Samuringa posted:Deadpool himself does this to Wolverine in the first arc of Remender's X-Force when they're attacked by a mutant that drains him And I think he also feeds Angel that way, while they're both recovering from something awful that happens. The line that sticks out is him dropping a chunk of meat into Angel's mouth, telling him to chew, and for the love of God don't ask where that's coming from.

Lurdiak posted:Back in the day Wolverine's healing powers obeyed conservation of mass so he'd get really hungry when he was healing. I can never be TOO mad at regenerating characters except when it's a lazy excuse for slasher movie "monster isn't dead" style cop-outs to come back and beat/kill you anyways. Because anything more than the most basic regen is just signing up to be put through an increasingly elaborate Rube Goldberg machine of doom. ... Did Cyclops LET Wolverine be cooler than him, because he felt sorry for the guy getting his dick shot off by the Punisher?

The whole point of characters with regenerating factors is to get the brunt of the villain of the week's attack to show how damaging it is but without actually killing someone.

But regenerating from a drop of blood would leave him without adamantium, unless the few cells left are inside his skeleton like when he regenerated in Civil War.

What indeed IS Superman doing with a 'giant eating tool' on his way to visit a giant? I'm worried about the giant. Super man, super appetite.

Logan regenerating himself from scratch with the Adamantium still in place is relatively low on the scale of Weird poo poo that happens in that issue. A few pages earlier, Psylocke rips off her skin to reveal she's turned into a robot.

Is that also the time Jean Grey gets tentacles for arms, and just gets over it a few panels later?

Elfface posted:Is that also the time Jean Grey gets tentacles for arms, and just gets over it a few panels later? No, that's a few years later, from right near the end of Claremont's first run on Uncanny, and that lasted a full issue before getting undone. Basically, that was Masque from the Morlocks finding a fun way to gently caress with her, because the tentacles basically shut down her other powers, and underestimating how adaptable Jean really is. (Turns out that on the scale of Weird poo poo the woman has had to deal with, her arms being replaced outright is like a four.) The single-drop-of-blood sequence is part of a truly weird Uncanny X-Men annual with Alan Davis art, where the whole team plus Captain Britain and Meggan are put through a bizarre series of tests that attempt to entrap them by showing them their greatest desires. It's actually foreshadowing for Psylocke's later transformation, as her secret desire is to be a near-invincible warrior, theoretically impervious to harm. It's also notable for the sequence in which Storm's ultimate temptation is to go to Japan and party with Yukio forever, which has been cited for years as textual proof that Storm is bisexual.

A Strange Aeon posted:I have the Super Dictionary and it's really fun and strange. Besides the hilarious ones like Lex stealing cakes and whatnot, all of them have an oddness to them due to the theory of teaching words the author uses, where each statement defines the word in a slightly different way. My favourite is batman asking robin if he has hurt himself, falling down, and it reads like he’s mocking him in a sarcastic voice. I would have that panel as a poster.

It doesn't read as sarcastic to me so much as Batman manically, excitably going through his "person has fallen down" procedure in full without giving Robin time to respond. Also he's rushing towards him like a freight train while yelling this.
