Useless: The Fighting Narcissist

• There's nothing to indicate that he is a narcissist
• We can't actually see his face
• Despite the claws, he isn't doing any fighting
• Just A Face And A Caption

What we need for this is a two parter, with someone alternately admiring themself and fighting.

He's striking a pose.

He has a good body.

He's slashing with the claw and spraying blood everywhere, as far as I can see.

Think it's a lot better than 'useless'.

Seems to me a wrestling example might do the trick. A "wrestling ring" setting would get the fighting idea across, even if the image itself was just the guy preening or whatever.

(Wasn't there a Looney Tunes wrestler villain who was a riff on "Gorgeous George?" I have a picture of such a cartoon character in my head, but the only wrestling guy I can find is an "ugly bruiser" type who tangled with Bugs Bunny.)

Having a good body doesn't indicate that he takes pride in his appearance. Just look at Kratos.

Fair point.

Alex Reid will have some good pics. Lookin thru em now.

As both a Cage Fighter and ex-Hollyoaks actor...yeah. Fits the trope well.

EDIT: Oh and Big Brother contestant...wow.

Starting to wonder why I can't find any that show his Narcissistic side well.

Just put in a screenshot of any of Vega's winquotes that show off his narcissism from SSFIV.

A pretty◊ Marine (NSFW site).

Yes.

What about an image of Yumichika Ayasegawa?

If you can find a picture to suggest it. I do think the description could use a trim though.

[1]◊[2]◊ Zhang He?

BTW its a guy...

Zhang He is perfect. Especially the second picture, with the pretty butterflies.

Suedenim, you're remembering "Ravishing Ronald". He's not in character lists, because he was a one-shot — Bunny Hugged is the only cartoon he was in, and he wasn't the main antagonist — he was just there to set up the fight between Bugs and The Crusher.

Of course, there's Gorgeous George himself. I did find one of him preening in the wrestling ring, with his valet standing by.

I like that one. A crop to zoom in a bit would make it better I think.

Despite being black and white, it does show a fighter quite clearly being narcissistic in action. It works.

Thanks for Ravishing Ronald, Madrugada - that one had been bugging me (so to speak.)

I like the Gorgeous George picture. I found various pictures of him that "sort of" suggest the trope, but that one does so perfectly.

Captures of Ravishing Ronald (that hosting site's speed is about 2 minutes for every 5 seconds of film....)

^^ Yeah, that site is slooooooooooooooooooooow. But it produces good quality screencaps.

I like that dude. I don't know who he is, but he's obviously a wrestler and he's obviously primping.

I Agree. Not only the photo is perfect for the trope, but it shows the original Combat Narcisist getting ready.

Vega (OP) fights wearing a mask so his face doesn't get scarred. Not defending, just clarifying; agree that the image is JAFAAC.

Go with Gorgeous George.

Done.
