Better than my last stage name.”

“King Kamehaha, the walking tsunami, at your service.”

“Never cut a deal with the fair folk, unless you can beat them at a dance-off.”

“What do you mean, ‘Twenty-two‘ isn’t about munitions sizes? I’m telling you, Taylor Swift was a hell of a runner. Look at Bad Blood.”

[thewebcomicsreview]

Wassup? I'm new in the comics scene, and I've been thinking about something. Have you watched Hbomberguys's video on Killing Joke and how he talks about the importance of nuance and subtlety? Well, I don't take issue with him but with the idea that these are important. I'm personally going for something that's just cool and fun. Is this okay or do I need to do some more thinking?

Comics are art, but they don’t have to be ~*Art*~. You can make a silly comic about a dude with a disco ball for a head named Doctor Funkenstein, and it doesn’t have to be a withering critique of neoliberalism or whatever to have value. There are a ton of great comics out there that are light and fun and cool and don’t have any deeper message beyond “My OC superhero Overkill beats up all the bad guys and has unprotected sex with a bunch of girls with huge tits”. That’s a completely okay and valid thing to do with your comics if that’s what you want to do, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

You still need to think more about nuance and subtly, though, because even if your comic isn’t arty or high-class, it should ideally still be good. 

For example, there’s a comic I like called Latchkey Kingdom. It’s a fairly light and fluffy adventure comic with jokes about the zeldas and the soulsbornes and the hippity and the hoppity and all that jazz. And it has a chapter that opens with this panel.

I’ve praised this panel a lot in the past. It’s great, because there are all these subtle nuances that mean that even if you’ve never read Latchkey Kingdom, you have a solid understanding of who this person is. She has an incredibly fancy chair and a fancier dress, and she’s literally looking down at “you�� with a smug expression and amused pose, so you can instantly tell that she’s high class and maybe a bit of a jerk. If you’re a little more perceptive, you might notice that her chair has a crown on it, indicating royalty, and that she’s wearing very practical boots, hinting that she’s perhaps a bit more outdoorsy and practical than the dress alone would indicate. She’s an arrogant snooty princess with a hidden adventurous side, and you can tell just by looking at her. (It is in a featureless void, but featureless voids are under-rated and there’s a perfectly good background shot on the same page)

Here’s a scene from the movie Fargo. In this scene, Jerry is meeting with some bank execs who he believes are going to loan him $750,000 which he needs for yadda yadda, and he realizes that his assumption was not only wrong, but moronic, and that he’s not even a player in the game he thought he was about to win. I’ve linked the whole scene but all you really need are the first fifteen seconds.

Because Jerry is so out of his league here that he doesn’t even have a chair to sit in, he has to awkwardly sit on the arm rest of a chair that’s facing the wrong way, and the second he starts getting comfortable on it he gets BTFO by the main banker guy. This is followed up by the famous Parking Lot scene where Jerry has to scrape the ice of his windshield, throws his ice scraper in a fit of rage, and then has no choice but to pick it all up and go back to scraping. This isn’t a deep arty metaphor, it’s a visual indication of how impotent and powerless Jerry is, but it’s famous for how it captures Jerry’s weakness in such a clever and subtle way. 

A comic that wanted to establish a guy as a loser but didn’t think about these subtle details as much as the Coen brothers might, I dunno, just have him walking and then he falls down and then someone points and him and laughs like Nelson from the Simpsons because ha ha what a loser.

Because if you don’t think about subtle and nuance, all you have is flat and broad, and flat and broad isn’t very memorable. If your character has a disco ball for a head and is a disco-themed supervillain, that’s a very silly idea, but if you show his bedroom and he’s got like one desk next to a bed, you’ve passed on a chance to make the character more interesting. If your comic doesn’t have depth, than it doesn’t reward me for being invested, and if I’m not rewarded for getting invested in your comic, I’m not gonna. 

But if there’s stuff to see and notice and think about, I’m going to get invested, your comic is going to get its hooks into my brain, and even if you do something really weird or dumb like naming a major character Yiffy Longstocking Lalonde Harley, those hooks will keep me reading.

Right so I’m finally about to watch “The Return of Doctor Mysterio” so I figured I might as well liveblog the process

* oh my god Basil I love you but what the fuck are you doing * the kid’s name is Grant and I’m having a hard time believing it’s not because the Moff’s son Louis watches “The Flash” * the milk and cookies and the kid thinking Basil’s Santa is real cute (like seriously the warm ‘ho ho ho’ chuckle and oh my god Doctor you nearly fell 60 stories off a building but ur still all nonchalant and eating the cookie like what a legend amirite?) * okay all of Basil’s interactions with kid!Grant so far are giving me all the “dad skills” feels and I don’t know whether to squee or cry * omg all right I already knew about the part with him trying to fix the time distortions in New York but like it’s still making me emotional??
