Are we pitching fake product ads for in-game background stuff, or you inspired by this to make a Pocket Dog hero?

I dunno

You know, a misappropriated Superman/Doctor Strange mash-up gormlessly hawking a product deliberately designed to dull the consciousness of its consumers having been made by AI is just spot on. Especially considering the amount of artistry using AI takes. Which, to be explicitly clear, is none. Really embodies some of the issues plaguing CoH's playerbase, too. Had this been an actual creative effort devoid of shamelessly plagiarized material - say an AE arc made in-game or a real piece of fan artwork - it could have been an almost poetic remark regarding the way some players mindlessly steal from their favorite IPs and regurgitate warped, watered-down versions of things they enjoy without regard to the creative process that made them in the first place, then scream and complain when said superficial counterfeits are rightfully taken away.

 

Instead it's just AI, so rather than being a commentary on those issues it just exemplifies them.

To be clear: why ruin people's fun?
