“Look, that teen has a man’s face” is the joke. It’s make-believe. We pretend he’s 17, despite his age in real life, just like we pretend Alice is subject to her father’s rules even though she’s 23 in real life. But whatever. I thought it was an amusing bit. You decided to look up the actor’s age. It’s not worth arguing about. Enjoy your day.

And the actor playing Alice is 23. Young adults playing teens is practically a Hollywood tradition. We go along with the joke. 🤷‍♂️

I mean... Dylan really DID have a full grown dude face.

I wish more people felt this way. Beautifully said.

I *think* the implication is that the velocity of the hammer PLUS Doomsday's own velocity combined to make the blow that much more devastating. Doomsday thought he was was ramping up to punch Kal's head off at maximum speed...and instead got hit in the head with a hammer coming the other way just as fast. That's how I justified it, at least.

Martha Kent raised her boy better than that!

BIG Fringe fan here and yes — I got massive Fringe vibes as soon as I saw the typewriter!

Yeah, all of this. (And I appreciate the Jumper shout-out! Love those books!) I think of it this way: Asgardians (and Asgard-raised Frost Giants trained in magic) have a certain amorphous amount of generic "power." For our viewing purposes, that power is distributed across various skills, effects, buffs. At the end of Loki, Loki basically channeled all of his power into "save the multiverse" mode. He can't do anything else. If he allows himself to be distracted or "shift" his power, everything falls apart. I don't think any other god could do this, actually. I think they're all rigidly locked into "my power does THIS" and "my power does THAT." But Loki, as a trickster god of chaos, can transcend the locked-in order of "super-powers" and turn his allotment of power into whatever he wants.

I suspect it's because it hasn't happened for Mobius yet. He'll end up 400 years in the past and meet OB briefly.

Still have my copy and actually re-read it recently. It’s…pretty incesty.

I'm assuming it was a side/after-effect of the drugs Moss had him on. The blood loss from his palm looked nasty, but not nearly enough to cause him to pass out.

This is EXACTLY what I thought was going to happen!

A “cutscene” in video game parlance is not a “scene that was cut,” but rather a scene that does not require player interaction. It’s an animated movie-like scripted scene that comes between the cut from one playable moment to another. So in this instance, the length of the accumulated scenes from the game is about two hours.

In the comics, he is licensed in California. It’s a long story.

I bet he has his aliases thought out one or two in advance and just bequeaths everything to himself.
