In The Tick there’s a super villain named Ms. Lint. In the first few episodes it was established that one of her eyes is made of glass - one popped out while fighting The Tick and she replaced it with another style later. In the fourth and fifth episodes, “Party Crashers” and “Flying”, both of he...

Dumbledore's familiar, Fawkes, is a very powerful magical creature. As we know, a phoenix can have an incredibly long life - we don't know if Dumbledore raised him from a new chick. It's possible that Fawkes could have been alive, say, for hundreds of years prior to coming to Dumbledore. Why woul...

You may have seen this: a new user asks a story-identification question, then a second (also new) account gives the answer (or confirms an existing answer, though usually this deleted and transferred to a comment). There is reason to believe that these two accounts are the same person for one or ...

Seeking a 90s kids series, anthology, similar to Goosebumps but maybe more sci-fi. Can’t remember much, just that it was the first time I’ve heard the term “grey aliens.” I included a drawing from memory of one of the book covers.

Trying to find the anime with a very tiny anime girl. She has long black hair and she is put into a normal sized water cup by a normal sized guy. Then after swimming he removed her and she bites his finger. Then he feeds her something I think?

I have this question, how could possibly Necromancers live today within our world without revealing themselves as Necromancers? Taking into consideration that they have all their accessories and their culture, structures and magic.

In the Breaking Bad episode "Blood Money", there is a reference to an episode of Star Trek in which Chekhov is killed because his stomach is in space. Is this a real episode of Star Trek?

In Season 3: Episode 18 (How Santa stole Christmas) of the rebooted Ducktales, Webby joins McDuck to help Santa Claus deliver his gifts. When Scrooge is delivering the last gift, Webby says to Santa: You and Scrooge are the perfect pair: two red‐coated mythical immortals traveling the world. As...

I read the book around 20 years ago, in german. It's not hard scifi, but a typical young adult book. I think the kids were somehow awakened (maybe genetically produced?) too early, and now have to terraform the closest planet in order to survive. I remember that they all had greek names, I think ...

According to last few episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars (which showed Ahsoka's story arc), it seems that Order 66 happened only few days after Ahsoka left Jedi order. After leaving Jedi order, she went directly to Coruscant Underworld and crashed into mech sisters. Spent one day there maybe....

Order 66 was clear: Execute Jedi for their treason against the Republic. This is what clones were programmed to do, but when Rex received Order 66, Ahsoka was no longer a Jedi. So, why couldn't Rex resist the temptation to kill her? From tactical point of view, Ah...

I found this site today while searching for a book and hope someone can help. When I was a boy I read a hard-bound anthology of science fiction stories. This was circa 1986, but the book might have already been a little old. I can only remember three stories: One was about a man working in space...

We know that Voldemort had a bunch of Horcruxes, plus one soul piece in his body. In Book 1, when he "died" the first time (in Godric's Hollow), the rebounding curse destroyed that one soul piece (correct me if I'm wrong). But he "lived" because his Horcruxes still had living soul pieces. Fast f...

In Alastair Reynolds' "Revelation Space" universe there is no faster than light travel, and so to travel interstellar distances people are put in a form of suspended animation called "reefersleep". According to the Revelation Space wiki: Reefersleep is a state of cryo-preservation assisted hiber...

In Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2, how are two people (Peter Quill and Rocket) both able to seemingly pilot their (Milano or Benatar) spacecraft simultaneously, while trying to flee from the Sovereign craft, after Rocket stole some of their batteries? Only one pilot can fly at one time, yet as ...

I am hoping to learn the title of a short story from Read Magazine regarding a select few members of society to enter survival bunkers and continue the human race. The candidates must choose five items to bring with them into their bunkers. The main character chooses items such as pens and a ta...

There were two times that Enfys Nest and the Marauders seemed to appear at just the right time and place to thwart Tobias Beckett. The first is when Beckett and crew were doing the job with the Conveyex, and the second is when Nest's crew places a tracker on the Millennium Falcon. (Their encounte...

I know that iron man sacrifices himself in the endgame but I wanna know every way to kill Thanos

Given that apple trees don’t seem to grow (or grow well) in the Levant, and that the ancient writers had access to many other options for this important Genesis story, why was the apple chosen?

How would it change the movie and it's ending after that battle? And how the character's reactions would be if Prime killed Bumblebee during the battle?

I read this as hardcover from the library back in the 80's. The story involves and astronaut who returns to earth from a long mission (50 years, 100??) and discovers everyone is missing. The only computer system that he can access is a low level system named HOMER. Homer proceeds to tell the s...

If Harry had died in Goblet of Fire and had been brought back to Hogwarts via the port key, what was Barry Crouch Jr. going to do? Flee? He was the last one to touch the cup ( he offered to put it in the maze) and now all of a sudden it’s a port key with a dead body hanging of off it. I feel like...

spoilers for TCW seasons 5-7 The last we see of Barriss Offee in the Clone Wars is her being arrested in the finale of season 5 for framing Ahsoka. After that, we never see her again, not when Ahsoka returns in season 7, and we don't hear about what happened to her in Order 66. Barriss is never...

I don't know when it was written, but my guess is somewhere between the early 2000's and the mid 2010's. I'm sure it falls into the science-fantasy genre somewhere based on what I remember about the novel. The novel is based around what I believe to be a virus or something similar which caused hu...
