It was a pocket burger. Also Miles has pockets on his costume.

I still love that Molecule Man made God Doom fight Reed Richards fairly because neither of them brought him food, so that made them even. Doom could have protected his godhood with a hamburger, but was an inconsiderate jerk.

The fact that the final battle of a multi-year super storyline hinged on how hungry someone was and how nobody would give him anything to eat is one of the greatest things about Secret Wars.

Did we ever find out if it was really 8 years or just that doom wanted everyone to think it had been 8 years

Don't forget the important part though, the burg was in stasis or estivation or whatever for those 8 years

The burger survived the end of a universe.

God knows what types of preservatives they were using in the Ultimate Universe (though using all that money to develop preservatives seems like a waste in hindsight).

I havent read the comic in question, and its a long time since I've read anything with Molecule Man in it, but... He's molecule man, if he wasn hungry couldnt he have rearranged molecules from the air to make basically any food?

Doesn't he have some limitation about organic stuff? I remember Aron the Watcher trying to beat him by wrapping him up with tree branches (which panicked him until he realized they weren't real trees and turned them into paper). But then he's also created entire universes, so Idunno.

He overcame his limitations wrt organic molecules relatively early in his career. I assume he only had it in the first place so he couldn't just explode all the Marvel heroes who got in his way with a thought.

I kinda took it as MM being "everything" and therefore his hunger was for anything more, which could only exist from outside battleworld. So the burger was new content.

Wasn't it a plot point in the original secret wars that molecule man's inability to affect organics was just a mental block and Doom talked him out of it?

That would mean Molecule Man is Doom's boner.

Miles giving Molecule Man a burger from his pocket feels like something that would happen in a Marvel LucasArts game.

I think Doom laid his hand square on Owen Reece's forehead and cleared it up with his Beyonder-powers. Edit: Okay, not right on the forehead.

Selachian posted:I wonder if they had Doom lose his cape because the Secret Wars toy version didn't come with one. Secret Wars was a notoriously low-budget toy line. Mattel probably used that simpler Doom costume because they didn't want the expense of sculpting and mass-producing his cloak and cape, and I also recall a rumor that they didn't want some medieval-looking guy, but someone more robotlike. So instead, he got a "swimsuit" and a garter.

Shooter said in an interview that Doom got a costume change because Mattel wanted him to be more futuristic looking.
