Fantastic Science: Difference between revisions

If an [[Occult Detective]] decides to also catalogue whatever it is they detect, they may also be researchers of a Fantastic Science. Research into magic ''itself'' is the subtrope [[Sufficiently Analyzed Magic]]. See also [[Magic Versus Science]], [[Admiring the Abomination]]. Compare [[The Spark of Genius]].

* ''[[Planetary]]''

* ''Skybound Entertainment'' 's comic ''Witch Doctor'' portrays the realm of supernatural creatures as parasites that are best battled by medical specialists rather then soldiers. The first issue of the mini-series treated a Demonic Possession as being similar to a parasitic infection, with the young victim, after being purged, having to remain inside his family home surrounded by protective runes until the main characters could find a more permanent cure for his condition.

* In ''[[Wakfu (Animation)|Wakfu]]'', the lost tech of the [[Precursors|Eliatropes]] is described as "magical science". Nox, the [[Big Bad]] of season 1, is also such a fantastic scientist, studying the principles behind [[Life Force|the wakfu]] and time magic to attempt [[Time Travel]]. Even before finding the [[Amplifier Artifact|Eliacube]], as a humble clockmaker he was able to built a flying pocket watch -- which just lacked a durable power source.

* Dr. Thaddeus Venture, among other characters on ''[[The Venture Brothers]]'', is a self-classified "super scientist", despite never having finished his degree.
