Topic: Graviton (comics)


In the News (Tue 29 Dec 09)

  
  Graviton
Graviton has the ability to mentally manipulate gravitons(the sub-nuclear particle that carries the attractive gravitational force between atomic nuclei), enabling him to control gravity.
By rapidly projecting gravitons in a cohesive beam, he can generate a force blast with a maximum concussive force of 4,500 pounds per square inch(equivalent to the primary shockwave of an explosion of 20,000 pounds of TNT).
Graviton is able to exert his gravitational control over a maximum distance of 2.36 miles from his body’s major axis.

Graviton is an extremely powerful villain with the ability to control gravity in the area around him.
Hall is able to manipulate gravitons for various uses, including the projection of concussive blasts, formation of force fields and levitation, and has also proven capable of generating gravitational fields in various objects, making them attract any nearby matter (or individuals) not heavy enough or physically strong enough to resist.

Explanation of the conversion: Graviton's Telekinesis is Area Effect, allowing him to place 100 tons of STR to each hex in the area.
Summoned from the extra-dimensional world he'd been trapped in, Graviton proved why he was considered one of the Avengers most powerful foes by quickly incapacitating both the Thunderbolts and the Lightning Rods.
Powers: Graviton can mentally manipulate the particles of gravitational force for which he is named, increasing or decreasing the force of gravity on any person or object, or applying that force in more complex ways for flight, manipulation of objects and force fields.

 Printer Friendly: Thunderbolts #56 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
While the deaths are the big deal of this issue, it's the reaction of the "heroes" who survived their encounter with Graviton that interested me. In particular, I enjoyed the quick decision by Baron Zemo to turn tail & run right at the outset of the conflict, leaving his "team" to face Graviton alone.
This issue Graviton projects power, with the manner in which he deals with the Beetle being one of the more shocking sequences I've seen in quite some time.
I've always felt that Graviton had the potential to be one of the true heavyweights of the Marvel Universe, and this issue is a perfect example of why I feel this way.

The rematch against Graviton got off to a bit of a rocky start, with Nicieza going for a high body count using ill-defined characters, but this issue is much better.
Zircher gives a real feel for the destruction that Graviton is causing, and I love how Nicieza's script jumps around to various characters, rebuilding a new team from the shattered remnants that have been in the book for the last six months.
The double-page spread of heroes being held in Graviton's grasp immediately establishes how dire the situation is, and I was truly impressed at the scope of characters he chose to use and the accuracy of costume references.

 Chronology, Continuity, Comics and Champions - HERO GAMES Discussion Boards
Comics have attempted to keep there magazines cohesive to the story, while keeping the topics as current as possible (Dazzler and the Hypno-Hustler not withstanding).
The point I am making is that because the comics come out at a rate of once per month, in comic book time, that means that only a few days may have passed in 12 issues, but to keep things current, the back story has to continually be bumped up.
I stopped reading most Marvel comics in the early 90's, because I was sick of classic stories and a very solid continuity being ignored.

 KMC Forums - Graviton VS Hulk
Graviton has been beaten by the likes of Spiderman when he worked with a group, which is huge hinderance since his allies are probably considered more a liability than an asset in such circumstances.
Location: M.T. If Graviton uses his brains and goes for the kill (one clever attack after the other), he has a good chance defeating the Hulk, especially when he keeps his distance - very important.
actually graviton is quite powrful but not very fast, ppl always forget speed, superman is very fast he probably could take him out.

COMIC URBAN LEGEND: John Byrne left Jack Kirby off of the 20th anniversary cover of Fantastic Four.
At the behest of Editor-in-Chief, Jim Shooter, Kirby was removed from the piece (for what reasons, we do not know, although it likely had to do with the arguments at the time over Kirby wanting his older art returned to him, but I honestly do not know what Shooter’s motivations were).

Graviton may not kill Spider-Man as he set out to do, but there's no doubt that he wins the round on points, leaving Peter Parker feeling like quite a loser at the end.

I've not seen the VS ones either, but the A-ko 2 ones are noteworthy for added-in jokes, asides and whatnot that weren't in the video release.
