The Adventures of Dr. McNinja

Oh right.

Ok, Talking Hyenas definitely. (that shit ain't right)

As that happened so recently (by our standards), it would be rather odd to have it suddenly come up here.

I wonder if the scene of Doc, injured and on the run, that was foreshadowed during the Time Travel arc, will show up here as a "fear" he has to overcome. That would be a neat way to trick that particular prophecy.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"

It's probably going to be something intensely personal, not just weird or dangerous.

For instance, my most major phobia is plants. Being exposed to Little Shop of Horrors at a young age left me with a completely irrational and intensely stupid botanophobia. I fear plants and the bodily harm they conspire to cause me.

By contrast, my worst fear? Well, right now, my worst fear is an abusive, drug-addled little parasite I had to throw out of my house once for violence against his girlfriend - one of my current residents - who recently turned 18 and thus got to have her not-insignificant criminal record expunged, kicked the drug habit, got a stable job, and was right on the verge of a normal life, but now has a boyfriend who is running her through the lovely "He only beats me because he loves me," gamut, has no job and mooches off of her, has zero aspirations, and spends all day getting high. Physically, I'm not intimidated by him at all; he's just a little shit. Despite that, I am terrified of this kid, because I believe he is going to ruin her life, one way or another.

Whatever Doc encounters, it's going to be in the same boat. It's unlikely to be just something that might cause him physical harm.

I'm scared of heights.

Also my aunt did all the makeup work for Little Shop of Horrors, I'm sorry

Oh really when?

I don't like shampooing in the shower because I'm always afraid somethings going to get me while I have to close my eyes.

Doc's worst fear is having to become a ninja because he couldn't cut it as being Batman.

It's funny you should mention. I got into Atomic Robo fairly recently, and the title character does fight an intelligent dinosaur. Well, more probably a genetic experiment that only thinks it's a time-traveling dinosaur, and that it's intelligent, but close enough. At one point, Robo has to calm himself down by telling himself that what's chasing him is just an Eldritch Abomination trying to make everything always have only been an extension of itself with a personal mad-on towards Robo himself, and not actually a swarm of bugs.

Rock on, I've also got Atomic Robo's TP Bs.

I love how exactly "WHAT" Dr Dino is is always up in the air.

Another day, another Negazone-induced hallucination

Moon◊

Oh goodness, I hope she's ok.

Oh really when?

Yet the hallucination has a point...

"Allah may guide their bullets, but Jesus helps those who aim down the sights."

Many times, they do, even if it's twisted somewhat. Doc is not exactly leading a lifestyle that is conducive to long-term, fulfilling romantic relationships.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"

So that's his greatest fear, huh? (I guess it's been vaguely referenced a few times.)

Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.

The notion that he might be a virgin has indeed been alluded to.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"

Deeply personal.

I bet there's more to come.

Heh, I half called it.

This isn't a very effective mental-torture dimension if it has to spell everything out for you. He'll walk into the next room and there will be a kid who yells "YOU ARE A BAD DOCTOR, I SAY THIS TO ATTACK YOUR IDENTITY AND SELF-WORTH".

The Nega Zone never claimed to be good at what it did.

Oh really when?

I suppose if you're meant to be trapped forever it doesn't have to be good at its job. "You suck" once an hour for the rest of your life would probably wear you down.

I could see a kid like that really existing in the Dr. Mcninja world...

I've got fanfics for Frozen, Spectacular Spider-Man, Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro the Dragon.

Frankly, enough of that Captain Obvious over-exposition and I'd be ready to strangle myself out of sheer frustration. Do we have a trope for that?

Fighteer Strangling Himself Out Of Sheer Frustration At Captain Obvious Over Exposition is currently a redlink.

"Dang it, the kid's back! JUDY, THROW HIM OUT OF THE OFFICE AGAIN!"

It's also too long to function as a title on the wiki.

More importantly, Fighteer Strangling Himself Out Of Sheer Frustration At Captain Obvious Over Exposition is an Omnipresent Trope. Ancient actually, it's Older Than Oral Tradition. I mean, people thought about Fighteer strangling himself over obvious exposition all the time but they didn't bother to tell anybody about it, it was an old hat even then.
