The end of Wizards. The whole movie built up towards this titanic clash between the two mightiest wielders of magic in all the land, and BANG. All over in an instant.

Barrin's death in Planeshift.

Nothing says, "I'm sort of ticked off", like unleashing nuclear death on a whole island of those responsible for your daughter's death as her funeral pyre.

I always liked with Theodore Diggers went after Gowthrain for all the shit the skeevy little were-rat had put his family through.

Slighly more low key but the Maegi that ruins Dany's life in A Game of Thrones Kills her husband and unborn child destroys their clan.

I actually remembered wrong, he used that line in issue 4 of the color series in the flashback of the werecheetah genocide when he nearly punched Gowthrain's heart out. He does go off on him in a big way at the end of issue 69.

Also of note from Gold Digger is the Artificer's 'Millenium Pimp Slap' in issue 64. There's nothing quite like putting a dragon in his place by reaching from one end of time to the other, an unparalleled magical feat.. and using that to simply slap him upside the head as a show of superiority.

The fact that I have cool things like that to look forward to just makes me less patient for volumes 11 and after...

the hypothetical encounter of SDN's "Black Mages" (including the White Mage) vs. Marvel over the "Civil War" storyline and it's fallout. :twisted:

I mean once Red Dragon Typhoonis just shows up glaring down at Avi Akad....
