when fictional people intrigue you more than real people.
I'm reading an old Earth-2 story from the 70s. Robin, Power Girl, and Star Spangled Kid help the JSA through many predicaments, yet are consistently being treated like 'a bunch of kids' or whatever. Worst one is probably Wildcat, who so maturely punches and breaks a television when it stops working during a game, and pages later tells the newcomers that they could learn a lot from the pros and are still wet behind the ears, and Power Girl's like "You're welcome for closing up the earthquake and putting out the volcano, jerkface." No, she didn't say that word for word but its close.
It's sick because i'm reading this during breaks at a workplace where much of the same crap is happening, where you can't respect your superiors because you don't have too many to work with.
They just don't write them like this anymore.
There is no version of this where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes, and maybe it’s too much for us, but it’s all on you. Because if we can’t protect the Earth, you can be damn well sure we’ll avenge it.

It would help if you weren't so god damn boring all the time. Instead of complaining, get a personality.

r. Worst one is probably Wildcat, who so maturely punches and breaks a television when it stops working during a game, What issue was that? I'd like to read it. Ted Grant can be a dick at times. There was a JSA comic a few years back where Grant was bragging how he likes to get new members in the boxing ring and beat them up to show them who's the boss.

Guess I'd be a lot more boring too if I didn't have a workplace to complain about. Besides, I did just get a raise recently so it's all good. Anyway.. r. Worst one is probably Wildcat, who so maturely punches and breaks a television when it stops working during a game, What issue was that? I'd like to read it. Ted Grant can be a dick at times. There was a JSA comic a few years back where Grant was bragging how he likes to get new members in the boxing ring and beat them up to show them who's the boss. I think I got some of the chronology mixed up earlier but the TV scene is in All-Star Comics #60 from June 1976.

Don't be silly. Anyone who reads the Earth-Two Robin is a reader of Dick Grayson.

Why does the Mxy family hate Dick Grayson? Because the one they have is too small. Yeah, I went there.
