Early Installment Weirdness/Comic Books: Difference between revisions

* Many superhero comics. [[Superman]] was a [[Flying Brick]] who couldn't fly, only jump (hence, "able to leap tall buildings in a single bound") and run (hence, "faster than a speeding bullet"); [[Batman]] killed his adversaries.

** [[X-Men]] villain [[Magneto]], in contrast to his contemporary portrayal as a [[Well Intentioned Extremist]], was a straightforward bad guy without any redeeming features. He also had psychic powers that were nearly a match for Charles Xavier's, including [[Astral Projection]].
