Current image looks more like a Berserk Button.: Woobie Destroyer Of Worlds

I'm fine with the current pic

re:poster 24:

"Nobody cares about me. So they can all just die."

So, yes. At that point, it was kind of "put the world out of its misery."

I just remember something. Wasn't there a Spiderman comic done by Linkara where Peter Parker is watching people make fun of him while sulking, and then some pages later he says something along the line of "I'll teach them not to mess with me"?

Will that work?

Somebody changed the caption to "In America, you break cutie. In Soviet Russia, cutie break YOU." Anybody object to me changing it back to "Never break this cutie. He just might break you..."?

Yeah,since it makes no sense currently.

Done.

While I'm not at all familiar with the work pictured, it gives me a clear idea of what this trope is about. Therefore, it does its job.

All I can see in the picture is either Beware the Nice Ones or Berserk Button. Nothing really shows the guy is a woobie, nor destroying anything out of his pain. I think it could use a better image, if its possible. It'd probably be harder to show the woobie destroyer unless he's actually destroying something.

Voting Keep.

Woobie is definitely there: he's saddened by the death of whom can only be assumed to be his loved one. And it's definitely not just Berserk Button, which is about characters raging about a recurring minor thing (which the death of a loved one definitely is not). I'd expect a Roaring Rampage of Revenge after the event shown in the image. So the image heavily implies a lot of things, even if it doesn't show them all directly.

Mr. Freeze? He is somebody everyone the world knows as a batman villain, and the image depicts him all alone, thinking desperately on how to save his dying wife.

If that's not a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds, I don't know what is

Good example. Bad image.

How about this one

Possibly I wasn't clear why it's bad. See: How To Pick A Good Image, Just A Face And A Caption, and Sliding Scale Of Image Pertinence.

Many readers will have no idea who that is or what his motivations are. Whether or not Mister Freeze is a great example of WDoW, those images show "woobie" only barely, and "destroyer of worlds" not at all. The page image isn't a place to give an example above the example line. Ideally it is a visual representation of the trope definition.

Clock is set.

I don't think this pic fits. I think that an image of the Once-ler from the 2012 movie would fit nicely. Example: during the "how bad can I be" song or the following scene. A caption could be " who cares if a few trees are dying"

Huh? Do you have a copy we can see?

I think the current pic gets the point across. I'll believe there is a better option when I see it.

Clock's up; locking for inactivity/lack of consensus. No action is to be taken based on this thread.
