Killings my business & business is good

In my very first posting about everyone's favorite gun for hire I talked about how much I love it that he can take on meta-human opponents and still kick ass just by keeping his cool and using strategy. Characters like Deadshot make me feel like if I ever went up against some dude 3 times as big as me that I could take him down as long as I kept my cool. Hey it worked for another David a long time ago. Perhaps you're familiar with the fable of David & Goliath? My parents sure were.
Deadshot of course uses all sorts of firearms as opposed to a sling. And along with his penchant for 100% accuracy he can take down just about anybody by exploiting their weak spots. So if a genetically engineered armored cyborg beast thing that has you trapped at the bottom of an elevator shaft comes for you, what do? huh hot shot, what do you do? We'll apparently it's quite simple. Just stick your guns in his face and open fire repeatedly, problem solved.
Or in the event of some sort of man dog sorta thing with really big teeth getting the drop on you. Simply insert your Dirty Harry six shooter in it's mouth and pull the trigger. Even Michael Vick couldn't top that kind of doggy care. But holy shit what about a vampire!? What the Hell do you do against the undead with just a gun!? No problem, if you keep your head (couldn't resist). You just gotta quickly run through all the traditional ways a vampire can be "killed". Let's see a stake through the heart, garlic, holy water, fire, silver, sunlight (fuck Twilight!) and . . . . I got it! I'll just blow his head off.
And when it comes to terrorists with super speed? No problem there either for a
guy who can see each beat of a humming bird's wings.
How about that Floyd, a real lady killer huh? Come to think of it why would this female super speed terrorist be running around in a cocktail lounge out fit complete with mini skirt?

  1. Because all the lycra stretchpants and corsets were sold out that day at super-villains r us? For that matter, who the hell told her that haircut looked good? No wonder she turned to a life of crime. Deadshot is the man, no doubt. I'd feel safer having him at my back. No way would those baddies be getting back up for one final shot.

  3. well one thing is for certain she's not an islamic terrorist with that out fit. let's hear it for DC comics for not reinforcing negative stereotypes. some jobs are better left up to the media. not to be a hypocrite here or anything.

  4. Heehee. Maybe she just has really bad taste. It happens. But if she wanted to go for revealing and slutty she could do it and still be more practical than that. I mean seriously, that skirt would be so difficult to fight in, no wonder she lost. And the hair! Anything a bit longer or shorter would be both more attractive and easier to work with. Let's face it..positive life choices are not this girl's strong suit.

  5. We've seen far worse costumes on both heroes and villains. A female ninja with thigh-high leather stilleto stripper boots? Yeah, that says "stealth" to me.

  6. Poor girl. She had just left the hairdress salon after paying for a bad hair cut. That was her first bad luck.
    Meeting Deadshot was her last bad luck of the day, but wearing that skirt and top, when your super power is jogging, was a disaterous decision of her, and that she can't blame on luck.

  7. Yeah, But at least the ninja "looked" good Craig. This is ugly and inefficient.

    Exactly, Aliera.

  11. Go for the face has to be an option more people need to think of. It's like car chases - do people forget about tires these days? As for the girls fashion sense in that running scene I thought her hair was turning into a hang-glider to effect her escape plans... oh well live and learn - or don't as the case may be!
