The one question that remains unanswered for me throughout comics and movies is this: We see villains like Doc Oc and Winter Soldier who are "normal humans" with mechanical appendages, yet they get punched in the face by super-powered humans, how are these guys not knocked out one punch. Is it just plot necessary or is there an actual explanation.

Thanks, sorry if this is in the wrong area, its my second post

Haven't seen sm2, WS is superhuman.

Bucky is enhanced.

Is Bucky enhanced in Comics and movies? I must have missed that explanation in the movies.

Plot.

Also, Bucky is a super soldier.

They're comic books. Normal people aren't supposed to be reacting to bullets.

@mattbrewhaha: In WS Steve theorized that back in WW2 in the facility where he saved Bucky, the latter had already been experimented on with another version of the SSS which helped him survive the fall from the train in the later mission.

tell that to CW

@_kingoflatveria: I love how if that guy wasn't a pussy he would've caught the bullet

@_kingoflatveria: CW Normal human >>>>> 616 Daredevil in speed

It's a comic book, logic doesn't really matter.

Dock Ock not dying from Spider-Man's punches can be explained by the neural link between his arms and his brain keeping him conscious and his face not getting turned to mush anyway can be explained by the film's PG rating.

Spiderman holding back

Idk good question. Kinda puts Caps powers into question given how Bucky can take so much of his attacks. Same with Doc Ock. Tobey Spider-Man is wanked yet he can’t even put down a normal human with countless hits to the face

I dont know if u know dis but being a human in comics is MUCH more impressive den real life i cant tell how many times fodder being lol at explosions or my personal favorite punisher eating more bullets den 50cent & not slowing down at all

In real life physics, being saved by someone with flash's speed should be a lot more harmful than anything he saves you from.

@theinsufferable: that can be explained by the speed force, which can't be explained.

@darkpsychiclord_prime: Totally convinced

Pretty much. And people wonder why Batman kicks down fully grown trees. Lol like I'm sorry if you were expecting normal humans in comics to be anything like normal humans in real life where we lose our shit from stubbed toes.

I'm not expecting humans in comics to be "realistic". Just didn't know if there were explanations as to why characters like Spiderman who can lift a couple tons couldn't knock out a human with one punch

Plot + Comic Writers not really caring for realism in general. Comic Book Bucky is a "peak human", a fanmade term that for a human with "Charles Atlas Superpowers". Essentially he has inhuman strength, speed, and durability due to "training". Think something along the lines of Dragon Ball Z Earthlings like Krillin, Tien, and Yamcha but without the ability to fly or shoot ki blasts. Bucky is still physically weaker than regular superhumans (apart from the mechanical arm) but compared to real life humans or even most normal (non-hero) humans, he could be considered superhuman by feats alone.

MCU Bucky at least has the excuse of being a supersoldier just like Cap.

IIRC in the comics Spider-Man holds back against Doc (and most of his rogue gallery) so he doesn't do more damage than necessary.

In the movie...IDK, Doc survives things that would kill anybody 10 times over without so much as a scratch. I guess you could blame the PG rating for that.

Is plot dude.

both of them are superhuman
