Establishing Character Moment/Comic Books: Difference between revisions

* [[Captain America]] [http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/captain-america/1-2.jpg summed up real quick.]

* [[Batman]] first appeared on a rooftop beating up thugs.

** [http://forbiddenplanet.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/face-it-tigger-you-just-hit-the-jackpot.jpg Hilariously parodied in this Winnie the Pooh image], which was made ''[[Hilarious in Hindsight|before]]'' Disney acquired Marvel!

* ''[[Bookhunter]]'''s opening chapter is [[Batman Cold Open|unrelated to the larger plot]], and instead serves to set the tone of the story to follow. A SWAT team has been called in to deal with a freelance censor, and when they invade his apartment, they find the perp threatening to immolate himself and the books he stole; clearly, in this universe, books are [[Serious Business]]. Detective Bay's response to the standoff shows that, underneath his veneer of rationality, he is a [[Cowboy Cop]] willing to do completely insane things in his pursuit of criminals.

** Rorschach's opening narration provides a glimpse into his unstable mind.

** The first time we see Dr. Manhattan he is shown as a giant which [[Physical God|showcases his power]] as well as his [[Humanoid Abomination|truly alien nature to the rest of the world]].
