March 29, 201114 yr Member Expect a shattering rollout in the coming weeks on the death of Jake front Talks about how he's a big drinker and had a few at the time of the accident, but won't admit he needs help Guza says they are going to call into question the entire legacy of the superhero that is Luke Spencer
March 29, 201114 yr Member Guza says they are going to call into question the entire legacy of the superhero that is Luke Spencer AKA Diminish it, play it down, act as if Luke never wanted it, and then shove him in the closet with his sister?
March 29, 201114 yr Member AKA Diminish it, play it down, act as if Luke never wanted it, and then shove him in the closet with his sister? yeah, I don't think tearing down our superheroes is by default a virtue. I want to see James Bond skiing in a tux while shooting bullets out of his lapel, not dying of cancer as was done to Robert Scorpio. Some characters are great for realistic drama, and some characters are great for escapism. One is not superior to the other.
March 29, 201114 yr Member I agree. I don't mind this storyline with Luke. In fact, I'm liking it. But I'm not going to like it if they use it as an excuse to try and pretend Luke was never a superhero. This man saved the world from being frozen. Now he's a drunk driving baby killer? Talk about a fall from grace...
March 29, 201114 yr Member I hate that Jason/Liz's son was killed off, but this is great storytelling. I feel like they dropped the ball with VM's return and couldn't conjure up anything as emotional as this over the past 6-8 months.
March 29, 201114 yr Member But this isn't Bond - where actors are conveniently replaced when they get too old to carry it off. This is daytime that allows characters to age, and quite frankly heros age badly in most cases. With their heyday behind them what do they have? Stories on a Friday night at the old Superhero Home? Take over the police force and never skirt the edge of the law again to bring down the bad guys? I'm a little excited for TG/Luke that he might be able to shuck that mantle. Who is Luke without that identity? It could be interesting.
March 30, 201114 yr Member Now there going to have to write look as something other than a lush. I wonder if they can do it?
March 30, 201114 yr Member i have a feeling that Luke really didnt do it...of course we will learn this after his 6 month vacation he takes lol
March 30, 201114 yr Member When was the last time Luke was a superhero? Haven't they spent almost 15 years telling us about Luke hating and regretting every decision he made since he moved to Port Charles?
