If i discovered my childhood rival was also Superman I'd be pissed too The Justice League Conduit is a fun idea i can imagine this guy hating all of them for being better than him at one thing or another Batman for his brains, Flash for speed etc

[@SkullRy_Comics]

It would feel like hes been laughing at me, making me think I was almost winning when I was never even close Conduit and Promethius would be Pals after that I think

[@Bluekazoo234]

@SkullRy_Comics Conduit would've been a prime applicant for the legion of doom if hed been a team player

[@SkullRy_Comics]

​@@Bluekazoo234shame that he wants to be number 1 alone, clearly he could use a good buddy

I wonder why they went for the cyborg look when Conduit's powers are radiation based Wouldn't a misshapen monster have been more fitting?

[@SkullRy_Comics]

Its weird I know The cia did experiment on Kenny as seen last video, but here he does specifically mention he grew them so I dunno ya know but I like it, we've got Doomsday for that anyway Conduit kinda was a big monster in the final battle before he burns out I suppose

[@cyberr23]

@@SkullRy_Comics I guess Doomsday does fill that niche already but still, why cables for kryotonite? Maybe if he turned like a green crystal skin?

[@srstriker6420]

Thanks for bringing that up because I honestly think that his hate for the Hero is kinda more justified and you wonder why they used him more often as he only got a cameo in Superman the animated series in the new kids in town and Man of Steel as he was the kid who pulled Clark out of the car in the flashback. Imagine he was part of the Cadmus arc in Justice league unlimited as a field agent and I was thinking of that Spider-Man in Electro’s body I was thinking of what if Peter was bitten by a radioactive lizard?

[@SkullRy_Comics]

Yeah, I understand why Kenny is fuming because its like Clark's been taking the piss letting Kenny think he had a chance to win when he never did A lot of cool superman baddies haven't had much of a chance in adaptions, movies stick to Zod and Luthor but Conduit would make a cool change, you could tie it into a superman origin film too and show them both growing up together That's a boss idea because following the rules from the spider, the amazing Lizard -Man would still have Peter's mind and a human body with added lizard powers Dr Connors could be The Spider and instead of one arm he'd have eight haha

[@srstriker6420]

@@SkullRy_Comicsexactly the Peter being bitten by a lizard instead of a spider like I would imagine his costume being like Copperhead from Justice League Unlimited series with a robot tail and that costume is green and blue instead of red and blue. Also Superman doesn’t have an enemy at work like Spider-Man has.

[@SkullRy_Comics]

​@srstriker6420 that sounds great, a tail instead of webshooters would be funny, how's he hiding that from aunt May He can still wallcrawl too, but maybe he's got poison spit or fangs or something? True, everyone at the planet seems to love both Clark and Superman

[@cyberr23]

​@srstriker6420 lizard man sounds like a cool idea, good one @SkullRy_Comics you gonna make a vid on it?

[@SkullRy_Comics]

@@cyberr23 I would but I don't wanna steal SRstriker's cool idea I've got other ones planned though

Whys the music 90% Dragon Ball? Not complaining obviously, just curious

[@SkullRy_Comics]
