    Default Weird Things You Wonder About Characters

    Not a rumble. Just weird thoughts about various characters.

    Doctor Octopus. When he's in an incarnation where his harness and tentacles are not bonded to him, his tentacles lift him up. Why doesn't the harness slide up and break his jaw? Or, if the harness is tight enough to prevent that, wouldn't it be painful? When the harness is grafted to his spine and the tentacles lift him, wouldn't that hurt and potentially cause damage?

    Iron-Man. In the early days, when he had to always wear the chest plate and basically the whole shirt piece, wasn't there getting to be kind of an odor from his inability to wash?

    When the Human Torch made fire illusions, why did they not look like they were on fire?

    Feel free to please explain these or add your own crazy thoughts so I don't look so conspicuous.

    P.S. I know I'm setting myself up for a Pendaran roast.

    One should always let Brody handle roastings. I would watch the Tonight Show with him as the host.

    From the 90's. How the hell are Cable's arms the size of his waist, and why is his head so small. Also, what is holding Feral's "Liefield Corset" up.

    If you had to carry around guns the size of trees all day, your arms would be ridiculously massive as well! <_<

    Of course, somehow future tech means that massive future guns are only as effective as normal-sized present-day guns, but... bleh.

    Double sided tape would be a realistic answer for Feral's corset and any other gravity defying costumes.

    Haha, I laughed at the Doc Ock ones, I can see it slipping up and busting his jaw.

    As for Iron Man, yes, there was/is an odor. That is why he is known as Tony Stank!

    I think the real reason "Into the Spiderverse" went with a female Doc Ock was so she could wear a realistic harness that stays on but doesn't hurt like heck and end the possibility of any future liitle ocks when it lifts her.

    This may be just in the animated movies, but...what's up with that super long highway to Titans Island? That thing has to be miles long. Did the city pay for and build that? Why? And how many people take the wrong exit and end up having to drive ALL the way to Titans Tower just to drive ALL the way back to the mainland? How long does that take and isn't it aggravating both to the driver and to the Titans who keep noticing random cars showing up only to turn back around?

    I think grafted tentacles are just a part of his body and lifting him up doesn't hurt any more than using legs to stand up.

    Hey, we're whining and complaining here. Just go with it.

    Considering how often bad guys like to attack heroes in their headquarters, and also how destructive those superhuman battles can get, it was wise of the Titans to choose a location so far from the city. And considering how often the people in the city will likely need saving from the bad guys, it was wise of the city to build a nice highway for the Titans so they would have a quick way to travel to the city.

    And do the security devices in superhero headquarters work against the villains at least as often as they work against the very team whose headquarters it is?
