    The Thing has entered the chat.

    Daredevil is blind. Stan Lee felt weird about the character, but learned that blind people actually liked him.

    Dr. Mid-Nite was visually impaired.

    Echo is deaf.

    Rose and The Thorn are ‘split personalities.’

    Box from Alpha Flight was wheelchair bound.

    Darkman [one movie] was hideously deformed, as was The Unknown Soldier.

    • Curiously, Deadpool was also deformed and traumatized brutally by a mutant trafficking / enslavement ring, but he takes it remarkably well. Fourth and fifth wall awareness certainly helps.

      IRL, DP would probably be using his mercking to stay one step ahead of suicidal ideation; if he’s not on task, he suffers a psychotic break.

      I was talking about Batman from the viewpoint of someone who can’t overstate enough how little they care about the extended universes of comics.

      Most people who like Batman media don’t really care about The Thing, Boxman, Mid-Tier and the Stiffler. /j
