![]() I love that this episode is basically what would happen if you posed that same question to Ryu and Chun-Li. Miraclewoman’s solution: “Excuse me, but couldn’t you have sex instead?” The two alien cultures begin to bond as a result, and find a new solution to their long-running war. ![]() Maybe it’s just because I’ve been revisiting Alan Moore’s legendary superhero comic Miracleman lately, in the wake of both Shazam! and Brightburn, but this episode reminds me of a sequence towards the end of that series when Miracleman and Miraclewoman learn that their superpowers are derived from an alien race that happens to be locked in cosmic cold-war stalemate with another highly advanced alien race. 'I can eliminate anyone, anywhere.' Joseph Carversrc Black Hole was created at some point after the particle accelerator explosion. The other central idea here is that we have fighting games, so why not sex games? Violence and sex are, after all, the two primal ways of resolving conflict between humans. 'You werent robbed by Black Hole you are Black Hole.' Iris West-Allensrc Black Hole was a crime syndicate associated with McCulloch Technologies and led by Joseph Carver, employing light-based meta-human assassins for their crimes. He remains a high-flying bachelor, but freely admits that having sex as Roxi (with his best friend on the other end) is the most transcendent sex he’s ever had. The answer for Karl is “not really,” but it does open him up to new experiences. Does that change you as a person in some way. One is the act of playing as a character with a different gender/sexuality than you, as Karl does with Roxette. The central conceit of this episode seems like a riff on two basic ideas about video gaming. ![]()
