Black is the new blue...

[Elan's Modron]

In that - wait for it, wait for it - Blackwing is totally bad-@ss. Just like O-Chul was bad-@ss. (And O-Chul was from, you know Blue-land...)

Okay- that was a truly totally torturous route I just took, merely to say: I HEART BLACKWING.

Blackwing's bad-assitude: Discuss.

[Zordrath]

Reasonable warnings don't make one badass. Badass would have been to take care of that wizard by himself so that V doesn't have to use spells and the problem is nonetheless dealt with :smallamused:

[RMS Oceanic]

Yeah, Badass usually involves physical action. Hence the concept of the Badass Bookworm.

Being a voice of reason, though, is a good thing.

[Elan's Modron]

You guys are both right.

I tend to fall guilty to "badass = anything I like."

But *IF* loving Blackwing is wrong, I just don't wanna be right.

[RMS Oceanic]

Oh, there's nothing wrong with liking Blackwing. I just think that you don't need to flandarize the concept of the badass in doing it.

Although personally, I just haven't seen enough of Blackwing as a character rather than a plot device or source of a gag to get a feel for his personality. I guess it's a little soon.

Some things you (=meaning 'me') just know in your (=meaning 'my') heart.

I like Blackwing, too...but he's not badass. If he were, he would have eaten Xykon's phylactery whole and forced him to find and reassemble it one Raven dropping at a time.

[Pyrolep]

I don't think he could digest that..

[Raging Gene Ray]

That's exactly my point! If he was badass, he could and would!

O-Chul once ate an entire toilet, piece by piece!

Then he went off to eat hickory smoked horse buttholes from a cup and kill his own mother with a broken lawn chair!

O-Chul is not a doctor!!!

Well, so far he's acting like a raven.

[RoninAngel]

I like that Blackwing...
Oooh! Shiny!:smalltongue:

[Elan's Modron]

The awesomeness of Blackwing - (or- as someone called him in another thread- Ala Negra) continues to expand at a frightening pace.
I heart that damn bird.
As I've said before- if loving Blackwing is wrong- I just don't wanna be right. EVER.

Plus- with his new sombrero he's ready to get all Sergio Leone on us, should he so desire.

THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE FAMILIAR

[TehSheen]

Blackwing is awesome. No questions asked.

[Optimystik]

He might be insightful, but he has yet to overcome his cowardice in my eyes. Badass? Not yet.

[Elan's Modron]

Um- I wasn't here for the shutting down of fan club threads. (But, you know, I hear things...)

I truly don't want to hack the mods off-
This is probably an embryonic fan-thread, huh?
Should I cease & desist?

[*sobs* Oh Blackwing!!!!]

[Optimystik]

You are discussing one particular aspect of the character (i.e. his "badassery") rather than simply making a general "I think this character is cool! Who's with me???"-type thread that has been locked before. My guess would be that you're fine, but then I'm not a moderator, so take that for what it's worth :smalltongue:

Ah! Thanks for the insight.
Still, I guess I won't push my luck...

[factotum]

Cowardice? Oh, you mean the occasion where he ran away from a fight with a Death Knight who could kill him with less effort than it took to (not) breathe? That's not cowardice, that's common sense, and if V had any he would have been high-tailing it after the raven! After all, he'd already destroyed the DK's horse and presumably could thus have at least matched its speed.

[pflare]

Badass? No. Voice of reason? Yes. I love a good consience

If he did that, then I dfinately do NOT like people who are bad-ass.:smalleek:
