Mad Scientist Monday, with being less about superpowers and more about serendipity.

You have your choice of:

A.)    Theme Music - Everywhere you go, no matter you do, the appropriate music will play.  If you’ve gone on a hike, made it up a hill, and are overlooking nature’s splendor; there will be a soaring orchestral.  If you’re on your way to a ( Read more... )

 Mad Scientist Monday, this time you must choose between the elemental powers of the Fantastic Four.

a.)    Mr. Fantastic.  You are stretchy, super stretchy in fact.  Your upper limit for stretching is 160 feet, but you are incredibly thin at that point.  Bullets hurt you, but they don’t tear into you, rather they go in and bounce back out.  You can ( Read more... )

Mad Scientists Monday is back, with the choice between speaking in tongues.

A.)    Speak and you will be heard, listen and you will understand.  This is the ability to speak and communicate with any sentient being anywhere.  Any language or form of communications is instantly at your command, including Morse code, smoke signals, sign language, etc.  ( Read more... )

You have your choice of:

A.)    Mastery of the whip.  In honor of Dr. Jones and his singlehandedly fucking over the Nazis before the rest of the world got its shit together, you can master his signature weapon.  You can knock things out of people’s hands without hurting them (but you can also hurt them if you want).  You grab things and pull them to ( Read more... )

Mad Scientist time, and this go ‘round, he’s giving you the option for invincibility, albeit in two vastly different ways.

A.)    Man of Steel invincibility.  You’re super dense, and thus your strength is amped up due to reinforced bones, organs, and muscles.  Bullets bounce off of you; grenades can blow up around you; you can free fall from space, ( Read more... )

It’s Mad Scientist Time, and this time we are journeying into the future to choose between the power sets of two of the Legion’s of Superheroes most useless members.

A.)    Matter-Eater Lad.  You can eat and digest anything.  That’s it.  You don’t gain any of the object’s properties, but if you can get it between your teeth, you can eat it.   Metal ( Read more... )

It’s the Monday Mad Scientist break down this time dealing with shape-shifting.

A.)    You can change into anything with a similar mass.  Now, similar is open to interpretation, in this case, you could change into Shaquille O’Neal, especially since he’s a person, but not, say, an elephant.  Essentially you could turn into any person on Earth, a dog ( Read more... )

Mad Scientist time and for this one I’m taking from a more esoteric character and book, Prodigy from New X-Men.

He’s had both of these powers, and it’s a nice little take on telepathy, but basically Prodigy’s first power set was he instantly acquired the skills (not abilities) of anyone around him.  Therefore he had access to Wolverine’s combat ( Read more... )

Nearly seventy days in, and I’m starting to think about making a few things a permanent fixture week to week.  Mad Scientist, comics reviews, something about cooking, and maybe a review or something with the summer movie season officially starting May 2nd with Iron Man’s flick coming out for all of us to enjoy.

Anyway, Mad Scientist time, and I can’ ( Read more... )

More fun with the Mad Scientist.  This time he has superpowers for you that alter your physical traits.

a.)     Absorb the properties of inanimate materials.  You have to be able to get into physical contact with it, but once you do your skin becomes like that object; steel, granite, concrete, silver, as long as it’s solid, and the denser it is, the ( Read more... )
