TheFallenEvincar posted:Does he have gadgets and tons of contingency plans like Batman? I thought he was just Murderman. Yes, believe it or not. All of his contingency plans basically involve making sure no innocent person ever gets killed by him when he goes on a bad guy kill-spree (it still happens, but I think his official innocent kill count is still in single digits) And if you count every conceivable bladed weapon, firearm, or other military piece of hardware "gadgets" then double yes.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's also made a habit of snagging dead mobster wallets and cashing out their bank accounts.

I'm looking for something I've seen posted in at least one iteration of this thread. It's Frankenstein('s Monster) fighting some kind of deity of decay and disease and death, and the disease god is puzzled that he can't simply consume Frankenstein, and the response is along the lines of "I'm neither alive nor dead, I'm SCIENCE." It's way better than I'm making it sound.

Lurdiak posted:DC stealing from Marvel? Neeeever. To be fair, Man Thing first appeared in May 1971 and Swamp thing debuted out in June 1971. This feels a lot more like a whole X-Men/Doom Patrol scenario rather than the Distinguished Competition swiping from Marvel. Especially since there's only two months between the their first appearances.

Yeah I'm sure Len Wein just completely forgot about the Man-Thing story he wrote when he co-created Swamp Thing 2 months later. Total coincidence!

Gaiman cited it as a major influence on his work, specifically Sandman. Everyone should also read the post-humously published Infernal Man-Thing, which is loving amazing.

Yeah, it's good. The only problem with the series as a whole is that it ties into Animal Man and Swamp Thing's Rotworld event at the end. Only whereas both Animal Man and Swamp Thing both continued, Frankenstein's book got canceled, so it just kinda... ended in the middle of a dystopia.
