Dude could make a living as a construction supply vendor, if nothing else. Good oak is hard to come by.

Nessus posted:Yeah, that's one of those powers that you can't use to fight or perform crime but which would make you a very wealthy person. It'd be hard to fight but you could maybe stealthily dismantle hamper organized crime if you were smart about it. Being able to turn strong wood into weaker wood means you could maybe destroy their buildings. Of course it'd be easier to just get rich and bankroll crimefighters.

Someone needs to cash out the insurance on a building? Whoops, suddenly all the wood turned to balsa! Then back to hardwood after the smoke clears, and you're gone and they're none the wiser...

Wood Boy could save the rainforest. That's superheroic enough for me. E: wait, I guess they also cut the rainforest down to make space for farmland. Hmm.

Mister Mind posted:He's Wood Boy, not Rain Man. Your avatar reminded me of the payoff to that last page I posted in the bad rear end moments thread. So a villain named Horde (whose body is made up of leeches) has seized control of the Vicious Circle, the super powered criminal organization running the scene in Chicago. Powerhouse, one of the members, questions how he came into power. Savage Dragon #39 ruddiger fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Apr 25, 2017 |

Discendo Vox posted:In what world is clock king useless? I'll give this a bullshit fanwank theory. This Not Batman probably only sees villains that are obviously capable of causing serious damage as useful, and ignores abilities and skills that aren't immediately obvious how far they can be taken. Unlike the actual Batman who doesn't underestimate anybody.

purple death ray posted:I haven't read it but from what I gather Injustice is mostly about alternate worlds where superheros are sometimes jackbooted fascists and killers It's just one alternate universe in the first game at least. Every hero except Batman (who is apparently too awesome to ever be a villain) and Green Arrow (who got killed when he dissented) decided that a one-world police state government meant everybody would be safe. My bet on fake Batman is Damien Wayne, there's already precedent since he was alt-universe Nightwing.

Not every hero, just enough of the heavy hitters. Off the top of my head, Batwoman, Black Canary, Martian Manhunter, Jason Blood, Constantine, Detective Chimp, Dr. Fate, most Green Lanterns, Captain Atom and Plastic Man all fought against the regime, it's just that it's really hard to go against fascist Superman, Flash, and Wonder Woman without getting killed or at least seriously injured. Plus, a fair number of people on Superman's side are just loving scared of him, like Aquaman.

Plastic Man just decided that it Wasn't His loving Problem and after rescuing his son went to live in a quiet cabin in the mountains or something. (Of course the real reason is that designing the rigging for a playable Plastic Man would be a complete bitch and a half.)

Pureauthor posted:(Of course the real reason is that designing the rigging for a playable Plastic Man would be a complete bitch and a half.) Was Plastic Man actually planned as a character for either Injustice? The sequel's got Swamp Thing and Scarecrow both packing moves that would suggest they solved the potential issues in rigging Plastic Man, but he himself isn't there. Speaking of all this, can I ask how the Flash's costume looked in the comics? The weirdly-armored suit looked pretty wrong for him in the game, but maybe it worked better on paper.

Oh yeah, the game's stupid and instead of an insurgency it's just Batman, Secret Agent Lex Luthor, Harley Quinn not helping much, Deathstroke, and the Good Guy Dimension.
