and what is your reasoning for this?

>>149425834 (OP)
Terrific is cool because he's a very tactical dude and does his own shit. Riri just cries.

Left was written good. Right was written poorly.

those are very superficial similarities

>>149425834 (OP)

i liked both to be honest. IronHeart is fun I just wish it wasn't magitech AGAIN but magic as substitute for Tony's perfect fuel source makes sense at least.

>>149425834 (OP)
Because left isn't a horrible person nor mary sue

>>149425834 (OP)
Left is just a nigga existing.
Right stole someone else’s identity.

>>149426278
About that

>>149425834 (OP)
Right is "supposed to be smart" but does some of the most retarded things imaginable without a second thought. Left actually is shown to be smart through his actions, by both not listening to fucking Guy Gardner and unfucking Lex's world ending portal dimension.

>>149425834 (OP)
Ironheart was great and I still don't understand the hate. Riri was an actually realistic flawed protagonist because she became a fucking villain and didn't realize it.

>>149426337
Hi Brian, how’s Dark Horse going for ya?

>>149426309
Left is a guy who took on the identity of long-dead hero to find a new direction for his life following the death of his wife and in a time-travel adventure got the approval of the original who was glad that his actions could inspire a legacy of heroics.

Right got mailed an AI copy of a hero to keep an eye on her because she was flagged as a potential danger.

Mr. Terrific: Introduced by John Ostrander a legend with comic book writing chops.

Iron Fart: written by DEI Ewing because "OMG we have the same hair gurl."

We may never know anon. We may never know.

>>149425834 (OP)
Riri is supposed to be Iron Man but a black woman and falls so far deep into this one trait its actually a bad parody.

Other guy isn't relying on any pre-existing characters for reference and while still kind of an arrogant ass at times was not the star of the show despite playing a major role and having fun scenes. If he had his own series it'd probably be terrible but as a side character he's doing fine.

Plus dude flys around in a chair, that's funny and cool.

>>149425834 (OP)
I honestly forgot Ironheart existed and thought she was Engineer

>>149426450
Iron Heart was created by Brian Michael Bendis, retard.

Bendis' version wasn't stealing shit, killing people, and making deals with the devil, retard.

>>149426752
Both are legacies of white heroes, one of them has just been a legacy for longer, and the original was pretty obscure.

>>149425834 (OP)
I'm never watching gunnslop so I can't comment on Terrific, I honestly thought his name was Fairplay and i still think that's a better name.

Riri is not cringe. she's extremely cute and has a sexy tummy capable and talented but she lives in the post-Iron Man world where every tech miracle might as well be trash unless you have Stark/Holt money. I believe there was another person who felt the same way and fell into villainous ways, except Riri didn't do anything out of spite or jealousy and redeem herself when the opportunity presented itself.

The reason people hate characters like Riri is because they can't exist without tearing down and shitting on what came before. In this case Iron Man and Tony Stark. Riri can't just be her own character, she has to establish why she's better than Tony. Regardless of what happens with that character's arc you instantly lose a connection with a legacy character when they're spending time shitting on the legacy that came before.

A character like Mr. Terrific is free from this baggage. He's a legacy character, but he honors, respects, and loves the original Mr. Terrific in the comics and Gunn will surely keep that element of his character in the DCU moving forward if it were to come up. He never upstages Superman, he never has a scene that shows he's better than any of the characters in the film while the movie smugly points it out. He's a character in a movie doing his part in a movie where every character gets their moment and is allowed to shine in their own unique way thanks to their own unique skill set. The reason non-white male characters have become so divisive is because so many of them are written as smug underdogs that are actually better than the white characters everyone grew up loving but because they're a woman/not white/whatever they can only fail. No one wants to see that shit. No one wants to watch a movie to get lectured about how the thing they love was bad actually and it needs to be fixed. Mr. Terrific is just allowed to be a character without any real world political baggage attached to him. The way things were before smug meta-irony overtook media.

>>149425834 (OP)
Terrific has a good origin story that makes him compelling qnd cool. Ironheart is a mary sue and a derivative character that adds nothing other than a raceswap of an already existing character

>>149425834 (OP)
Terrific did hero shot and was good at what he did.

>>149425834 (OP)
/co/ hated Riri, is similar to Miles in that she had a lot of haters and bad press before getting a series that carries over to other media. Mr. Terrific flies under the radar because it feels like people remember he exist once a year.

>one is a character who's been around for decades and has a dedicated fanbase due to his long history in the comics

>>149425834 (OP)
Mr. T is autistic, which is inherently hilarious

Black characters are only acceptable if they were made before the year 2000 in 4chan's eyes.

>>149427020
Comic Riri is dangerously autistic

MCU Riri just... is

Terrific is like Steel. Kind of a lot like Steel come to think of it. But anyways the point is that he's just dude trying to do right and live up to the people who inspired him. He works well on a team and lets his actions speak louder than words. Iron Heart is a petulant brat looking for head pats who caused a stink before she ever picked up the mantle.

I didn't know basically anything about Mr Terrific going into the movie but remembering how in JLU he took over control of operations & deployment in the Watchtower after J'onn left was enough for me to give him respect going in, and he more than proved that was warranted in the actual film. Sometimes you just need that one positive connection to give a character the benefit of the doubt, no matter how small.

>>149427179
By bringing up trannies even though no one was talking about them. /v/irgins do that a lot too - constantly drawing reference to trannies and interracial porn appropos of nothing because it's always at the forefront of their minds.

Riri Williams spends the entire show building amazing inventions -wristwatches that emit personal safety bubbles, holographic projectors the size of a small necklace, an emergent AI that fits on a shitty laptop, tiny fucking wind turbines and solar panels with such an efficient energy conversion rate that they can power a fucking Iron Man suit- and rather than patenting any of these ideas and becoming a literal MULTIBILLIONAIRE overnight she instead takes up with an obvious criminal organization to steal mere thousands of dollars.

Crimes she commits while wearing an easily identifiable suit of flying armor that everyone in Chicago has seen her wearing and that MIT knows she stole, by the way.

And to add to the bullshit sundae, her first suit requires her to defraud MIT for four years to be able to build it and make it functional and requires extremely rare and expensive components from a black arms dealer to repair... yet somehow she's able to build an entirely new and far more advanced suit in a few hours using only parts from a fucking 1971 Cuda 440. Now, I'm no automotive expert, but I'm pretty sure your average Plymouth doesn't contain the kind of shit you'd need to make a functional Iron Man suit.

>>149426904
>extremely cute and has a sexy tummy

Neither of those things are true. Her actress has a fucking sloped ape skull and every time she mover her mouth it looks like the act is causing her physical pain.

The girls who play Natalie and the witch girl are both ten times more attractive than Riri. Hell, Clown is hotter than Riri, even with that retarded fucking nose ring.

Is it actually true Ironheart makes a deal with the Devil because she wants to be ICONIC?

One is a dumb Mary Sue and condescending bitch who looks about 12. She actively ignores and demeans others, never learns from her mistakes, and fails upwards and grows more powerful for no other reason than that she's a DEI character.

The other has clear limitations, at no point was condescending to anyone but some of Lex's goons - and his design is much cooler.

Mr. Terrific is fucking cool and I hope we see more of him. I couldn't care less about Ironshart and hope she gets retired as a character. I'm sure she could be retooled into an interesting character but I think we need like 7-10 years to take a break from her first she is unlikable.

Earlier today I wore a Superman t-shirt while at college. I was approached by an old black man who told me not to watch the new Superman movie. He said it was too kiddie while the Snyder films were more adult. He complained Lois Lane wasn't attractive. He said that he's been watching Superman before I was even born, and that Lois Lane has always been a bitch. He said that Superman could do better, and could have any woman he wants or even multiple women. He also disagreed with me when I said Wonder Woman is as strong as Superman. I was and still am fucking gobmacked a near-elderly black guy would tell a complete stranger that he judges the quality of a movie based on how hot the female lead is, that Superman should have a harem, and powerscaling debates. I can only aspire to be so based.

Mr. Terrific is a legacy character in that he took up an old defunct heroes ideals for inspiration.
Riri WIlliams took up a living white heroes name so she could join a criminal band and steal from people.

Steel is like Iron Man if he made it out the mud instead of being a silver-spoon trust fund kid.

well no that's not what he said, because they like most people don't actually understand or pay any attention to how policies will actually affect their lives.
