lol that backstory's great. It'd be like if people said the gamma bomb was a dumb idea and Bruce Banner just walked into work the next day with a nuclear warhead. Oh yeah, and if Bruce was just a reporter.

I will also accept that answer.

I also like that he's positioned the throne so his crotch is at eye level. It probably adjusts automatically to the eye level of whoever seeks audience with him.

No, you're thinking of the Omega Sanction, which is when he goes to your house and kneads all the you-shaped dents out of your sofa with his Fourth World arse.

I have a question about that and I know this isn't exactly the right forum for this, but did those arm stretchy things actually work for building strength and muscle mass?

Any kind of resistance training will. Will it give you that Charles Atlas body like they advertised? Unlikely.

If you literally only care about one specific muscle getting bigger, ten minutes a day is probably enough

you could probably stretch it a bunch of different ways for an hour and get a pretty thorough arm/shoulder/upper back/chest workout

I wonder if some comic nerd has a YouTube channel or blog or something where they found a 1950s era work out book and equipment and just recorded themselves working towards the new body Charles Atlas promised.

Seems like it would be good content if no one has tried it.
