Shrinking Rae. They may have genderswapped the character but they still get zero character development.

I can only imagine it’s because they’re a well-balanced individual that’s too boring for the screen. I honestly kinda hoped we’d see something for them but it looks like we won’t get anything to really sink our teeth into.

I know that’s hard to swallow but maybe we can chew the fat and discuss what could have been. I don’t want the point to drag-on, but still.

    I’ll be real, doesn’t bother me in the slightest. Don’t really see what they could to to make her interesting if she survived or not. Only standout moment I can think of is when he was snubbed from defeating Mastermind in the comics.

      Theres a scene in the comic where Ray is about to stop a villain that had everyone else defeated, only for invincible to drop a rock on their head and defeats then easily. Ray gives a hateful look to Mark so I thought there would maybe be some sort of jealousy plot, or maybe a fake out death with the lizard league and then comes back crazy, but alas, no

    I haven’t read the comics yet, but from the way you worded it, shrinking ray gets eaten?

    I gotta be honest I really expected Shrinking Ray to expand and blow up that guy’s head and it slowly set in that he just straight up got consumed… It would be dope if she does it in the show to fuck with the comic readers lol.

    I have this headcanon that Ray didn’t die, he maybe got a bit chewed on and that kicked his shrinking power into overdrive and he went microscopic. Now, he’s having quantum adventures with tardigrade princesses in chainmail bikinis and lazers and swords made of bone and stuff.

    I have no idea why Shrinking Rar was even made a guardian by the writers. Why introduce a character onto a central team in the story, only to do basically nothing with them while creating a narrative for everyone else? Seems kinda stupid. Either cut their useless character of give them a reason to exist.

    I’d like to see bulletproof do something! (Yes I read the comics bit even then his powers are so ambiguous besides immortalish minus immortality)
