yeah, i've never really understood that scan --COULD HAVE BEEN THE FACE OF THE STRANGER? wtf is that supposed to mean? stranger was NEVER part of LT. lt implying that stranger might have somehow been a part of lt is just....weird. doesn't really do anything for me, and it does even less for the stranger. never understood why stranger fans have thought so much of that scene. shrug
But, whether it means he was part of LT once, or was offered the spot by LT and said no, it still seems impressive.
Even if he had once been a part of the LT, left and also left most of his power, it is still a mind boggling situation for a Marvel U character to have that history.
Also, I believe the Stranger has actually made statements in the past about how, during his experiments and observations, negative incidents sometimes prove more valuable than positive. His motivations always impossible to figure out.
Even allowing his pet planet to suffer, and remain imprisoned when he could have released it, just because he thought it would add some extra spice to his experiment.
