pretty easy. you'll catch on.

batmobile:batman::_____________:silver surfer

an obvious analogy just so's you get how to play. there is like....an infinite amount of material to draw analogies from. if you answer the question, you post the next analogy.

pr and bada, i know this is not the forum, but thought i'd post it here to start, see if it catches on. if it does, feel free to move when you think appropriate. if it doesn't it will just die on the vine anyway. lol

a slightly more challenging one:

power cosmic:galactus::________________:elders of the universe

solve and post! smile

power cosmic:galactus::Power Primordial: elders of the universe

Great idea, leo. My turn.


Wolverine - healing factor, Captain America __________

^ I assume what superpower they're most known for? Wolverine = healing factor ... Captain America = peak humanity.

And yeah, this should be too easy in general, unless we deliberately try to spice things up.

Sentry = schizophrenia ... Batman = ???

Abandoned child syndrome?

I said Batman, not RealityWarper.

Yup thumb up

Super Soldier Serum was what I had in mind, but your answer is correct (let's not elaborate, Steve already had a dozen or more threads about his enhanced status or the lack of thereof).

Omg, not this again laughing out loud Please, not here. Entire BZ is filled with your and RW's arguments, let's keep other threads clean.

Anyway, Bruce does fit the description. But if that's not what you wanted... hmmm... obsession then, maybe?

i'd have thought sss for the cap analogy... anyway, the bats analogy is too broad. he could literally fall into several categories of mental disorder. dissociative identity is a strong candidate, but cluster a personality disorders (even schizo) also fit the...cowl...? not sure which one you're going for but you may need to just tell us that one.

in the meantime...

I was actually quite curious.

So Mags suffered from hepatitis and Wally from what? Magneto couldn't use his mutant powers due to hepatitis, which is why they were 'activated' so far off into his adulthood - though he showed some signs even early on, but not actual conscious control.

Wally's answer was supposed to be Barry's death, lol. .

It's why I said it's...out there.

Cyclops. Death killed Morpheus, Cyclops killed Xavier

It's scheduled for Thursday, but we'll probably start tomorrow, depending on when Damborg sends his.

Enzeru
Sorry for the late answer:

Sentry = schizophrenia ... Batman = post traumatic stress disorder

... is what I had in mind for Batman, but a lot of stuff can be named for that lunatic.
