I generally don't mind philosophical shithead ProtoMan. I feel that in the comic at least, he's obviously using it as a distancing method to cover his own actions and insecurities, such as when he projects like an Imax onto Tempo. But I agree that he really does need more moments of levity to reflect that side of his character, such as "Try using the fire weapon in the woods, Mega Man." Yeah just do it. burn down the forest, try it. it'll be a larf.

There s a flip side to this though. Mostly inspired by Ruby Spears, TOTAL MEME PROTO is also very popular nowadays. I can't call that wrong, especially not for an RS portrayal, but I think Classic Blues should be a blend of philosophy and meme.
