Shifty Leader

That M2k2 guy

I'm disappointed you put Metroid 2 instead of Return of Samus, and the Zero Mission reads as Mission Zero to me, but I also read "AHEAD STOP" on the streets. I also read it as "STOP! A HEAD!" The goggle-lenses look uneven. It's also stretched vertically. Did you mean to do that? It makes certain bits look misshapen.

Other than all that, it's pretty good. Not as complex as the previous image, but still quite precise (even though it has many adjustments from any of the Varia Suit models so far).

I thought of putting in "Return of samus" on the picture but the thing is this guy I drew here isn't samus and my friend would probaly find it kinda wierd so I just called it Metroid 2 and pretty much every metroid fan must know what Metroid 2 is anyway.

That'd be the right thing to put anyway-- the game is called Metroid II. "Return of Samus" is a subtitle that's optional when naming the game in conversation.

No, the game is called Metroid II: Return of Samus. Return of Samus isn't a subtitle, it's part of the title itself.

Saber, a subtitle is generally what's after the colon in any title. It can be dropped and not matter. In "The Matrix Reloaded", "Reloaded" is not a subtitle because a) it's not after a colon, and b) without it, the movie would be indistinguishable from its prequel. For Metroid II, that is not the case. You can drop "Return of Samus" and be fine.

Also, look at this:

and just try and tell me that's not a subtitle.

Which is of course why 90% of the time people say The Empire Strikes Back rather than Star Wars V.

Yeah ... that's because when it was released it was entitled "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back", not "Star Wars II: The Empire Strikes Back", nor "Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back". People had to call it "The Empire Strikes Back" for the same reason as I stated above concerning The Matrix Reloaded.

there's no reason why one couldn't regularly refer to something by its subtitle

Never said they couldn't; I was merely saying that "Return of Samus" is not more correct than "Metroid II", and the fact that it was not included in that piece of art is not an issue.
