He goes back to the way he was before, and manifests whatever 3 things he happens to see.

Phy posted:Also that basically describes any Vancian magic character in a tabletop RPG. Like, wizards (or clerics, I think?) in D&D. Prior to 4/5e, at any rate. In 5e you prepare a set of readied spells that can be cast in any variety until you run out of spell slots.

Infinitum posted:This seems like a super overpowered ability His people blinded him because after his powers manifested he read Fahrenheit 451 which triggered a massive fire and killed everyone around but him. Presumably the only reason he's still blind is because he wants to avoid a repeat of a scenario like that and staying blind is the best way to avoid reading. He's brought non-existent people into reality... twice. Anyway...

The guy really oughta know better by now but I like Reed's complete lack of self-awareness as a character trait.

Infinitum posted:This seems like a super overpowered ability He can't control his power — it's the first three things he reads each day. And a lot of the time he does use his powers to "see", just via his dog, Forey (though Reader's power doesn't seem to extend to reading through other people's eyes). Relatedly: Do not gently caress with Reader's dog.

Not related to the fake Mike Murdock corpse that Matt used to bring himself back to life after faking his own death. The corpse was a leftover doppelganger from Infinity War.

I remember Mike getting "killed" to end that storyline, but Matt getting a hobo corpse or something is a bit grim for Lee... Rhyno posted:The corpse was a leftover doppelganger from Infinity War. Oh. The other time he faked his death. Matt Murdock sure does fake his death a lot. You'd think the New York Bar Association would have some questions about that.

Just this last weekend I was rereading The Death of Captain Marvel, in which Drax the Destroyer tries to comfort Mar-Vell by saying, basically, It's okay, I've died before, it's not that bad.

How can Superman stop the artist formerly known as Mxyzptlk now that he has the law on his side? Easy: He just makes an army of tiny supermen explode him from the inside out. Silver age comics: they're even weirder inside than the cover makes you think they are.

Honestly I'm a touch more weirded out by Superman saying "How come?" I know he's a farm boy and all, but still.

It is me, the Grumpy Shitposter of Comics Present. I kinda wish people wouldn't post panels from stuff the literal hour it drops, so maybe people could go read it unspoiled.

Golden age comics had some funny ideas about women.

Maybe just sit down Superman and tell him you don't like it when other ladies rub their thighs on his dick? You're his girlfriend, it's ok to feel that way. Or just take off the backpack.

Or take whatever 50 pound archaic battery they have in that thing out of it so it won't light up and ring a bell.

Superman hates jealous women but has a pathological inability to learn and know what makes women jealous. "Lois, you're not jealous I spent last weekend at the Fortress of Solitude with Marilyn Monroe, are you?"

Senior Woodchuck posted:Golden, silver, bronze, post-bronze, whatever the hell age we're in now... It's actually pretty easy to distinguish the different ages. If Superman's beating the poo poo out of gangster, fascists and politicians he's golden Age. If he's using super hypnosis to make you think his head turned into that of a lion while his robot duplicate is spanking Lois, *that's* Silver Age.

so those two wildly different scenarios are both silver age? that doesn't help at all!

If the art is kinda bad and what's happening is the craziest goddamn thing you've ever seen in your life, it's Golden Age.

If Superman is creating complex metal work and forming a Mediterranean spanning empire, it's Iron Age.
