No idea. I stopped reading DD after he got lectured by Parker but it's probably a writer/artist error
Owl experimented on himself iirc, so he mutated further.
But I don't recall him growing claws. That's new.

But yeah, also thought of the same showing.
Same writer, same run, right?

It's kinda ridiculous that DD can flip him over like that.

👆Yeah that was over the top. He outmuscled a charging Rhino..
DD is what 6ft 200lbs? Rhino is like Thing level strength. 😂
Flipping him is not the weird part.
Matt is a top tier MA; sure he can use his opponents' momentum and weight against them.
But... making Rhino choke on a hilt of Crossbones' knife...?
That was all sort of dumb.
Why didn't he... I dunno... spit it out? Or even chomped through it?
DD seemed to have no problem extracting it from Rhino's mouth, so it's not like it got stuck in his throat or something.
Perhaps he hit a crucial pressure point there? If so, too bad it wasn't stated.
That was a shitty knife --- blade shattered after deflecting a single bullet. Somehow I doubt its hilt was better.
Rhino was Class 80 by Parker's estimation, before he started working out (became much stronger, as noted on panel) and got bloodlusted 24/7 after losing his wife.
And he's bulletproof even without his armor.
😂 @the turtle part. Love that explanation 👆

But usually I see streets flipping higher tier bricks while they're standing and catching them off guard or using their own momentum like an ole in a bull charge.
This looks like Matt produced force above a much higher tier brick who was running at him. He might as well stop a 40 ton semi moving straight at him, at 50mph. Seemed off to me.

The rumour is that Marvel actually wanted to retcon Uncle Ben to be a pedo, but they reconsidered.But... they did make Pete daydream about Uncle Ben... during sex with Mary Jane... 🙁
That would be one **** you to fans of Uncle Ben’s words to Peter. “With great power, come great responsibilities.”
I don’t think many writers know some words/advices from fictions actually shape a young persons life.
Just like in All Star when Superman saved that girl from commuting suicide. A young individual read that story, was thinking about commuting suicide, until they read the words Superman told that girl. It saved said individual.
I’m glad they didn’t retcon Uncle Ben into such a monster.

The ONLY explanation that would make sense is if Rhino wasn't charging at him, but standing there and shouting Graagh!
Originally posted by celeyhyga17Yeah, Matt somehow produced enough counter force to stop Rhino's charge and throw him to the ground.

Pretty hard to reconcile a street doing something like that.

Yeah, Elephants are MUCH more massive. You can practically drive a car into those beasts and be more likely to kill your self and wreck the car then kill them. Can't see a Rhino killing a healthy adult elephant.

Sounds like someone was a fan of Ranma 1/2.

Meh.
Batman had a similar showing and - despite what the art showed - Grant Morrison stated in the director's cut of the issue that Batman used his attacker's own momentum against him.

Sure, but "skill" is just as OP as actual superpowers in comics.
That's why a guy like Ogun can kick ass while possessing an old, fat woman.
Logically, a guy like Batman shouldn't disappear from Superman and J'onn trying to study his moves... and T'Challa or Temugin should break their fingers, trying to pressure-point Cage or Hulk.
