[eliyes]

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!!!
