Forgot About His Powers: Difference between revisions

Line 208:

** The danger room instance isn't an example, it's a case of her not being able to sustain her intangibility for long enough.

** Wolwerine suffers from this as he is constantly surprised by people sneaking up on him even through he can smell people from distance.

* ''[[He-Man and the Masters of the Universe]]'':

** Skeletor suffers from this a lot in both versions of the series. One big example was Faker. In the episode "The Shaping Staff" he somehow creates Faker out of thin air, Faker being a fully sapient duplicate of He-Man. One has to wonder why he never considered using such magic to create a whole army of evil clones if it was that easy to do so.

** In the 2002 series, the Snake Men retake Snake Mountain in all of five minutes, with Snake-Face using his powers to turn Skeletor's henchmen into stone with his gaze. However, when the Snake Men storm Greyskull later, Snake-Face, for some unfathomable reason, delays using this lethal ability until he goes up against He-Man, choosing to fight Mekanek with [[Good Old Fisticuffs]]. Say what? To drive home the point on how absurd this was, the comic book adaptation changed it, and he ''did'' use his gaze on Mek; fortunately, in this case, when [[Hoist By His Own Petard| his gaze was reflected back]] on him by He-Man and he got a taste of his own medicine, [[No Ontological Inertia| the effect on his victims wore off.]]
