Very weak image that relies mostly on a lot of barely readable text. The only argument that could be made in its favor is that Cap does have a vague look of conviction on his face, but I think we're better off pulling/replacing this one.

You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"

Agreed, Cap's dialogue seems to be talking about another trope besides this one.

Pull regardless of replacement.

Agreed. Pull.

Does this convey the trope?

You can't keep a good Batman down. [1]

There's a similar picture for Spiderman on Rise from Your Grave, but I think the Batman picture better shows off his Determinator status.

Panels 2+3 of 7 is nice [tup]. 10 is also good, but I'd rather go with 7.

Panels 2+3 of 7 are the best so far.

The last panel of 7 is on Heroic Spirit (of which Determinator is a subtrope).

...and is that a problem? I mean, the images in Summon Everyman Hero and So What Do We Do Now? are from the same strip, so I don't see why using the Spider-Man strip for two pages would be a problem.

... In any case, any other thoughts?

I'll go with panels 2 and 3 of the suggestion in 7.

Maybe I've been watching too much YTP, but that looks like semen is pouring all over him. Can't we find something a little less squicky?

You've been watching too much YTP. 17 looks fine to me.

Well, squick or no squick, I've since come up with an example from Sonic comics that at least looks cooler anyway. Only meant as a suggestion, of course.

EDIT: Huh, surprised Archie Sonic wasn't an automatic pothole to sonic comics. I'll try the proper way then.

Yeah, I'm not really getting the trope from that as much as from the Spider-Man pic.

The clock is up; 7.1 has some consensus, so it's added and the tag's adjusted. Locking up.
