Charlie is a regular working schlub, a “nobody”, who ran afoul of the Joker in the Batman Animated Series episode “Joker’s Favor”. He gets terrorized, browbeaten, stalked, and nearly murdered…and then, the Joker threatens his family. Soon after, the Joker is clinging to Batman, begging to be saved from Charlie, because Charlie has figured out exactly how to terrify the Joker. In a final twist of the knife, he gets a laugh out of Batman before casually driving off to have dinner with his family.
*Okay, the Joker isn’t “super-powerful” in the sense of actually having superpowers, but he is portrayed as incredibly dangerous and resourceful compared to ordinary people.
The various Scourges (NOT Skurge) vs. almost anyone. They killed at least half of Marvel’s rogues’ gallery in the 80s. And they weren’t really superpowered…just well-trained in hand-to-hand, marksmanship and disguise.
No, that was when super-evil computer Computo destroyed her third body when she was split up. In the next panel, she is smiling about her other two bodies being saved!
They have similar propulsion systems! Staircase Boy could defeat the Computos.
And thinking about that just made me realize…the Legion can’t attack cause Computo is holding Legionairres hostage…but they’re just rolling computer banks with bubble heads who are going to take over the Earth. The Science Police should have been all about blasting them from space. Screw the handful of hostages, these guys are going to take over the Earth!
Raj: I like Green Lantern, I’m just saying it’s pretty lame that he can be defeated by the color yellow.
Sheldon: Only the modern Green Lantern is vulnerable to yellow.
Leonard: Golden Age Green Lantern was vulnerable to wood.
Raj: Great. So I can take them both out with a number 2 pencil?
