Young Justice: Shirtless Boys in Tubes

Here are a couple of caps from Auld Acquaintance, Young Justice's Season 1 finale,  in which we see a semi-shirtless Match (another teen Superman Clone) & a bare-chested Roy Harper (Arsenal) in suspended animation tubes. I swear they do this on purpose to make the fangirls (and some of us fanboys) squee. And I love them for it! So to the writers of Young Justice: Thanks for giving us beefcake (and cheesecake too!).

A really hot amputee, never saw that before, this show's really covering all fetish base, huh? ;)
LOL, you so naughty, Dan! XD

You jogged my memory with this post, there was one other fictional amputee I had the hots for and that was the X-Files' eternally untrustworthy but sexy Alex Krycek played by Canadian megahottie Nicholas Lea (who always had all his appendages in real life).
Krycek was an amputee? I didn't know that! It must have happened after I stopped watching.

There's another hot fictional amputee I just remembered. Poor Flash Thompson lost both his legs. Luckily he's now the new (heroic) Venom host, so he gets to have legs when he's using the symbiote.

Yeah Krycek got his arm cut off in season 4 by some peasants so he wouldn't be part of Alien DNA experiments in rural Russia (and that's about as simple as I can put it LOL!) The character had a prosthetic arm the rest of the show.

Roy lost an arm in canon. It's just that nobody likes that storyline because it begins with the League being reduced to a lynch mob. Again. And Ray Palmer's shrinking suits are weaponized. Again. Wait, this is just Identity Crisis, isn't it? Oh no, it somehow is worse: So, the villain wants revenge against Batman, but this is Dick Grayson, and he's visibly shorter and thinner than his father, so it's not like people don't know it's a different Batman; the people of Gotham even prefer the new Batman. And the Electrocutioner causes an earthquake in Star City, which kills Lian, leaving no property damage.

This leads into Rise of Arsenal. You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Anyway, Roy is a wreck, and everyone comes to Lian's funeral in costumes. This means Dick is the best-dressed person here, in all black and no fetish gear. Doesn't mean we won't get some Arrowdickery from Dinah and some Dickdickery. Roy is also an idiot, citing Dinah's sterility (and Barbara's?, assuming they even remember she's sterile) as why no one understands him. Yeah, Roy, it's not like Dinah raised you as her own son or the mother of your child entrusted her to Dick or anything. So, he fights Cheshire until they start having sex but he's impotent because that one scene made Watchmen. Then Roy starts doing heroin again, beats up some homeless people over a dead cat he thinks is Lian and normally I can appreciate Don Quixote humor but it's out of place here. Dick finds him, kicks him in the head, and forces him into therapy. Which is terrible. This must be the proto-Heroes in Crisis. Oh, and then Roy starts working for Deathstroke. All of which strikes me as "how to get Roy to be buddies with Jason" until Didio decided a reboot would be easier than working within the existing DCU.
