I really shouldn't abuse that power so heavily.

Description

This comic references to the 1980's tv-comicseries (and Greeting Card subjects) “Care Bears” in which various cuddly bears in rainbow colors go on missions to save the world. The characters' ultimate weapon is the "Care Bear Stare," in which the Bears stand together and radiate light from their respective tummy symbols. These combine to form a ray of love and good cheer which could bring care and joy into the target's heart.

“Myspace” references to the social networking site myspace.com. Cueball is convincing Black Hat to create an account at this networking site, but Black Hat doesn't feel like it. Then, when Black Hat gets annoyed by Cueball's persuasions, he activates his “carebearstare”, thus overthrowing Cueball's request to be friends only.

Rikthoff (talk) The issue date is definitely off. Can anyone fix?

carebearstare :D 625571b7-aa66-4f98-ac5c-92464cfb4ed8 (talk) 01:21, 3 May 2017 (UTC) black hat said "care bear stare" quickly to become "carebearstare." (this is supported by cueball's "What?") that should probably be mentioned instead of just switching to carebearstare. 172.69.63.142 14:00, 6 September 2021 (UTC)Bumpf
