The great quotes of: Plastic Man

[@Memerath]

“And that he’s more concerned with being comic relief than anything else.”

[@grummdoesstuff2983]

Ah, Plastic Man, the most terrifying hero in DC comics. Completely indestructible, able to subconsciously control every atom of his body, impossible to predict, impossible to contain, able to get into anywhere, or in some cases, anyone, that he wants. Killed the Flash from the inside out, nearly killed Wonder Woman and Superman, defeated an intergalactic entity that could counter any opponent simply by being to dumb to have a counter. All held back only because he prefers being funny over being feared.

A comic of Plastic Man that quickly became one of my favorites after hearing about it on some other videos about him was when he was tracking a gang and they found out about it and had a meeting to figure out something to do. But the thing is that everything in the meeting room was red and yellow (Including several gang members clothes) so they got extremely paranoid and thought that Plastic Man was in the room. Then they turned on each other and made so much noise trying to break everything that the police were called and they were all caught. The twist at the end is that Plastic Man's alarm didn't go off so he slept in and missed his stakeout that day so they ruined themselves over nothing

[@llmkursk8254]

Sounds like hell. Imagine animating anything and everything… *shudder*

[@tkhero7045]

​@llmkursk8254 while I dont have much experience as a 3d animator I would think animating a character like plastic man is actually easier than animating something that has to remain rigid and unchanging through a movement like running. This might be why during the early days of animation rubberhose type characters were much more common. Even Disney required 3 years or so of training to realistically portray a human (just compare the animation "the goddess of spring" to snow white).

[@ihavekalashnikovyoudomath9275]

To this day Batman admits that he really has no means of stopping plastic should he go rogue other than freezing him which would only be temporary, sending him through a black hole or alternate dimension which doesn't guarantee his destruction only that he's not in our universe, and somehow using his own powers against him.

Plastic man is aware of how powerful he is, which is why he reacted the way he did. He knew the robot was wrongly judging his abilities, but it just hurt his feelings a little.

[@MrJinglejanglejingle]

@@invicibla2353 Can he? ...Yes. Would he? Probably not. He'd probably be having too much fun goofing around. Like, if Goku *somehow* convinced Plas to not hold back... He'd kill Goku with ease. He's completely immortal, the only way to slow him down is with extreme cold, and if he so much as *touches* you, he can stick to you like glue, slither up your body, and get inside you like he did to The Flash in Injustice. So, yes. He could. But, in the end... He wouldn't.

I love that the internet is in love with plastic man now after all all time. I think one of the reasons is that he is doing good not because he feels like he should, like as I some sort of moral obligation, but because he likes it and has fun being good-despite his past. I think that's why Superman genuinely seems to not be bothered by him, and indulges him here in the photo, because-he doesn't take himself seriously and just is doing what he needs to do. He could be a TREMEMDOUS threat, but as the person he became-being evil just ain't in the cards for him now.

[@leirawhitehart1236]

Ah, Plastic Man~ He was always my favorite partner for Batman to team up with in Brave and the Bold. Not only is he really funny and has a fun personality, but I think his backstory is incredibly interesting; as someone who was once an evil henchmen, now trying to redeem himself with his new powers, but struggling with his own greed even as he's trying to be a superhero and save the day. It's both funny to watch (mainly because of the comedic presentation of his greed), and also a really engaging flaw to overcome. The only thing I don't particularly like about him is his costume, because it kind of reminds me of an old timey bathingsuit for some reason. Other than that, he's definitely my favorite. ❤ I also think I prefer Tom Kenny's voice for him over Dana Snyder.

[@YaGameboey]

So he has Mr. Fantastics ability but in advanced and Deadpools comedy and almost-immortality. That's OP in sooo many levels.

[@jasonchiu272]

"Mr. Fantastic's ability but in advanced" could just be summarized by rubber hose Toon character.

[@RotaAbyssian]

Even beyond Fantastic, honestly. The closest stretcher to Fantastic in DC is The Elongated Man. Plas can do what they can't, and that is make holes in his body. He's a full on shape shifter. Hell, him making himself bigger adds proportional mass to make him stronger as well. He can turn into a fully functional blimp and car! Plastic Man is AWESOME.

Well as Batman once put, he usually spends time being comic relief, given he has total control over his body and can virtually be anything he wants.
