The lack of sound is… unsettling. It forces you to take in the absolute chaos for what it is.

do you think kirby’s skin is moist when you touch him

[solvatochrome]

or do you think its like rubbery? like an inflated balloon?

[solvatochrome]

if you stabbed him would he pop or bleed?

[tgapa]

Do you take constructive criticism on your posts ???

[solvatochrome]

all respectable scientists must accept peer review on their research findings

[tgapa]

Due to the nature of kirby’s inflation (inhalation of the air or other airborne elements) Kirby’s anatomy would only make sense to be a large bodily chasm much like the human lung to capture and hold the atmospheric area inside of him.

Kirby also floats, suggesting either A) he is lighter than the atmospheric pressure and gravity affecting him and can propel himself through the atmosphere or B) he is strong enough to conteract those forces. Both of which suggest Kirby is not fat or excess skin, but muscle. He is also depicted as smooth and without imperfections as if to suggest that inflated kirby has no stretching of his skin. Smaller kirby and Larger kirby can have different volumes, indicating Kirby has excess skin which can retract into his body when not in use. Which would be able to reside in the chasm of Kirby, that is contracted and relaxed.

So while he may be soft and squishy when deflated, I think Kirby when he has taken in air is much more like a basketball, firm and stiff thanks to the extension (possible hyperextension) of his muscles. Kirby is softer when not inflated due to the relaxtaion of his muscles although the moistness is a variable I am unable to comprehend at this time.

Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk this is why kirby would actually just eat the knife if you tried to stab him

finally, an actually constructive criticism

In December of 1940, America still hadn’t entered the war.

There were a lot of Americans - such as the 800,000 paying members of the America First Committee - who looked at fascists massacring their way through Europe and declared “that’s not our problem.”

Captain America was created by two poor Jewish Americans, Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, with the specific intent of trying to convince Americans that entering the war was the right thing to do.  It wasn’t easy - Kirby went far beyond what was expected of artists at the time, penciling the entire issue with a deadline that would have been difficult for a two-man crew to pull off.  

Captain America punched Hitler right on the cover, at a time when a majority of Americans just didn’t feel like doing anything decisive against the Nazis.

Kirby and Simon faced considerable resistance for their creation, including steady hate mail and outright death threats.  

Once, while Jack was in the Timely office, a call came from someone in the lobby. When Kirby answered, the caller threatened Jack with bodily harm if he showed his face. Kirby told the caller he would be right down, but by the time Jack reached street level, there was no one to be found.

Both creators enlisted after America entered the war.  Kirby, as an artist, was called upon to do the extremely dangerous work of scouting ahead to draw maps.  He also went on to co-create Black Panther in 1966.

They didn’t create Captain America to be an accurate depiction of America-As-It-Is.  The character was meant to inspire and embolden, to show America-As-It-Should-Be.

The subject of where the Vibranium for the shield came from actually never came up for decades of comics, until it was finally addressed by Black Panther’s writer, Christopher Priest, in 2001.  Priest never shied away from acknowledging America’s racism, but he also understood that Captain America represented an ideal, intended to inspire Americans to be better. 

The story mixed together a “present day” discussion between Cap and T’Challa with flashbacks to when Cap met the Black Panther ruling Wakanda during World War II.

FLASHBACK:

PRESENT:

PRESENT -> FLASHBACK

PRESENT:

The Vibranium was given, freely, by one good man to another good man.

It is right to rage against the injustices done by our governments.  We must call them out, and we must fight for what’s right.

But if you can’t even stand to see the symbols created to inspire people to be better, and rail against those, then you’re just confusing cynicism for realism.

Fandometrics In Depth: The Avengers

This post is entirely spoiler free for anyone who has yet to see Avengers: Infinity War.

It’s finally here. A cinematic event ten years in the making, the entire Marvel cinematic universe collides in today’s release of Avengers: Infinity War. After a solid decade of theory after theory, we will finally know who lives, who dies, and if Stucky will ever be canon.

With more than 16 million engagements, #Marvel is the fifth most popular brand on Tumblr in 2018 thus far—right behind #BTS, #Voltron: Legendary Defender, and #Overwatch. To celebrate, let’s take a look back at which Avengers have dominated the Marvel conversation.

The people behind the superheroes

When it comes to the MCU, there’s a trope of naming the films after the main superhero’s alter ego. To separate the films from the characters as much as we could, we’re using a strict real name policy for this list. It’s no surprise that Tumblr’s first boyfriend, Loki, takes top honors. Following him by less than 1% is our favorite memelord and STEM superstar, Shuri. Here’s the full breakdown:

Loki | 14.54%

Shuri | 13.74%

Bucky Barnes | 13.53%

Tony Stark | 12.53%

Steve Rogers | 12.01%

T’Challa | 10.46%

Peter Parker | 10.31%

Okoye | 5.94%

Thor Odinson | 4.19%

Bruce Banner | 2.75%

Also the people behind the superheroes

Two years ago, Sebastian Stan was declared Tumblr’s newest boyfriend. What a trend! Right behind him is Tom Holland, who was the No. 1 celebrity on Tumblr back in 2017. The rest of the list reads like a beautiful poem full of people we cherish:

Sebastian Stan | 19.96%

Tom Holland | 16.97%

Tom Hiddleston | 13.48%

Chris Evans | 12.4%

Chadwick Boseman | 11.21%

Danai Gurira | 5.78%

Chris Hemsworth | 5.44%

Letitia Wright | 5.2%

Robert Downey Jr. | 4.97%

Benedict Cumberbatch | 4.6%

Tony Stark is very shippable

If you follow our weekly ships list, you’re probably familiar with Stucky, but the rest of the list might surprise you. In a Fandometrics first, we have a three-way ship—a.k.a. a thruple (!)—on the list. Congratulations, thruple shippers! And congratulations to Tony Stark, who appears in 60% of the top ten ships.

Stucky (Steve Rogers x Bucky Barnes) | 34.56%

Stony (Steve Rogers x Tony Stark) | 23.27%

Thorki (Thor x Loki) | 22.93%

Winteriron (Bucky Barnes x Tony Stark) | 4.78%

Romanogers (Natasha Romanoff x Steve Rogers) | 3.87%

Frostiron (Loki x Tony Stark) | 3.44%

Pepperony (Pepper Potts x Tony Stark) | 2.16%

Starkquill (Tony Stark x Peter Quill) | 1.82%

Stuckony (Steve Rogers x Bucky Barnes x Tony Stark) | 1.69%

Clintasha (Clint Barton x Natasha Romanoff) | 1.48%

Ok, Harry, pay attention. I’ve brought you to the Hogwarts Library. Why? Because it’s the biggest library in the magical world. Over 20 million books. And they’re all saying the exact same thing: Listen to Hermione.

Hermione Granger [to Harry Potter, at some point, definitely] (via incorrect-harry-potter-quotes)

[slytherins-slither]

Slytherin: The risk I took was carefully calculated.

Ravenclaw: WE ALMOST DIED!

Slytherin: I never said I was good at math.

[thegryffindorvybe]

Ravenclaw: School doesn’t test your intelligence, it tests your memory.

Gryffindor: It tests my patience.

Hufflepuff: It tests my ability to hold my pee.

Slytherin: It tests my ability to keep calm and not slap a bitch.

Prototyping paper Okami mask. It’s also made without glue or tape :) though this prototype still needs a lot of work before it holds well together.

I actually made this a while back but stopped to work on my comics instead. Lol the curse of having too many projects orz…

And happy Chinese New Year everyone! :D
