Line 44:
* [[Marvel Comics]] has a superhero named Gravity. [[Captain Obvious|Guess what his superpower is.]]
** Graviton, also from the ''[[Marvel Universe]]''.
* Almost every version of [[Starman (Comic Bookcomics)|Starman]]. However, they largely derived from the gravity or cosmic rod. The <s>Starman</s> Star Boy from the [[Legion of Super-Heroes]] had gravity powers of his own. Interestingly, [[Depending on the Writer|in some versions]], most notably pretty much all of the Postboot continuity, Star Boy's power is increasing (or occasionally decreasing) a specific object's gravitational ''mass'', thus affecting the weight of that object and that object alone.
* Hiram "Fatman" Worcester from ''[[Wild Cards]]''.
* Nova, a Marvel super hero who has control of the Nova Force, which grants him gravimetric powers.
Line 107:
** Slightly justified in its potential failing of physics in that the 'Gravity Gun' is just a nickname. Whatever mechanism it actually uses for throwing stuff around is not explained.
* ''[[Halo]]'' has the Gravity Hammer.
* ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' has Gravity spells in the first game and ''Chain of Memories'', and Zero Gravity spells in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep|Birth by Sleep]]''.
** Also, Organization XIII member Xigbar is a dual-arrowgun-wielding Nobody with dominion over space. He teleports, walks in the air, and can distort dimensions.
* All biotic powers (with the exception of Reave and Dominate, that are specific to asari biology but available to the player as a bonus) in ''[[Mass Effect]]'' are achieved by mass manipulation, and thus could be called a form of gravity control. A low-mass field will lift an object or move it in any direction. A high-mass field will slam it into the ground or crush it. Biotic characters can even use the Singularity power to generate miniature black holes that will attract all loose objects and weakened enemies ([[Selective Gravity|though strangely not stronger enemies or fellow party members]]). Also, the [[Cool Ship|Normandy]] uses a similar effect to achieve thrust while still remaining [[Stealth in Space|stealthy]]. The Tantalus Drive Core generates a high-gravity field in front of the ship that the Normandy "falls into", and momentum carries it from there.
