Katana and The Swordsman


 The  Swordsman was introduced in the Disney+ Hawkeye series, and I hope it isn't the last that we will see of him in the MCU. We saw Katana in the DCEU, but she was very underutilized.  Let's hope the character gets more of a chance to shine down the road in the DCU.

On an unrelated note, how about Bart Simpson & Cricket Green; they’re kind of similar characters.

Good grief! The Gun Hands are back!! Well, I guess it just goes to prove: you should never bring a sword to a gunfight.

I weirdly like sword wielding characters in superhero stories. It doesn't necessarily make sense (guns basically trump swords in the real world) but it is kind of cool. It wouldn't work in a more realiatic genre though.

The FGG (Foreground Gun Guys) always have to learn the hard way.

Hopefully the Swordsman will be back for season 2 of Hawkeye... or, given the MCU version's more comical twist, Ms. Marvel.

Nice work today; Ross! And to all the other commenters: Am I alone in thinking that Ross should make "Foreground Gun Guys" and/or "FGG" one of the labels he puts on his posts?

The Swordsman has his first appearance in this blog. He used to gadget his blade and wondering if he still does it.

Great cover. Love Katana… How about the Parasite taking on Amazing Man at some point?

Shouldn't DC's Prez have been on this cover, yesterday? Perhaps being defended by Capt. America?
