    Haven’t they also specified that Bruce is a blood relative of “Mad” Anthony Wayne, who fought in the American Revolution and got tons of stuff named after him? (Which I guess has no bearing on this...

    For me, it’s the red jumpsuit from his ‘Hank Pym, Scientific Adventurer’ days: he’s not a superhero who happens to be a smart guy, he’s a smart guy who happens to be a superhero — and with plenty of...

    IIRC, Helga Jace came up with the treatment that could grant superpowers, though only to members of the Markovian royal family.

    Scroll to the bottom panels here: Clark Kent makes his way through a bunch of globetrotting pulp-adventure encounters before finally winding up (a) having secured the plot-device medallion, and (b)...

    Is anything stopping Zatanna from walking around with repuS ssenhguoT on as a default? Or with invisibility and intangibility on, in tsohG mroF? Or whatever?
