GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Someone pointed out elsewhere that the mystery man who "helped" Kid von Strucker was a member of the World Security Council in the first Avengers movie.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Oh, that's why he looked familiar! I was wondering if he was a known factor in-universe, or I just recognized the actor from something else.

I glad that was pointed out, he looked and sounded familiar, but I didn't recognize him either.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I just recognized the actor from something else.

It's Powers Boothe, so a little bit of both, probably. I think I know him best as Cy Tolliver from Deadwood.

It's Powers Boothe,

The voice of Gorilla Grodd? (Animated, not the current Grodd on The Flash.) Cool.

Yeah, they did a weird music cue when they showed his face like we should know him, but I was clueless until I read who he was.

Yeah, I noticed the music too. "This means something!"

I feel kind of sorry for Kid Strucker. I'm sure he was a little shit, but one day he's living la vida loca on a yacht, then he's getting kidnapped by Ward Et Alia, thrown into an operation he wasn't prepared for, then beaten to death after being thrown under the bus by someone he trusted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Holy shit. I did NOT see that coming. DH and I both gasped when the Ex-Mr. May turned out to be Lash. Well done, AoS.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I just figured out where I had seen Kid Von Strucker.

Spencer Treat Clark was the son of Bruce Willis's character in Unbreakable.
