Has Electro EVER made a force field?

[long pig]

I've been in a long debate that Electro should and could use his powers to make a force field to protect himself, but I can't prove it.

Has he ever been able to make one before?

[The Fury]

I can't tell you whether he can or not by proff of comic reference.

But I's say he should be able to. depends on how you want to look at it and his degree of control over the bolt of electicity after it has left his body.

I mean he can fire great bolts in a certain direction but I don't think he can control the eletric charge to form a shield around himself, not on the scale of Magneto anyway.

But what he could do is create high voltage charges that repel anything that approaches, in theory, lets say a bullet is flying at him, as it approahces his body, he can release a charge that should repel it away. Same goes for larger objects or punches. It's the same theory that goes with modern real life science and electro-magnetic shielding being developed, I think.

Of course, i could be completely worng.

Well, here recently he has learned so much about his powers that it's simply silly that he hasn't made a force field.

I mean, in a fantastic four comic, he was smart enough to harden the carbon in the air around Invisible Woman to the point where she was basically trapped in a block of solid diamond hard air.

Making an electromagnetic force field should be child's play.

Hmm, why does that sound very very unlikely to me...I mean yes he did it, but how? Carbon may be a metal and so he can channel his electric power though it but to change it's properties as well? And what carbon in the air? There is such a small amount compared to Oxygen and Nitrogen (the only main source being Carbon Dioxide). He'd have to be able to control the movement of carbon as well to move enough into the immediate area to do this.....


...I'm thinking too much....

...Yes if he can do that, then a force field should be easy.

This is how it was explained "Electro uses his powers to create an electromagnetic storm around her. The storm carbonizes the atoms leaving Sue stuck in rock hard electrocarbon atoms. "

This is how it was explained via the narriator "Electro uses his powers to create an electromagnetic storm around her. The storm carbonizes the atoms leaving Sue stuck in rock hard electrocarbon atoms. "

Okay....who wrote that? as obviosuly they don't know what Carbonisation is.

No, carbon is not a metal. In fact, it is so not a metal that chemists call it a "nonmetal".

Hehe, my mistake. :D

My knowledge of the periodic table lacked for a moment there.

I'm sure Electro used a force field to push you away when you fight him in Spider-Man 2 Enter Electro

I have another question concearning Electro´s powers.
Can he fly?

I actually remember that issue, it was one of the very first comics I ever looked at. And the villain in question wasn't Electro, it was Molecule Man(in possession of Reed's body at the time). The guy's got lightning streaks on his face but that's about all he has in common with Electro. His power is to transmute matter in all its forms. I think the story's available in Marvel's "Fantastic Four Visionaries: George Perez" tpb.

[Jared_Humpherys]

The answer is: sorta. I've seen him make something similar on two occasions.

The first occured over two issues in a storyline where Electro drained all of New York city's power, but oerloaded, and couldn't give it back. He was surrounding by a fluctuating field of energy so intense it incinerated Spidey's webbing on contact, and Peter remarked that it would kill him if he touched it.

The second time was similar in some ways. It was when Electro had his snag him.

[Bearpod91]

It would be nice to see and when it comes to "can he do it or not?" it all matters on the writer. If the writer can explain it and make it follow correctly then heck yeah.

I would like to see it happen but I'm guessing it won't show up in any issues I know of spidey.

Yes I have an issue when he flies. It's in Amazing Spider-Man #82.

It was Electro.

I think he uses static electricity to fly. Sort of repels himself off the ground. Which, if that is true, means he could use static electricity to repel other stuff, like bullets, punches, etc. essentialy making a force field..... sorta....

[Gnarl]

I always thought Electros powers were very similar to early Magnetos.
On the other side of the electromagnetic spectrum as it were, but Magneto probably has way better control of electricity than Electro by now.

Electro now seems about the level of Magneto in the 50s or early 60s. Minus the brains.

[Nitmo]

He made a forcefield and flew in the 90's cartoon version of Spidey.
