ultimate marvel also had orson scott card write iron man and welpquote:The child, named Antonio (Tony for short), developed neural tissue normally found only in the brain all throughout his body, causing his entire body to act as one massive brain, giving him tremendous mental capacity. However, one of the side effects of the accident from the minute he was born was an extreme dermal sensitivity, making even the sensation of air on his skin feel like severe burns due to the over stimulation of neural cells in his skin.

Young Freud posted:He can't, at least in baseline Marvel. Nightcrawler really just teleports himself and anything or anyone he's carrying. He would be teleporting himself into a block of concrete in order to teleport you into it. As with most superpowers, it's best not to think about it too hard. I remember an old comic where Nightcrawler grabbed the arm or head of a baddy and teleported it right the gently caress off, begging the question why he wont do that with just about everyone who pisses him off. Also, does he have to make a conscious decision about how much of the person he is holding he wants to teleport? Like, when Nightcrawler has a bad day, could he forget to teleport your legs? Early on his power had the limit that he could only teleport to places he could see, which made sense to me. But then he overcame that limitation because the power was inside him all along or some such, and I've basically given up on thinking about it at all.

Bro Dad posted:ultimate marvel also had orson scott card write iron man and welp Yeah that was the only Ultimate Marvel I read and it sucked. I was all excited for Orson Scott Card but he really screwed the pooch on this one like he has every book after Ender's Game (though his short stories are awesome and excellent).

david... posted:but he could teleport next to a wall while holding you so you were in it and he wasnt or just teleport a mile into the sky and leave you there or hold out a sword and just teleport himself so its in your brain With my theory, and it's completely invalidate because of whoever is writing the book, the first example wouldn't happen because the wall wouldn't displace and you'd be outside of it. It would probably hurt, like having someone slam you into the wall, but would not be a instant-kill move. The second is totally within the ability of anyone who can teleport, I believe this happens almost constantly in the novel "Jumper". The third could be within the theory's speculation, but why would you do this when you can have Kitty Pryde do it easier? Honestly, the only person I've seen canonically kill someone with a teleport through the actions of the ability and not as the end result (like just TPing them in the air) was Magick kill someone by closing her teleport disk on them while they were half way through, cutting them in half.

Applewhite posted:Nightcrawler is too stupid to figure out to do these things is how. It's like the issue with Wolverine's healing factor allowing him to regenerate from a drop of blood. Once you put that in a comic, the genie's out of the bottle and you hope that the fans just forget about it. I guess the better way would be to have an editorial team that watches everything and has a bible on whose powers can do what, which is how DC's characters can have remain consistent. And whenever they do go off point, they just reboot the universe.

14 INCH SLIT posted:Ok nerds I'm sure one of you has a six page thesis ready to go, why does nightcrawler look like Beast Nightcrawler looks like a blue demon guy because he's really religious. Like, Russian Catholic or some sort of goofy form of Christianity. And it's a good character thing, that this really nice, very religious guy just happens to look like a demon from hell. edit: just to be clear, this was the orignal reason. Later on they decided "because it works with the character" wasn't a good enough reason, so now he's the son of an actual demon, which is why he has the tail and stuff, and his mom is Mystique. Which is why he's blue.

I really hope the x men and avengers worlds never crossover. It's just too much poo poo and the avengers barely make any sense when like half the population also has superpowers. It's stuff like that which make comics extra dumb and marvel/Disney has done a really good job of avoiding it in their movies.

i watched an episode of the 60s batman tv series today because it was on the local old people station. it was modestly funny and it was properly lit & sound balanced which is more than i can say for most super hero movies. i had a good time!

I think since all the movies are somewhat tied together, they should be comfortable killing off a few characters. Why on earth did Pepper Potts have to live in Iron Man 3? God the last 20 minutes of that movie were god awful

I believe they're going to use them to bridge the gap between the Avengers films and Guardians Of The Galaxy, since the Inhumans are actually aliens that have a history of experimenting on the human race (which is where the "NotMutants" superpowered people will come from).

No, you loving moron. The Inhumans are a strain of humanity that was created by aliens via genetic manipulation millions of years ago. Get your loving facts straight before you open your stupid mouth.
