Seems easier to go mechanical womb for creating babies with super-strength, but perhaps the concept wasn't thought up at the time? Would also be easier to maintain a desired level of chemicals and environmental conditions, come to think of it.

I had a similar thought, but in the end I did some research and it appears that simulating the womb is a bit trickier than it appears at first glance. Given that it seems reasonable to assume there are advantages to "natural" development.

That aside, the image of row upon row of artificial wombs giving birth legions of super powered children is very much in genre for comics.

So... what's with the extended 'mmmmm' thing? I'm not quite getting what it's indicating, other than perhaps some interest/excitement on learning about T. Sivana's reasoning/methods.

Thank you, cor-.

Sorry. Um. No, otherwise I'd have stopped.

Or... I don't know, killed someone?

Frustration and excitement.

This....this entire family either needs to have group hugging sessions or therapy. I mean for the last couple chapters I done nothing but, want to give them my sympathy mind if I had ever expressed it to any of them it would be very likely I'd get one or more death rays shoved up my nostrils and or lain out on a lab table to transformed into a creature of some sort.

I Half expect for Senior to show up the dinner causally mention that he's been aware that Captain Marvel was a child for some time and that the only reason he attacks the boy at this point it keep him on his toes and try to drive his daughter to....different prospects. Now that she knows that the good captain is a boy senior will ease up somewhat. Though just because he's easing up doesn't mean he won't stop as at this point it's largely become about the challenge.

He says this so casually.

Got to wonder if Beautia was planning to invite Capt Marvel to family gatherings before she learned his age. Would have made for some… tense meals I suspect.

A couple of decades in jail is a comparatively small price for more than trebling your lifespan, never mind the immediate buffs.

I had the same question. Two other options that came to mind were OL holding his tongue (for once), or enjoying the physical contact with Beautia (but it's an odd spot for that). Just confusing what's going on, as-is.

I was wondering about that.

For those of you who aren't big DC fans, in the comics Red Tornado isn't actually an android, he's an air elemental possessing a disposable android shell, he even possessed a flesh and blood human body for like 5 minutes before Solomon Grundy killed the body.

So after the whole "Red Tornado hasn't needed to recharge since he was created" made me wonder if John just has a really good battery and happens to have elemental power, or if Morrow actually built him to channel one of the primal elemental forces of the DC universe.

Which are the clear/blue- water, the red- animal life, the green- plants, the grey- fungi, the black- death, the white- air, Firestorm was retconned to be a fire elemental so i guess that would make the fire elemental power the firestorm matrix, and Captain Atom was theorized to be a quantum elemental so I guess there might be a time/space elemental power too.

One would presume that there is an earth elemental power, since that's fairly standard, but it hasn't been mentioned much. The Hat has been described as an earth elemental and a demon, and the Martian Manhunter was turned into an earth elemental by the white light entity, but that's about it as far as I can recall.

Nah, as long as Paul is fairly sure they are using their powers for the betterment of society as a whole instead of being a super villain, I don't think he'll personally care too much if they turn themselves in or not.

The trick is trying to see if he can convert the two or at the very least make them borderline like their older brother.
