Said it a year ago and I’ll say it again.

Pirate all your favorite shows, movies and games while you still have the chance.

Oh, and never stop supporting physical media.

The current state of western industry animation right now:

Clark Kent’s secret identity is normally easy to write off because people just assume Superman had no secret is just Superman all the time and dopplegangers happen in the world all the time.

But in MAWS he is literally hanging out with an undisguised Supergirl.

Like, everyone knows Supergirl and she is just floating around with Daily Planet newbies Jimmy, Lois, and that broad shouldered black-haired 6’4” farm boy.

What was once a fine disguise is now no longer a disguise.

Jason: *Explaining why he fled during the fight.* Tim disappeared, I had to find him and make sure he was all right.

Roy: This boy broke into Nightwing's home, then single-handedly blackmailed Batman at twelve, then caused multiple international incidents with Young Justice, and today he defeated Ra's al Ghul after blowing up dozens of League of Shadows bases.

Roy: Are you sure he's the one you should be worrying about?

the 'Colour-coded Badass Girly Girls Trio' has got to be one of the best tropes in all of fiction.

The Incredibles NSA Audio Files - The Lost Tapes #1: Macroburst

Ever asked yourselves what the interviews for heroes that lacked one in the NSA Audio Files could have sounded like? Well, today is your lucky day! Allow me to show you what they COULD have been like...

───

Macroburst: ¨... Me and Everseer have had a very long and fruitful career I'd say, Everseer told me his hero escapades weren't the easiest at first, but after he discovered me and chose me to become his sidekick? I'd like to think I was the breath of fresh air his life needed back then, hahaha...¨

───

Macroburst: ¨When it comes to working on a team? I couldn't have asked for anything better than The Phantasmiscs, for a while there it really was just me and Everseer on our crusade against crime! Until Everseer and Psywave met for the first time... And Plasmabolt quite literally crashed into our lives when she crash landed on our old headquarters.¨

Macroburst: ¨It was kinda difficult for me to make that transition at first, I mean, I was so used to working with Everseer that anything other than that felt foreign to me, but eventually? I got used to it, we became one of the best hero teams out there, and now? I'll get to go off and fly solo as my own superhero soon enough!¨

Macroburst: ¨I can't thank them all enough for everything they did to help me get here, Everseer's advice, Plasma's flying lessons, Psywave... Being nice, sometimes, they all helped shape me into the hero I am now... But I also can't help but wonder what getting coffee for Psywave or washing Everseer's car had to do with hero work, I mean, I still remember all the times Everseer asked me to clean up his bathroom and he'd freak out on me if he saw a single germ! Sometimes it felt like bacteria was a bigger arch nemesis to him than Baron von Ruthless is to Meta Man!¨

Macroburst: ¨I have nothing but respect for Everseer, of course, but sometimes I can't help but shake my head whenever he has a meltdown over personal hygiene, I mean, really, what kind of person gets so uppity about some- WOAH!¨

Audio cuts off for around 4 seconds...

Macroburst: ¨OH MY GOD! Did you see that!? That bird just now tried to... IN MY HEAD!? IT'S IN THE PAVEMENT, RIGHT WHERE I WAS STANDING! MY HAIR WOULD'VE BEEN RUINED IF I HADN'T NOTICED THAT!¨

Macroburst: ¨WHAT, YOU THINK YOU CAN JUST FLY AWAY NOW!? GET BACK HERE THIS INSTANT!¨ Rest of the tape becomes inaudible due to sudden high levels of wind noise as the tape cuts off...

───

That's it from me, folks! I'll be the first one to admit that I'm no Brad Bird when it comes to writing, far from it, but I'd like to think we could have gotten a tape similar to this one in the world where EVERYONE in the NSA Audo FIles had interviews available for us to listen to! I saw there was enough interest in my last post for something like this, so I decided to toss my hat into the ring and I hope you'll all enjoy my interpretation of these characters, from what little we have available to use as reference.

I'm planning to do these for all these bozos, with Meta Man being up next, I hope you'll stick around for that one and the others to follow!
