I am SO obsessed with little ethnique son however. he’s brown and beautiful FERAL DEMON BABY OF COLOR…. 🥺🤲🏽
@ManInTrenchc0at @TheDevil0fHK Respectfully, anyone who reads fantastic four knows Reed loves Sue and constantly works on their marriage and is tormented by the guilt he feels over Ben lol
@ImperiusWrecked and half… I think it boils down to this panel for doom as well but inverted? he compulsively blames reed bc otherwise he’d no longer have an excuse to fixate on reed and linger at the baxter building doorway, waiting to be invited in like a lonely vampire
two in one having doom fight other versions of himself in the most externalized version of doom’s inner conflict ever… and ben Gets It. in a “I’m also a boy who blocks his own shot” way but also. manly men who understand Violence. ifykyk
the combo of secret wars & TIO is SO interesting then bc SW #9 is a clear gesture from reed to bring things full circle and basically everything HE can to heal doom’s wounds (literally) but then zdarsky comes in like “NOT SO FAST. now doom must battle his true enemy: HIMSELF” LOL
ben or doom forgiving reed for their accidents is like a necessary step for healing because it's part reconnecting with reed but also once that reed fence is mended, it becomes about tackling the personal guilt and personal loathing and that! is so especially hard for doom
(this is actually ben talking to kristoff bcs he was throwing a tantrum but) LITERALLY the doom & ben venn diagram of "wounded, wanting family, too-aware and resentful of possibly being pitied" also expanded to include fellow aggressive monster-in-law spider-man
@kitausuret93 (see) the projection on doom's part, ben's acceptance of being part of the family while doom's historically shied from it while yearning for it, their mirrored uncomplicated loathing & also understanding, so so interesting. kirby allegedly drawing on his own bg for both of them!
duggan down so bad he’s literally copying off avengers endgame now??? 😭??? I hate this man
doom: for your information, doom fucks. jk this isn’t my kid. he’s up in my castle on his PS5
