Hey. I was thinking that the main image of the trope was more of "Adaptational Badass", since the two pictures were from different comics. I was thinking of using this picture below since it has a character become more badass within the same franchise. And we could use the trope's old picture as the main one for Adaptational Badass, and move the current for Adaptational Badass into the anime section of the trope. What do you guys think? Here's the picture:

To replace the image you should start a new thread in the Image Pickin' forum as it says in the source for this page

Just for funsies, should we quantify Badassery, and then determine what constitutes a level in Badass?

Nah, people will go crazy with it.

Would there be a problem with adding Taken A Level In Badass as a redirect? It's often more grammatically convenient to pothole it that way.

Done and done. "Takes", "take", and "taking" were already redirects, so I figured one more wouldn't hurt.

'taken A-level in Badass' isn't quite right, grammatically. Although I might be wrong - I've always assumed that by 'A level' its referring to the British qualification, e.g., 'He took an A Level in Politics'.

Late reply, but Maggie M is right, as far as I know. That's why it's a capital ‘A’.

People obviously saw “took an A level in badass” and thought that the “an” was the result of a typo. I think that “took A-level badass” would be the least confusing correct rendering (compare to “He took A-level politics”).

Invisible Woman single-handedly defeated Red Hulk and Magneto? When did that happen?

Any other potential page images? Like ones that aren't a major spoiler?

The old Sokka picture seemed pretty good, so we could go back to that one.

I second in wanting the Sokka picture back. Provides a good example to the trope

What about the picture on this t-shirt? http://www.threadless.com/product/2094/We_ve_Got_Some_Work_To_Do_Now?utm_source=cms&utm_medium=email&utm_content=We_ve_Got_Some_Work_To_Do_Now It's non-cannonical, so it's spoiler free, and it's pretty awesome. I'm not sure if there would be copyright issues, tho.

At least put it on the Western Animation Subpage.

BTW where is that sokka pic?

Anyone else think this page should be divided into sub-pages?
