Man of Steel Answers Insight Commentary

3 – Powers Part 1 – Super Hearing and X-Ray Vision


Listen Later

This is the first of a three part series where we cover those abilities, traits, and powers that set Superman part in the Man of Steel.  In this episode, we cover:

* Natural Born Kryptonian
* Kryptonian Codex
* Respiratory Adaptation
* Genetic Memory
* Super Hearing
* X-Ray Vision

While covering our topics, we will discuss and answer the following questions:

* What kind of baggage did Jor-El have preventing him from coming to Earth?
* How could Jax-Ur discover the Codex was bonded to Kal-El from a blood sample but be unable to recover the Codex from the sample?
* How could the Codex be bonded to Kal-El?  Why did the film show us blood cells?  How could that work?
* Is there evidence Superman can use his powers without breathing?
* As a child, who was Clark imitating by wearing a cape?
* If Superman has super hearing, how does he get surprised?
* What is the maximum range of super hearing?  What does auditory omniscience mean?
* Can Superman use his X-Ray Vision to uncover Batman's secret identity in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice?

...and more!

[EDIT: I totally forgot about the interrogation scene where Superman is able to read Hamilton's ID card!  That changed the X-Ray Vision analysis some.]
