Worth a shot
if you ever think mythology is boring or serious business or whatever shit
just remember that cerberus, the hell-hound and guard dog of the underworld, comes from the root indo-european word ḱerberos, which evolved into the greek word kerberos, which got changed to cerberus when it went from greek to latin
ḱerberos means “spotted”
that’s right
hades, lord of the dead, literally fucking named his pet dog spot
remember that time when maria hill avoided being shot by the greatest marksman in the world???
because i sure as fuck do
Not as knowledgeable about Hawkeye, but … Isn’t he specifically the greatest marksman with a bow in the world? And maybe with other manually propelled objects like knives, I mean he was (possibly in the MCU) taught in the circus. Even though a gun is still a projectile weapon, the math and the muscle instincts for how to hit something with it are different than with a bow. People have been pointing out that when he fires he looks like he’s drawing back an arrow. I’m assuming he’s just not used to firing guns because he was hired for his bow skills.
(Oh and Sassy get a theme that fucking shows your tags, I had to copy and paste from the url.)
It kind of goes back and forth in terms of what, specifically, Hawkeye is a skilled marksman with. Usually, it’s up to the writer, and whatever fits the story. In the Ultimate continuity, however, he is so ridiculously good at turning anything into a projectile weapon that it practically qualifies as a super power. He actually kills people with his own fingernails that he pulled out. Most recently, in the 616 Universe, though, he’s shown being utterly shitty at hitting things with coins, and I’m pretty sure at least once they’ve mentioned that the reason Hawkeye never gives up the bow and arrow for anything a little more “practical” is because he’s just not particularly special with anything else.
Lee Pace in final negotiations to play the villain in Guardians of the Galaxy yyyyeeeEEESSSSS
I kind of hope he’s playing Magus, because that would also mean he’d be playing Adam Warlock…
