Fetus Terrible: Difference between revisions

Line 31:

** The worst would have to be [[Ms. Marvel]] in ''[[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Avengers]]'', who got spontaneously pregnant, went through hyper-accelerated gestation, and gave birth to a child who rapidly grew into an adult and mind-controlled her into being his lover. Not only is it squicky almost beyond description, it's nigh-unfathomable how this got past, well, anyone in a Comics Code approved book in 1980.

** The same thing happened to [[Power Girl]] during ''[[Crisis Crossover|Zero Hour]]''; just replace "rape" with "incest", as the father was revealed to be {{spoiler|her grandfather, Arion (in [[Post-Crisis]] continuity)}}. The baby grew up to become Equinox, who promptly defeated Scarabus, disappeared, and was never seen nor mentioned again.

* One [[Big Bad]] of ''[[~~X-Factor (Comic Book)|~~X-Factor]]'' was {{spoiler|Haven, who sought to bring about the foretold apocalypse today instead of waiting for it to happen on its own after still more centuries of human suffering. She was led to do it by visions sent to her by "him," but never elaborates upon just who "he" is, though you figure she's talking about God. She's not: she's pregnant, and "he" is her unborn child and the true source of her power.}}

* One of the main characters in ''[[Lucifer (Comic Book)|Lucifer]]'' was impregnated by a pack of cards. With twins. One of which she managed to kill while it was technically unborn, the other took her hostage until she negotiated with it.

* Cassandra Nova, the parasiting twin sister of [[X-Men (Comic Book)|Professor Xavier]] was one of these. In fact, Professor X's very first act of super heroing with his [[Psychic Powers]] was to fight her while they were both in the womb. {{spoiler|It turns out she was an astral parasite (known as a Mummudrai) who was Xavier's opposite: Every bit evil as Xavier would be good. She's since become one of the X-Men's top villains.}}

Line 37:

* One of the most horrible stories in ''[[Hack Slash]]'' had the slasher turn out to be a stunted murderous foetus who emerged from his obese adult twin brother's belly through a slit camouflaged between two rolls of fat.

** A very short story in the same series had a fetus carve its way out of its laboring mother ''with a knife'', kill the attending doctor, and attempt to crawl ''into'' Cassie Hack while she was waiting for a gynecological exam. Hack promptly squashes it, but still... ''where did it get the knife???''

* In ''[[~~Fables (Comic Book)|~~Fables]]'', Snow White gets pregnant by the Big Bad Wolf and gives birth to six babies. {{spoiler|What she doesn't know at first is that she actually had seven babies. The seventh child was a invisible being made of wind and wound up killing some people to feed itself.}} Things got better after that, though.

* The end of [[Bio Apocalypse]] involves an epic showdown between {{spoiler|a 50 mile high fetus and a space fleet armed with nuclear weapons.}} Really.
