Some sort of hologram? <br /><br />In the original run of <i>Doom Patrol</i>, a baddie called the Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man threatened the new version of Robotman by transforming into a swarm of gnats (ummm...) which tried to fly through the android's "ears" to attack his human brain. (Robotman actually <i>panics</i> at this, which was pretty wild for a superhero funny book even in the '60s.) Being an impressionable and ignorant child at the time, not only did I not realize that Robotman's hearing would be completely electronic, I became highly paranoid that my ears were an open pathway to my unprotected brain.BillyWitchDoctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311279565432013472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-6214545235601469482017-06-16T02:12:45.094-07:002017-06-16T02:12:45.094-07:00I'm … just going to try not to think about the...I'm … just going to try not to think about the comic-book science here.
