gameboy1234 Posted November 11 Author Share Posted November 11 What the power set really needs is a cool travel power. Something that just really screams silver age comic. Something that shows off how awesome the Silver Age was. Something that even a god would use. Something like... ...Space Skis (That's Black Racer btw, invented by Jack Kirby in 1971. Because of course Kirby is going to decide that the way to travel through space is on a pair of skis, complete with ski polls.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacke Posted Monday at 11:55 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:55 PM I mean come on! One thing to have Silver Age weirdness in comic books, which have limited pages and completely forget about the craziness by the next issue. Put that in City and it's here forever! Our Devs have enough on their plate, what with nerfing Regen and other things under consideration. Having them take on a Silver Age Weirdness Powerset will just break them! 😺 Remember! Let's be careful out there!

biostem Posted Tuesday at 10:56 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:56 PM I think the main issue, if we were to take this suggestion to its logical conclusion, is that every power would either be too specific in what it's a reference to, or too vague to really be anything more than a generic "smorgasbord" of quirky powers...

Techwright Posted Wednesday at 04:26 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:26 AM 6 hours ago, biostem said: Maybe not Silver Age, but worth a mention... As silly as that was, I always chalked it up to Kryptonian technology, rather than any power he possessed. With his dad the leading scientist of Krypton, I'd expect the rocket came packed with useful Kryptonian science and technology. Adapting it to be a quick peel-off and toss feature of his chest shield seems reasonable. The real problem was that it was a one-and-done concept. I don't believe it even had a Chekov's smoking gun build-up in the story. A bit more explanation or appearances would have moved it off the shelf of the bizarre. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
