Does Not Illustrate: You Are Who You Eat

The current image shows Kirby eating Mega Man and obtaining his abilities instead of becoming a human/robot/cyborg/whatever he's supposed to be. In short, it shows another trope entirely. I suggest this image◊ from a comic book of [PROTOTYPE].

Opened...not sure what to think about this one.

Going by the descriptions the tropes can in fact overlap, but it's always better to have an image which doesn't to avoid confusion. The OP is a good improvement on that front.

The Op is better for the Kill and Replace trope.

That. The cartoon image illustrates the trope well enough to my way of thinking.

That cartoon is good for Kill and Replace, yeah.

It's dubious to me what happened to the victim in OP. Killed or assimilated?

Both really. He absorbed the guy (Killing him in the process) but also got his memories and a bit of his personality.

I like the idea of putting it in Kill and Replace.

Agreed. It'll do better in Kill and Replace.

As for this page's current image, I'll go for Keep Until Better Image Suggested. It still conveys the trope somewhat.

+1 to put the suggestion on Kill and Replace.

for OP to be used for Kill and Replace.

I agree with 9's sentiment. Use the OP to illustrate Kill and Replace, keep the current.

That's enough consensus to put the pic on Kill and Replace, so it's up and tagged. Anything else for this one?

I personally don't think it needs a caption.

Unless someone can think of something witty, I'm fine with no caption.

Oh man, I remember seeing in a cartoon in a book (7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens or something like that) that shows a boy whose upper body looks like twinkies saying "Maybe I should lay down the Twinkies". I thought that was a perfect demonstration of this trope, but I can't find the image. XP

Anyhow, I'm on board with everyone else's opinion and go with the OP being good for other trope.

I've got a question, where do I put the image source? It's from a comic but it's about a videogame, plus we don't have a specific article about said comic book.

Redlink to the comic, IMO.

^^ A Red Link is fine; it encourages contributors to make the page, and it automatically turns the existing links blue when that happens.

Well, it's acting as a redirect to the videogame. I might make a page for it one of these days.

The pic on You Are Who You Eat needs to be potholed to Brawl in the Family and the comic needs to be put on the page as an example.

Potholing image right now.

Also, it was listed, but it was grouped with the respective Video Game example. Going to break it off into its own example. Helps that I have some familiarity with that webcomic.

I changed the source because it was linked to Kirby and not the Webcomic.

Edit: Disregard.

Wait, I'm talking about the image source page not the trope.

Ok
