Forum:Validity:The universe's greatest assassin(...)
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
Opening post
I think this one is rather open and shut. Doom turns and looks to the camera, describes her situation, and asks you to join her on her journey. The Trip of a Lifetime precedent applies, it should never have been created as valid. See the closing post at Forum:Temporary forums/Inclusion debates speedround about the distinction between Trip and other ways in which people turn and talk to the screen. (Since we have these shiny new forums, I figured we should use them for this and do it properly.) Najawin ☎ 20:49, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
Discussion
I don't personally object, but I would like to suggest that we might be missing some context here due to the incomplete nature of the Doom's Day series. On its own, I think the trailer should not be valid. But surely there's context for a Rule-4-by-proxy rationale in the future? What if in a future comic, Doom records the message we see in the trailer and broadcasts it to the galaxy? ETC.
I invite others more familiar with the material to contribute. Personally while I am amused by the existence of this series I have not enjoyed what I've seen. OS25🤙☎️ 02:31, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
