Does Sandman even need to commit crimes? What does he need all the money for?
>one fight against the Human Torch>one rock thrown in his general direction after the facthow is he even considered a threat
>>150779611Not everyone has fire powers
>>150779548To buy more sand
>>150779548He has a mom he loves
>>150779548Broadly speaking his thing is wanting to pull off one big job so he can fuck off forever
>>150779548Living in New York is expensive.
Takes money to keep cats from using you as a litter box when you're sleeping
>>150782719Can't he just live in the sand
>>150779548>Does Sandman even need to commit crimes?Love of the game, which is probably the motivation for most street level villains
>>150779548Doesn't he usually need the money for his daughter who is sick and/or poor
do any of us need to
>>150783563This
>>150779548He's saving up for a new shirt
>>150779548Bro there are beings with powers and abilities that would make the need for ever dealing with money meaningless. Yet they must rob terrorize abd take.And that's the problem. They're maladjusted individuals and are written by sociopaths who don't give a shit.
>>150779611You fight the living pile of shapeshifting sand who's been doing this long enough to fight Avengers, The Thing and Spider-man consistently well
>>150779548To put Hydro-Man out of a job
>>150785756I thought he was part of the Avengers?
>>150785756how does spiderman fight him?
>>150788038Yeah but he also has fought them....also honestly he should've stayed a hero even if he's a founding Sinister Six member
>>150788061Pragmatically
>>150788061Thats the fun. How does he defeat living sand. They fucked up by over powering him.
>>150788146I don't know if he would have worked as a long-term Avengers member but I agree that he should have stayed good
>>150779548I miss when he was a good guy
>>150788218That way Hydro Man wouldn't be somewhat redundant and also you could've had a lot of fun with stuff like Flint Marko and Ben Grimm tag teaming against bad guys like the Wrecking Crew or Sandman being in a team of other reformed Spidey villains that could've been called the Spectacular Six.
>>150788521LolFUNIN SPIDERMAN?LOOK AT HIM!LOOK AT HIM AND LAUGH!!!
>>150788521Marvel could've also built on his relationship with Silver Sable
Did Spectacular have the best adaptation of him?
>>150779548To buy more SAND
>>150779548He coulda made a killing in sand dealership.Enter in large contracts and keep all the profits, don't even have to pay for transport.
>>150788218He was working for Silver Sable for a while
>>150779548>What does he need all the money for? For sand milk & sand eggs
>>150779548You can say this about two thirds of Spider-Man's rogues galleryThe answer is that they're criminals and that's all they know how to do and if Sandman did something else like charge coastal cities for emergency seawall services then Marvel would stop looking less like "the world outside your window"
>>150779548For the love of the game
>>150779548Sand.
>>150789027Yes
>>150779548New Yorkers are not very smart
>>150782719I thought he lived in a sand castle
>>150779548Sandman is too scary for a normal job
>>150779548electric bills. he doesn't need to eat, but it's nice to have a house with a big tv, and houses with big tvs, hot beaches and hot bitches in no extradition countries arent cheap
>>150790206Yeah. Imagine this guy being the head of sand mafias. They exist.
>>150779667Yes we do, even your ancestors mastered fire. It's a weakness worse than the color yellow
>>150798085Water too
Sandbump
>>150779548Is there a limit to how much sand he can absorb
>>150799877I don’t think so. In Ends of the Earth he becomes one with the Sahara
What's ol'' Sandy up to these days?
>>150783563He's a near immortal elemental that doesn't need food or medicine, or shelter , , he should be beyond theft
>>150801258The same old
>>150801376Nobody is above hobbies, anon.
>>150801376His main MO seems to be getting rid of his immortality. Finding out he's gonna still be around billions of years in the future did a number on him.
Sandman regularly becomes the. Beach at Epstein’s island
>>150804374No Flint’s not that evil
miss it
>>150779548they only accept sand dollars where he's from
>>150804658Imagine if Plastic Man went back to being a bad guy for no reason
>>150779611So he wouldn't be Sandman anymore. Just Glassman.
