Have you read the latest issue of Blue Beetle? No? GO READ IT OMG
OMG GUY IS MADE OF WIN! WIN. There's just, I love this entire issue. I especially love the last page.
So I'ma quote it atcha.
*ahem*
[panel 1]
JAIME: So you see my problem. I'm totally overpowered here. They're bigger, got better weapons, more experience, starships!
GUY: *pulling a book out of his knapsack* I got something for you. Left it inside when I came earlier.
[panel 2]
GUY: *holds out the book to Jaime*
JAIME: "Strategy" by Liddell-Hart.
GUY: Ted gave it to me. There's a list of more books he wanted me to read, written in the back cover. Tactics, military intelligence, data analysis, stuff like that.
[panel 3]
GUY: He was always trying to get me to think like him. But a man's gotta know his swing, Jaime. I hit things, and I'm good at thinking about hitting things.
[panel 4]
GUY: Ted Kord had no powers, kid. He was always "overpowered." Be he always won. I saw him mop the floor with guys who ate stars.
GUY: Because he was smarter. He was smarter than Bats, although nobody ever noticed.
[panel 5]
GUY: You can beat these punks. But you gotta stop thinkin' like some scared kid with fancy power armour...
JAIME: *reading the book*
GUY: ...and start thinkin' like The Blue Beetle.
*scream* GUY I LOVE YOU!!!
