    I mean… Marvel has clearly shown that in their world mutations just unlock some sort of magic. None of the X-Men powers make any sense in a world where conservation of mass / energy is a thing, the only possible explanation is that those genes unlock magic potential, so it’s not breaking internal logic, that a specific mutation unlocked some kind of anger-magic in Dr. Banner.

      True, though I didn’t mean I had a problem with it.

      Just that a supposed scientist finding there’s a gene that just lets you break physics and nobody of authority in-universe really commenting on entire branches of modern science being scrapped is too much of a stretch in logic for some.

      Marvel has clearly shown that in their world mutations just unlock some sort of magic.

      This never gets mentioned, but I wonder what responsibility Marvel bears for the generally low level of comprehension in our society of how evolution by natural selection actually works.
