>>79665814
But the Kryptonians are natural they werent created otherwise that would be logical, their planet also doesnt permit shooting lasers from you eyes as a required survival method.

The next question I have is how the actual fuck does Manhunters powers even work.

>wanting shit realistically explained

Kryptonians have solar cells throughout their bodies that absorb yellow sun energy via some kind of pseudoscience probably closest to how chloroplasts work

You could try actually reading comics instead of making dumb threads

>>79665874
Their planet is orbiting a red sun so it De powers them
Also think of their eyes like they are a magnifying glass

>>79665714
I'm guessing this is bait, but if you're being sincere you're coming at this the wrong way.

The key is in your own question: "logical explanation". You seem to be asking for a SCIENTIFIC explanation, which is stupid.

A "logical explanation" doesn't mean a realistic or scientific one. It means logical consistency, and the powers in comics usually strive for internal logical consistency.

Comics break this sometimes, and these breaks are obvious and are complained about. A comic will establish what a person can do, and why, and then continue to maintain that.

>>79665899

But how the flying jesus fuck is THIS NATURAL?

>>79666079
>But how the flying jesus fuck is THIS NATURAL?

The flying comes from a bioaura that gets produced by charged solar cells

Again, this is all explained in comics

>>79665714
The comic tells you that he can, that's all you should need to know. Don't over think a character created to entertain children in the 1930's

But how the flying jesus fuck is this NATURAL?

>>79666079
>but how the fuck do non magical being in both Marvel and DC do the crap they do.

I'm not as knowledgeable about DC, but Marvel has this covered.

All super powers (on Earth at least) are due to Celestial tampering with the genes of the ancestors of humans millions of years ago. Celestials are beings so far advanced beyond us that their technology is basically magic, and they used this technology to imbue the potential of super abilities in what would eventually become humans

Some bearers of these traits, called mutants, express them naturally. Some, called mutates, require triggers like exposure to radiation.

But the answer to your question for Marvel is "space god magic".

Because it's not real you sperg. You want Moby Dick's entire family tree and precise dimensions too? It's just a bigass white whale, you don't need shit, fuck you you ignorant jackass. You better be some kinda ultra smart ma thematic genius with this kinda spergdom.

>>79666232
I don't understand what you're confused about. It seems like most organisms on Krypton get powers so they all have the solar cells, probably just something in their evolutionary path. Why are you confused?

>>79666327
Because his autism won't let him accept that these are stories for entertainment and don't need to follow REAL TRUE SCIENCE.

>>79666327
How do these solar cells exist?
>>79666244
I know Marvel already explained all the powers with Celestials giving humans the ability to subconsiously impose their will allowing them to reality warp superpowers into existence that dont make sense logically in their universe its something like the espers in magical index.

>>79666410
>How do these solar cells exist?

Why do Kryptonians and Humans look physically the same?
And why are most races of aliens just humans with different skin color?
I know that the IRL reason is lazyness but has anyone ever given a canon reason for that?
Is the Infinite Crisis thing that all life started on Earth still canon, and do they writers realize how retarded that is?

>>79666493
You can never tell why autists fixate on what they do. Autism is funny like that.

>>79666441
What?
>>79666506
Humanoid physiology makes tool use easier so any intelligent alien race may have a bipedal humanoid physiology, the completely flat human faces is due to them no longer requiring powerful jaws so their jaws sink in their face and get weaker over time. Its the same reason we dont look like apes right now.

Look man, with superhero comics either you accept that superpowers can exist or you don't.

If you don't, then you shouldn't read them because there is no scientific explanation. It's fantastic entertainment.

It seems like this is making you really upset. I think you'd be much happier just not reading superhero comics if they bother you that much.

Lol, wouldn't it be funny if Kryptonians were created to be the ultimate soldiers, then a habitable planet was seeded with them, it's sun converted to red (it's been done before to Earth's sun in the comics) and they were left to be later harvested, indoctrinated, exposed to a yellow sun, then set loose on their creators' enemies, but Krypton went KERPLOO before they were needed? That's just too wacky to ever be a possibility! A planet of dormant super-soldiers...wow.

>>79666668
But there are canon shit that states life existed long before Earth was even formed on the post-CoIE DCU.
Like the Oans had to at least have existed before the humans, if not than the whole Vandal Savage Immortal Man thing falls apart.

>>79666577
Again, is just converging evolution the canon reason or is that just a fan theory?

>>79666811
But anon unless its stated like in most fictional universes, the powers need a source that makes coherent senses.

For example the superpowers in Dragonball are due to chi and magic but mainly chi. In DC there is nothing that explains why so many random humans can develop superpowers and it doesnt explain how these superpowers ignore the conservation of energy.
>>79666879
Once a species gets smart and doesnt like in the water it doesnt need jaws anymore so its face will begin to flatten while its cranium expands.

meta gene makes no fucking sense at all, how can DNA GIVE YOU THE ABILITY TO SHOOT FIRE FROM YOUR HAND?

It cant its all a load of bullshit. Unless the DNA in question is not chemical DNA but an unknown alien metaphysical gene that operates differently.

Still doesnt explain how they violate conservation of energy.

>>79667013
I'm pretty sure they don't explain how superpowers ignore the conservation of energy because it's one of those "who pumps the batmobile's tires" things, unless they need to do one of those "you see [insert villain here], here's my complicated and revealing backtrack through how I foiled your evil schemes" sort of things

>>79666955

You seem angry anon. Want to talk about it?

Who pumps the Batmobile's tires?

If you can't answer this with properly cited sources then every writer that's ever worked on Batman is lazy and a hack.

>>79667097
>>79667104
Of course the conservation of energy won't get explained because superpowers aren't real and couldn't actually happen.

Is this not immediately obvious to you?

If it was magic anon I wouldnt have made this thread but its not magic so its science so it NEEDS TO MAKE SENSE.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones.

I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something?

Ha ha, boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Most scifi have explanations behind their stuff but DC doesnt anon.

I NEED AN EXPLANATION for it.

How do they ignore conversation of energy? There is simply no way scientific bio organisms could ever hold that much energy inside of them without exploding nor generate that much energy without exploding either. So how do they do it?

>>79667365
Maybe we should start by establishing some basic points.

Anon, do you understand comics are fiction?

>>79666955
There is no conservation of energy in the DC universe. its literally cannon.
both, given it has been REPEATEDLY asserted its a comic book, fictional world, with all the the wall breaking.
Superman seeing, us, etc.

But also in universe. Speed force, the bleed. The DC universe is NOT a closed system. Very clearly not. EXPRESSLY not so.

Not even in a speed force is magic we dont have to explai shit, bullshit. but, the speed force is ENERGY FROM OUTSIDE THE UNIVERSE. it by definition, and its very existence, means its not a closed system.

>>79667394
But you're getting the explanations and you still say that they aren't explanations. The explanation for the solar cells is that they are able to do it via a mechanism similar to one that some Earth life uses but it is simply better. Yet you say that isn't enough.

>>79666700

In some incarnations, Kryptonians ARE created. More than a few people think that was something that started with Man of Steel, but it's actually been around for decades.

I imagine that back when Krypton's star was younger, Kryptonian scientists figured out how to modify their genes in order to take advantage of the solar radiation. Of course, since Clark is usually portrayed as being conceived naturally in contrast to the rest of the planet's population, one wonders how he got the same abilities. Unless they were inherited somehow.

The reason is that they are fictional characters that don't follow physical laws, only narrative.

Really, the fact that their entire universe is a construct of literary ideas is a BIG part of the lore.

So, basically he does what he does because people and the writter like it.

Bruce either does it himself or lets the Batcave's automated repair suite do it.

I understand the intent behind that phrase, but couldn't somebody have come up with a better example of "don't ask you idiot" than that? I mean, does Batman have some kind of psychological condition that renders him incapable of putting air in his tires?

>>79669094
I don't like the versions where Clark is conceived naturally or is otherwise special.

I feel like it undermines the idea of the character. Superman happened to land somewhere where he had the power to make a difference, and he chose to do good with that power. His real power is empathy and caring.

I feel like making him special or the Chosen One or something damages that. He's a normal person on his home planet, and on Earth where he happens to have extraordinary abilities he chooses to be normal as well.

I insist upon the equal existence of the world engendered in the mind and the world engendered by God outside of it. If I have faltered in the use of familiar objects, it is because I refuse to mutilate their appearance for the sake of an action which they are too old to serve, or for which perhaps they had never been intended. I quarrel with surrealists and abstract art only as one quarrels with his father and mother; recognizing the inevitability and function of my roots, but insistent upon my dissent; I, being both they, and an integral completely independent of them.

>>79669274
I liked the way Man of Steel handled that. He wasn't special. And in fact he was weaker in some aspects than other, more genetically specialized members of his race. He just had the ability to choose, rather than blindly follow one path like Zod. And as you said, he also possessed the capacity to truly care for others, and to make decisions based on morals, rather than what he was designed to do.

>Even as Hollywood transforms itself into a superhero-industrial complex, struggling to find "gritty" and "realistic" takes on flying Übermenschen in rubber suits, Morrison revels in the glorious madness of these stories. "People say kids can't understand the difference between fact and fiction, but that's bullshit," he says. "Kids understand that real crabs don't sing like the ones in The Little Mermaid. But you give an adult fiction, and the adult starts asking really fucking dumb questions like 'How does Superman fly? How do those eyebeams work? Who pumps the Batmobile's tires?' It's a fucking made-up story, you idiot! Nobody pumps the tires!"

Yes, that's right. Force equals mass times acceleration. Newton's First Law of Motion tells us that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

It's very clear.

They did when they didn't say it was magic.

>chi being a metaphysical force makes complete sense dumbass
Actually, no. That's not what chi is.
If you think that you're basically a dumb white person who thinks he knows his shit.

>>79670457
No I am the real OP because there is a reason why I havent responded to any of post in the last couple of minutes because I was cooking something.
>>79670477
In DBZ chi is metaphysical you dumbass

>>79670433
>>79670491

Fuck off retard, you're not OP. You don't even fucking know the difference between atoms and cells, or what chi is.


Like I said here >>79670477, chi is directional stored momentum energy. DBZ gets this right. whitey.

>>79670444
>Yes, that's right. Force equals mass times acceleration.
But the presence of Universal Laws of motion doesn't make Green Arrow weak like kryptonite does Superman

>They did when they didn't say it was magic.
But Magic does exist in the DC continuity

>>79670562
>But the presence of Universal Laws of motion doesn't make Green Arrow weak like kryptonite does Superman

Are you fucking retarded? Of course it does. If Olly gets hit by a truck the energy transfer kills him.

You think Olly can take being hit by a truck?

>But Magic does exist in the DC continuity

But Superman isn't magical. That's my point.

>>79670546
Cry more chink faggot I dont care I was just making a comparison.

Anyways back on topic Superman powers dont make sense if he is natural. On the otherhand Wonderwoman powers can be explained with its magic I aint gotta explain shit.

>>79670631
>But Superman isn't magical.
That doesn't mean he defaults to science.

>>79670631
>If Olly gets hit by a truck the energy transfer kills him
Depends on where the truck hits him
If Green Arrow is standing on the street and sticks out his finger, he wouldn't die

>But Superman isn't magical
He's never explicitly stated to be anything but magical

>>79670491
>In DBZ chi is metaphysical you dumbass
No, it's not.
The word Ki (which is their usage in Dragonball) is derived from the word Chi or Qi (proper spelling) in Chinese, meaning "breath", representing exercising your body and a special muscle in your abdomen called a "diantien" (or a "tendan" Japanese) that when exercised increases your reserve if Qi, which when circulated through your body provides a supernatural improvement on your abilities.

This is of course highly exaggerated in Dragonball, but the very concept of chi has it stated to be a physical form of energy, not magic.
I guarantee you 100% that nowhere in Dragonball is Ki explained to be anything else.

If it is you have to prove it by posting the page where they explain otherwise.

>>79670663
How can you say DBZ is scientific because of chi then insult me?

Educate yourself >>79670726

You're right the first time: DBZ is science unlike Superman.

>>79670684
>If Green Arrow is standing on the street and sticks out his finger, he wouldn't die

Yes he would it's basic physics. Energy transfer

>He's never explicitly stated to be anything but magical

He's either magic or science. He's not magic, so he is science.

>>79670842
>Energy transfer
Not if the truck only hits his finger
at worst, he would only lose the finger

>He's either magic or science
okay
>He's not magic
Says who?
>so he is science
Says you?

>>79670726
Hey Chink there's no such fucking thing as diantien or tendan. That's monkey superstitious garbage.

This is why you chinks keep grinding up tigers and shit to make your dicks hard.

You should be on your knees every day that the white man brought you actual medicine and science.

>>79670726
DBZ has magic and ki which already stated dumbass. Ki is not the same as magic in DBZ.

>>79670779
>You're right the first time: DBZ is science unlike Superman.
It's pseudoscience.
It's like phlostigen or lumineferous aether; there's a "science" behind it but it's all completely wrong.

>>79670901
Oh, I'm not Chinese.
Not even Asian.

>>79671062
This the chink retard must be dumb if he actualy thinks I think DBZ is scientific no Im just saying DBZ has a handwaving pseudoscience explanation for the illogical stuff they do. Superman doesnt or at least his own doesnt really make a nick of sense.

>>79666232

It may not seem natural to you, from your feeble human perspective, but have you ever thought maybe, just maybe, ALIEN anatomies or capabilities would be beyond and/or drastically different than that of a humans?

Of course not, because you're an autistic shitbrain who posts nebulous threads on /co/ about shit you probably don't even read.

>>79671147
I understand aliens, retard. I've seen them so I know a fuck ton more about them than you. That has shit to do with anything.

Superman isn't magic so he can't have magic cells or laser eyes. That's fucking science.

If DC wanted to put some science in like chi in DBZ, that's fine but they didn't.

IT HAS TO MAKE FUCKING SENSE AND IT DOESN'T

>>79671132
The supposed "chink retard" made that very post you're quoting. I know how it's supposed to work because I read shit, that's all.
I think you can actually find most of it on Wikipedia.

>>79671255
>IT HAS TO MAKE FUCKING SENSE
No it doesn't.
There is no legal, moral, religious, or even narrative obligation for it to do so at all, so all it needs to do is be a financially valuable intellectual property.
Which it is.

>>79671258
Ching chong ching chong chink

You're not going to be around much longer. We're going to fucking put China down and lock you chink traitors in America up like we did with the Japs back in WWII.

We're going to impregnate all your women so your kind will be gone.

Hmm...well played bait. At least.
Overplayed your hand though.
Maybe when you get older you'll get better at it too.

>>79671147
Manipulating gravity is not naturally possible meaning no alien species will ever evolve this ability, but it is possible if the species were created instead. My point for the Leltonians is that they are supposed to have naturally evolved on their crappy planet with lots of gravity.

>>79671307
At least you tried.

Please read and respond >>79671357

magic and science are the same thing though, just different approaches

Something something Kryptonian Sun God

Geez, does nobody read comics in between physics classes? The answer is Krypton was rich in naturally occurring gallium arsenide and room temperature superconductors, and these found their way into the Kryptonian genome. This facilitated the formation of superdense nantenna arrays all over Superman's body, n-p junctions in his eyes allowing high resolution detection of electromagnetic radiation into the x-ray range as well as, yes, create coherent beams of light. The superconductors (super, get it?) provide 100% efficient distribution of absorbed energy and create vortices that trap the flux of the Earth's magnetosphere, allowing flight. I mean, obviously.

Not everything HAS been explained by science.
Can't they just... not know how it work?
