A list of favorite weapons in the eternal battle between good and evil.
The one weapon that came off most incredible on film - sorry, Green Lantern ring, but watching you in action never made me feel the raw impact that the suit in the first Iron Man movie inspired in the cave, fighter-evading, tank-bustin'... yeah, the movie was a great ad for Starktech!
"Oh, GL's constructs are closing in - Wings of Needless Sorrow!" "Superman's heat vision! Nnh! Wings of Needless Sorrow! Silver Surfer's -- W.O.N.S.!" Yeah, any energy, the amulet redirects. Even partially defends against magic. When the Sorceror Supreme 'got with the Darkness,' this was his 'piece.' Doctor Strange gave it up when he went good again... but I'm SURE you're strong enough to resist. This is why Gollum's bling ain't here - ooh, I'm invisible and decaying...!
Great weapon - wonder why more people don't mind control him into pulling some great heists?!
Spider-fans know the simple elegance of being able to grab things/people at a distance and pull them close/hold them in place/rearrange them. See: Spider-Man 2 and the trailer for Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions.
What's this weapon destroy? Plants and VIRUSES AND BACTERIA. Superman used it to stop an alien blight afflicting out planet. HOW did they let this into continuity?! "Superman, thanks for all you've done for us, I just wish your brilliant mind could help us progress medically." "Oh, well, I've got a stash of White K, destroys AIDS, Smallpox, Ebola, MRSA - oh and hey, keeps Poison Ivy off my case." "And you've NEVER TOLD US?!" "Yeah, sorry, I just didn't think you'd care that she's tried to seduce me..." "-!" "...but my love for Lois could never allow that..." THANKS FOR NOT BESTOWING YOUR $#%& BALM OF GILEAD, SUPES!!
"Ahm th' Juggahnaut, b*$@#!"
Killer heads-up on whatever is about to happen from this time-traveling robot. If knowing is half the battle, Skeets is 50% of kicking ass. Part of Waverider's body, absorbed the Phantom Zone - you just know if someone with more on the b all than Booster Gold was using him, we'd all be #$%&ed.
"Well, I'm tired of stopping you, so I'm locking you in a hellish prison dimension..." "NO, SUPERMAN, PLLEEEAAASSSEEE! I'll do anything - oh no..." Yeah, Superman SURE is a Boy Scout...
"Hey, GL how's every - hey!" "Sorry, Donna, I've got a willpower problem... Hey, Antimonitor!" "FEEBLE HUMAN!" "Be good from now on!" "EEEE, YES, PUNY MORTAL." "Seriously, Donna, you could persuade Lex to help Jerry's Kids, turn Sinestro and Atrocitus into groovy hippies--" "But, sentient beings should - hey you lassoed me!" "Get...a...freakin'...clue!" "Oh you're so right! Let's save billions of lives the easy way!"
Frankly, it's MacGuyver's lasso. Here's the site description: "...restore people's lost memories, get rid of illusions, heal the holder's body (in this case, Wonder Woman), cure insanity, and people who are in its circumference will be protected from magical attacks. It is unbreakable, being able to hold anybody, even someone with the strength equivalent to Superman. The lasso also seems to be able to increase in length to an unknown degree, depending on the situation. Throughout the years, different artist have depicted the lasso as a simple piece of rope to a fiery, glowing rope which emphasizes the amount of power the lasso can unleash. The lasso also has the quality that any device caught in it maintains its structural integrity despite the pressure of having a a piece of rope wrapped around something. In this way Wonder Woman has been able to hold a submarine, a skyscraper and even the planet Earth in her grasp without those objects breaking. There are only three ways to escape from the lasso, either the bearer releases it, the captured individual dies, or a god or other divine entity releases it. In line with the first method is it possible still to attack the person holding the lasso and force them to release it in this way." Oh, is that all?!
Time Travel, plenty of breathing room, travel to other dimensions.
The Doctor can do anything with this little gem.
No Bat Credit Card, @#%$ "Batman and Robin" movie... Say, why didn't Batman ever get his call up for the Sinestro Corps? The suit definitely inspires fear, features a gold motiff (belt, Inc. logo), and arguably helps Batman rule his city. Sinestro could relate... Best realization? First Batman movie - gadgets are better, of course, in Dark Knight, but best-looking suit was worn by Michael Keaton - see above. Think its b/c it was designed before the annoying "texture fetish" struck movie costumes.
Knuckle down on all who oppose you.
Handy on their own, too, as The Hood can tell you...
Houses a mystical library and many such artifacts. Yeah, it's a location, but I consider it a defensive weapon - plus I'm sulking 'cause 'Zatanna Hat' is apparently NOT magical, or at least not listed on the 'Vine...
Multiverse metal makes Medusa Masks. Say that ten times fast and you get a sense of its power. 'Course, Superboy did use it on Black Lantern Kal-L, so then it got busted with a black ring. The Mask's whereabouts are unknown because I have it. Say that ten times fast... I command you.
Blue Beetle's symbiote Scarab, a creation of the Reach and a living weapon.
Man I love me some scarabs. This mystical one powers users to superhuman levels, forms shields, and, oh, moves entire cities.
You say "Chicks dig the car," you lose a testicle.
I prefer "Batwing"...
Remember "Batman: The Animated Series" and the opening credits? Yeah, 'rang's got bang!
Yes, I guess I have to separate the ring from the lantern. It is a weapon, considering it is designed to channel energy into an intergalactic cop's ring. (But! But! They aren't intergalactic, they have their own sector-" "Shaddup!").
Noooice! Fancy I'll bust a graphic rendering 'cap' in crime's ass! Why isn't there a British GL?!
Makes me spit up a bit, but...
...but I have hope that I can clean it up if I have a GL around.
THAT'S THE PO-WER OF LOVE!
Ehh, Lex liked it - must be good for something.
More something you give a mortal enemy than keep yourself...
Allows you to create a Brightest Day that ends with an incredible anti-climax.
For some reason, the site doesn't have a YELLOW POWER RING! Whaaa?
ahh, there we go...
SHOULD have been what Indy hunted for in Indiana Jones 4.
Hey, Magik loves it, almost like it was an extention of her body...
