"I have walked hundreds of billions of miles across this Earth... across time and space... through the blinding light of the Elysian Fields... and the darkest depths of pandemonium... where the stench and despair of the chaoplasm is always a potent reminder of how far man can fall. I am The Phantom Stranger. And The Stranger comes... when The Stranger is needed." -The Phantom Stranger
Out of all the fantastic, unfathomable wonders in the DC universe, there is a single mystery that stands out among the rest- a lone, cloaked anomaly who has managed to subtly sneak his way across every single event of significance in the multiverse's history. Nobody knows who he is, what he wants, what he is capable of, or where he comes from. All we have is a name. He calls himself The Phantom Stranger, and he claims that he arrives to defend the greater good, when he isn't just standing back and watching from the sidelines. There are a handful of conflicting, unreliable stories to back up these claims, but sometimes, stories are all you need. Stories are some of the most powerful things ever created. And in this episode, Tyler explains how they all fit together. It's time to finally put this secret to bed once and for all. It's time to unravel the power of stories. A journey across time, space, and the entirety of DC continuity, will finally answer one of the biggest questions in comic book history: Who is The Phantom Stranger?

"Hope is like the sun. If you only believe in it when you see it, you'll never make it through the night." -Leia Organa
The Imaginary Axis is back! With a new spin on a timeless question! It's the unstoppable force versus the immovable object, as one of scifi's most famous super weapons finally clashes against the Man of Steel!
"You know what I know. That gods have never created or cared for anything. Except themselves." -Gorr, The God Butcher
Those who occasionally peek toward the sky from Midgard's Earth tend to think of Thor as a hero, a warrior, a God of Thunder! ...But could Marvel's "strongest Avenger" be hiding something more sinister beneath his charismatic grin that he's mastered? Depending on who you ask and how you approach the question, you might be surprised. Some people throughout the universe are terrified of him. Or appalled. And they aren't without their reasons. Or are they? How do one thousand years of hero work stack up against all of the blood that heaven has on its hands? Today, we make a case once and for all. And by the end we will finally know... Was Gorr right?
"I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was." -Pokemon Theme
The Pokemon World is a place where legends are made... Literally every generation. From Red and Blue to Sword and Shield, people having been trying their hands at the Pokemon League for over 25 years now! It's resulted in a lot of champions, a lot of tough Pokemon, and a lot of tough battles. We've all racked up our fair share of wins and losses, but when you really put everything in order- from one story to the next- which Pokemon Trainer really stands on top as being the greatest of all time? Whose journey is the most impressive? Whose team has the strongest Pokemon? And most importantly, who would beat who in an all out battle? Today, Tyler sets out across the Pokemon multiverse yet again to find answers. Join us on our adventure to finally find the very best Trainer, like no one ever was!
"Of all the creatures in the vastness of the universe, there is none like me. I was present at the birth of the universe, and I shall be there at its end. Though I ravage worlds to live, I bear no malice toward any living thing. I simply do what I must to survive. And why must Galactus survive? For, no matter how many worlds I devour... How many civilizations I destroy... It is my destiny to one day give back to the universe– infinitely more than I have ever taken from it. So speaks Galactus!" -Galactus
The legend of Galactus is perhaps the most well known myth throughout the vastness of the Marvel cosmos. Reports detail a colossal world ender who was once a regular mortal in an era long before our own. Technically, he is the most ancient thing in the universe, and his power is unrivaled. When he sets his sights upon your planet, the battle is already lost. He will arrive from the stars and dismantle your entire biosphere for sustenance, absorbing the surrounding layers of rock and atmosphere afterwards like a glutton licking his plate. He acts with impunity- without order, reason, or biases- but could there be more than meets the eye when it comes to this tale of cosmic destruction? What's the real reason behind it all? What exactly is it that drives Galactus to keep on living? What would it take to kill him? And what might be the consequences of such a drastic decision? You might be surprised. Tyler is here to make the case that Galactus might be doing more good than you realize. But it's going to take some serious analysis before we can say anything for sure!
"I am the revelation! The tiger-force at the core of all things! When you cry out in your dreams... it is Darkseid that you see!" -Darkseid
Throughout the entirety of the DC multiverse, one name strikes fear into the hearts of mere mortals more than any other. Today we put the final pieces together in the puzzle that is Darkseid. Where does he come from? Why is he so powerful? Exactly how powerful is he anyway? And is it possible to beat him? The answers might seem obvious at first, but don't be fooled! The stories you've been told are hiding more than a few key details. Real answers are worth fighting for... and boy, is this going to be a fight. Join Tyler in another journey across time and space to solve the greatest mysteries in fiction using real life science, math, philosophy, and source material! There's only one rule to keep in mind for today's trip: Darkseid is.

"When I'm done... half of humanity will still exist." -Thanos
When it comes to bad guys, the Marvel universe has no shortage of villainous evil doers with ambitions of grandeur and destruction, but one titan in particular has always stood above the rest. Famed for his numerous brutal and unrelenting quests toward omnipotence, Thanos is quite possibly one of the most dangerous *and successful* villains in all of fiction. His expeditions with nigh-omnipotence are SO notorious that one can scarcely even mention relics like the Infinity Stones without his name coming up. But it all leads to a few unanswered questions. Exactly how powerful can this single mad warlord become? And in those few occasions when he actually *does* manage to grasp the infinity, how can we stop him? There are certainly no shortage of propositions available for this particular subject, but as usual, Tyler has the most thorough dossier he could compile ready for the question. And he plans to put this question to bed once and for all.

"We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings.” -Jon "Doctor Manhattan" Osterman
There's been a disturbance in the DC multiverse as of late. Space and time itself seem to be in jeopardy through the actions of a mysterious meddler from beyond existence, and many fingers are pointing to the nigh-omnipotent Doctor Manhattan. The truth...? Yeah, that's proooobably right, but in his original story, the good doctor was just a simple matter manipulator among street heroes. The entity DC is dealing with seems to bend reality to its very will with no clear limitations. Could this really be the work of America's quantum superman from an entire franchise away? Studies suggest the odds are once again on our side! But this time, it will take more than science to explain away our newest god on Earth! A dash of philosophy, a pinch of String Theory, and one solid origin story courtesy of Tyler and The Imaginary Axis! Just what the doctor ordered!

"Maybe some stories are so good... so powerful... so wanted... that the universe believes them. So good they're magic. So good they come alive." -Loki
Ragnarok is perhaps one of the most powerful and cataclysmic events in all of recorded myth or history! A battle spanning all nine realms of the cosmos, destined to take the universe down with it! Gods are born. Gods die. Loki, Thor, Asgard, and even the All-Father himself face immeasurable peril as everything comes to an end in one final battle! .........Let's talk about why it's not such a big deal.
“They call me Ghost Rider. I am summoned when innocent blood is shed... and you have shed much innocent blood.“ -Ghost Rider
The Ghost Rider is one of Marvel’s most recognizable horrors, but exactly how horrible is he? He might be scarier than you think, and by exploring fear itself, we can come up with more than a few reasons to be afraid of the living skeleton with pyrokinesis... well... more than the obvious, anyway. Join us on a journey of psychology, superpowers, and superstition to determine exactly what makes us feel shivers up and down our spine... Oh! And Happy Halloween!

"The Endless? The Endless are merely patterns. The Endless are ideas. The Endless are wave functions. The Endless are repeating motifs." -Destruction
The DC multiverse is filled to the brim with heroes, gods, demons, and monsters, but on the very edge of Creation lives a small pantheon filled with some of the most powerful entities to ever exist. Today, we use what logic we can to explore these mysterious deities that stretch the imagination to its limit. It's time for philosophy to take over as we finally reach a realm beyond what we know as science.

"Before creation itself, there were six singularities. Then the universe exploded into existence, and the remnants of these systems were forged into concentrated ingots... Infinity Stones." -The Collector
The Infinity Stones are some of the most sought after items in the Marvel universe... but why, exactly? How powerful ARE they? What can they do? And where did they come from? On this episode of The Imaginary Axis, we tackle all of that and more as Tyler explains some of the surprising real implications of having access to gems with endless power.

"I'm afraid. I'm afraid that the Joker may be right about me. Sometimes I question the rationality of my actions. And I'm afraid that when I walk through those asylum gates... when I walk into Arkham and the doors close behind me... it'll be just like coming home.” -Batman
Since we've already tackled the Joker, maybe it's about time the Dark Knight had a psychological evaluation himself. Does anybody else find it strange that a billionaire playboy philanthropist dresses up as a bat every night and fights criminals on the street? Apparently seeing your parents murdered in front of you can have some strange effects on the psyche. Join Tyler in another trip to the clinic as we look through Batman's life and actions to see if he might be just as loony as the villains he puts away every week.

"If you can't win the game... if you can't solve the puzzle... then you're just a loser." -N
In the world of "Death Note", Kira is god- a seemingly omnipotent entity with the ability to decide who dies and how. Only the smartest might even suspect that the killings ultimately tie back to a very dedicated young adult with an otherworldly notebook and a strong sense of justice. The series follows Light Yagami as he puts his genius mind to work, dodging police suspicion and killing off criminals in order to create a perfect world. His actions raise a lot of questions about the true meaning of "justice" and how humans respond to death... But perhaps an even bigger question is "Would he still be able to pull this off in modern society?" Join Tyler at The Imaginary Axis for a journey through culture and recent history to uncover the surprising argument about why even the greatest serial killer from 14 years ago might be a minor nuisance today... and why that should scare you even more.

That's what I was going to write on the case... Do you think Captain Levi would have fallen for it? Well, you can't blame a guy for trying to help out. Sending video tapes through time and space is easy, but sending a TV is pointless. I've tried it at least four times. It never works out unless they already know what a TV is. And even then, the omniversal mailing system never handles packages right. If they break the stupid thing, it's impossible to get your money back because they have 1,000 different rules on how to wrap the TV. It's just not worth the hassle. Rant over. Hope you like the video!

The Hulk is often treated as a monster of pure, unbridled destruction! And there are a plethora of good reasons for that title. As one of the strongest Marvel characters out there, it can be hard for him to even walk down the street without flipping some cars or shaking the entire block. But what happens when we crank that destruction up to eleven? When we decide it's time to explore just how destructive the Hulk can get? Go inside and block your windows because the fights we're about to show you will blow even the most dedicated fans away! Literally! And maybe... the rest of the world too.

"True, I am infinite and eternal. But even I shaped by forced external to me." -The Presence
DC is a very big place full of very powerful characters. Superheroes, super villains, angels, demons, gods. But as is always the case, there must be one person who stands above the others- one entity so powerful and so mind-bendingly impossible that the imagination shutters at its mere presence. But even at the pinnacle of this comic book multiverse, the narrative has not exactly made it easy to figure out WHO holds that title. Join us on a tour of beings that bend the multiverse for fun and juggle infinity in their free time as Tyler tries to decide which one truly stands above the rest.
"With great power comes great responsibility." -Ben Parker
There are a lot of superheroes in the Marvel universe. Hulk, Thor, Iron Man, but when you think of real powerhouses, do you ever consider... Spider-Man? It turns out having the proportional strength of a spider can really come in handy when mixing it up with supervillains! But there might be more to Peter Parker's skill set than meets the eye... When you really start crunching the numbers... There's something AMAZING going on underneath all of that radioactive blood, and The Imaginary Axis is here to help us explain what that is!
If there's one thing you'll learn from hanging out with the Guardians of the Galaxy, it's who exactly Groot is. Groot is a pretty open guy, and he'll probably tell you without even being asked. But could one of the most obvious truths about the Guardians actually be a lie in disguise? What if Groot isn't actually Groot? What if Groot has been dead for a long time now? Can we really trust this "Baby Groot"? And if we don't, is there really any way to prove that he's lying? What makes a person a person anyway? You can't quantify the soul, can you? Today, on the Imaginary Axis, philosophy and science combine to bring you the ultimate answer! Who IS Groot?
"Life is locomotion. If you're not moving, you're not living." -The Flash
The Flash is the fastest man alive! And what else would you expect? With an energy source like the Speed Force at your side, you could be the fastest man (or woman) alive too! ...But that doesn't make much sense, does it? The Flash isn't like Batman or Captain America. You can't always count on the same man hiding beneath the mask. In fact, over the years and through the multiverse, there have been DOZENS of Flashes! The Speed Force is hardly a private commodity! But obviously, every person who uses it cannot be "The Fastest Man Alive", so what gives? Who is the REAL master speedster? Faster than light. Faster than a tachyon. Faster than a Planck Instant. It almost seems like the only person fast enough to challenge the Flash... is the Flash.

He's the best he is at what he does. And what he does is survive. Is there any way to penetrate that adamantium armor that keeps him around?

“When I was a little boy I wanted to be a hero. Not some business man. But a superhero who could send rotten villains like you flying with one punch.” -Saitama
They say reality is stranger than fiction... and maybe it is, but it definitely isn't STRONGER than fiction! Our modern day mythology is filled with so many over powered heroes and villains that sometimes it gets difficult tell who is capable of what. And perhaps the single best example of this dilemma is Saitama from the popular One Punch Man franchise- a hero who has still yet to struggle against a single opponent, despite being featured across three different realms of media. What can he do? What CAN'T he do? Is there any definable limit on his strength? And where does it all come from? Today, we embark on a journey across physics, biology, and... literature...? to finally uncover the truth about Saitama's power! And believe it or not, but you might have already encountered a few hints to the answers already. ;)

"With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick!" -Clement Clarke Moore
Every year, on the 25th of December, good girls and boys around the world wake up fascinated (and more than a little excited) to find Christmas presents scattered beneath their Christmas trees. Some find additional goodies in their stockings or beneath the fireplace, all attributed to a mysterious gift-giver who calls himself "Santa Claus"... or "Saint Nick"... or "Kris Kringle"... or... "Old Man Frost"? ...Something's fishy about this globe-trotting saint. He's been giving presents to children for over 1,700 years now, and to this day, no one is quite sure how. This has led to endless questions about the magical man and his North Pole operation, but recently, the truth has gotten so muddled that certain people aren't sure if he exists at all! This time on The Imaginary Axis, we seek to put an answer to this riddle once and for all. Who is Santa Claus? Where did he come from? Is he a man or a myth? And most importantly, how does he manage to get presents to billions of children every year? Finding the truth will require detours through physics, history, and the very heart of Christmas itself, but rest assured there IS an answer. All those gifts have to come from somewhere.
"Who are you within this vast multiverse?" -The Ancient One

Every conceivable past, present, and future of the characters you know and love, along with the characters you don't know and hate. How do they exist? Why do they exist? And what happens if their existence gets a little out of control? Strap in and DON'T PANIC!

"I don't hate you because I'm crazy! I'm crazy because I hate you!" -The Joker
There are few mysteries Batman struggles to solve, but the most famous case is easily that of the Joker, a homicidal serial killer obsessed with matching the Dark Knight in every equal but opposite way imaginable. He's a dangerous murderer intent on bringing chaos to the world with his own unique brand of madness! The Joker is so unhinged that even in a universe as big as DC's, some of the most diabolical supervillains in existence try to avoid him! ...But are they being played? Are WE being played? Join us for the world's funniest psychoanalysis, as we dive into one of the most twisted and uncharted realms the Imaginary Axis has yet had the pleasure of dividing: The Joker's mind.

"Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry." -Dr. Banner
No one quite knows what it's like to be Bruce Banner. Turning into a monster can be pretty stressful (especially when the monster is brought about by stress itself), but we all experience it to some degree. If you've ever been in a fight for your life, a passionate debate or even a traffic jam, you might have noticed you're a bit more energetic than usual. Your body might be capable of more than you think! But only if you get angry first. The downside is that we mere mortals are still limited by our flesh and bone. What happens if you take that away? What if your body is flowing with gamma radiation instead of adrenaline and there's plenty to go around? Will you ever stop getting stronger?! And if so, when? Strap in your multiple identities as we take a look at psychology, biology, and the meaning behind emotion to finally figure out how strong the Hulk can get!

Yes, I know siphoning that much gamma radiation from the surrounding environment would be near impossible without use of something like a worm hole or pocket dimension. I also know reverting back into Bruce Banner from Hulk form would level any nearby cities, but this just the only explanation I have, so it's what I've gotta go with. If you have any follow up questions about the process, please direct them to the writer who came up with this explanation to begin with. twitter.com/jeffparker/status/118366163674730499

"We must all live in the real world... and sometimes that world can be pretty grim. But it is the American Dream... the hope... that makes the reality worth living. In the early 1940's, I made a personal pledge to uphold the Dream... And as long as the Dream remains even partially unfulfilled, I cannot abandon it!" -Captain America
If you've ever had a desire to dawn a mask and take on the criminals of the world, you aren't alone! And you don't have to be a fictional character to get away with it, either! ...You just have to put up with all the laws and regulations surrounding superheroes, which begs the question: Is it really legal to be a superhero at all? What are the rules, and should we even have them? Let's answer it together!

"It's not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me." -Batman
Batman is no doubt one of the most capable human beings in all of fiction. A mere man who has dedicated his life to fighting for justice and can now stand among gods as one of the primary protectors of Earth, humanity, and existence itself on occasion. It all started because of a tragedy, but Bruce's will is what ultimately drove him from victim to hero and beyond. What were the steps he took? How much skill did he need? What is he capable of? And most importantly, can we ever hope to achieve the same thing? The Axis might be blurrier than you expect when we finally tackle the unexpectedly crazy life of Bruce Wayne and discover what it really means to become Batman.

"All the power of the storm, from all the world, flows through my veins, and can be summoned by mine hammer at any time, wherever it is. A lightning storm in Japan? Mine. A hurricane off the coast of Barbados? Mine again. A brace of tornadoes in Kansas? Aye...mine. All that might, all that destructive force, mine to command. Channeled and guided through the mystic might of this hammer, guided right at thee!" -Thor
Mjolnir. A name that literally translates to "that which smashes". Forged in the heart of a dying star that nearly destroyed the Earth upon creation. Capable of summoning the winds of 1,000 worlds. Capable of killing gods. Capable of channeling the unmatched power of the god blast. There is no doubt that it is one of the mightiest weapons in the Marvel multiverse. It is so mighty that Odin won't just let anybody wield it. You must prove you are worthy to lift the hammer! ...Unless you're really good at reverse engineering.

"While being trained, a Pokémon usually stays inside it's Poké Ball." -Poké Dex
Feeling old yet? Pokémon turned 20 this year, but there are still quite a few questions we used to ask on the playground that have not been answered! Why are Brock's eyes always closed? Does Billy's uncle really work for Nintendo? And, of course, how are all those aspiring Pokémon Masters fitting life sized monsters into pocket sized balls? Today, we brush up on physics to answer exactly one of those questions! ...Though to be fair, Billy's uncle probably doesn't work for Nintendo.

"He who fights monsters should be careful lest he become a monster himself. When you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into you." -Friedrich Nietzsche
Kirby is Nintendo's proof that you can't judge a book by its cover. Tiny, pink, child-like... but when we look at the book's contents we see... Um... we see........ What ARE Kirby's contents anyway?! Does his stomach ever end? Does his copy ability have any limitations? How does he manage to eat things so much bigger than himself, anyway?! Join us on a research trip that spans time, space, and at least two universes, as we get to the bottom of the most famous bottomless pit in gaming!

1. The fight must have been licensed by DC Comics, Inc.
2. The fight must be between Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne. No other versions of Batman or Superman are allowed.
3. The fight must be direct and last long enough to reasonably be considered a fight.
4. No point will be awarded if the winning party received outside help that was crucial to his win.
5. No point will be awarded if the losing party was not in a reasonable state of mind during the fight.
6. No point will be awarded if the winning party was spared at any point in the fight.
7. Only one point will be awarded per encounter, victories overriding stalemates.
8. Adaptations of pre-existing stories are not considered seperate encounters from said stories.
9. Kal-L's rampage across the multiverse is not considered for simplicity's sake.
10. Any of Superman's victories against the entire Justice League are not considered for simplicity's sake.
11. YES! It is entirely possible- even likely- that I missed a few fights. Please tell me about them in the comment section, and I'll add them into this description. Let's make a complete list together!
Additionally: A crossed out cannon in the upper left corner indicates that the fight in question was never canon.
Exceptions to the Rules:
-'Superman: Red Son' is taken into account, despite it being unclear whether Superman is Clark Kent and Batman is Bruce Wayne. Best to be on the safe side.
-'Tower of Babel' is taken into account, despite the fact Batman's victory was indirect. I simply see no reason the plan would not have worked just as effectively for Batman as it did for Talia.
-'Execution 2001' was counted as a victory for Batman even though Robin's interference was critical to the win. The interference was just so minor that it felt wrong to disqualify Batman on that point alone.

"you're very determined, aren't you? you'll never give up. even if there's absolutely NO benefit to persevering whatsoever. if i can make that clear. no matter what, you'll just keep going. not out of any desire for good or evil, but just because you think you can, and because you 'can,' you 'have to.'" -Sans
UNDERTALE is the new indie game on the block that everyone is going crazy for, but why? It's just a story about a kid who travels through a world of monsters, right? Haven't we all seen that before? ...Or is there something more there? Something more to the story... Something more to the child's motivations... Something more to the player's motivations... What if determination isn't all it's cracked up to be? When psychology and philosophy combine, are you playing the game, or is the game playing you?

"I got a healing factor that makes Wolverine go like, 'Uh, I wish I had Deadpool's healing factor, bub!'" -Deadpool
Man, sometimes it just looks like NOTHING can put Deadpool down for good! Knives? Guns? Bombs? Wolverines? Eventually, you start to wonder if he's completely unkillable... but that's not possible, is it? Thermodynamics guarantee that everything has to fall into disorder eventually... right? Let's dissect one of the most famous healing factors in all of fiction and see if we can find a weakness! The promise of Deadpool and possible homicide is going to take us on a microscopic adventure! Just be careful not to break the 4th wall.

If you think you've fallen on some hard times, just be glad you don't live in the Galactic Empire. Having quadrillions of taxpayer dollars blow up can really put a strain on the economy... Quadrillions? Sextillions? How much was the Death Star again? Can we even calculate the value of something that existed so long ago in a galaxy so far away?

"The most versatile metal in the world, and they used it to make a frisbee." -Ultron
There are plenty of universes out there, and these days it seems like everything is "indestructible". Vibranium, adamantium, Mandalorian iron- it can be stronger than steel and lighter than a feather, but can anything really be unbreakable? We're about to find out.
But why shield yourself with metal when you can dodge?
"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." -Dr. Emmet Brown
In 1989, the classic film 'Back to the Future' made a few bold predictions about life in 2015. Some of them were accurate, some of them were not, but which were the most impressive? What's expected to happen even further down the line? Is time travel possible? And are we sure time travelers aren't messing with the time stream right now? Today, we're in the fortune telling business, and we've got something better than a crystal ball: SCIENCE!

"I can think at the speed of light. I can perceive events that last for less than an attosecond. I can run faster than time. What do I see when I run across the country, Superman? I see everything. And everyone." -The Flash
The Flash is the fastest man alive and perhaps the most iconic speedy superhero in pop culture, but exactly how fast is he? What are the extents of his powers? And what would they imply in real life? Is this scarlet speedster bound by any scientific explanation, or is he just too far across the imaginary axis to make any sense? Well, logical or not, we've got numbers, and there IS a cap on how fast anything can get, so he must have a limit somewhere, right? ...Right?

"Say... That's pretty impressive... for a popsicle!" --Coach Boomer
Over a year later?! Still less time than it took them to finally make a Batman v. Superman movie. Superheroes are a form of escapism. Everyone likes the idea of people who are capable of extraordinary feats or impossible abilities, but for every impressive story, there is a less impressive one. This begs the obvious question... Which is the worst?
SupSci is back, and we've undergone a complete transformation! With better equipment, locations, scheduling, and research, we've even expanded from exclusively superheroes to other important fictional questions! We know you've already got some ready for us, so let us know everything you're interested in on The Imaginary Axis!
How does Superman fly? At Sup Sci, we always get the answer, but first, we decided to see what everyone else thought. It did not disappoint. 0:41- The Giant Balloon Theory 0:50- The He Was Just Born That Way Theory 1:06- The Gravity Reversal Theory 1:24- The Wire Conspiracy Theory (pt.1) 1:30- The Physical Strength Theory 1:44- The Thinking Theory 1:57- The Supernatural Theory 2:07- The Solar Gravity Defiance Theory 2:19- The Wire Conspiracy Theory (pt. 2) 2:34- The Skin Breathing Theory 2:44- The Cape Theory Thanks to all the superhero scientists who sat down and helped us unravel this mystery!

"Everyone in Metropolis looks up in the sky. Sometimes we see him, sometimes we don't. But we always know he's around." --Metropolis Citizen
It's not a bird... It's not a plane... Sure, we all know Superman can fly, but does anyone know how? In most interpretations, Kel-El seems to just reach his arms upward and start propelling through the air without any real explanation. People tend to just shrug their shoulders and say, "He's an alien" or "It's a comic book," but there may be more science to this fiction than everyone realizes. What are the chances that someone could REALLY fly through the stars without a jet or a wing? Do you need to be from another planet or have a different biology to shrug off the laws of gravity? Reality is always throwing us curve balls, and we at Sup Sci are ready for the pitch. Has Superman just been flying for so long that no one questions it anymore?
