To Be Hero X #16 — Road Trip

July 19th, 2025

 

We're all crying about it.

Impressions:

Are we really continuing on with this awful schtick? Oh, christ. Now this dude is saying that he's going to be the wingman for helping a 40 year old dude try to hook up with his daughter's friend? We're really, seriously doing this? For how goddamned long? The answer to that is unfortunately about two thirds of the episode, as it isn't until Dark DJ shows up to this time make everybody sad instead of boogie, except Ghostblade who's immune for some reason. And then just up and die. At least this time he remembered that he has the power of punching and took a couple swings, but Ghostblade effortlessly just made lines appear on the screen and the dude's goo-limbs popped, regrew, popped, regrew, and then it was time for the episode to end. 

So I guess this is the end of Ghostblade's arc then? Seems like all his stuff is resolved unless those droplets of bad juju were meant to have been on him, but pretty sure he would've been splashed the last time too. His daughter found his diary conveniently explaining everything, verbosely and explicitly. Really seems like the lowest hanging fruit in the world would be to have her confront him over stalking her after realizing it was all way worse than thought and maybe even thinking he killed her father, only to have the epiphany. But that would be Futurama level writing, and we're too busy making bad incest jokes for multiple episodes in a row.
