Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Okay, I'll start with the obvious: our favourite web-swinger, Spider-Man. Which one of the following villains is NOT commonly recognised as a foe of his?

Answer: Dr Doom

Dr Doom is a villain who mostly appears to confront the Fantastic Four. He has had run-ins with the X-men as well. He is the prince of Latveria and is one of the sharpest minds of the Marvel Universe. The Venom, Green Goblin and Lizard are well known Spider-Man villains.

2. Captain America is a iconic superhero, with a very famous shield. What element does the shield contain?

Answer: Vibranium

Captain America was a part of the super-soldier project during the Second World War. His shield, containing Vibranium, is very resistant due to Vibranium having the property of absorbing and releasing kinetic energy. His shield works for him to combat lethal weapons, and he too works for S.H.I.E.L.D.

3. Wrecked buildings, craters, total chaos- just a normal day in New York if the angry green goliath (and scientist in other times!), ___ is around.

Answer: Hulk

Hulk's alter ego is named Bruce Banner. His abilities include immense strength, high jumping, resistance to mind control and a strong regeneration/healing factor. There's no limit to his strength as his strength increases with increase in his rage.

4. A natural hothead, Johnny Storm is recognised by his immortal words "Flame On". What is his superhero identity?

Answer: Human Torch

The Human Torch, Invisible Woman, Mr Fantastic and the Thing together make up the superhero group of Fantastic Four. His abilities include the ability to fly and control fire. The characters Starfire and Blackfire belong to "Teen Titans".

5. What is the name of the futuristic technology that Iron Man uses to power his suit?

Answer: Arc reactor

Tony Stark/Iron Man is also known as the Golden Avenger. The Arc reactor is a self -sustaining energy resource. It gives his exoskeleton armour the ability to fly, shoot bullets, missiles, repulsor rays, manipulate magnetism, etc., and also keeps metal shrapnels out of his heart. Wish I had something like that.

6. The women are not to be ignored. The race of warrior tribes called Amazons produced which superheroine among the following ladies?

Answer: Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman is portrayed as having intense strength, the ability to fly really fast and super strength. She possesses the "Lasso of Truth", which makes trapped characters blurt out only the truth. The characters Storm, Shadow-cat and Phoenix belong to the X-Men.

7. The Caped Crusader, world's greatest detective, the Dark Knight...whatever you call him, his charm and mystery remains the same. Who am I talking about in this question?

Answer: Batman

Yes, it is Batman, whose real name is Bruce Wayne. He is one of the very few superheroes to have made an impact without having superpowers himself. His arch nemesis is named the Joker. He had two apprentices, Nightwing and Robin, and Robin also features as a sole superhero in "Teen Titans".

8. Which superhero was created by Lee Falk, and has the animal companions Devil and Hero?

Answer: Phantom

Phantom is also known as the Walker or Aranyadev (Bengali name, meaning "God of the Forest"). He uses his iron hands and twin pistols to fight crime. Devil is a wolf, while Hero is his horse.

9. Back to the ladies: Which of the following X-Men (or is it X-women?) has the power to absorb the gifts of other mutants on direct physical contact?

Answer: Rogue

Rogue has this sinister ability. In fact, being in direct physical contact with her for long times is fatal. Shadow-cat can phase through solid objects. Banshee and Quicksilver are actually males, and have the abilities of sonic scream and virtually unstoppable momentum, respectively.

10. Now we end with a bit of speed. Who is the most famous superhero with powers related to speed? The answer is, of course, the Flash, but can you name his lady love?

Answer: Iris West

Iris West is the romantic interest of the flash, while Mary Jane captured the heart of Spider-Man (Peter Parker). Susan Storm is the wife of Mr Fantastic (Reed Richards). Iris West is also the aunt of Kid Flash (Wally West).
