In the latest Drawing Crazy Patterns, where we spotlight five recurring themes in comics, we examine five times that superheroes came to Reed Richards for help and he failed them.Reed Richards is an interesting character because his whole deal is that he is so smart that he can pretty much do anything, and yet, inherent in that concept is that he really CAN’T do anything, right? Because if he could do anything, then what would be the point of the comic book adventures of the character? There would be no drama involved, as he would just instantly solve every problem. So therefore, he doesn’t solve problems that you might think he would be able to solve.The final storyline of the original Power Man and Iron Fist series involved a recurring character named Bobby Wright, a young boy who discovered a meteorite that transformed him into an adult superhero known as Captain Hero. It was essentially a riff on the whole Billy Batson/Captain Marvel situation. However, as it turned out, the same meteorite that gave Bobby his powers was also killing him.
