Plastic Man is indestructible, plus he's basically inspiration given form. You can't adapt to his fighting style because he just flows randomly from one form to the next as thoughts occur to him. Add on top of that he can expand his size and alter his density to an almost limitless degree. So, yeah, he's one of the most powerful beings on the planet.

Not Superman though. Superman doesn't need air, and there's absolutely nothing Plas can do to hurt him physically.

Or he could throw him into the sun... There's always that... Guess Supes never does that because it'd be too easy...

[@demitrialmeida651]

Well I know this is old and my understanding of DC is poor, plastic man theoretically could cover Superman's body and slowly drain him of energy and to prevent the frost breath he'd just go into superman's lungs and push out all the air. So without any sunlight (I'm assuming he needs direct contact with the rays) superman would eventually run out of steam and then it becomes a question of can plastic man reform his body enough times.

Plastic Man's been my favorite superhero since the moment I heard of him. He's the only superhero who could be written by Mark Waid, Frank Miller, and Tom Taylor without becoming another faceless, angsty antihero. He could be humorous *and* serious; that's what made this brilliant.

You know, thinking about it plastic man is pretty intense, if I were to say to someone "Here is a character who's only weakness is cold and who can shape-shift at will into basically anything." without telling them it's plastic man that would sound pretty badass. You also have to have a bit of respect for the guy, with his powers he could be an extremely powerful villain if he wanted to, and he would be a vary large threat if he did but he chooses not to be, he chooses to be a good guy even with everything he can do, that and he's actually pretty funny sometimes.

The issue is (At least going by the FF movies), stretching powers look REALLY unsettling in live action.

basically he is immortal and nearly impossible to destroy

[@UCanGetWitThisOrUCanGetWitThat]

I agree. Cause ppl in the comments aren't being detailed. Cause if he's body is made of plastic doesn't necessarily make it indestructible.

[@philliparnesen4493]

I may be wrong, some of this is theory crafting. But a lot of what he is capable of is left intentionally vague. Not because he is a mary sue that will get random new powers, but because the implications of his powers are actually already terrifying. So rather than DEMONSTRATE why plastic man is OP and make him boring, they just hint at it, leave him a joker and leave it to your imagination. A very short explanation is his body violates all of the laws of physics but a more indepth one below. First of all lets go over his immunities. He has no functioning brain, it's inorganic, and made of plastic making him completely immune to telepathy and mind control effects, period. The plastic he is made of is chemically inert, he has no weaknesses(aside from cold), you can't expose him to some special chemical that hurts him like superman's kryptonite. He is not even alive in the technical sense, if you had some power that gave you mastery of living things you could not effect him. He does not age, nor need to eat, sleep, drink, or breathe. He has complete control of his body down to the molecular level, other entities cannot manipulate or alter his body. While his body can be broken into small pieces, the individual molecules he is composed of are indestructible. He can pull himself together from even planetary dispersal (but it takes a lot of time). Presumably, even if he was dispersed too far he has a regenerative factor too and would recover over time (meaning he can never be permanently stopped). He has complete control of his body, even when liquefied, so heat doesn't work. That's just his immunities, not things he is actually capable of. Literally, you are left with freezing and containing him, and that is a temporary solution since he is indestructible, regenerative, and immortal. Now, it's been implied in some comics he can add mass to his body. Increasing both his muscles size and his bodies density at will, allowing him to increase his strength. Meaning if he wants to he can fight like a bruiser, smash and bashing even on par with people like superman with a more durable body. He fought an even more powerful insane version of Martian Manhunter named Fernus to a standstill. In Dark Knights: Metal he became an entire army of monsters. He ENTERED the flash (yes it was disturbing) through his ears, mouth, nose and eyes, suffocating him (could have killed). Superman could go to frost breathe on him, turns out it was just a very thin shell, most of his body liquefied into the ground, wrapped around supermans face so he cant breathe, entered the small capillaries in his lungs, and blocked bloodflow to his brain.... Starting to get the idea?

[@Roam-de-route]

@@philliparnesen4493 thats awesome

Brandon Barrett yeah you are right, it’s more that he through most means is indestructible, when everyone thought plastic man was dead, he was actually in the artic ocean in pieces looking for the rest of himself for 3000 years , he also fought Martian man hunter after he lost his fear of fire.

[@CaptainBadNews]

Plastic Man is woefully underused in comics, TV, and Games, (probably bc he doesn't work without razor sharp/clever writing) so much so he isn't even in Injustice 2?!? I imagine the pitch to add him in the game went something like this: Game designer: "What do say switch out one of the dozens of brawlers we have and put in "PLASTIC MAN?!" "There hasn't been a stretchy guy in any fighting game since Dhalsim in STREET FIGHTER!" "How friggin' cool wh... Mr. Corporate: "NO NO NO!, we NEED MORE batman characters on the roster damn you!"

actually if plastic is heated up then frozen he would mast likely be dead if supper man heated him up with Lazer eyes then froze him he would be in pieces then separating them then he would be stuck .of the could make a lock that heats plastic melting him before he could unlock it. When plastic is melted, it can be molded into different shapes. This process is used in recycling to give new life to used plastic1. However, it’s important to note that not all plastics behave the same way when melted and then frozen. Some might retain their shape, while others might become brittle or change in texture1. Moreover, melting plastic can produce toxic fumes, which can be harmful if inhaled1. Therefore, it’s recommended to melt plastic in a well-ventilated area or with appropriate safety equipment1. As for freezing, it doesn’t typically have a significant effect on the plastic itself. However, if the plastic contains any residual moisture or certain types of additives, freezing could potentially cause some changes2. Remember, it’s always important to handle plastics responsibly to minimize environmental impact and potential health risks. If you’re considering melting and freezing plastic at home, please ensure you understand the safety implications and have the necessary equipment to do so safely

[@ordinarytree4678]

Minetic One could make the argument that because he doesnt make the effort to ensure that supervillains stay in prison, he is responsible for every kill they cause

[@commentscomplaints7799]

Frank Miller's version kinda came off...wrong. If you continued to read the stuff revolving the fight, he does some questionable things, but then again, that entire universe is off so probably not.

[@Connor-ONeill]

pretty sure there‘s a batman who‘s a nazi

[@magneto9210]

Probably. There's the Thomas Wayne Batman from Flashpoint who murdered bad guys with guns like a discount Punisher.

[@rsgaming54]

Superman red sun he's communist. but still not bad

[@TdMe99]

[@RobVanKam]

[@jvclutch]

[@Doobie0113]

Is this collectively.... one of the greatest DC stories ever written? Top 5? Top 10?

[@jimgilbert9984]

This is my favorite issue of the entire run of the series. Plas' introspection throughout the whole thing is what really makes this work. That, and his attitude toward the members of the Regime. And let's not forget that Plastic Man took on the Martian Manhunter on his own, a MM without any restraints whatsoever, and he held his own. Even Superman once said that there were only a handful of people he'd be afraid to fight, and J'onn was at the top of the list, that MM was the most powerful being on Earth. And Plastic Man fought him to a standstill. That's why the Regime was so nervous when O'Brian showed up at their HQ.

[@pL-uto]

someone should make a compilation of Rob saying "....is the best thing coming out of DC Rebirth" 😂😂

[@trevorterpend5393]

Man your content is spot on. Thank you.

[@andyfiggz7890]

God, plastic man was a Savage.

[@Arclath]

Plastic Man in Injustice is the best thing coming out of DC Rebirth right now.

[@Vegas242]

If Marvel and DC ever do another crossover I hope Deadpool and Plastic Man team up

[@Grandflea02]

Those two would be the best comedy duo possible. Both are pretty close to invunerable, so they just say whatever they feel like

[@robcrawford7780]

I love what you do Rob. You're about the only one here on the tube that covers DC comics! And you do it better than anyone. Oh and I'm Rob as well😁😁

[@timithycarrion6627]

[@SHAdaKID]

Wow, Rob you made Plastic Man interesting. Thanks keep up the great work.

[@ammolator]

Why didn't you post the middle finger image plastic man gave to that camera! That was one of the most badass scene ever!

[@Cik334]

I'm happy you went over the annual but I really wish you brought up plastic man make his finger key. That part was hilarious

[@KaizerRay]

can you do a video on plastic man, Rob???

[@DemonLordDagruel]

Everyone underestimated Plastic Man because he always jokes about but under that smile of his he’s crazy powerful and I will say that he’s one of the strongest beings on Earth and one of the strongest member of the Justice League I adore this hero

[@chrisberg7862]

I need Constantine, plastic man, and kilowog in injustice 2. Yeah kilowog "died" but so did black canary and she's in injustice 2

[@Ionreallysleep]

She didn't die she got telephoned away when she was about to die now she's in a different dimension

[@JacobVonRoker]

Plas: Look at him! Hes so evil! He has the mustache for it and everything!! Cyborg: ... Your response, *Sinestro?*

[@cyonisboxbraids]

Plastic man reminds me of Johnny cage

[@michaelbrent854]

Meduse Furgoraura He reminds me of Freakazoid and Deadpool.

[@kenmod4521]

thanks again Rob for another great story

[@muphasashaw8543]

Can you do a comparison with superman and Plutonians downward spirals

[@hhgff778]

I love how he goes in a room full with some of the most powerful heros on Earth and just calls them out, this has to be one of the best and coldest moments in comics.

[@eman216]

This issue was so great!

[@jameswolf5513]

The flash, green lantern and plastic man, are the most underrated but at the same time potentially the best justice league heroes
