    @DAZ0273 BRB is korbinite cyborg. He just has been modified to have less human face. The Korbinite themself arent equine race. I hardly consider him as a equine of any sort.

    Even though, we have far more feline or canine characters than equine in MPQ. Even if I stretch it, it would be... 2. BRB and Valkyrie (she has a horse). Not much to make anything special with it. So...

    So you are saying that the person who created Beta Ray Bill and is quoted as saying his features are based on being horse like...is wrong? I am fully aware that in his untransformed/modified form, Bill looks more like he is made out of a sack! But Cyborg BRB is neigh the same looking!
    You're arguing two different things.

    The fact that Beta Ray Bill was designed to look like a horse does not change the fact that he is NOT a horse character, and has zero equine themes the way Black Panther and Black Cat have feline themes.

    Nah, I think you are right matey - I shouldn't have jumped in with a sarcastic comment/joke, no harm meant. :smile:

    There are a lot of references of BRB looking like a horse. Those who have never seen BRB before might also mistake him for a horse. 

    During this year International Cat Day, Cat Scratch Fever vault had shards of BP, Kitty Pryde and Prowler. So, BRB doesn't literally have to be a horse. I'm sure no one mind having a vault to get BRB shards or having his feeder announced on whichever Horse Day they choose, if they decide to take this day into account.  B)

    Beta Ray Bill is obviously a reference to Mr. Bill, TV's famous talking horse from back when televisions were still in something called 'black & white'. Walt Simonson must certainly be a fan of talking horses, so he created one in Beta Ray Bill. A walking, talking, horse who was more worthy than Thor and took the Thunder God's hammer from him.

    So he most certainly is a horsy, long-snouted, alien... whatever-thing. But the most important thing you're all forgetting is that he's worthy.

    Wasn't that Mr. Ed the talking horse?  I thought that Mr bill was the little clay man who always got squished? I'm not super familiar with old TV shows, is there another talking horse show also named Mr. Bill?

    Mr. Ed?!? No, no, no, that would totally invalidate my argument.

    Some of you are trying to undermine the upcoming National Horse Day celebration.
