Everything about Simon and River Tam. I adore platonic love stories, I feel they are far underrated and underrepresented. The saga of the Tams was a beauty to behold in no small part to their deep, genuine undying love for one another.

I just read the final chapter of the Power Ranger Shatter Grid series, and I have to say this could have ended by introducing Lord Zedd into the Boom PR universe. I would have liked to see the other sentai heroes like Beetleborgs and Kamen Rider show up as an extended universe. This is why I liked about Tobias' PR fan series as it made the other shows cannon, even the Masked Rider crossover was meant to be a spin-off but they reconed everything of the Power Rangers out of the series. I've wanted to see a Lord Zedd/Count Dregon battle happen.

I love when platonic bonds of friendship are as celebrated as romantic love. Platonic love is just as powerful and often more longlasting. Some of my favorite examples are:
Beast Boy and Cyborg. One of the highlights being Beast Boy risking his life to save Cyborg from himself during the Titans/JLA crossover.
Booster Gold and Blue Beetle, with Booster literally tearing time apart in because he can't bear to live in a universe where Ted is dead.
Jean Grey and Storm, Storm allowing a young Jean to have full access to her mind in order to comfort her by letting her see their shared memories.
Literally any moment between Kitty Pryde and Illyana Rasputin.
The cinematic portrayals of Hawkeye and Black Widow and Captain America and Bucky are also very high on my list.

I see that I liked a certain story moment that no one in the comic book world would ever did....THE DEATH OF ARCHIE
One of comicdoms most famous deaths was Archie Andrews'sacrifice to save Kevin Keller who would be our first gay president from a assassin's bullet. This is one of my favorte alternate stories, as we see a icon we read as kids die and to never come back like in superhero comics. Archie may be a clumsy goof but he did have heart.
I also read the recent issue of Spectacuar Spider-Man, where we see the world of Spidey as a documentary. But it's the B side of the story I won't spoil that will tear up guys up. This is why I like Spider-Man stories that aren't just about him and the villain of the issue, it's him and the people of the city that care about him outside of JJJ's hatred of him and other costumed heroes.
There was one moment in Batman during No Man's Land where Batman was going to reveal his identity to Jim Gordon, but he told Batman to leave the mask on. Years later, Barbra revealed to her father he was Batgirl all those years.
Back to Spidey for a minute, as I like Aunt May finally knowing Peter is Spider-Man, and this would happen in the USM cartoon and in Homecoming. I'm not going to spoil what happens if anyone. hasn't played the PS4 Spider-Man game yet.

Since I seem to post a lot of Doctor Who moments here:
"Why do you keep calling me madam?
"Cause...uh...you're a woman...?"
"Am I? Does it suit me?"

She has been one of those Doctors that clicked for me, the moment she showed up.
Aside from that outfit...

She dresses like the girl companion, rather then the Doctor. She looked so much better in Capaldi's hand me downs...!

“Greetings and Bienvenu~” One of the many inspirations for my writings and the show that got me into the silver age of comics; The Secret Saturdays, a cartoon revolving around a family that prevents the weird or fantastic from going into the hands of evil. The evil in question is the sinister mastermind and possible yeti; V.V. Argost, an intelligent Yeti determined to assimilate into human pop culture and rule the world of cryptids.

I've seen that show and it was a great show that deserves a revival as a new TV series or comic book. Maybe you can do a Secret Saturdays series for Every-Verse.

After watching the Back to the Future trilogy with my own, little Sabrina-Ripley over the last few days, I have been reminded of far too many of my favourite story moments to list here, but one in particular always manages to get me in the feels.
When Marty and Doc Brown have their picture taken together in front of the Clocktower after it's first been turned on (during their time in the old west), the moment manages to be both so understated, and poignant at the same time, that I always feel inexplicably sad every time it happens. Especially when Doc gives Marty a framed copy of said picture at the very end, before saying goodbye.
Amazing movies and, fittingly enough, they have survived the test of time.

The bit I love is when Marty sees the bulletproof vest and when he calls Doc on the whole 'not interfering with history' and Doc Brown gives him that smirk.
"I figured, what the hell...?"
