Odd Combinations

You know it wasn’t until I fought Spite at Wagner Mars Base that I realized how many lost children end up on Mars.

Maybe it was the base becomes a human colony? (searching for justification)

I think Baron Blade in any environment except Mars is confusing. Wouldn’t he kill himself if he crashed the moon into his own planet?

See, Baron Blade on Mars confuses me. Is he dropping Phobos and/or Demos on the heroes? If he succeeds in dropping the moon, why does everyone just stop, otherwise? They could be rationalizing that humanity’s down to the 3-6 of them, I suppose, but would that necessarily stop, for example, the vendetta between Blade and Legacy?

[/quote]He’s dropping the Moon on Earth, which would wipe out all life. After that, the heroes could probably still beat him up, but what’s the point, really? Blade has won, and the heroes, tasked with guarding the population of Earth from evildoers, have failed.

Blade doesn’t think crashing the moon into the earth will wipe out all life. He thinks it will wipe out MOST life, while he remains safe in his bunker deep in the bowels of Atlantis or whatever. He will then proceed to rule the rest of civilization. You can’t really expect a whole lot of logic from mad scientists. They are mad, after all.

He’s a mad scientist, so yeah… ;D

Baron Blade is crazy, and all of his schemes are to one extent or another self destructive.

In terms of Spite… see… there was this colony ship that crashed, and the survivors formed a commune in an abandoned Mars base. Then! Spite, the serial killer was sent into exile in space… you get the idea

Seriously, it’s comic books - you can justify any of them being in any environment. Happens all the time in DC and Marvel… 8)
