Magneto's powers work on all metals, even if they're not magnetic. "Metal" doesn't mean anything in nature. It's just an arbitrary categorization humans made up. The only logical explanation for this is that Magneto's power restrictions must be psychosomatic. Why would his natural, biological evolution powers be bound by human language? English isn't even his first language. So here's my big event story concept: Magneto has a telepathic mutant (Quire? Doesn't matter who) manipulate his thoughts so that he is absolutely 100% convinced that all elements are metals, and holds the Earth hostage. In one issue he tears Hulk into individual atoms, but Hulk's atoms get so mad they re-form. The good guys win when a bunch of super geniuses invent a new element, and Magneto's ignorance of it means he can't control it and they use it to punch him in the face. It's highly unstable though, so whoever wears the Infinitum Gauntlet is sacrificing themselves to the incredible radiation. Nobody who is immune to radiation volunteers because every event needs a body count.

Wheat Loaf posted:Reed Richards would confront him with a wooden gun, and it would leave Magneto so spiritually and mentally broken he agrees to come quietly. Reed Richards is gone, and nobody can replicate the technology of his wooden gun.

A bunch of places say it started with the Silver Age rewriting of his origin but none has a specific issue.

Yeah Superman isn't especially resistant to telepathy either.

A magic sword that is infinitely sharp due to magic can cut Superman. A magic sword that's simply on fire should do nothing.

Also to go back a few steps, Superman is often depicted as not especially resistant to sonic attacks either. It makes sense, since if you find Superman's frequency you're causing his body to vibrate and tear itself apart. Similarly Superman should also be vulnerable to aikido.

Well, he is. They found the photos on his computer. The only reason they use that uncertain language is because he hasn't been convicted yet.

Wikipedia cites a 1959 Mxyzptlk appearance bringing it up and implies it's not the first time in that one either.

Just put an I in each pair and it's close enough. Mix yiz pit lik Benito Cereno posted:I have the issue Wikipedia cites, so I'll look into it as soon as I feel like waking up my cat out of my lap so I can get the issues in question. Well that's a very thorough answer, wow. I bet Wheat Loaf didn't expect that.

Every time I think of playing that game a bit I load it up and remember how limited the customizing is.

END ME SCOOB posted:The big issue is there's a fuckload to play with in the costuming... If you find the styles. And some of them led you down some miserable loving grinds. Yeah, and they're not account wide. Also apparently it's impossible to make a name these days. Not only are they all taken by now but the creator has bugs and can deny even available names to you.

Luchadore masks are sacred, you can't just go put one on because you want to. You have to earn it.

Looks like Loot Crate did an Action Comics #1 reprint for this month. I wonder if they'll include that on the official sales list. Loot Crate comics are always automatic #1.

It's still the same Hank Pym so you're not wrong to still call him that.

It's okay to punch fascists even if they don't personally identify as nazis.
