Speedball is a real Bubblehead: Part 2


So what happened to Speedball? This hard-headed-cause of all the disaster-hero is still as stubborn as a fungus residing in your toenails. Why can't he just apologize to the public about the Stamford disaster? Can't he just admit that he was responsible? If not for him, none of the Stamford tragedy would have happened. Almost 600 people died and he still sticks to his erratic principle. I mean, he tried to take down heroes above form his level of powers. That's stupidity and dumbness.

So what happened in the prison? Mr. Bubblehead, yeah Speedball, went on a boxing match with the best fighter in Jail. I was amazed when I saw that he still has the skill for a boxing match. But the prisoners won't let him win so some inmate cut his leg with a knife. Just right for him. Right for a man with no conscience. Bubblehead's mom even visited him in prison to persuade him to apologize to the poor family and the people of America. Robert Baldwin, a.k.a. Speedball is the most hated man in America at present.

All of this events happening in the Marvel universe only.

Its not speedballs fault. Speedball didnt go into stamford with a bomb a blow it up killing everyone, Nitro did. Maybe Speedball only went after them for ratings and such, but its no different than when spiderman goes after a villian. Everyone in the books are blaming Speedball calling him a child killer and what not, while not even giving so much as a thought about Nitro who actually chose to do what he did. So I can understand Speedball saying its not his fault...cause its not.

It may not be directly SpeedBall's fault but if you'll study it closer, before Speedball and the New Warriors went on for those bad guys, they should've taken into consideration the bad guys capability and powers. But like I said before, the New Warriors knew Nitro's capability of self detonation yet they went on for it. It was the fault of Speedball because he was the leader and he insisted on attacking the bad guys taking for granted the fact that they knew Nitro.
If there's something that Speedball should do, he should apologize to the poeple and the family of those victims.

I disagree, does a police officer have to apologize when the criminal he is chasing does something. Does the firefighter have to apologize for the actions of fire. No, so why does a hero have to apologize for the actions of a supervillian.

Not only that, but superheroes are defined to take care of supervillians. The New Warriors were a sanctioned team, they were doing there job taking down escaped supervillians. Now if speedball had lost control of his power and caused the explosion, that would be a different matter.

I think Speedball can be forgiven for thinking the Warriors had a chance, given that in their very first battles they successfully faced a herald of Galactus and the Juggernaut. Nitro doesn't seem much more dangerous, and he's never managed to cause so much collateral damage when taken down by other heroes, including a solo Daredevil!

If you read Civil war carefully, you'll notice that Nitro is technacally not able to do that much damage, I mean he can explode himself, cool, but not explode a full school... his explosion was more powerfull than it should (see wolverines part why...) ... Personally i think he's not guilty, it's like if a cop try to stop a bomb, fails but survive the explosion : are you gonna condemn him?

Spider-Man almost died: Give Punisher your thanks

I was supposed to blog about Civil War #5 after I read it but I'm always too busy. Not now. It's Sunday and it's weekend. Just looking at the cover of Civil War #5 tells you the whole story of it. But let's get into details. And so Iron Man found out that Spider-Man was going against him. So they had a little fight. Iron Man tried to talk Spider-Man but I guess no one will believe Iron Man anymore. Spider-Man was questioning Iron Man why'd he put all the heroes who refuse to register in the negative zone. Spider-Man's point that putting these heroes who didn't violate any crime but only wears those tights for good intentions is very cruel. Spider-Man was against Iron Man's ideas and that, Iron Man didn't like it. Iron man said Spider-Man was a lunatic. Meanwhile, the Fantastic Four Siblings, The Human Torch and The Invisible Woman was being chased by S.H.I.E.L.D. units. They just realized that the registration act is wrong and they're on their wa...

It wasn't David who killed Goliath. It was Thor.

So it is true that Thor has killed one of Captain America 's allies. Yes Thor just murdered one of his former ally. Read on and light your candles. I just recently bought a while ago the most awaited Civil War #4 . I read through the first five pages and I found myself very sad about the events. Iron Man was beating Captain America down to the ground making his jaw almost fall off. Thor was throwing his Mighty Hammer at every anti-registration act super hero he sees. If you could just see Thor's eyes, it's full of rage ready to take down every one who opposes him. It's just too bad that Goliath died trying to stop Thor. Yeah, it was Goliath who died. Why would Thor kill his former team mate? I have the answer so again, read on. The pro-registration Super Heroes were shocked at what Thor did. Nobody was supposed to die. But Thor didn't know that. It's because that Thor isn't the original Thor . The Thor that killed Goliath was a clone of the original ...

The U.S. president just ordered Deadpool to bring Cable down, Dead or Alive

I just got my copy of Cable and Deadpool yesterday at Comic Quest. I've read through the issue just once because of my busy life -- I'm a Web Designer. I started buying comics when I was still in highschool but I never get to finish a series because I don't have the money to buy me the complete issue every month. Now that I've got a day job and I'm earning as much as you do, yeah the normal employed guy like you, I have been able to complete some new series this year. Let's get back to the Story. And yeah, so Deadpool found the New Avengers hideout and as usual, Deadpool is using his bigmouth again to try to beat down Cap's guys. Deadpool is very funny. So he thought he could take Cap's men down and tried to fight them but to his dismay he failed. The Avengers tied him up especially his big loud mouth. That was the funny part of it. Then cable freed him and they teleported to the White House. Cable tried to talk out the President but to no avail, the Pr...
