Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

Member-takes handgun bullet to the forehead
-knocks him out
-gives him massive headache
-requires bandages
-takes point blank anti-tank round to the chest
-slightly torn shirt
-burn marks
If he collapses in the next page, we can say that his hide withstands it but he feels the internal impact.
Otherwise we got an asspull and inconsistent writer behind this (no, Pia is NOT writing the story, she's just doing the art).
Free Shavacado
BlockedThat would be the FlimFlam Bros mate
Also, it could be like the Placebo effect. He's enraged right now, and the last thing on his mind is pain, but when she's defeated (preferably dead) it'll come down on his like a building. Then he'll pass out

MemberIt could also be that he wasn't expecting to get shot in the head, while here we had time to brace himself for the impact. After all, adrenaline can make the body do some strange things.

Daneasaur
MemberIt still will fall into the category of asspull at this point since there was no point to him even taking a shot to the head from a handgun and "nearly being dead" if they are going to disregard that and have him shrug off anti tank shells.
Also, those guns don't leave smoke clouds. If he used the briefcase as a shield and it detonated, then it explains the smoke, but again, not how he survived, much less is standing instead of laying on the floor, knocked out. And adrenaline or not, being knocked out is being knocked out.
The Masked Newfag
BlockedCorrect me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the first gunshot he took (the one to the head) "nearly killed him".
In fact, I think we all (by "we" I mean anyone thinking his surviving the bullet to the head was just a lucky escape because of his dragon hide and bones) have been looking at Spike's physical durability all wrong.
The skin of the forehead is more susceptible to bleeding because there is very little fat tissue between it and the skull. This is probably why Spike bled a little from the wound (as Applejack said, a sufficient force can compromise the integrity of virtually any material-- in this case, a standard issue pistol round was enough to break the skin of Spike's forehead). Moreover, the brain is literally sitting right behind that layer of skin and bone. It's fairly well-known that any hard knock to the head can stun or daze a person, and if it manages to rattle the brain around in the skull, it can cause a concussion.
I think that this is exactly what happened the first time Spike was shot-- the bullet just barely broke the scaly skin of his forehead, but the sheer force of impact from the shot was enough to give him a concussion and knock him unconscious.
If that same shot had hit him in the torso (say, around the midriff or gut), it probably would've felt like a strong jab to him, but it wouldn't have even managed to scuff his scales, let alone break through them.
Likewise, in this second instance where Spike gets shot, since #00284 was aiming for Spike's torso and NOT his head (check the previous page, you can see it for yourself), there's a lot more (apparently) bulletproof skin, fat tissue, muscle tissue, and bone shielding Spike's body from that rifle bullet than there would be if she were aiming for his head.
In the case of #00284's anti-materiel rifle shot, however, there is (obviously) significantly more force imparted by the bullet when it impacts its target-- in this case, Spike's torso.
Therefore, I think it's safe to assume that while that bullet probably felt like a full-powered knockout punch to Spike's chest and left him winded, it still COULD NOT break through his scales. Granted, it probably hurts like hell for him, but as Wilde said, he's enraged right now, and pain doesn't concern him while his body's on an adrenaline rush and his blood is boiling with anger.
If anything, the pain is probably only adding fuel to the fire of his rage right now.
In any case, it looks like Top-heavy Whore #00284 is about to get her arrogant yet shapely ass handed to her on a flaming platter.
TL;DR
I don't think the shot to the head was a "narrowly escaping death" situation for Spike, but more of a "he got hit at a weak point on his body" situation. So the rifle shot to his chest shouldn't be any different.
