Subject: Action Figures

Written By: Scholes on 02/27/04 at 10:43 a.m.

Although Superman was invulnerable, two things had an affect on him:  green kryptonite, and red kryptonite. I have a bet on that green kryptonite increased his strength, while red kryptonite took his powers away. It'd be great if someone out there agrees with me.

You might be the only one.

Wrong on both counts, Scholes. It was the other way around. Sorry. ;)

"Green Kryptonite: weakens and eventually kills super-powered Kryptonians. Usually harmless to other races, but one story in Brave and the Bold had a device used which resulted in Terrans being affected similar to Kryptonians."
"Red Kryptonite: Causes a specific, odd, effect. Often involved physical transformations or mental changes. Each chunk had a different effect, and could only affect a given Kryptonian once. Effects usually wore off in 24-48 hours. Created when Green K passed through a space cloud."

I love watching the show "Smallville" and have noticed that the red Kryptonite makes Clark into a bad guy.
