In this issue, he quickly realizes that he\u2019s able to shoot out a mini doppleganger of himself from his wrists that acquires all of his powers. Not only is there a mini-Superman, but the little guy gets all of the media attention, while rendering Superman powerless. Finally, Superman Proxy dramatically sacrifices himself to the bad guys. Real Superman gets his powers back. Say what?!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-character_full_preview wp-image-8999\" alt=\"Superman-Proxy\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Superman-Proxy-485x430.jpg\" width=\"485\" height=\"430\" \/><\/p>\n<p>#4: Maggott (<i>Uncanny X-Men,<\/i> #345, 1997): Considered one of the strangest X-Men, Maggott has a superpower that most doctors would consider a gastrointestinal wonder.\u00a0 Maggott\u2019s digestive track takes the form of two slugs that have the ability to eat through any material and receive nutrience. In addition, Maggott\u2019s rich character background as a poor South African child paints a very compassionate, complex character.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"maggott171\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/maggott171-485x430.jpg\" width=\"485\" height=\"430\" \/><\/p>\n<p>#3: Clock King (DC Comic Universe, first debuted in 1947): The Clock King has entered numerous storyline in the DC Comic Universe, including <i>Batman: The Animated Series.<\/i> A dapper man suited up in a three-piece, bowler hat, and pocket watch, The Clock King has the sharp mind of a chess player in predicting his adversary\u2019s moves. He bends time to create holes in the continuum.
