    Elektra and other high end martial artists like the Chaste. Shouldn't be too surprising, since Moondragon and Mantis were taught by Kree kung fu style monks. Pretty much every sorceror- Using one's own internal energy for Charles Atlas psychic powers- telekinesis, telepathy, astral...

    Goblin was resurrected by the retcon that his healing factor was just that good. Ock was resurrected by the Hand.

    Kind of weird here. That's just how magic works in DC. So I would have expected Paul to have just assumed that demons can give out magic power from the beginning. Theoretically, absolutely anyone can do magic. With the caveat that most people don't have the mojo to make it work. So...

    While Zoat can certainly do what he likes, and has, traditionally Machine Man wasn't based on Sentinel technology. He did however become infected with Sentinel nanites like the human Prime Sentinels in his 1999 series X-51. So presuming that Rachel isn't being robophobic here, it's possible...

    This storyline amuses me. In an alternate future in Avengers Forever, Machine Man got his girlfriend Jocasta pregnant with a son. Only in comic books, would robot supersoldiers be built not only fully functional but apparently not shooting blanks either.

    Yes. 1 to 4%. But the Neanderthals have still been extinct for at least 40,000 years.

    In the bad future, humanity and the Sentinels teamed up to fight the mutants. The humans let the Sentinels use genetic engineering to win the biological arms race. The result was not humans but with superpowers. It wasn't transhumanism. The result was homo sapiens sapiens going extinct as...

    They aren't transhumans, they are post humans. Humanity is extinct in those bad futures. Humanity was so obsessed with not being replaced by mutants that they let the Sentinels design and produce their replacements.

    GURPS Wild Cards perhaps? Because that sounds like Carnifex.

    Just MCU. While there are certainly supersoldier horror stories in the comics, those were caused by such things as incomplete formulas or lacking vita ray stabilization, not the serum having a psychogenic effect on people.

    Doom was Iron Man for a while- Tony was dead and Doom's face was fixed. But Riri was pretty much the only person who believed he was being sincere, Tony came back from the dead, and Doom's face got ruined again, so status quo is god as is usual. However I don't think it really matter here- I...

    The Spectre has a a built in excuse for changing his personality- His host. Hal, while the Spectre, basically said "Vengeance? Screw that, we're now the spirit of redemption."

    From what I recall from reading about that story, yes, that was the point- By killing Darkseid the Spectre would be the next Darkseid. "The king is dead, long live the king." That wasn't the Presence saving Darksied, that was the Presence saying "Oh hell no, he's my Spectre, I ain't sharing."

    And mine is the time he crushed a four year old boy under a sea of coins because he took some spare change from mommy's purse. Folks, for those not that familiar with the Spectre, he is God's wrath. That's it. The host is what is supposed to provide humanity, empathy, and judgement.

    Did Zoat say she was Tamaranean here? Because in the New Earth comics which Zoat normally takes inspiration from, Tamaraneans didn't exist back then, the Psions hadn't invented them yet, X'Hal was an Okaaran. Anyway, she is a goddess in that she's worshipped by multiple species on multiple...
