The Question/Awesome: Difference between revisions

 

* When [[My Real Daddy|Dennis O'Neil]] began to write the Question monthly series he had the title character [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|defeated]] by [[Dark Action Girl|Lady Shiva]], beaten afterwards by a gang of thugs, [[Boom! Headshot!|shot in the head]] and then [[Left for Dead]] in a frozen river. The [[Big Bad]], Reverend Hatch, explains that "if he arises singing ''Danny Boy'', I shall give him anything he wants." When the Question makes his return [[Took a Level In Badass|after training with Richard Dragon]]...

** "I want you to pray."

* A later O'Neill issue has Hub City being hit by a huge crime wave, even by its standards. One encounter that the Question has here involves an innocent bystander being held over the edge of a skyscraper by a gang of thugs. Question: "If you drop him, you follow him." The poor bystander is dropped. The Question then proceeds to kerbstomp all but the actual one who did the dropping, and knocks him over the edge, leaving him hanging by his fingertips..."I told you what would happen if you dropped him, didn't I?...Bye." He then actually starts walking away...only to abruptly return and save the thug. But then: "One thing." *WHAM* "Don't thank me." *SMASH* "Don't EVER thank me." *MEGA-KERBSTOMP*. He then walks away from the thoroughly whipped gang leader musing to himself, "I'll never be played by Chuck Norris. Or Charles Bronson."
