Magic Feather: Difference between revisions

* This seems to be the case with the Super Sauce that Super Chicken (who appeared in the ''[[George of the Jungle]]'' cartoon) supposedly used to fuel his powers; it was highly implied that the sauce, which his assistant Fred made, was just a placebo that helped the hero use his natural powers.

* In the ''[[Extreme Ghostbusters]]'' episode "Luck of the Irish", an evil leprechaun curses Garret with bad luck. Egon eventually manages to put together a formula that can be used to turn the villain's powers against him, but Garret drops the vial containing it, leaving them with only enough to load ''one'' of their weapons. Garret is on the edge of the [[Despair Event Horizon]] now and decides to lock himself in the basement and never come out, but Egon then gives him a different formula, claiming it's a "derivative byproduct of the original formula that should reverse the negative casualty effect". In truth, it's nothing but grape soda, but it makes an excellent placebo.
