"Things I Don't Understand" #2


WHY DOES ANYONE THINK THAT CAPTAIN AMERICA CAN TAKE SPIDER-MAN IN A FAIR FIGHT?

That's right. I'll have this conversation. 

Captain America's power comes from a "super-solider serum" that enhanced all of his physical abilities to the height of human potential. He's the "perfect" human. 

Spider Man, however, has SUPERhuman abilities. His strength, speed, reflexes, etc. are all superior to Captain America's by definition. So why on Earth do people think he'd go down?

...That is all.

  4. Well, if you really want the answer, it seems fairly obvious. Dumbledore can do all sorts of crazy magic, we we've seen. Yoda has "The Force" which basically just translates to telekinesis, right? That's all people seem to do with it--move stuff around.

    Dumbledore will just turn the air to water and drown Yoda and that'd be that.

    Three cheers for well thought out nerdiness!
