: : Also, I think Billy should grow up. That
: is
: the one thing about C.M. that I didn't care
: for. Early to mid 20's would in my opinion
: be a deeper character. Also, what has C.M.
: appeared in recently? I don't keep up with
: comics like I used to.

: we've seen him use it as a weapon by moving
: away from it, like in Kingdom Come and in
: Legends.

: But, we've also seen him explore his
: lightning powers by changing his costume to
: add a breathing aparatus to go to Venus. In
: JLA, we saw the magic lightning come out
: with Marvel's punches. So, I think their is
: precendence and some writers/artists have
: moved in that direction. I'm all for it.

: That's one aspect of his power I would love
: to
: see explored and developed more - the power
: of Zeus. What does it give him now?
: Whatever it is, he should get more out of
: it, and it would be fine by me if he could
: cast lightning bolts as a form of energy
: projection.

: As seen in Kingdome Come, Captain Marvel
: clearly has the advantage because Superman
: is vulnerable to "magic" which has
: been said that C.M.'s power comes from.
: However, I have always wondered why C.M.
: cannot control the lightning. He has the
: power of Zeus, yet he can't wield it. I
: think it would be interesting if he could
: control it the same as Superman's heat
: vision. Not only to transform him, but to
: use as a weapon.
