Just a little Piper awesome to start the week

Just thought I'd share a page of Pied Piper awesome.

The context to this is that Linda's investigating a strange snake cult that seems to be taking over the other cults in the city. She gets attacked on her way to her car, and calls Piper for back-up. Basically saying 'grab your best hardware and meet me at home'. Argus saves Linda in the garage and brings her home.

And then we get:

Piper as a good guy ROCKED.

	You know, just once, I'd like to see a gun/weapon that would be considered a vaginal symbol rather than a phallic one. Or a boob-shaped one. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 4 comments) (Show 4 comments)

	I seem to recall that a lot of people thought the gun in portal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_%28video_game%29) was kind of a vaginal symbol, in effect if not in shape. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Because subtext is never enough, they gave him, not one, but two, positioned just so on his belt. See, the ~~flute~~sonic gun is his penis. (And if it's still not clear, he's willing to describe the Incident at Band Camp in considerable detail.) (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 2 comments) (Show 2 comments)

	yes! angel_negra 2010-05-24 04:31 pm UTC (link)
	He DOES. <3 He's got so much awesome going on in the series. He became an awesome champion of homeless needs, super tech support for Wally, as well as informant, is basically Wally and Linda's BFF, and then he'll pop up in bad ass moments like the one I posted above.

Pied Piper is made of awesome covered with a dollop of winsauce. He champions the homeless! He stops speeding locomotives with music! He hypnotises people and rats! He blows up Apokolips! - With Queen!

.... All of which is why I became very nervous when I saw Geoff Johns' tweet about bringing back the Pied Piper. Under Johns' tender loving care, Piper's parents were murdered, he's been framed for three murders he didn't commit (his parents, Bart Allen, Inertia), and he wussied out under Johns's canon Gary Stu, Captain Cold. Given what Johns has been doing with the Rogues lately, as much as I adore Piper, I'd almost rather see him safe in Comic Book Limbo.
