Hence Snapper Carr, etc.
Let's just forget that bit, shall we? DC already has.
It's been hinted that Queen Titania might be Tim Hunter's mother, hence the prodigious talent for magic.
True. I just recall everyone being creeped out by Fate being out.
Still, a number of heroes were completely unaffected, such as Robotman, Starman (Will Payton version, because he had become entirely not human,) All the Green Lanterns, Martian Manhunter, and of course, almost anyone entirely without powers (although the virus CAUSED a few people to manifest latent powers, such as Max Lord.)
although the way it manifests can create powers appropriate to the triggering stimulus, or the individual's personality, or (more ridiculously) their names.
That's worse than midichlorians.
The Ultimate-verse seems to be expanding mutancy -- Spiderman's some sort of forced mutation -- is that true in normal Marvel?

Well, regardless of whatever the metagene had to do with him (them?), you really don't want someone who can turn people into newts with a blink to be having seizures and psychotic episodes.
What about Jade?
Lamarckian magical powers, though they've since hinted that she might also have inherited something from her mom.
The Dominators really miscalculated in that almost all of earth's REALLY powerful heroes (Superman, Wonder Woman, J'onn J'onzz, all the Green Lanterns) weren't affected by the bomb.

Not really, but it makes far more sense than otherwise, because really, I can't see how there would be a fundamental genetic difference.
Justice League Unlimited! With
Supergirl, Green Arrow, and Some Other Guy
!! Plus brand new Teen Titans! Tonight!
So I read
Tim Drake, Boy Stalker
today. I loved all the Two-Face business, especially the mindgame between him and Batman as they both try to play each other while admitting their being played. And of course, he's the perfect villain for a story that focuses on recreating the Dynamic
Duo.
I'm still finding it really hard to imagine a twelve-year-old fighting crime, though. It'd be like Encyclopedia Brown getting his name by throwing encyclopedias at his enemies.
I dreamed about the DC-verse last night, particularly Bats and Tim, but also some Kon and Kid Flash and Babs.
I blame Plei. (Though the fact that I was reading TT right before I fell asleep is probably the immediate cause.)
Teppy -- TT question based on tonight's episode and the fact that I've only seen a few previous episodes. Was tonight the only time that Tara (Terra?) was on the show?
I missed tonight's episode, dang it! Because I was busy puking in public (see Bitches for the full story) and forgot to set my VCR. But no, she was in 2 episodes last season.
