Title says it all. I'd love to find it because... Well, it's a good meme. And also I'd like to show it to friends. It has the phrase that sort of goes like 'this is hell on earth' because of the heavy burden of having the ability to choose (in general) puts on the person
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
Free for all!
R1: In Character
R2: Bloodlusted
Who would win in this free for all and explain?
please answer with this: Character>Character
Note: Sans KR/Attack would only hurt to the people based how many they killed, because killing more = higher LV, if they kill many people/monster, more than the population of monsters in the Underground, sans attack would hurt alot

>Going of the tangent into another topic, Watchmen today is often seen as the comic book that turned comics into darker grittier stories worthy of at worst good quality movie screenwriting and often praised as being the first comic book that is a genuine work of literature. It made it into Times' 100 Greatest Books of all time (a big deal for its time when comics were seen as Childish) and even snobby novel review publications such as Neon Books rate it as a good story. Basically people credit Watchmen for the shift in the 80s from generic cartoony superheroes to serious story involving very mature matters like rape and war. However diehard comic book fans argue that Watchmen's pioneering status is waaaay overrated. For starters they point out while it sold well, it was at most a typical bestselling series and lagged behind the big names such as Superman and Spiderman. In addition Batman stories and other stuff already began to explore stuff like human trafficking and suicidal versions of Peter Parker in deep depression during the same period independent of Watchmen. Most of the very dark 90s stuff came from authors who grew up with the original 60s and 70s superheroes thus not being primarily looking up to Moore for ideas. This isn't even counting foreign comics in particular Manga which have been doing adult stuff like warcrimes in historical genres, abusive relationships in romance, and other genres and non-English European comics where many works were political satire. Stuff American comics had long forgotten about before the 80s (and technically this isn't true per say-even the 70s "kiddy stuff" already had complex consequential themes and plotlines such as Gwen Stacy's death in the first incarnation of Spiderman). So basically Watchmen's impact on the comicbook medium is waaaaay over the top than it actually did despite it being one of the timeless classics.
Today I seen these two discussions.

Now before anyone accuses me of being a hater, I love love love Watchman. Its the work that got me into Western comics.

This is how I was saved by an Angel (Part 1)
As if 48 hours passing couldn’t cause more alarm in our offices, the shit hit the fan today.
General Drake had to disclose to our Commander and Chief what ‘Penthesil’ is… I could spend multiple posts describing the place, but the short is it's a city-state that designed advanced weapons for us for many years. Oh, and they’re all women.
Said city-state just went rogue on us, and now they’re replacing governments and making them go dark.
He’s shouting about nuking the place. The joint chiefs are on board.
Drake and I are attempting to explain why that’s a terrible idea.
So far no one is listening…
I don’t know how much longer we have. I’ll continue to explain how we got here, so sit back, because finding the angel was the tip of the iceberg.
Let’s pick up where we left off then, shall we?
...
I could not believe what I was staring at, or who.
The boy groaned as Doc laid him out and started to look over his arm.
Doc shook his head, “Major, he will bleed out if I don’t take care of his wounds,” he said reaching into his bag pulling out a tourniquet kit wrapping the strap around the boy’s bicep.
The boy groaned, “Ponáei…”
I looked to Lt. Malone, “Is that Pashto?”
“No sir, not sure what that is,” he moved towards the craft, peeking his head inside, “Hello? Anyone else in there?”
Doc began to tighten the tourniquet until he seemed satisfied that the bleeding had stopped, then wrapped up the kid’s arm.
“Anyone else inside Lieutenant?” I shouted to Lt. Malone.
“No sir!” he walked out, “not sure what make this thing is but it sure as shit isn’t American.”
Doc waved Lt. Malone over, “Help me with him, will you? Keep his feet high, need to keep the blood flow towards his head.”
I kept an eye out for anything else that could surprise us as we moved to load the young angel into the Black Hawk.
As we got him inside, Doc doing his best to keep the kid conscious, Higgs gave a shocked look.
“Does… Does that kid have wings?”
I moved to the pilots, “Let’s get going, stat.”
With that, we were in the air, and I was doing my best to wrap my head around who or what we were transporting.
It didn’t take us long by chopper to get back to base, and once we were there, we were unloading to the medical tent.
They took Higgs by a doctor, as Lt. Lopez and Doc carried in our winged savior.
Another doctor walked ove
