Worked for luffy. The stretchy people in hero comics are usually seen as side characters who are meh, even Reid Richard’s is mostly known for his intelligence over his stretchyness.
Mrs. Incredible has those dangerously thicc thighs
could she have just given herself a thicc ass using her extraordinary powers?
Primo stuff right there.
While he doesn’t get a lot of attention, PlasticMan is considered to be pretty dangerous in DC comics. He has a pretty cool run in the Injustice Comics (released alongside the games) .
In the Ultimate comics Reed actually uses his stretchyness to make himself even more intelligent by creating new wrinkles and pathways in his brain with his powers. He fixes his astigmatism too by just stretching his eyes back in the right shape resulting in better than 20/20 vision. It’s kind of weird comic book science but I think it’s a cool evolution of stretchy powers, truly controlling and manipulating the plasticity of his body on a conscious level.
Yea that’s actually dope, I love taking mundane sounding powers and pushing them to the extreme.
How can Superman’s power of creating a miniature Superman from his palm be made into a cool power and not something he doesn’t even have anymore because it was lame?
Super-Skrull can be pretty effective when he’s not jobbing to the FF.
Tbf, that’s Oda’s imagination doing overtime. Reed Richards never gets past the Gum-Gum Pistol stage, I think his power would be considered way cooler if he hit Dr. Doom with a Gum-Gum Elephant Gatling or busted out Snakeman. It’s not just about making them a serious main character, mangaka seem a lot more inventive with utilizing the potential for powers than their Western counterparts.
Yea I attribute it to the audience. Manga evolved as a mature and mainstream medium that wasn’t just for kids. Comics, at least back then didn’t evolve as much and as quickly. Video games as well until the last handful of years.
this rubber band man erasure right here /s
This applies to Western comics in the way where they tend to have used a campy version of the power in the 60s and have to grapple with what that means later. Like when Marvel gave the villain “molecule man” the power to control all molecules then were like “fine yes, also he’s a demi god who can essentially control all things and has the combined energy across all universes to splode reality”
be me
dnd campaign
ask dm if i can spawn bubble gum
he agrees and I leave party to give out gum on streets
dm gets mad and has my family killed while I entertained children
if I can’t be the good guy then I will be the had guy
right also applies to comics… when written by grant morrison.
Right is Jojo
CAESAAAAAR
Left? Dont you mean right?
Ah yes right, my bad i was probably half asleep.
Misfits did it (basically)
Lactokenetic powers where the best thing I have seen on screen. To bad the second season never happened.
Misfits got 5 seasons, but being a UK show they only had like 6 eps each.
I refuse to believe anything after the first season was not another much worse show.
Yeah true. I liked a couple of the new characters but I wish they hadn’t just kept cycling through new powers. Feels like with the freedom to change the fundamental premise they started with it let them focus on lower hanging fruit stories than trying to create deeper plots with the established story.
Also by changing up the characters/actors you just can not really care since who knows if that character will be around.
First thought was grand fromage
