Just What Kind of Evidence is JJ Turning Up?

For some characters, it's easy. She could be revealing a secret identity (Daredevil, Spidey), exposing someone who's a more hidden type of villain (Hood or Kingpin), or showing that someone's not as squeaky clean as they might want to be seen (Dark Avengers).

But what about the out and out, completely unrepentant, openly villainous characters? What is she going to dig up about Thanos or Carnage (or some of the Bosses, like Galactus or Apocalypse) that's actually going to be harming them in any way? There really isn't any kind of atrocity that's going to substantially lower people's opinion of someone who's already tried to eat their entire planet multiple times or kill off a substantial percentage of the population of the entire universe. Or is it something that would kill their rep with the other villains or make them less threatening? Like maybe Thanos secretly runs a no-kill animal shelter and spends his free time bottle-feeding orphaned kittens or something?

    Doc Ock: not an actual doctor
    Doctor Doom: actually a dentist
    Should maybe swap these two, since it's canon that Doom dropped out of college before getting his doctorate ;)

    Some of these are making me wish I could draw, so I could do an MPQ version of the Misleading Names Bird & Moon comic.

    Venom - Not actually poisonous?
    I was just randomly reminded: Venomous and Poisonous are actually distinct terms in biology. In my favourite phrasing, if it bites you and you die, it's venomous. If you bite it and you die, it's poisonous. The term that covers both is "Toxic*".
    Thanks for the correct terminology.  I'll therefore change mine to "Venom - Not actually Venomous?" :wink:

    Fun fact: In his very first appearance, Galactus did not wear pants, just a miniskirt-. In later Printings they were colored in though.

    Apocalypse appeared on the Weakest Link and lost.

    Loki isn't really a god, he is an Insurance salesman named Bob (but he is good at lying).

    The Sinister Six are not really a group of villains, they are a Dungeons & Dragons group.

    Magneto's helmet doesn't really protect him from mental attacks, he just wears it on bad hair days.

    Juggernaut can in fact, stop (and Jessica has the photos to prove it).

    Mordo *still* can't pull a rabbit out of a hat, no matter how hard he tried.

    Sentry is actually Fabio's long lost twin brother.

    Mystique doesn't really have blue skin - she just likes looking like Smurfette.
