Wait, Green Lantern’s weakness is yellow? That’s fucking retarded. I might as well paint myself yellow and punch him in the face. What next? Superman’s weakness is red LED lights?
This is a repeat spambot post.
>>156255485That’s exactly what the villain Goldface did.Nowadays he’s a Union Teamster in Keystone city.
In terms of "shitty weaknesses" in comics, I feel like the worst of all is Martian Manhunter's weakness to fire. It gimps him hard, because you're never going to have a superhero action sequence where things AREN'T catching on fire. You basically have to stick him to the most low-level shit possible. It's a total waste of his laundry list of superpowers.And unlike the Green Lanterns' yellow weakness there's no plausible way to get rid of it. Johns was pretty clever to make Parallax the "yellow impurity" in the central battery, and that taking him out of it would remove the yellow weakness. I have no idea how you'd similarly finagle away J'onn's fire weakness. It's a much tougher problem to solve.
>>156255672I think it was claiming that the fire weakness is psychological
You dare question the Guardians of the Universe? They gave the lanterns a retarded weakness on purpose so they wouldn't be corrupted by absolute power
