Yeah, if you think about it, both Green Lantern and Plastic Man are only limited by their imaginations. And unfortunately their writers aren't very imaginative.
The reason they gave Plastic Man second, third and fourth chances to redeem himself from being a criminal is because if they didn’t *WHO GON STOP HIM?!*
@@SebastianAlvarado-xf1gu Well, it's cannon. He was a Criminal who batman stopped by accidentally pushing into a weird goo/acid. They let him out, he became a theif, killed some dudes in Prison etc. Eventually he because a goofball league member, but he's intentionally a goofball because it's cannon that they'd fear him otherwise. If he isn't being silly, he knows his friends wouldn't feel completely safe around him. He fought an infected Doomsday nearly single handedly, fought a powered up Martian Manhunter when nobody else could etc. Superman could freeze him, but that's only temporary. He'd always come back.
I’d reckon it wouldn’t be too hard, with Batman’s resources, to build a prison that could contain him indefinitely if it came to that. Simply have Superman freeze him, then transfer him into a prison in Antarctica that is kept completely frozen all the time.
is it even a bot? all the others have unique ones, getting the same point across sure but different and you have to translate that into whatever language they're using to skirt the youtubes auto-detect, some of them didn't even bother like why here why on a fucking superhero skit thing, what about this encourages pedophiles to recruit others what the hell EDIT: there seems to be repeats, a total of 3 distinct ones from what I've been able to find EDIT 2: aaaaand youtube isn't showing me my own message, but allows the other one... are you fucking kidding me?
This isn't even a meme, this is CANON DC LORE In Batman's contingency plan he says that the only thing holding Plastic Man back is the fact he's a goofball He's pretty much completely unstoppable
he can be frozen or melted but that essentially means locking him up forever and making sure that whatever source of heat/cold remains on forever too since his cells arent actually destroyed by that it just makes him unable to reform
Considering the fact that Plastic Man took on Martian Manhunter, was willing to square up with superman, knocked out flash by stretching his fingers down his windpipe and into his lungs, and walked off being reduced to actual molecules and left at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean for centuries ( yes that happened ) it makes sense that not even the Batman can hope to stop him

Fun fact: Plastic Man's first appearance dates back to 1941. He was part of the Golden Age and debuted just 3 years after Superman and 2 years after Batman. Unfortunately the publisher he was under, Quality Comics, went under in 1956. That's when DC obtained the rights to the character along with other quality comics characters like Quicksilver (different from Marvel and older with another 40s debut) who later became DC's Max Mercury (a member of the Flash Family). It's hilarious because the Elongated Man was only created for DC comics in 1960 because the writer didn't know DC had obtained the rights to Plastic Man. Plastic Man is a beyond iconic Superhero who has inspired and continues to inspire within Superhero media. It's a shame that he isn't globally as popular as Superman and Batman. Even if not a direct inspiration, characters like Mr. Fantastic and Luffy have probably been indirectly influenced by Plastic Man.
Fun fact: he's also public domain, at least under US law! Because, they messed up hard renewing those original comics back when renewing copyrights was a required thing, and that includes his first appearances! And since first appearance being PD means the character is PD...
@@Jotari Pretty similar from what I recall! Tho, if you wanted to differentiate them to avoid trademark, you could make them black or a woman! Call 'em Plas(!) instead of Plastic Man if you do the latter probably.
Well when -God- the writer of this slop (his words not mine) shows up threatening to pull the plug and they stave him off by having her say something... yep, definitely a running gag. 😅
Batman: "Wait a minute, weren't you a bankrobber?" Plastic man: "Well weren't you meant to take responcibility on how you accidentally made me this way? I mean what better way for me to turn a new leaf than being on the same team for you to look after me?" Superman: "Wait, you knew this guy before he became like this?" Batman: "Superman it was before we were in any way critical about how people got superpowers, I mean remember the guy that became both of us, because of a goddamn lightning bolt?"
Plastic Man:Wait a minute I know just how to get accepted into The Justice League *Some time later Superman:Wow I have to say you fit all the requirements to join the league. You’re hired “Elongated Man”:Thanks Superman Superman:Yes well welcome to The Justice League Mr.Di- *The real Elongated Man walks in Elongated Man:Hey Supes I’m here for my interview Superman:Wait if you’re here then who’s? *Plastic Man reveals himself Plastic Man:Curses, you may have seen through my ruse this time but I’ll be back! *Jumps out the window
@@eliburry-schnepp6012 Pretty sure these are made from altered/edited screenshots. Perhaps Wally as Flash did not exist back then and they had to use what they have.
The final gag should have been Superman remarking, "Hal, half of us can fly." "You can fly." Then they discover that it's Plastic Man, shaped like Hal.
Plasticman: I also started watching this one anime and man I got so many ideas Batman: I think I know the one! Gomu Gomu no.... Plasticman: Domain Expansion: McDonalds Bottomless Ballpit
Thing is Plastic Man has so many ways to end anyones life, can stretch to infinity and can regenerate from a molecular level. They’re cooked if he gets serious 😂 Superman drew the line at Plastic Man jaywalking 😭🤣🤣🤣
lol Plastic Man isn’t remotely that strong. Hes helpless when he’s molecules (a mage blasted him apart, he survived as molecules but was powerless/immobile for 3000 years and went crazy). Hes been one shot KILLED by a lantern before. A demon lord (either Satannus or Johnny Blaze) one shot him too and Zariel (the League’s angel) had to take Plas to heaven so he could recover and not die. Buddy doesn’t have infinite stretching or molecular control.
@ I disagree. I’m not saying that he’s the strongest ever nor in general. Also, just to be clear, I’m saying he has feats/attributes that make him a formidable opponent if it ever came down to that. His powers are generally only limited to his imagination and temperament, so he's kind of like a power ring personified. His stretching powers have no known limit and can stretch his body to any length or size without constraint. Plastic Man’s body is capable of stretching far beyond the natural limits of human flexibility. He does have control over his molecular structure and can regenerate but the instance in the 3000 years he was immobilized is about the only thing I can agree with you on in this. I looked into this and haven’t found any evidence that he was ended by a Lantern (though if you know let’s hear it). Also, the closest thing to an “end” was an instance in “Plastic Man No More #1” (September 2024) that depicts Plastic Man slowly melting away due to a Death Ray blast, with no known cure. However, this is not explicitly stated as his end, but rather a gradual disintegration. Plastic Man was not ended by Satanus in DC Comics either. Plastic Man was possessed by Satanus’ mask, which granted him immense power, but also put him under demonic influence (Justice League #25, 2011). The League managed to remove the mask, and Zauriel transported Plastic Man to another dimension before helping the League escape Hell. In “Reign in Hell” #1-8, Satanus, along with his sister Blaze, leads a rebellion against Neron, the ruler of Hell. Plastic Man, as part of a team of superheroes, helps to stop Satanus’ plans and ultimately leads to Neron’s downfall.
The most I know about Plastic Man is that Supergirl once convinced him to turn into a dress so she could wear him to the movies. You’d think plastic wouldn’t be that comfy, but I guess she thought having an infinite wardrobe was worth it.
For those wondering, while that happened in Teen Titans GO to the Movies, that Also happened in the cómics but With Big Barda Except Barda wanted to pummel Plas after realizing she was wearing him
@@ianr.navahuber2195 It's messed up enough for a girl to wear someone as a dress just because they're a shapeshifter. But for said shapeshifter to do that himself, whatever his motivations, is beyond sick.
Although they have similar powers they are not the same. Luffy can only stretch his body using momentum while plastic man can morph his body how ever he wants 🤓🤓🤓
Luffy but better cus everything is rubber he cannot be killed you cut him apart hell rejoin together cant burn him freezing only work for a bit before he breaks out cant drown or suffocate
Hal doesn’t have the highest IQ lol. His constructs are like planes and fists. His standard little blast can one shot multiverse enders like Krona. But his constructs are weak in comparison. Which sums up Hal perfectly. Straightforward simple powerhouse.
How do you know we havent? He can turn into literally anyone. He could have been any other character in any other movie ever and you wouldn't have known.
It would have to be animated, live action stretchy powers just don’t look right no matter how well done they are, just look at the Fantastic 4 movies or even Reed’s appearance in Doctor Strange 2 the powers just don’t work in live action
The ending gag should have been Superman saying “Hal, half of us can fly. YOU can fly.” And then they find out it’s Plastic Man shaped to look like Hal.
Harley Quinn: a former serial maniac and assailant of the Joker. Superman: Yeah, she’s cool. Plastic Man: jaywalked once in his entire life. Superman: GET OUT OF THIS FUCKING HOUSE!!!
Superman: “So, what can you bring to the table then, Plastic Man?” Plastic Man: “Well, for a start I can make Batman’s life a living Hell by screwing up his prep time and all his contingency plans!” Superman: “Welcome to the Justice League, Plastic Man!” Batman: “CLARK, WTF?!”
Plastic Man: "I can scare the Joker by becoming a clown in a box!" Batman: "You're hired!" Wonder woman: Blankly and silently asking: "can you be a voice actress for me?" Plastic Man: "Sorry, I'm not THAT talented"
I Swear that Sooner or Later Heroes that can shrink and Enter your Ass then Destroy in the Inside is gonna become a Reasonable argument for Power Scaling.
Plastic Man may be the comic relief former criminal of the Justice League, but when you really think about it, Plastic Man's abilities are so OP that we should be thankful that Batman inspired him to be a superhero and use his powers for good in the comics
Plas isn’t that OP when you look at like Superman, Lanterns or Flash. Like he’s strong but… in Blackest Night Green Lantern fights thousands of Black Lanterns at once and wins. Whereas Plastic Man is KILLED in one hit by a single lesser black lantern (not a true BL but someone who got turned by the ring). Like Plas is strong, but when you compare him to guys who shake galaxies he’s not all that. Low key why I feel there should be two justice leagues. One for like the god tier guys and another for the more earth focused heroes.
@@wr5488 Black lanterns represent death itself... he was literally shot by "death." Meanwhile, normally he can LAUGH when superman punches him and could suffocate the entire earth if he wanted to by stretching himself over it and smothering it. The guy is CRAZY OP. You can throw him into a black hole and it's just an inconvenience to the guy.
@@Amogus-i6i 1- he could potentially control the microplastics that are in our bodies and violently murder us from within 2- in the same vein he can take himself apart into 69 quintillion pieces of microplastics and invade the entire planet ever microwaved food inside a plastic container? its in your balls
Plastic Man has my favorite super power of all time. It’s a litmus test to how creative you are. You can earthbend yourself, Luffy’s gears, the animal kingdom, guns and weapons, become construction and agricultural equipment, care taker, massager, surgeon, a malevolent shrine, and recreate the rumbling
@@BelMarduksBizarreBazaarhe isn't literally plastic or rubber, just like Mr. Fantastic, hes just stretchy and has finer control over his body and how it stretches.
His body being the way it is means that it is always changing and always improving to better exist in the environment it's in subconsciously. Hence the reason batman said freezing him then smashing him and separating the pieces was only a temporary solution that he had to hope worked. His body would automatically figure out a way to unfreeze itself, it's just a question of when.
1:29 Keep in mind that the Madame Rouge from the 2003 Teen Titans cartoon, who possess a weaker version of the comics Plastic Man’s powers, is STILL one of the top 10 or even 5 most dangerous villains in the entire show thanks to how skillfully, effectively and creatively she wields the power she DOES have. It’s like someone threw Plastic Man, Black Widow and the T-1000 into a blender and wound up with a final product that melded all their most dangerous and complimenting characteristics together. She was only bested towards the end of her debut season because she was jumped by multiple combatants at once in the middle of an all-out heroes VS villains brawl (and even THAT was mostly due to the “Conservation of Ninjutsu” trope at play restraining the villains overall effectiveness in the final fight for the sake of storytelling.) Batman’s concerns here have some VERY solid foundations if we’re being fair here.
When I was 3 or so I thought since toys are made from plastic I can take a plastic ziplock and turn it into a plastic action figure. When I was told it was impossible after creating a huge stash of ziplocks and markers to “transform them” I yelled something along the lines of “BUT PLASTIC MAN CAN DO IT!” I don’t understand the implications of that sentence but I was really disappointed. My first action figure was even going to be plastic man in “his honor” I guess.
The closest thing to Plas from an anime I can think of is Majin Bu (Minus ki and magic) . Luffy Gear 5th has some powers that Plas doesn't have and viceversa.
2:48 bro was a henchmen for the pure evil villain “kite man” I’m disappointed solid JJ didn’t do any research into plastic man when working on this video. FOR SHAMEE!
If injustice and dark knight metal taught me anything never underestimate Plastic man that man broke into a highly advanced prison on the ocean floor after taking out flash and tricking cyborg
Batman's only official plan is freezing him and hoping that stops him for a while, but with Plastic Man's cellular control and regeneration ability, even that might not stop him long term, since he could probably just move his molecules at faster and faster speeds until he heats himself up and gets free. He's genuinely a terrifying opponent if he takes the fight seriously instead turning into a beach ball or hitting you with a comically oversized mallet-hand.
This is the best video entry in the Solid Justice League Like, we get to see how Supes is similar to Bats in his mentality, we've already seen how Flash is crazy from the superspeed thinking, and how GL is crazy with the ring's power
They didn’t even mention that plastic man is just straight up immune to damage. Superman could punch him full power and plastic man would just stretch, retract, and the impact is gone

Well when -God- the writer of this slop (his words not mine) shows up threatening to pull the plug and they stave him off by having her say something... yep, definitely a running gag. 😅

Batman: "Wait a minute, weren't you a bankrobber?"
Plastic man: "Well weren't you meant to take responcibility on how you accidentally made me this way? I mean what better way for me to turn a new leaf than being on the same team for you to look after me?"
Superman: "Wait, you knew this guy before he became like this?"
Batman: "Superman it was before we were in any way critical about how people got superpowers, I mean remember the guy that became both of us, because of a goddamn lightning bolt?"
Don’t be absurd! It was a lightning bolt _and_ a bunch of action figures of other heroes that turned him into both Superman and Batman
Plastic man respect the hell out of Bruce because he gave him a chance when no one else did
Nevermind the Shazam thing!

The Flash skimming the detective work is probably Wally West not forensic scientist Barry Allen.
Nah it's clearly Barry, given the costume. It's hard to to forensics on a guy made of a chemical substance unlike anything else on earth
@@eliburry-schnepp6012 Pretty sure these are made from altered/edited screenshots. Perhaps Wally as Flash did not exist back then and they had to use what they have.
Why doesn't Green Lantern just picture a really, really big rock? Or a cube taking up the same space as Doomsday?
The barrels are yellow, that's why

Thing is Plastic Man has so many ways to end anyones life, can stretch to infinity and can regenerate from a molecular level. They’re cooked if he gets serious 😂
Superman drew the line at Plastic Man jaywalking 😭🤣🤣🤣
lol Plastic Man isn’t remotely that strong. Hes helpless when he’s molecules (a mage blasted him apart, he survived as molecules but was powerless/immobile for 3000 years and went crazy). Hes been one shot KILLED by a lantern before. A demon lord (either Satannus or Johnny Blaze) one shot him too and Zariel (the League’s angel) had to take Plas to heaven so he could recover and not die.
Buddy doesn’t have infinite stretching or molecular control.
@ I disagree. I’m not saying that he’s the strongest ever nor in general. Also, just to be clear, I’m saying he has feats/attributes that make him a formidable opponent if it ever came down to that. His powers are generally only limited to his imagination and temperament, so he's kind of like a power ring personified. His stretching powers have no known limit and can stretch his body to any length or size without constraint. Plastic Man’s body is capable of stretching far beyond the natural limits of human flexibility. He does have control over his molecular structure and can regenerate but the instance in the 3000 years he was immobilized is about the only thing I can agree with you on in this.
I looked into this and haven’t found any evidence that he was ended by a Lantern (though if you know let’s hear it). Also, the closest thing to an “end” was an instance in “Plastic Man No More #1” (September 2024) that depicts Plastic Man slowly melting away due to a Death Ray blast, with no known cure. However, this is not explicitly stated as his end, but rather a gradual disintegration.
Plastic Man was not ended by Satanus in DC Comics either. Plastic Man was possessed by Satanus’ mask, which granted him immense power, but also put him under demonic influence (Justice League #25, 2011). The League managed to remove the mask, and Zauriel transported Plastic Man to another dimension before helping the League escape Hell. In “Reign in Hell” #1-8, Satanus, along with his sister Blaze, leads a rebellion against Neron, the ruler of Hell. Plastic Man, as part of a team of superheroes, helps to stop Satanus’ plans and ultimately leads to Neron’s downfall.
Plastic Man: *I once turned into a Supergirl’s dress.*
Superman: *…………..*
*[This actually happened.]*
It was Big Barda but yeah that was really stupid and OOC
@@eliburry-schnepp6012 Was it really OOC though? Hasn't he had a lot of people sit on him as a chair?
Remember kids, we almost had a Bruce Campbell Plastic Man. He could of used his powers to make a million Boomsticks.
The most I know about Plastic Man is that Supergirl once convinced him to turn into a dress so she could wear him to the movies.
You’d think plastic wouldn’t be that comfy, but I guess she thought having an infinite wardrobe was worth it.
For those wondering, while that happened in Teen Titans GO to the Movies, that Also happened in the cómics but With Big Barda
Except Barda wanted to pummel Plas after realizing she was wearing him
@@ianr.navahuber2195 It's messed up enough for a girl to wear someone as a dress just because they're a shapeshifter. But for said shapeshifter to do that himself, whatever his motivations, is beyond sick.
1:04 This is literally Luffy.
Although they have similar powers they are not the same. Luffy can only stretch his body using momentum while plastic man can morph his body how ever he wants 🤓🤓🤓
Luffy but better cus everything is rubber he cannot be killed you cut him apart hell rejoin together cant burn him freezing only work for a bit before he breaks out cant drown or suffocate
They both like eating sludge 😊
Yes but decades earlier. Like 30 or so years. And he can literally turn into a plane.
He predates lufdy
I like how Hal doesn't think to make a spring himself
Hal doesn’t have the highest IQ lol. His constructs are like planes and fists.
His standard little blast can one shot multiverse enders like Krona. But his constructs are weak in comparison. Which sums up Hal perfectly. Straightforward simple powerhouse.
2:49 this is exactly how he neutralizes a hostile Flash batting out for a tyrannical Superman. Plastic Nervous System.
I think the thing about him turning into a chair is real too, wondering if there are deliberate references?
Green Lantern: "We need a large spring!"
Superman: "Can't you MAKE a spring with your ring?"
Green Lantern: "Oh. Right...."
Why haven’t we gotten a Plastic Man movie yet?!
And he would be played by jim carrey
That would be sick, Plastic man needs more love.
How do you know we havent? He can turn into literally anyone. He could have been any other character in any other movie ever and you wouldn't have known.
@@stigmaoftherose So that would mean... in the Deadpool and Wolverine movie...
It would have to be animated, live action stretchy powers just don’t look right no matter how well done they are, just look at the Fantastic 4 movies or even Reed’s appearance in Doctor Strange 2 the powers just don’t work in live action
i like how there's no exaggeration here this is just canon plastic man
The ending gag should have been Superman saying “Hal, half of us can fly. YOU can fly.” And then they find out it’s Plastic Man shaped to look like Hal.
That's the kind of humour the old SolidJJ would have
@@wowalamoiz9489nah but he still absolutely cooked with this video like ts was hilarious perfection

But why ass?
Plastic Man may be the comic relief former criminal of the Justice League, but when you really think about it, Plastic Man's abilities are so OP that we should be thankful that Batman inspired him to be a superhero and use his powers for good in the comics
Plas isn’t that OP when you look at like Superman, Lanterns or Flash. Like he’s strong but… in Blackest Night Green Lantern fights thousands of Black Lanterns at once and wins. Whereas Plastic Man is KILLED in one hit by a single lesser black lantern (not a true BL but someone who got turned by the ring).
Like Plas is strong, but when you compare him to guys who shake galaxies he’s not all that.
Low key why I feel there should be two justice leagues. One for like the god tier guys and another for the more earth focused heroes.
@@wr5488 such as?
@@wr5488 Black lanterns represent death itself... he was literally shot by "death." Meanwhile, normally he can LAUGH when superman punches him and could suffocate the entire earth if he wanted to by stretching himself over it and smothering it. The guy is CRAZY OP.

Plastic Man has my favorite super power of all time. It’s a litmus test to how creative you are.

@@lolstalgic9602you can create an army, grow them to the size of titans, and just have them walk forward destroying everything
@@yoda2824 Is that what that was? I heard it was from Attack on Titan, but never bothered to learn the details
Plastic man can not do luffys gears. The gum gum fruit and plastic man work in completely different ways.
Mr. Freeze, Captain Cold, and Killer Frost would like to have a word with Batman about his anti-rubber man contingency plans.
plastic and rubber are both flammable as well. it just burns for a long time.
@@BelMarduksBizarreBazaarhe isn't literally plastic or rubber, just like Mr. Fantastic, hes just stretchy and has finer control over his body and how it stretches.
His body being the way it is means that it is always changing and always improving to better exist in the environment it's in subconsciously. Hence the reason batman said freezing him then smashing him and separating the pieces was only a temporary solution that he had to hope worked. His body would automatically figure out a way to unfreeze itself, it's just a question of when.
Ahhh, Plastic Man... my favourite semi-obscure DC hero.
1:29
Keep in mind that the Madame Rouge from the 2003 Teen Titans cartoon, who possess a weaker version of the comics Plastic Man’s powers, is STILL one of the top 10 or even 5 most dangerous villains in the entire show thanks to how skillfully, effectively and creatively she wields the power she DOES have. It’s like someone threw Plastic Man, Black Widow and the T-1000 into a blender and wound up with a final product that melded all their most dangerous and complimenting characteristics together. She was only bested towards the end of her debut season because she was jumped by multiple combatants at once in the middle of an all-out heroes VS villains brawl (and even THAT was mostly due to the “Conservation of Ninjutsu” trope at play restraining the villains overall effectiveness in the final fight for the sake of storytelling.)
Batman’s concerns here have some VERY solid foundations if we’re being fair here.
Another villian with similer powers was ink from batman beyond. She was so dangerous that batman needed help every time he faced her.
When I was 3 or so I thought since toys are made from plastic I can take a plastic ziplock and turn it into a plastic action figure. When I was told it was impossible after creating a huge stash of ziplocks and markers to “transform them” I yelled something along the lines of “BUT PLASTIC MAN CAN DO IT!” I don’t understand the implications of that sentence but I was really disappointed. My first action figure was even going to be plastic man in “his honor” I guess.
So constantly refreshing the yt page for something new does pay off

The closest thing to Plas from an anime I can think of is Majin Bu (Minus ki and magic) .
Luffy Gear 5th has some powers that Plas doesn't have and viceversa.

Funny how GL needed a "human sized spring" so he goes to get Plastic Man, even though GL can literally make one himself.

Why everytime I'm watching a marathon of your videos, you upload a new one? It's fantastic
“The names Plastic Man, and I can beat your ass” -Plastic Man probably
Batman's only official plan is freezing him and hoping that stops him for a while, but with Plastic Man's cellular control and regeneration ability, even that might not stop him long term, since he could probably just move his molecules at faster and faster speeds until he heats himself up and gets free.
He's genuinely a terrifying opponent if he takes the fight seriously instead turning into a beach ball or hitting you with a comically oversized mallet-hand.
You know that he managed to once hold back Furnace which is basically just martian manhunter, without the weakness to fire and psychopathic
A big part of that was the fact that his mind can’t be read since it’s non organic
Do you KNOW how MANY reformed criminals there are in the Avengers?
And don't get me started on the Thunderbolts!

Funnily enough, its not completely out of character for Hal Jordan's dumb, uncreative ass to not realize he could make the spring himself
IQ of a guacamole
Can Plastic Man exist in the vacuum of space? Can he move in 0 gravity? Escape an event horizon. Limited by your own imagination indeed.

They didn’t even mention that plastic man is just straight up immune to damage. Superman could punch him full power and plastic man would just stretch, retract, and the impact is gone

Funny thing is I had a friend who was always jaywalking when we were hanging out, but I always waited and never followed him over the street. I have a good Job and he is an actually drug addict now.
Plastic man my beloved
Something interesting is that plastic man is actually when a Batman’s contingencies for himself
I wonder how Reed Richards over at Marvel would feel towards the extent of Plastic Man’s powers.
Meh. His biggest power isn't that he stretches. It's his brain
He would spend days studying Plastic man's power being impressed by the results.
That old style plastic man art looks great
For anyone curious, Batman's contingency plan for Plastic Man is freezing him.
And even then, it's a temporary measure that can only slow him down.
@thewanderers97 He can shatter plastic man while frozen, or take him to a freezer where he can be trapped permanently.
@@gaidencastro9706 He can reform himself from individual atoms, even in a freezer he'll eventually be able to squeeze out over a very long time
