To be fair, the people who turn into dinosaurs don’t have cancer anymore.

It’s one of those “Would you press the button” questions.
You become cancer-free.
BUT
You turn into a dinosaur.
P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’m pressing that button even if I don’t have cancer.

Peter Parker doesn’t have a leg to stand on in this argument. Dude literally figured out how to synthesize spider silk in large quantities, which is one of the most sought after discoveries in materials science. Then he just uses it to swing around New York City and tie up bad guys. All his money woes would be over with just one licensing deal with Oscorp. His best friend even runs the company so he could stipulate how they use it

He is opening up many “spiderman’s web cleanup” jobs tho.

I thought canon was that the webs disintegrate pretty fast.

Spidey in the next panel: “Can the dinosaurs get cancer?”

But pterodactyl isn’t a dinosaur…
Zorque@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Is he turning people into pterodactyls? Just because he is, possibly because of his own machinations, doesn’t mean he’s turning others into pterodactyls.
Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Maybe he’s lashing out because someone else turned him into a pterosaur when he wanted to be a dinosaur.

Excuse me, good sir/madam. What?
Revan343@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Pterodactyl is a pterosaur, not a dinosaur
P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I mean… He’s not killing anyone or hating anyone. He just turns people into dinosaurs. I wouldn’t hate being a dinosaur.

I don’t think he’s getting consent…
P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Uhhh no villain ever gets consent for their plans? So if that’s the only base, this is the least villainous villain ever.

Can I be a dinosaur too
Endmaker@ani.social 2 weeks ago
Wish granted.
You are now a chicken.
Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
No, yeah… I get it.
Snapz@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
These dinosaurs… cancer free?

Sauron always has clear goals.
Dojan@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
I don’t see how these are equal. Also, they’re clearly both a dinosaur and a person.
And I think I’d prefer to be turned into a dinosaur, too.

That’s exactly how dna works. /s

Your tag seems to suggest that there aren’t genetic predispositions to certain cancers (e.g. BRCA1 for breast cancer). A better criticism might be “that’s not how cancer works” since every cancer type is essentially a separate disease. Cheers.

No its more about the dinosaur thing.

That whole crossover run was pretty great and not very long either

Judging by the state of the world today … I think it’s a better idea to turn people into dinosaurs than in curing cancer

Corporate execs: “is there a way we can speed up the process of turning them into oil after that? After all, dinosaurs don’t have human rights because they’re not human”

Dammit scalies, chill out and leave some DNA re-writing for the rest of the furries.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
I used to think I would be like Spiderman if I had powers/money/genius tech but I changed my mind after seeing this panel.
I also want to turn people into dinosaurs.
theneverfox@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
Honestly? Cancer is already getting cured, but no one will be able to afford it
But dinosaur people? Have fun refusing them or their families healthcare
Maybe turning people into dinosaurs is the morally superior option

“We’re not refusing you because of payment obligations; we simply do not know enough about dinosaurs to medically help them!”
