Would you feel that whilst you were falling through the air from like 50 stories up? 😬

Or if you were getting your ass pounded by the Hulk?

Why doesn't the spider sense warn peter when the webbing is gonna run out. Normally it happens and he is either gonna fall hundreds of feet or get bashed by some baddy so wouldn't it warn him due to the indirect dangers of it?

Or does anyone think that maybe the indirectness of the danger of the web running out negate the effect? Because the actual running out doesn't hurt him but the handicap that it gives him versus an opponent is the real danger...

Yup ... not having webbing isn't a danger in and of itself.

Exactly. Him running out of webbing is too indirect. If the spider-sense were THAT sensitive then realistically anytime he took a step in a fight it would go off (because he could be moving closer to a villian therefore setting himself up to possibly get attacked)

New Question:

When someone brings up some variation of "So-n-so can survive a nuke," what yield do most of you think of?

Triple - digit kiloton usually.

EDIT: Sorry, I wrote megaton instead of kiloton

Why didn't Wolverine remember having bone claws before he had the adamantium bonded to them.

Question: Say a character with an Uber healing factor eg. Wolverine/Sabertooth/X-23/Deadpool loses a limb, how come you don't end up two of that character since both the body and the severed limb contain the healing factor and therefore both should also be regenerate back whatever was lost.

It needs a connection to the brain in order to guide the regen.

The same thing happens with starfish. If you cut off a limb the starfish will heal and the removed limb is die. However if you cut off a chunk that has part of the brain in it both will regrow into a new starfish.

A removed limb also lacks the systems needed to provide it with nutrients and oxygen.

Either Oppenhiemer's Trinity test or Hiroshima.

i thought his brain survived?

Really how though? Granted his skull is laced with adamantium, but his sockets(Once his eyeballs were burnt) and his other facial orficies aren't protected by anything. They lead right to the brain.

Well his tongue survived I guess it's reasonable... 😖hifty:
