There is a guy(Libra, Mantis' father) who learned how to cross into alternative universes just from martial arts training.

Steve Rogers was the first but he is one of many Super Soldiers
- Thread starter Slayven
- Start date
Eh kinda i think he had the same formula that halted Black Widow aging but all it did for him was for him to be in ww 2 and 70s adventures
They retcon that though to it wearing off and actually being robots who look like young him

Same here. When Brubaker was writing Captain America, the reveal that BW and WS had an affair during their Soviet days just made so much sense in the overall context of Bucky's retcon into the modern era.
To be fair Captain America powers is supposed to be peak human
That's bullshit though obviously not only does the serum slow his aging and is a handwave why he didn't froze to death because the serum kept him alive
he does stuff that's straight up superhuman like he can dodge bullets by "seeing faster"
With enough diet and exercise you too can break science
Question Slayven , the OP is pinned to the second page as well. Is that a mod only power lol.
You're right. I'm thinking about power creep.

The best kind of spoiler. My interest in this show just kicked into overdrive.
they're really going hard setting up the groundwork for Young Avengers. This queer comic fan could not be more excited.

That's it
He can fight Spider-Man because he's big
They later changed it to Spider-Man just holding back against a normal dude and kingpin just thinking he's strong and when he pissed of Peter he got his shit rocked
In the 90s animated, Into The Spider-verse and the ps4 video game and whatever it's because he's big
I know people love D'onofrio KingPin, but if kingpin ever show up in mcu, I kinda wish he's cg like Hulk
Ah the holding back trope lol.
Superman, Batman, so many superheroes had used that trope, multiple times too.
The hulk origin is also from the Ultimate Comics where everything is related to SSS even Spider-Man and his characters
Getting powers from a blood transfusion is probably my favorite origin story.
Is Patriot still around somewhere? Last I can remember was the creepy ghost version from Gillen/McKelvie Young Avengers and that was a long time ago now.

Yeah if you rope in the new expanded Weapon Plus lore there's a lot of wild "super soldier" attempts outside of the serum.
Abomination has the actual formula but not the Vita-Rays
I was gonna say everyone who uses OZ in the Ultimate universe but I just read it's not directly related
When Doc Ock took over Spider-man's body there's a great panel where Ock rips someone apart, not realizing how strong Spider-man was.
His story should have ended there lol
Sounds like something the US Government would do lmao
Just out of curiosity... is this before or after xenogear?Yeah if you rope in the new expanded Weapon Plus lore there's a lot of wild "super soldier" attempts outside of the serum.
I don't think Batman ever used that lol

Poor girl, you accidentally kill one person and the government wants to cut off your arm
You're forgetting Weapon V? III? VII? I can't remember which one Super Soldier Man-Thing is.
*Edit* - It's Weapon IV!

The moment he accidentally knocked Scorpion's jaw off. Never occurred to him until then that Spider-man could have killed him at any time.

This is true, what do you think will happen when you push a demigod with mental issues?
Correction that was true till the 70's, when Viper(the original male one) shot him up with lethal herbs that interacted with the SSS and gave him true super strength and some of the other enhancements. Don't know if they ever clarified the herb, but I've recently come to think it may have been Wakanda's black Panther heart herb
It's why the other versions using the original recipe never quite matched modern Cap
I've always liked the idea that the heart shaped herb pops up more than its let on. Like it'd be interesting if it turned out that Kraven the Hunter's super strength/age sustaining potion actually had that as a part of it.

Wait, the X is Weapon X is the number and not the letter? I didn't know this. I thought it was just X to be catchy with "X-Men".
Thatd be a fun retcon series, the unknown users of the herb. Panther finds a random supervillain screwed up by it and becomes suspicious if a variant of it made its way out of Wakanda and discovers several heroes and villains who were amped by it
Scorpion looks like an EVA robot unit there. I can't make him out in that panel.
I don't think Batman ever used that lol
Normal people can do that with training in Marvel.
Hell, Heather Douglas is a baseline flatscan human and one of the most powerful telepaths in the MCU with feats under her belt that even outshine Prof X. She got there through training.
Peak Human in Marvel > Peak Human in reality.
I had no idea black widow had a SSS variant in her.
Wow makes me wonder ifnthey address that in her movie because age of ultron teased at it.

Bucky/Winter Soldier
Emil Blonskly/Abomination
Red Skull
They all took a form of the Super Soldier formula, at least in the MCU
