If I could draw I would help out. Alas I am one of the worst artists you would ever see. Keep up the great work. This thread is hilarious.

Seriously.
I think Technomancer would make a great mini-hero.
He'd totally be a bard.

He should be a shape-shifter, or have some sort of shape-shifting gun.AceBandage said:

Speaking of representing GAFfers in comic book hero/villain form... I just threw together this shitty MSPaint concept fingerpad sketch for a well-know GAF personality. It's supposed to be tongue-in-cheek, so no offence to the poster. 
-------------------
Comprised of 6 monitors capable of broadcasting information to GAFman at an astonishing speed and frequency, coupled with two highly advanced pincers that can interact with any communications device through touch alone, this infamous entity is perhaps the greatest information delivery mechanism in the world. However, when coupled with two Rapid Sorrow Satellites, or RSSs, he turns into something much more threatening- dispensing tragic news stories faster than the human (or even GAFman) mind can comprehend. GAFman does not see him as a foe, for the freedom to inform is a principle GAFman can believe in, but this machine's habit of mischievously bringing word of disgusting goings-on to GAFman can often impede our noble hero's quest for a peaceful forum for everyone. To avoid turning to drink, GAFman must use a concoction of Puns of varying wittiness to repel the tragedy of our oblivious messr, and continue fighting for a better GAFmorrow.
This reluctant foil is...
...Gaborn!
------------------------------------------
...Like I said, shitty concept. I was kinda going for a M.O.D.O.K sorta thing. Capable artists, feel free to alter it as you wish. Gaborn, keep doing what you do best.

I like Gaborn as the Jimmy Olsen esque reporter
Also spindashing needs to be like a black Viewtiful Joe or something

Working late one night at the chemistry lab, college student Gary Arman Fernando experienced a freak accident that gave him super powers beyond his wildest dreams! Thus the birth of GAF Man!
In an attempt to lead a normal life, GAF Man became a video game journalist. Little do his co-workers know his secret life of crime fighting and forum banning!

I said this in the last thread but one of the bad guys should have henchmen a la the gray guys from Power Rangers, but they should be those blue/red/yellow outline guys that are always drawn in pictures in i appropriate positions.

GAF-Man is comin' down to save the day,
GAF-Man doesn't even know what game to play.
Games on one side, off topic on the next,
His powers are the best, he always wins The Contest.
Never forever alone, but he's alone forever,
Juniors bitch and moan and epic threads deliver.
Red Fonts will pay for the pain that we receive
Always trust in GAFMan, NeoGAF: Believe.

His secret identity should be a secret to everyone. Even the writers of the comics.AceBandage said:
haha wow, this is incredible.nib95 said:I haven't drawn anything comic related in years, but this thread inspired me to give it a shot. Here's my random depiction of GAFman based on the OP's image. Changed a few bits and bobs, let me know your thoughts.
If anyone wants to go through the arduous task of colouring it (I simply don't have the time at the moment), feel free. Here's the hi-res original scan. It's scanned from an A4 page, so not the highest quality drawing lines, though the resolution is huge.

Also, something that I thought of while thinking of Kamen Rider Decade. GAFman should have form changes where he changes into different GAF subcultures.
For example:
PonyGAF-man: He shits rainbows and appears to be a super deformed pony. Used to sneak up on the enemy because no one cares about ponies.
BlackGAF-man: He's... black y'all! The women love him, the kids want to be him though this form owes child support.
GayGAF-man: Fabulous~!
CreepyGAF-man: Rather than fight crime, this form would rather want to stay home and watch Wizards of Waverly Place on the Disney Channel.
We could even have an episode/saga dedicated to these different forms somehow becoming independent and roaming the world and GAF-man has to bring them together. BlackGAF-man and GayGAF-man won't get along because they haven't suffered the same injustices and PonyGAF-man and CreepyGAF-man will attempt to destroy NeoGAFtopia.

Born Gabriel Vanhorn he was the son of Robert Vanhorn founder and CEO of Phoenix Telecommunications, a global powerhouse in communication technology development. When he was 23 years old and visiting his family for the summer holiday an assassin entered their residence and killed Gabriel's parents and shot him in the head. Gabriel did not die though, he was paralyzed from the chest down and was unable to speak. Angered by the events that occurred and the police's inability to find the killer drove him to take extreme measures to slake his thirst for vengeance. Using an experimental technology his father had been working on for a number of years before his passing Gabriel had himself literally plugged into the internet to utilize the full capacity of his mind to search the world for his parents' killer. While on his quest he discovered he had another ability and that was to scour the deepest and farthest reaches of the internet for news stories that he shared with those interested. Thus Gabriel Vanhorn died and from the ashes, like the Phoenix his father so loved, rose Gaborn!
I see him as sort of an Oracle-like character, but with a more neutral stance. He's simply helping GAFman in exchange for GAFman to help track the killer of his parents down physically.
