that is heartwarming, and awesome. One internet to you Friend.

Tell him about Zoom.

Now teach him to say "MY PARENTS ARE DEEEEEAAADDD!"

I dont mean this creepily. I love you and your cousin. That is the most adorable heart warming thing i have ever heard.

Teach him to run around in underwear

Awww.

My cousin loves Transformers Animated and Avatar.

I'm so proud.

>>4787402
That is just adorable, man.

Now I'm all heartwarmed 'n shit. :)

>>4787392

Thank you. Good story. Thanks for not trolling it with something really gross.

My two-year-old niece and I play with those little Marvel dudes, you know? They have Transformers, TMNT, Indiana Jones and Star Wars ones.

Thor is her favorite Avenger. She runs around with him going "Its FORR!"

>>4787468

Damn you I d'awwwed

Now teach him about the Punisher!

who's your cousin, Yotsuba?

>>4787468

Yeah, forgot to mention that Optimus Prime has officially joined the Avengers and Thor uses his lighting to knock all the pillows off the couch.

Thats adorable.

How does you cousin understand the concept of "superhero", yet has not idea who Batman is?

When/If I ever have children, they will be raised with Loony Tunes. Not whatever flash based dribble they show on Nick Jr.

>>4787495
My cats have been telling me about Thor and the pillows, but I was sure they were just using him as a scapegoat.

Damn that Thor... he's everywhere!

My seven year old nephew was looking at my Marvel Legends, and pointed out Iron Fist. he said "Hey, Iron Fist, he's cool!"(he has the Sider-man: Friend or Foe game with Iron Fist in it). I felt so fucking proud.

that was pretty... 'sweet'?
'tender'?

So far, I've only taught my nephew the names of the members of Gorillaz; which barely reaches /co/ territory.

It's a work-in-progress, but good start, no?

OP here

YOu know what really made it perfect? Amazingly, after we were done playing, I managed to find Batman: TAS on tv. We watched it with my laptop open because he wanted to see the picture again and I spent the entire episode explaining to him repeatedly that the Batman on the computer and the Batman on the tv were the same guy. I was just beginning to show him all the different iterations of Batman before his mom decided that he needed to go to bed.

This almost makes me wish I had some young relative to teach these things to. But I hate kids, so I'll just d'aww at this from a distance.

You're doin' the Lord's work, OP. Nicely done.

>>4787409
ZA WARUDO!

Me and my brother used to do that, he died 2 years ago from AIDS...I really miss him right now.

>>4787392
>>4787468

That's adorable. I hope I have kids that make me that proud one day.

here's some more d'awwww.

That's just the most monstrously adorable thing I have ever heard.

I hate you. And your little cousin.

how cuute
i teared up just reading it.

A small exerpt from a conversation between me and my 5 year old cousin.

Cousin: Molly! Are you playing a game?

Me: -pauses video- No. Watching a cartoon.

Cousin: Oooh. What is it? I haven't seen it before.

Me: Spectacular Spider-man. It's pretty awesome.

Cousin: Who's the guy with the red hair?

Me: Norman Osborn. He's a jerk, but a redeemable one.

Cousin: I don't like him already. And the guy with the glasses?

Me: Otto Octavius. He's pretty awesome.

Cousin: Why's he got tentacle things? Is he one of those X-people you told me about?

Me: No, he's a scientist. The tentacles help him with dangerous experiments.

Cousin: Do all scientists have tentacles for dangerous experiments?

Me: No. Only Otto. Because he's just that awesome.

Cousin:.. He's kinda cute.

Me: I knew you were related to me.

I then restarted the episode so she could watch it with me. She's hooked now, it's adorable.

>>4787468
>>4787495
I d'awwed, and d'awwed hard.

That was totally awesome. You're the cool nerd uncle.

d'awwwwwwwwwwww

>>4787612
What? No, that's too much. Your 5 year old has the divine spark.

>>4787612


why am i not surprised?

I was visiting my young nephews, and decided to wear my hat. As I was leaving, the 5-year-old one of them called out "Byebye Inspector Gadget".

I was so proud.

>>4787612
You know when a five year old says Doc Ock's cute she's gonna a fine young woman some day.

Reminds me of a /v/ related story with me and my nine year old cousin.

I was playing KotOR II, on board the Ravager, pillaging the lockers while picking off enemies. She walked into the room and asked me what I was doing. Now, I probably should've worded it better, but what I said was:

"Stealin' stuff."

"Why? Stealing is evil."

This caught me by surprise, and it took me a few seconds of thinking to explain myself. Especially considering I was playing a Light Side character. Eventually I just copped out.

"It's not like I'm stealing real things. These are just computer programs. Besides, they're evil. And I'm about to blow the ship up anyway."

She just goes, "Ohhhhh" and runs off to the kitchen to get something to drink.

D'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW

I wish I had that kind of bond :( I got him to read some Batman, so when we watch TDK, I can actually talk to him.

When my cousin was 8 I had to explain to him that I've seen Spongebob, Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, and Dragonball Z before he was born. And I watched boy cartoons. :D

>>4787612
Awwwww... give them the ol' mad scientist fixation early. That's what was done to me and I'm all the better for it!

>>4787665
Years from now, she'll justify armed robbery with a mental, "It's not like I'm stealing real things. These are just xxxxx. Besides, they're evil." And then she'll blow something up.

My six year old brother is developing quite nicely:

-He LOVES Spectacular Spider Man.
-He knows-by heart-what the three pieces of the Triforce represent.
-At three years old, he was addicted to Queen's 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. Seriously--he couldn't talk yet, but he mumbled along with it and head-banged along with the main guitar solo, complete with devil horns on his hand.

I can't understand a thing my younger cousins say half the time and I think I scare them.

I remember playing guitar hero with my (now) ex-girlfriend's younger sister. She's an adorable kid and always got super excited and blabbed about liking Naruto. She was awesome because I always wanted a younger sibling. D'aaaaaw /co/ you totall made me miss her.

I dawwwwwww'd.

>>4787392
I DAWWWWWW'd

>>4787701
You should've seen how freaked out she was when he was trapped in the reactor thing.

Cousin: H-he's gonna be okay, right? There's no way they would hurt him!

Me: Uhhh...

-ZAP-

Cousin: -whimper-

Me: Awww, don't worry. He comes out okay! Crazy, but okay.

Cousin:... He's a bad guy, isn't he?

Me: An awesome one.

>>4787738
He couldn't talk at 3? Is everything alright with him?

>>4787738
I did the same thing with my sister. She's played videogames with me since she was old enough to hold a controller, and recently she's been reading through digital backlogs of comics on my laptop.

I knew things had come full circle when she told ME when BLSM was being relaunched.

>>4787787
It makes me proud that we're making comic nerds of the future.

>>4787766
Now she'll go for the baddies, and thanks to you! I wish I'd had an influence like you as a kid.

>>4787787
D-did she say 'Bitches'?

>>4787813
Yes. Yes she did.

>>4787738
I had lost hope in this up and coming generation before reading this.....

>>4787813
/Awesome/

>>4787786

Well, he could...just not a lot of things.

Had to hire a specialist, actually. Don't worry though, now he never shuts up.

>>4787820
Oh wow, you've done well.

>>4787809
Heh. I figured out early on the that some of the bad guys look prettier than the good guys. Like Sedusa from PPG, or Queen Beryl from Sailor Moon.

>>4787495

Yeah, I think it runs in the family for me. I also had a cousin or was/is obessed with Spider-Man, one day he, in his spider-man suit, (being like 5 at the time) climbed to the top of the refrigerator somewhere and was about to swing off! Luckly I came by and got him and we swung around the room together.

I was babysitting like 6 of my cousins that day (I have like 30 cousins in totaly, around the same age, it's crazy). And one of them comes up from the basement with those Hulk gloves on and finds my Spider-Cousin and then just punches him in the face. We told him "NO!" and he goes "What do you mean? Hulk can smash anyone! Spider-man too!" He was like 6 too, I felt pretty proud.

ITT we DAWWWWWWW

Memories of my childhood:

My older cousins telling me that the Power Rangers smoked (which for some reason, disturbed me to no end).

>>4787901
Memories of mine consisted of:

You fuckin' nerd.

Ah, yes. Those were the days.

I have a story that will either make you dawwwww or rage

I was watching Spectacular Spider-Man on my computer, while my cousins were over.

The 5 year old, a boy, comes up and asks me what I'm watching. I tell him "Spider-Man, do you want to watch with me?", and he replies "Nope! I don't like Spider-Man!" and proceeds to play with some Barbies and Polly Pockets we've had in the house since my sister was young.

Later, when i asked if he wanted to play a video game, he said "No, I don't like boy things."

Little queer.

>>4787901

That happened to me too!

I remember walking by a group of highschool kids one day and they told me that under this bridge we were one, there was this monster who would eat you and shit you out.

They were obessed with the butthole part of the monster. I just remember thinking "When I go to highschool, I hope I'm not as dumb as these people."

>>4787901
Mine was like this:

Random kid: Batman could so beat up Spider-man!

Random kid 2: No way! Spider-man would know exactly what he would do before Batman did it!

Me: Nah, they'd team up and beat whatever supervillain team they were facing. Like, Joker and The Green Goblin, or Doc Ock and Mr. Freeze...

Random Kid: ... That's dumb.

Years later, and I still want Doc Ock and Mr. Freeze to team up in the coolest (ha, ha) crossover EVER.

>>4787964
He wants to be FAAAAAAABULOUS when he grows up. Nothing wrong with that.

>>4787964
If he wants to be the mommy when playing house with the little girls that drag him around, you know there's something off about him.

>>4787980
Oh Eureka, you're so cute.

If I had a cousin/younger sibling like some of these, maybe I wouldn't hate kids so much.

Best I have was a young cousin that latched to me like a parasite, making me beat stages in New Super Mario Bros. for him and play that game's multiplayer the moment he saw me with my DS.

I was even having difficulty explaining the basic concepts of a Mario game to him.

>>4788001

whaaaaaaaaat

>>4787980
If he turned out like Leeron, I'd have no problem, because he's only flaming sometimes, and is actually pretty awesome.

but my cousin is ALWAYS doing gay things. He dresses up in girl clothes, pretends to be a girl, plays with girl things, doesn't like to do anything boys like, etc.

the worst part is, my uncle is a bit of a redneck. I hope the little faggot will grow up alright. I don't want to have to hear how little Dylan had a sex change and is now... Dylan. But a girl.

>>4788038

Aren't rednecks usually...against that kind of stuff?

>>4787998
he plays with his older sister (9) sometimes, and she says "ok, you be the brother!" and he says "Noooooo!"

funny thing is, while the girl isn't a tomboy, I could definitely see her becoming a lez later on.

I blame their whore of a mother.

>>4787392
Manly tear

>>4788064
what an understanding fellow you are.

>>4788062
That's what I meant.

I hope the fact that he may be gay doesn't estrange him from his father more than it does already, and possibly fuck him up.

My uncle gets SO pissed when he catches Dylan cross dressing.

>>4787873
LOL

>>4788038
You should totally tap that. Dress him up as Katie Power or maybe Toph and fucking go to town on that ass. Treat him like a real lady.

When my brother was maybe 5 or 6, I introduced him to comics. What I had was a few issues of X-men and Wolverine, so he got into the X-series in a big way. Now he looks up to me for comic book lore, despite me looking to /co/ for comic advice and recommendations.

I also influenced my then 7 year old sister to get into comics. However, her favorite hero has always been Captain America. She has more Cap stuff than I can even imagine now. She raged hard at Cap's death in Civil War.

Now my brother is 13, and we're still close. He has now officially been converted to Deadpool, and most of the 'Pool comics I read are his. My sister has given up comics, sadly, but she still worships Cap. She can't wait for the movie to come out.

I have my cousin reading Ultimate Spiderman, his mom's boyfriend is a transformers fan, and I have been giving him marvel adventure comics since they were out under their old name.

My friend has these cousins that are about 4 and 6. Ever since the first one could talk we've been mentoring them.

When we visit them we always play something superhero related or TMNT. Hell the 6 year can beat the shit out of me in Mortal Kombat

>>4788085
Ohyou.jpg

>>4788072
I don't mind gay people, but I dislike faggots. I believe that while Dylan may turn out gay simply because he's born that way, he could become a fucking annoying screwed up flamer due to his parentage.

>>4787998
I grew up playing house all the time. Always wanted to play Mega Man or Batman or something, but NOOOOO, we gotta play house.

I lived in a neighborhood were the only other kid my age was a girl. I DID NOT CARE FOR HOUSE.

>>4788161

I played house all the time as a kid. I usually ended up being the pet, though. Which was cool, I got to pretend to be a Pokemon while everyone else was stuck being a human.

>>4788161
While playing house, you should've named yourself Bruce Wayne. Some kid did that when I was in Elementary. He grew up to be a lady's man, go figure.

I have a four (or five, I forget) year old niece who likes superheroes and super robot anime. One time she started crying in a Wal-Mart because my mom bought my nephew a Marvel superheroes coloring book with foldout poster, and her some shitty Kung Fu Panda thing. And my mom was all like, "lol no, you don't want a superheroes poster, your room is all pretty and pink! You like pink things!"

lol at adults telling kids what they like. :/

>>4788200
>"lol no, you don't want a superheroes poster, your room is all pretty and pink! You like pink things!"

I'd give that kid permission to throw a temper tantrum after that.

>>4788189
When I actually did get to pick the game I'd always choose Batman. I was Bruce, she was Barbara.

I grew up to like men. Go figure.

>>4788204

Ah, yes. The fun and entertaining game of pretend devolves into "NUH UH 'CAUSE MY GUY CAN DO THIS."

>>4788006

I think it's about the parents. I'm the guy who's niece likes Thor, and her parents are huge comic/movie/videogame people.

>>4788204

Did you just make that? If you did, that's fucking awesome. If you didn't, that's still awesome.

>>4788200
Did she actually say it like that?

I read through the entire thread, and I couldn't help but smile.

Perhaps... perhaps the future of comics and cartoons isn't so bleak after all...

>>4787964
Oh yeah, rage, how dare he not like trite spandex action bullshit? His parents should beat the sissy out of him, amirite?

>>4788231
I hated shootan games like that.

I SHOT AND KILLED YOU.
NU UH YOU MISSED BY A MILE.
YOU WERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME I EVEN TOUCHED YOU WITH MY GUN.
WELL I CAN BLOCK BULLETS.
YOU LIAR.
YOU'RE LYING, NOT MY FAULT I MELTED YOUR BULLETS.
YOU JUST SAID YOU BLOCKED THEM.
I CAN DO BOTH SO HAH.

>>4788256
MANLY TEARS

>>4788233
Yeah, my dad grew up on the sixties Marvel cartoons and comics, and my mom watched Adam West Batman and stole the comics from her older brother to read. Apparently, the first time they met, they argued About who would win in a fight, Superman or Captain America.

>>4788290
How is that even an argument?

reminds me of new years day of this year. i was on a flight back home and i spent the entire flight watching the first futurama movie and 2 Venture Bros episodes on my phone with this little kid in the seat next to me. i explained the shows and he was actually a pretty smart kid. and after i recliened to get some sleep (10 hour flights suck sometimes) his dad started reading Tintin to him, which was awesome. i cant wait till my baby cousin is old enough to teach him.

>>4788283

See, we were playing Pokemon when it happened to me.

YOU FAINTED
NUH UH, I USED FIRE BLAST
FIRE BLAST HAS TERRIBLE ACCURACY, AND I USED ROCK SLIDE ON YOU FIRST
I DODGED THEM
THEN I DODGED YOUR FIRE BLAST
OKAY THEN, I USED SUBMISSION
IT'S NOT VERY EFFECTIVE
DANG IT

>>4788290
Oh man.

>>4788290
You have the most awesome parents ever.

>>4788249
No, not really. But sometimes even when somebody says something different, you can tell what they -mean- and are trying to avoid saying.

>>4788324
I have no friggen clue to tell you the truth.

my niece and nephew

Me: Eh pretty girl. Whatcha watchin?
Niece: Avatar. Katara just kissed Aang! But I don't think she liked it.
Nephew: kissing is gross. Uncle wanna play hulk with me.
Me: ok. am I Hulk?
Nephew: NO I'M HULK! YOU'RE REY MISTERIO!
Me: lol. ok. You want to play pretty girl?
Niece: no. Avatar is better than stupid old hulk.
Nephew: No hulk ish way better!
Niece: NO AVATAR
Nephew: NO HULK
Me: I think their both good!
Niece/Nephew: NU UH

they then argued over which is better. For an hour. they were 4 and 6 at the time.

>>4788361
/co/mrades already!

>>4788361

In before Randy Orton, for some inexplicable reason.

>>4788361
Awesome. A bit sad. But awesome.

>>4788361
Did...did he call her a weeaboo?

>>4788340
Mom watched BTAS with me. My dad worked a lot, so he couldn't watch 90's Spider-man with me, but my uncle did when he came to visit.

"Uncle Rudy, is Electro Red Skull's son in the comics?"
"Nah, just some random dude struck by lightning."
"Oh. Does he have the lame mask?"
"But of course."

>>4788376
you don't even realize how proud I was. they didn't even hit for a while (my nephew brought out the Hulk hands and I had to break them up.)

>>4788361
lol they'd fit right in here at /co/

Who was that one villainess from Power Rangers Turbo? She was hot.

>>4788361

ask her about Zutara

>>4788421
Divatrox, Divatox, something. Reminded me a lot of Kristen Johnston for some reason.

i love this thread so much

>>4788204
>>4788231
>>4788237
Holy shit, someone saved that.

Awesome.

>>4788256

Yeah, but notice how these are all our cousins and neices/nephews...


We're yet to find another human being willing to mate with us...

>>4788448

But if she supports Zutara, he'd have to murder her. It's better to have a "don't ask don't tell" policy.

Me: *reading Spider Man comic, when I say to my 13-year-old /co/mrade brother* God, One More Day.

Brother: Yeah, I know.

6-year-old sister: What?

Me: *sigh* Well, basically, Spider Man and Mary Jane aren't married anymore.

*long pause*

Sister: WHAT?

Me: I know. Sucky, right?

Sister: That's so duuuuumb and sad. Mary Jaaane. Stepheeeeen. *wibble face*

Me (Stephen): *notices sad face* Um. Um um. You want to read some old comics?

Sister: *pause* Kay.

We proceed to read the Spidey origin story (which I've got scanned) plus the original Vulture story. I think I may have recruited her.

>>4788421

DUDE! The Turbo movie was on last Saturday, I was at a friends house and it was on (for his kid who wasn't watching it) and the chick was pretty hot, she wore a two piece, and this fly landed on her leg and she snatched it up with her tongue...

She had a huge fucking tongue! You can imagine the things can do with it?!?!

>>4788488
Well we ARE talking about passing on /co/ to the younger generation. No mates have to be discussed, but if you do have a girl/boyfriend story to share, then by all means...

>>4788488
I've seen a few people with kids on this site, and I know one chick that's married...

>>4788502

That's it. We can say it now. We have concrete proof. OMD was so bad it made little children cry. YOU HEAR THAT, QUESADA? YOU ARE MAKING LITTLE CHILDREN CRY.

...I wish I had a story of my own to relate, but the only applicable person would be my 11-year-old cousin, who is currently obsessed beyond belief with Naruto.

I was at a familly reunion recently. My same-age cousin, knowing I was bi, started dropping hint's as to maybe being a homosexual as well. After uncomfortably browsing myspace and youtube for gauche gay pride things, I finally managed to escape.
I then rushed to the sides of the underaged, 10-years-younger-than-me sisters of said cousin and began comparing pokemans. I felt like a dirty pedo later, but at least my cousin never got a chance to hit on me.
Thank goodness for pokemon.

>>4788550
kill him. its for the best.
reading this thread, its safe to say that in the end, we'd make great parents. weird right?

>>4788448
She doesn't ship. My nephew on the other hand... He had Rey Misterio marry my nieces barbie. Thank you for making me remember that.

Nephew: They're getting married!
Me: lol. can I watch. .
Nephew:OK. Dear people you all here today to watch these guys get married. Do you take barbie to be your bride. Do you take the best wrestler ever except maybe john zena. You can say something if you don't like them. No? Ok. You may now kick the bride.
Niece: Its kiss the bride dumb butt!
Nephew: gross. *He then has rey mysterio drop kick barbie. I lost my shit at this point.*

my brother was amused was laughing like a mother fucker. Then we watched avengers 2. My nephew was shocked at a black hero.

>>4788508
>>4788488
I was going to counter with the guardianon story from the archives but I see they deleted it. I didn't even know they did that to things that have been archived for a while already.

I'm teaching my seven year old brother about comics. I really should read some with them.

I think the happiest I've ever been with him was when we went out of town to visit my parents friends. We were at dinner with one of my parents friends, Steve, and this little Captain America plush toy I keep in my purse fell out. My brother picked it up and said "Steve, meet Steve."

I was so proud.

And today he came home from his karate class and said "We went to burger king and I got you this, cause I know you like Tony." and gave me these Iron man sunglasses. They're way too small for my head, but I wore them regardless. I was so proud of him.

>>4788597
Damn. That's one fight I would've watched on PPV.

>>4788615
OMG your cousin is so thoughfull at a young age! :)

>>4788597
>best wrestler ever except maybe john zena
I hope your nephew gets hit by a car

>>4788637

What are you, a Rey Mysterio fan?

>>4788637
eh fuck you. He's little.

>>4788653
No, but Cena is awful.

requesting archive

I remember I was at a friend's house for a party and his little brother was there (I don't know how old, enough to talk, but not completely coherently). For some reason another friend and I were the only ones around with him and he had a Spiderman action figure.

For about 15-20 minutes he tells us this whole story about Spiderman fighting this giant fly.

It was totally awesome.

>>4788665
he also like Carlito. I don't know who any of these are except for Mysterio but only because his name is bad ass and he wears a mask, and he can fucking fly.

>>4788713
hoepfully he gets bells palsy

>>4788713

Oh God, I bet it was.

>>4788508

He meant no one has kids....

>>4788721
>>4788665
>>4788653
>>4788637
What the hell are you guys talking about?
