You should watch Dead Like Me.

That was my favorite episode of Firefly.

“Some commenter” being Edward Norton?

I recently ordered a wall adapter and the associated cable.

Amazon emailed me to confirm my order of two wireless items.

Still pretty sure you’re my brother.

It’s very possible. I’ve never read more than a handful of Batman comics. A while ago I was big into TVTropes and Wikipedia regarding some superheroes; I’m pretty sure I read there that he was the only one to have dodged them.

That’s why I keep providing caveats and prefacing my statements with things like "I read … " My claims are by no means authoritative and I don’t mean to represent them as such.

Actually, the further I type this comment, the more I think my source was the Death Battle research team. I did not follow up with primary sources.

That said, a quick search suggests that maybe whatever I read or watched was referencing the cartoons, rather than the comics. DB, as entertaining as they can be, generally sources whatever favors their desired outcome. If it was TVTropes or Wikipedia, they might not have referenced the source or I might have forgotten.

My mistake.

My mistake.

True, but wasn’t he also the only human (or otherwise, I think) to dodge Darkseid’s eyebeams? Admittedly it would take willpower to get to the point of being physically able to do so, but from what I understand of the eyebeams, also quite a bit of luck.

Supposedly this is why tic tacs, which are almost 100% sugar, can claim to be sugar free.

Possibly the hypothetical power hadn’t manifested, or maybe had done so only in part, at that point.

A long time ago, I read that his superpower was, or was theorized to be, luck. No idea if that’s canon anywhere.

At least here, there’s what I think are called “good Samaritan” laws that state no one may be charged if one is in an altered state of mind while calling about an overdose. Every example I’ve ever encountered has been specifically about an overdose, but I would think doing a good deed despite the risk would grant some leeway, from the court if not the cop.
