So, is it just me or is this basically Logan Hood? Embittered old legendary character who has outlived his own legend finding purpose and redemption in aiding and defending a young girl who is following in his footsteps.

It's not just a matter of similarities. Disney were really cutting corners on the animation, and several scenes, particularly some of the dance scenes, have characters being animated by literally drawing over corresponding characters' figures from The Jungle Book frame by frame.

Ultimately, Robin Hood is the original Ranger, and we all know there's no right way to do a Ranger.

Something that's inconsistently considered one of Superman's powers is a form of touch-telekinesis whereby he effectively imbues the object he's touching with his own power of flight. That seems to be at least implicitly in place in the 70s Christopher Reeve movies, particularly his flight with...

And how are you being paid for this government contract work without using your real identity? Cheques made out to Megadude LLC? NASA doesn't tend to go with big piles of cash for their contractors. I guess this could work as an alternative to a secret identity, making yourself more valuable...

It's a delicate balancing act. "Rich recluse" gives plenty of reason for you to be unavailable and unfindable at odd hours, but "rich recluse who became rich and reclusive about the same time that Superbatman started operating" might be too much of a clue. And of course, you don't get the...

Gotta wonder how regular Joe Bloggs who's suddenly got superpowers knows what gold deposits look like in X-Ray vision, or where to find high-value asteroids.

Sure, but you're also adding extra vectors for people to investigate you. If someone starts selling off large quantities of gold, people (particularly government tax agencies) are going to want to know where they got it.

If you've the skills to do so anonymously. I don't know about you, but if I tried it, I'd probably inadvertently leave a trail that could lead any decent security agency right to me.

How does that apply for red sun / yellow sun? We are still talking about the real world here aside from this one individual, so we only have access to the one sun. Even finding out about this person being solar powered would be a stretch, since Superman doesn't just power down at night, he has...

Still very much up in the air, but it's starting to feel very much like either a House or Yes Man victory outcome. The NCR are down to just a couple of Rangers in the region, but the Legion aren't much better off - that small divided camp seemed to be pretty much all there were. Victor still...

Unless you're Flash and can access the Speed Force, flying or running at supersonic speeds will generate sonic booms. And while it's not commonly covered in fiction, running that fast is likely to leave a distinctive trail of fractured tarmac. That can potentially open a new can of worms...

Yeah, just took many pieces to juggle for it all to be polished. In my current playthrough I decided to take out the foundry first before going after Gortash, and despite that I still got a message from the Elder Brain afterwards congratulating me on taking him down and bragging that it had...

Now it's truly open sauce.

The thing that gets to me about act 3 is just how densely packed everything is. It makes sense, it's a city, but it feels like I can't go ten feet without encountering something else plot-relevant that I should poke into. It makes it very hard to stay on-task with anything. Heck, even in...

That's SIR Idris Elba Not actually misreading it, but every time it catches my eye, my brain does a moment of trying to work out what the acronym is.

I'm getting into the endgame in my current BG3 playthrough, but the game is starting to feel a little flaky, conversations not launching correctly and characters triggering the same conversation twice over. There's so much to explore in the Lower City, but at the same time I feel like I should...

One thing to bear in mind with this you-as-ordinary-person-gets-superpowers scenario is that if a kryptonite equivalent does exist, you probably don't know about it. Neither does anyone else initially, but between you as average guy with powers versus a whole world's worth of secret research...

It's worth noting that Superman does seem to take serious damage from being thrown into the ground by Ultraman, and seemingly not even at supersonic velocity - it's how the Ultraman fight finishes, leaving Superman struggling to get to his feet. So yeah, this Superman can come to harm from...

Yeah, too late on the edit. I got mixed up as to whether I was quoting you or Umbran.
