Redemption, Part 2

[arbre_rieur]

Three pages from IRREDEEMABLE 32 and four from INCORRUPTIBLE 25, the first two parts of the IRREDEEMABLE/INCORRUPTIBLE crossover...

The Plutonian's earliest memories:









But what about the teenage hunter? He was left pretty badly hurt:



Many years later, the Plutonian nabs some bank robbers in their getaway 'copter...

So Max was the teenage hunter and the bank robber that we see in prison?

[twomasks]

Bingo.

I'm really disappointed in this turn of events. It just feels like a huge cliche.

[freezer]

Very Batman/Joker-ish, yes.

[xammax]

Batman and Joker never interact until Bruce is well into being Batman and the Joker was committing a crime as Red Hood. Lex and Superman-ish more like.

Unless your counting the Burton origin... you can leave if you are.

It actually feels a lot like one story where Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent sort of met when they were kids. They kinda meet/ pass one another but the meeting doesn't otherwise affect them.

[cypherfdp]

Disappointment is par the course.

At this point I just get like GTA level cognitive dissonance off of the fucking gap between Irredeemable apparently taking itself seriously like with this stuff and when it's fucking bein all ANOTHER DOZEN ORPHANS ONTO THE FIRE, WHEEEEEE

[cypherfdp]

Can't wait to see how this ends up with Plutonian becoming even more powerful through some contrived bullshit and breaking out of his increasingly ridiculous "HE DEFINITELY WON'T GET OUT OF THIS ONE. NOPE" prisons.

[pyrotwilight]

You didn't read the ending of Irredeemable 32 I take it then? XD

[cypherfdp]

Unfortunately, I did.

[cypherfdp]

I mean FUCK at some point you just have to realize that he is always going to break out of these supposedly inescapable prisons, like, how many times are we going to try pitting him against someone supposedly stronger, locking him in space jail or fucking heat death before we realize "you know, we can't really rely on any of these things, let's just kill the bastard while we still have the chance"?

[cypherfdp]

but then again, he would probably just beat up the not-devil that we saw in his space drugs sequence and escape and destroy Madagascar or whatever.

I dunno, fuck him, he sucks.

[pyrotwilight]

Indeed. It's one of the reasons I loved Survivor wanting to finish off Tony. And why I dislike Qubit (well that and his apparent view that if you want to crime fight without powers you're worthless).
